The ***ALL NEW*** AUSubaru.com.au Forums

Since you mentioned corner lights, this is something I'm working on.

drooooooolllllll Love the way you can fit the spotties into the turn signal area on your bumpers. No chance of doing that here. Been trying to source some of the US spec front side markers, cos they don't have the raised turn signal part. Had no luck so far... I might be able to come up with a pair...

Throttle body was turned 180deg because of the way the linkage operated. Also, the plug for the TPS was different like mentioned above. I believe I had to remove the wires from my original 4 wire plug to fit the 3 wire plug. This was a few years ago so I cant recall what I did exactly. At my age, it...

Just need to have my car thread moved to the correct forum (members cars)

showthread.php?t=14388

Thanks.

Another update, seems like I'm always needing to upgrade something! Now running a 95 Impreza gearbox, so far its holding up ok. Added a Perrin short shifter to the linkage also. Also installed BC Racing coil overs all around, it really improved the handling. http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll95/T...

Just how many members have an SVX or more anyway? Didn't think there were any at all, thought they'd gather elsewhere Me :mrgreen: [ATTACH]597[/ATTACH] I also brought one in from Japan about 5 years ago but it was taken apart Me too, but I live in the US and they are more common. I've had 3 92's, t...

Little update.....blew the 2nd stock trans (fulltime dual range and diff lock) last week, time for a better one. Got a Impreza 5spd that has around 209k on it. Need to mod up a mount and shorten the driveline also. Got some other goodies to go on while it down. WRX front 2 pots, rear e-brake, Perrin...

Yeah, its photoshopped.........but it got you excited eh?

Another major update. My semi-built EA82T finally gave out. I assume the ring lands on #4 piston. So I had most of the parts for my swap waiting and a few weeks later it was done.

Sorry I havent checked in for a while. I added a engine bay shot in a chat thread, but here it is again. http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll95/Turbone/My%20RX/7925746e.jpg The latest dyno sheet, prior to installing bigger (250cc) injectors. http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll95/Turbone/My%20RX/D...

I doubt you would blow a head gasket, that comes mainly from overheating. But its possible you could blow a ring landing off. http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll95/Turbone/My%20RX/RXpistonOops.jpg This is a good read that Disco started over at USMB, it has lots of input from people (me included) t...

The dyno is whp, estimate about a 25% loss for drivetrain so my bhp should be close to 160, with the torque at 171. I'm a stubborn cuss and when others cant or have problems getting something right, I take it as a challenge. Most of my buddies think I'm nuts, but give me credit for sticking to it an...

Been a while since I've been here, followed T'subaru over when he posted up on USMB. Discopotato knows my RX and some of what I know about the EA82T. Just to start things off, I've owned over 40 Subaru's in the last 15yrs, most of them old school. I have forayed into the new gen stuff, I have a 95 I...

I've been working on this for 5yrs now. It was quite a basketcase when I got it. I tried 4 used engines and finally got tired of replacing headgaskets and blowing ring landings off of pistons (oops) and bought a rebuilt from a builder in the States. I've installed a TD04 and WRX intercooler with the...

Haha, he lives pretty close to me actually. We've done a little wheeling together at one of our yearly meets. We live in the Pacific Northwest of the US. Lots of places to go wheelin, lots of mud/water/obstacles, etc.

Wow, and we here in the States complain how you guys in Oz got all the good gear boxes(Libs with D/R) :p The RXII from 87 to 89 in the US had the Full Time 5spd D/R with diff lock. The 4dr RX from 85 to 86 had the 5spd D/R and no diff lock. As far as I know, all Subaru's from 85 and on had P/S. But ...

Thanks, lots of time and $$$$$$$$ invested in my fleet
30 Subaru's in around 13yrs..............mmmmm yeah, I think I have an addiction

Sometimes I drive 2 different ones the same day!

Well, like I said, I'm not a n00b here. I was around when Brett had the old board
Heres a little hill climb I attempted last year at our annual Subaru show (WCSS) in the Pacific Northwest USA.
