Nolathane were making adjustable strut tops when they were trying to break into the damper market under the Redranger name, I've got a set on my wrx and a set for my RX but I don't know if they are still available or made for MY Subaru. Checking their site there is nothing listed but they still have...

An interesting read, has there been any further updates?
Reading the diary of the US owner, well it hasn't ended well.

Bought the RX, actually it's a 1985 Turbo Sedan, in 1998 from a wholesaler who had it on their shop floor for about 2 years. It had about 120k on it, the original AM/FM radio and it became the family car. Drove it everywhere and then it started to overheat, so out came the radiator and a new modifie...

Sammy, $300 freight, far out. How come it costs $1000 to get a car from Japan but your headers cost that much?? What differences apart from the sound did you notice? Did you get it dynoed at all? Andrew That is the only way techworks agreed to ship them, insured using UPS! Not yet as the thing woul...

Where you at?
Of course not, we are talking about an EA82t the mystery engine to all things aftermarket, actually even to most subaru dealers!
It is supplied with standard base maps but obviously they are only guide lines from which to work.

Just if anyone is interested and wants to compare, I purchased a set of techworks headers last year. Stainless with a garrett GT mount and they were $590 Canadian. The only problem was the freight was another $301 and the tax department hit me for another couple of hundred!!! From the few moments I'...

Haltech e6x ecu to ea82t base maps

It's been a long while since I've been on this forum but I remember around April 2006 there was someone selling an awesome white RX in QLD that was running a Haltech ecu. Well I've spent the last two years rebuilding my Turbo sedan and I'm at the point where I've got the everything in, wired up (hop...

Re: LPG conversion - tank location.

I would like to convert my L series wagon to LPG but keep the luggage space. I often transport bales of hay so I cant use up the space inside the vehicle. I would like to keep the petrol tank because I usually change to petrol when passing trucks on the roads that I travel on. Has anyone managed to...

The replacements are a TW equal length header pipe and a gt28! Any pics? Like to see how the equal length header pipe fits for room. I want to do this to my ea82T. I don't have any pics at the moment but I will take a couple sometime in the next week or so so you can see. Obviously it becomes tight...

I've got an EA82t exhaust crossover header and the ihi turbo if you want them. The turbo will need looking at as it came off an engine that dropped a bigend. But if you want them they're yours.
