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

So since my EA82 turbo build languishes, and I had to remove the carby engine to allow for front end upgrades anyway. Also needed to address a leaking HG. I decided to sort out the worn rings and glazed bores issue. I went from this: http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy349/mission4wd/2015-03-28%201...

Since I have a backlog of pics and info :rolleyes: http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy349/mission4wd/20150513_155103_zpszszj5izp.jpg http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy349/mission4wd/2015-03-07%2010.39.31-1_zpsbfwgvx7m.jpg http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy349/mission4wd/20150513_154906_zpsls...

My specialised tool is not appropriate on this type of website.

There was bound to be some bunny fugger on here that was going to post something to that effect

And we have a winner

When I had the front calipers coated, I took the opportunity to get a few other things done in blaze blue. http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy349/mission4wd/Mobile%20Uploads/20150705_130937_zpsqfhvljus.jpg http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy349/mission4wd/Mobile%20Uploads/20150705_141527_zps0dwk...

Bugger me mate!

Looks awesome! New hub and knuckle or powder coated?

Thanks Bennie, its taken me months to bring all this together.

If its not brand new, its been powder coated or zincplated. So no not new hubs or backing plates just spruced up.

Im chasing nico-leone from a long distance

Also a overhauled Lib Mast/Cyl with a small mod. http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy349/mission4wd/Mobile%20Uploads/20150628_151453_zpsny7t7hxk.jpg And the Kmac strut tops in place http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy349/mission4wd/Mobile%20Uploads/20150628_162406_zps17qnmrnd.jpg http://i806.phot...

Front calipers had holes in the seals and pitted pistons. So since it was a tear down on these I had them powder coated. That was the affordable part. New pistons modified and new seal kit was the costly part of the excercise. http://i806.photobucket.com/albums/yy349/mission4wd/Mobile%20Uploads/2015...

Replaced all almost all the hose clamps (cooling system, fuel line, PCV etc) with cobra clamps

Hands down they do look right for a Fugly

Thanks for looking Andy, was worth a try.

Was really hoping you would say Japan has just restocked its whole inventory on every MY and L series part ever produced

J.

Too me this car, for 30yr old + design Subaru as it is now for track use = aspirational
For a street car = exceptional!

Awesome results there

J.

Yep the aftermarket cam seals are prone to failure. The original seals work a treat. +1 Or at least source Japanese made, in which case just go through FROG. Damn good price at whats quoted. Its a shame the labour to replace them is massive :( Some of the seals,gaskets and o'rings in a gasket set a...

Hmmm, Jelly bean mags on the old Flanders mobile. Might be a bit silly on an L series but right at home on a Brumby or MY.

J.

No good on 22171AA020 all gone Any in the US? Does this include the mother country FROG? 22178AA000 is not a good number What makes a good number mate? :P Maybe its a typo, and might actually be 22171AA000 for example! I may also need these parts too, so a concerted effort by all ;) is whats needed...

I think Im right in saying it just has a bolt going through it horizontally, yeah? What are the sizes of the 'crush tube' and bolt for this original? Yes it is horizontal. I cant locate where I have those bolts. More than likely they are M12 about 90mm long with a flanged bolt head. They will turn ...

Thats some fine info there SB.

I agree with your option #2, And have had good dealings with that particular vendor.
Also FROG is a great vendor and very excellent with experience on parts
Cough cough plug...

I set mine to 10 deg on the carby L series which I felt was conservative. With nothing more than fancy engine pipes, min 95Ron and lots of carbon build up from worn rings and shyte PCV system. Ran great for yonks. Now I have rebuilt the bottom end with standard sizes and 20thou off the deck faces an...

Not sure I have a solution Bennie, but will offer my experience. Some years ago with my L series, I filled her up one day as I do with 3 clicks of the pump, I know the label on the filler door says: Caution When filling the fuel to the tank, do not add more fuel after the fuel filler gun has automat...

I want that set of timing belt covers. They look pristine like some of the other bits on that score of a donor engine you got

So as for performance and longevity, do you plan to provide for an intercooler or water/meth inj setup? Or will this be a by the book period rally car?

J.

Its the way of the world. When you have something you need/want/have made or use everyone else wants it. When you dont need or want it, nobody wants it.
Sooner or later someone will be after your items.
