Yep, its a hobby, a strange one, but none the less, its healther than the pub

Ea 82 wagon auto....story so far, I have replaced shocks genuine sub front and rear with kings springs, replaced ALL suspension rubbers and mounts front and rear.....this was an expensive ex resize, and swapped out a rear k arm with disc brakes, reco rear calliper and fitted new longer hoses to acco...

I'll have a look when I get home in a couple of weeks

Where do you wish for more power in particular....soft sand, over taking? I just had Ivan Tighe cams do a grind on a set of cams for $240...60/20 i think. Cheap and easy to do if your handy mechanically. I am hoping to get more torque down low e.g. sand, I havn't fitted yet as I am waiting for my he...

4000 at 110 kph ? Now, my GLTA sedan ...mpfi, turbo 4WD 3 speed auto had a 3.45 diff ratio up front. Weren't all 3 speed auto 4WDs that ratio in front diff ? If so, would not be 4000rpm at 110 kh ? Shirley ? You can see why a near 4 litre engine cruising at 100kph @ 1600 ~1700 rpm gets good fuel ec...

I thought I'd share my experience of lack of power on ea82 auto. I just thought these were a slug from new(they are). But I just replaced the fuel pump on this car only because I had a near new one on a manual that I parted out. The car ran ok but at hwy speeds but it took forever to get to 110km/hr...

You bloody beauty.....cheers!!!

I am chasing rear disc pad anti rattle springs for a rx ea82 or vortex. Any assistance apprechiated.

Putting my new shocks and springs together, want to replace the stopper on the shafts. Local pedders don't do subaru dealer no more don't stock anymore. Where do forum members get these?

what does the whiteline you have fit....

My thoughts exactly

On a L series wagon, any one has one on, is it worth while, on off road/ gravel roads?

genuine are KYB, and 2 weeks to Alice from Japan. Strut mounts in stock sydney

2 x genuine suby rear struts, 2 x front struts, 2 x front strut mounts ordered through local suby dealer today.......$800, why would you bother with ebay? might get it cheaper, but by the time you pay freight. not worth it.

Check you local parts man, and ask for a discount.

Buy local and save a job.

After running this set up for a while what would you do differently,

if I can get my act together I'll post some photo's of build.....I have learn't heaps off this site , so I should pay back by posting photo's

Toonga.....what rears shocks are you running, I note you have adj. coil over shocks

If I can get my s@/t together I'll do a write up with pics on my rebuild of LSD 3.7 to 3.9. All parts are still active on subaru parts list.....ex japan. Reasonably priced to. Just ordered $100 worth to do my diff . 3 weeks from japan to Alice springs.

Righto I'll look out for that

Ordered a new crush tube (ex japan) new seals, cover gasket, pinion collar, all parts still active on subaru dealer parts list, all for the price less than $100. Local mechanic will help me set up pinion preload and check my backlash for a few beers. That's a little less than $700-1000. Will match u...
