We have a couple of decades accumulation of Subie spares, mostly L series but also some 82 model parts as well.

Dual range gearbox

EA81 & EA82 motors, had been stored outside so more for parts than restoration even though they were both working when removed from vehicles.

Carby & manifold
headlights
tail light x 1
Brakes
Tailshaft
rear axels
front axels
white doors off a L series, no rust, straight and with windows, no tail gate
starter motor
alternator
king springs
brake master cylinder & servo unit
white synraysia rims from an 82 wagon x 4
rear diff L series
main dash instrument L series
tow bar L series
Possible a bullbar for L series

etc
etc
etc

very very cheap, perefer to sell the lot, bring a big trailer and take it all away for a very reasonable price

How about swapping these L series parts for some Forester parts ????

Had visions of doing same myself today when i found a first gen GT Foz in the right colour, 5 speed ....279,000km and about $5800. Had to look away real quick ......

I like the Forester but it kinda laks the zip the L series seemed to give, The forester is much quieter, smoother to ride in. But I shudder when I look under the bonnet !

G Day Penguin.

I'm just down at Bemboka. Don't want to take the lot sorry but maybe the lights in case I need them later... (hoping I don't ...)

Interested in the bullbar also. Any way of telling if it is for an L ?

penguin · Post by **penguin** » Thu Feb 21, 2013 1:53 pm

I can check the bullbar when i go out to the property on the weekend, then let you know. If I took a photo, would you be able to tell if it was for an L series ?

Esubie · Post by **Esubie** » Thu Feb 21, 2013 2:08 pm

I have no experience in the area and would have no idea sorry.

If you post a photo here maybe a more clever person can help us work it out. Which measurements to check etc.

If we can't work it out online it's not like I'm too far away. If needed I could meet you sometime and see if it fits.

Bump. L Bullbar Penguin ?

Is there really an EA 81 motor or both EA82s? I'm not that far away and shouldn't be interested in any more than your L alternator but because I know exactly where numeralla is and its less than 100k's away i'm keen in the EA 81 motor and L series box (if dual range.
P.S. maybe able to drop parts off to a courier (E-GO) on my way back if anyone else is interested in parts.

Sorry for the slow responses, been away trekking in Nepal for a month.

There is one EA81 and one EA82, the EA81 came out of our 1983 or 84 pre L series wagon. It is not complete had some bits removed like oil pump, water pump, though I have those bits loose somewhere.

Dual range gearbox came out of a 1988 L series, it is dual range, etc. Did not drive the vehicle as we bought it for parts and stripped it, that was the source of most of the L series bits.

The bullbar is SOLD.

The whole lot goes for $200, bring a big trailer as there are some great doors (white) and some panels. Would also consider swapping the bits for some 2000 Forester parts.

Hi Penguin, would you have a working distributor for an ea81?
I live in Michelago and work in Cooma so pickup is no problem.
You have some good panels you say? Who knows, I might take the lot!

penguin · Post by **penguin** » Tue Jul 09, 2013 1:51 pm

I think that I do dave a dizzy, it came off our 1982 model wagon.

The panels off the L series are in very good condition, done have any off early 80 models though.

There should be an email link available if you want to talk more.
