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

Once I get it setup right it will work fine bennie, just like the EA81 thermo circuits work fine. I'm just puzzled as to why it's not working with the EJ when it's pretty much the exact same setup as the EA using the same rad and thermoswtich plus circuit wiring (ignore my extra relay as that is not...

Looking at the thermo switches online it looks like the thermo switch in my radiator isn't the standard Subaru one. It appears to be made for a Mitsubishi (TFS139, it has flat blade connector not the round one) and therefor it would be 85 on 80 off instead of 90 on 85 off like the Subaru one. This c...

Relay has been checked. Thermostat has been kettle checked with IR thermometer. Also it's installed correct way up. Radiator is in good clean working order. Plenty of flow through it and no cold spots. It's also only a couple of years old. Radiator is well grounded. Fans run all the time, temp stays...

This is something I should know but cannot remember, is the 3.9 diff ratio gearbox speedo gear smaller than the one in the 3.7 ratio gearboxes?

Not sure if this would have an effect but here is my findings on the thermostats and thermo switch. EJ thermostat Dayco 77c OEM 78c EA81 thermostat Tridon 82c Wahler 82c EA81 thermo switch Tridon On 90c, off 85c I'm a bit puzzled how the EJ manages having the thermostat on the input side of the engi...

I did some more driving tests and left the car to get hot without the fans plugged in. Although it is running on only water at this stage the gauge was only half way between the running temp line and the over heat line (which the EA81 used to overheat at) before it started pushing steam out the radi...

Thanks for the suggestions. I tested the switch in a pot of water on the stove awhile back and it appeared to be working perfectly fine. Switched on at around 90 degrees and off at 83 ish IIRC. The heater in the car works well, as normal as I can remember it. Ignore my wiring changes as I had been t...

I don't have an ECU. My conversion is a little bit different... I'm triggering a relay off the stock wiring using the radiator thermoswitch. Before I installed the relay I just used the stock wiring and it had the same issue. The temp doesn't get hotter than 100c in the coolant crossover at idle but...

I've swapped out to an EJ, I've kept the factory radiator, I have two fans mounted on the front of the AC condenser. I'm using the factory radiator thermo switch to operate both fans. When the gauge gets to about 3mm down from the middle line the fans kick in (the thermo sensor in the coolant crosso...

There's some nice gen 3 leather seats in a silver sedan. Not much else at Lonsdale, it's pretty much all imps and libs

Has anyone else noticed that heading to this site through a Google search result brings up a server error message?

There's an LSD in a silver wrx in the Lonsdale yard. Also an l series with a Toyo 720f 13" as a spare.

Did it have wheels? If so what type?

Grey analogue tacho dash in a white sedan at Gillman. It has cracking in the top but the cluster looked good. Also the Brumby the has 4 tough looking 13" steel rims, painted crappily but would look good on a stick height Brum.

I too am dreading moving the contents of my garage. Although we still haven't decided if we're moving in May or not. Well done with the job, best of luck mate.

Seasons greetings and a Happy new year to the lot of you. Maybe 2017 might be the year for my Subaru...

I understand that Subarus don't suit many situations. if i ever get my Brumby going I'll never sell it, plan to build a small shed and store it in there when I don't have a need for it.

So in the past two months I've seen 3 main SA members on here either sell their Subaru or are selling them. what's going on people?! Anyone new on here to make up the numbers!?

Is this all you're after?

I pulled those vents out for you but unfortunately ihad to get rid of the car so I've only got acouple of pieces from it left to sell which i have listed on Gumtree. I might be able to help you out with the other bits with aquick trip to U Pull It though.
