Maybe, but that would be a lot of work.
Debatable if it would be worth it for what you gain.
But with Tweety pretty well sorted and you are looking for something to do ........

Make sure you match the selector forks to the gears.
Many a box has been done where the selector forks "fit" but are too big. This chews out the sleeve on the fork tips.

Yes Tony, time to enjoy the efforts that have gone into this masterpiece.

Some webers have an initial progression stage casting that can be drilled to suit your engine. This is a bit complicated, but it gives good economy and eliminates flat spots on initial progression. A lot of people just put bigger jets in, this solves the flat spot problem, but reduces efficiency/eco...

Weber carbs are very adjustable and can be set to work over a wide range. I had a Datsun 1600, L18 motor, "hot" cam, running 2 x twin 45DCOE Weber's. That's one 45 for each cylinder. Responsive, reasonable economy (relative to how hard you push the go pedal) and loved a rev. A good dyno tune was all...

Tweety now has more power and less brakes, well done

Great to see it seems to be working out, there were so many variables in what you have done.

Good job.

:)Did I hear a rumour that Tweety is chirping!!!!!!:)

Yes, just briefly, on/off, do it a few times, ie imitate a set of points.
Do not short the coil +ve -ve, just on/off the -ve to ground, whilst the +12v is on.

Doug is correct, the true way to read a coil (pretty well any coil) is to measure its inductance. From that you can work out what you really should be seeing from it. Unless you understand inductance and have equipment to measure it, it can be hard to make any sense of it. Nice to do in the "ideal w...

Lower resistance readings can indicate the windings are shorted.
Shorted windings kill the induction field.
Then it no work, as proven by our coil induction specialist, Tony:)

May be able to test it if the DMM has duty cycle.

anyone got ideas on how to test? I have suspicions of the main coil to cap high voltage lead. How can I test that? Pull it out of the centre of dizzy cap, connect it to a spark plug (earthed on the motor), crank. You should get lots of sparks. Or measure it with your multimeter, provided its a stan...

Pointless entertaining US series. Published on Sep 5, 2014 In this extra special episode of Roadkill, Subaru's all-new 2015 Legacy goes head-to-head with three of Roadkill's most famous project cars in tests of agility. Can the efficiency and traction of Subaru's Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive outrun t...

The regulator is inside the alternator, its part of the alternator.
Got a multimeter?

You can change the bearing, on those, but it's a bit fiddly, wouldn't do it unless you have done similar before.

Come on, its a Subaru

Running tappet clearances different to specified, slightly adjusts your cam timing and lobe shape. Most of the time it makes little difference, but to get maximum performance out of it, set it to what is specified for that cam, not the motor. The difference is more noticeable on a new motor, has les...

Not the diff - a worn out second gear in a turbo box. You should know the turbo box's abuse/issues with time. Rear diff stubs/shafts are easy to replace in my mind. I'm keen to see what happens anyway. Starting with a worn gear is not the best, especially with how you are using it. Its nicer to use...

If you can break a 4.11 (unless it was a twisted tooth to start with) you will destroy a 4.44 or the rear diff axles. I have seen quite a few stripped teeth (non WRX) Subaru boxes, a lot of them have had one twisted tooth. You can see the wear pattern on one tooth is different to the rest. We assume...

Lift kits are easy, go 2inch.
