Bent rim repair
Hey all, I have been searching sometime now (over 8 months) for 14" speedy dessert rats to replace the mine and have almost given up. It seems that although my super tough MY series will easily withstand flying in excess of 5 metres through the air and landing on sand or dirt (dirt is scary) but the...

ER27 into MY series??
Hey all, At the end of this year I will have some money (and a workshop) to play with my newest MY Series, for the engine I am thinking something ridiculous like an ER27 running twin EA82 turbos and subsequently rear disc brakes. Does anyone have any idea of the logistics of this? I asked the google...

Where to get/buy centre diff lock

Cheers in advance,

I know that the gearbox that is fitted to it must be a 3.7 but what about the dual range box I want to fit to it, how do I tell what this is?. Some Subarus have 1.0:1 or 1.1:1 reduction ratio, RS Liberty had 1.1 reduction where about the front diff was 3.9 and rear diff had to be 3.545! ...............

Hey all, I own an '83 Subaru Wagon and want to put in a dual range gearbox, as the one fitted to this is from an '81 and single range:(, my question is how do I tell the diff ratio of my gearbox. If it helps the rear diff I have (with the sticker thing still on it) is a 3.7 ratio. Thanks in advance,...

Want offroad tyres
Hey guys, I already know what tyres I want, these being 27/8.5/14 Kumho Mud Terrains, but apparently my '83 Sportswagon will not cope with this without a 4" lift, however, my car is fitted with an adjustable torsion bar and adjustable suspension. Can I just use what is available standard on the car,...

Yarney, When you say I won't have the power to turn the wheels, you do mean I won't have the engine capacity, right? I know this probably sounds stupid but you don't mean my tyres will hit on the subframe or anything like that? because I would really appreciate bigger than that and as the car is fit...

Looking for bigger tyres, need advice
Hey guys, I own a 1983 4WD GL Wagon (EA81), I currently have 14 In tyres on it but, due to being serious about offroading, this does not satisfy me, I am interested in just how much bigger rims and tyres could I fit to this without changing the rotors or anything like that over, if this is not possi...

Hey all, I have a 1983 Gl Wagon with torsion bar rear suspension, my plan is to reposition (wind) the torsion bar as much as I can so that I have heaps more clearance, this is easy, I was wondering if someone would know where I could get a camber kit or if I will need one or not. If anyone has done ...
