Phiz's 87 Brumby, Bernadette

Post by Phizinza » Tue Jun 02, 2015 9:22 pm

I don't think I'd posted a thread about my latest "ride" on this forum yet.

Now I'm lazy, so I will just be posting a link to the details and pictures on another forum http://offroadingsubarus.com/forum/index.php?topic=1247.

It is an 87 Brumby, came with 15" Superlites which I sold to a member here. I will be running steel 14's. It will be getting an EJ25 which I am grafting a Weber to. I have an EJ gearbox with EA82 internals that is PT4WD. I have some long travel shockers for the rear, which will give me the same up travel (compressed length) as factory but an extra 3 inches of down travel. I will also be building some long travel front struts with softer springs. In doing this I will be lifting the front (dropping the engine and gearbox down) To match the longer struts.

I painted the car after fixing the dents under all the bog under multiple layers of paint. Used Urethane two pack paint.

I've fitted some 01 outback seats for comfort, and installed some other bits and bobs in the dash.

Any questions are welcome here, I just won't be doubling up on posting images and details etc.

Cheers,
Phiz

Sorry, noticed the attachment images didn't show for guest people on OffroadingSubarus.com, all fixed now. You should be able to see all the pictures now without signing in.

Looks good especially in letterbox red :)

I like the adaptor for the dizzy ... does it seal properly? as I couldn't see an o ring in the cut away / mock up.

Nice work with the cam as well, I want to see this working as it has given me quite a few ideas.

any chance you will make a few of the adaptors?

The distributor has an o ring and the adapter will be rtv'd to the head.

I could possibly get more made.
