Hey Toonga, Its a by pass hose used on the xt6, mine had a little leakage and the hose clamp was fully tightened up so time for a new hoseTOONGA wrote:whooo hooo grease oil and brake dust how much fun can you have in one day

I myself have a spare set of those rear brake pads for my brumby the cost a whole 16 dollars shipped from England of all places
is that a heater hose I see on the table as well?

It has been more expensive than i first imagined. anyway i hope the result is good.
It is near complete. just need to put on the inlet manifold, timing belts and new clutch in.

Sweet! pics,pics,pics:Dsomeguy wrote:New gear for the L over the last couple of months
New driveshafts
Rally competition steering wheel
New head unit and speakers
Central locking
Tachometer and vacuum gauge
Had a 2.5" exhaust through to a 5" canon but it was too loud for city driving so I installed a center hiflow muffler to help back pressure and lower the db without loosing the boxer rumble
Guys, we need $3200 to import it plus any customs duty Hey H-Top, no its not standard, its part of a "Boss" lift kit ( Bill Olberman Subaru Specialties) as I recall, a usmb guy.H-top wrote:Is that the standard diff hanger?
Looks different to mine?
Hey Jonno, Brembo is oem for subaru xt6's and also current wrx's etc. I ordered the parts locally, and they can tell me wether they are oem or after market, and have pics also of their products, the PBR's where a brand I didnt recognize but the compound I was after, got a kick out of the Kangaroo on the box:). I dont mess with low dollar aftermarket, not worth the minimal savings when compared to where I live vs where I work.steptoe wrote:Mark, did you order those PBR (Patons Brake Replacement ) bits from Aus, or are they on the shelf in the US? Recognise Bremba as being high performance brake components, CRC spray cans and those little brake pads box for the rears
The front timing marks - are they in the timng belt cover plastic, not a bolt on ponter like Vortex turbo 4's
What have been doing?
*Checked and machined EA82T heads, cleaned out inlet tract, bolted it all up, quiet first up, then water added, now making steam again - off for discussion with the long time machine shop guy.
*apply chemiweld as per phone instruction from Goss,
* Also have carb EA82 block (188,000 + regular overheat due to previous owner) turbo heads waiting for cams install planned as LPG in Brumby trial with better breathing but due to above may just turbo this 9.2:1, 10 DBTDC and se how it goes in the GLTM
* scrapped a rusted out EA81 block $4.50 cash from scrap yard !
* mental lst of things to check , clutch cables to avoid unexpected delight, bleed more brake fluid as maintenance
Mark, you set a good example here - preventative maintenance
PS, in the process of finding somewhere you can store the XT6 on the east coast so you will feel at home in LHD car when you make it over here, then you can drove over to WA to let Julian have a drive
You did well on scrapping the engine block, I put this out on the street today to get it hauled away...for freesteptoe wrote:Mark, did you order those PBR (Patons Brake Replacement ) bits from Aus, or are they on the shelf in the US?

It's always nice when you make something up from scratch and it works!

Cool! Nice when things work as they should, and I believe this is something a true enthusiest does the best he can to achieve. The beauty of a thread like this is that you dont have to be doing a build thread and spending hundreds or thousands of dollars to post about your car, and other enthusiests are interested in whats happening with others Subaru's also, Keep the posts coming:)GTlegs wrote:I put in a starter relay today. Now starts 'on time, every time' haha.
