Im no expert on lift kits but basic principles will tell you that this arangement is weaker than stock. In the original setup the main bolt is fixed at both ends (one to the captive nut on the body and the other end to the bracket) so in order to move the mount you would need to distort both ends - ...

Yep honda lever, subaru used a "push" type as the cables go forward, honda uses a "pull" type as the cables go backwards toward the rear wheels, in order to retain the subaru handbrake lever you would need to either have some funky long cables or do some major work on the subaru mechanism, if indeed...

Yes - honda part is a bolt on to existing backing plate etc. Apparently the story goes that Honda and Subaru used the same brake component supplier in the 80's - hell could still be the case today, I dont know. Anyway, the Honda version on the Accord had the handbrake at the rear which is much more ...

My Rally car has the conversion done, quite simple really. Just disconect and remove all existing handbrake cables and handel etc. remove outer half of rear calipers and replace with ones with hand brake attachment from a mid to late 80's Honda Accord, also grab the Honda cables and hand brake lever...

nope - best to do a driveline conversion and use a lib gearbox with a built in center diff

Im getting worried it wont buff out, major damage done in three places. 1) Impact seperated passengers side engine cross member from chassis rail and split the rail wide open. 2) LR door sill is really bad, major profesional work needed their, looks like the hub needs work too. 3) RH A-pillar and ro...

Yeah - Im glad we were ok to, just goes to show how much differace a 5pt harness, race seats ans a cage makes aye. Both seat mounts bent, both in the same place, almost a mirror immage of each other. They both bent the original mount at the rear of the gearbox tunnel. Seems to be the weekest point. ...

Not really sure what has been braced on the chassis, guess Ill find out when i pull it apart. Mind u rollcages are great at keeping cars relatively in shape - lol From the quick look i had it seems the engine got of very lightly, not even a busted radiator!! I wil run over it with a fine tooth comb ...

No injury's at all, we were lucky that way. I really need to start pulling it apart to see how bad the damage is...
I have already been offered a free shell to cut the roof off if I need to so that will help.

Well... Had a rallysprint on Sunday in the EJ20G Leone that went pear shaped. Basiclly too fast into a very slippery RH open corner, slid wide and boofed the bank with the LR, doing this damage... http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y165/ToyRX/CrashLR.jpg Then the FL droped into the water table hit a b...

If you are lucky you might find some old rally shocks around. Typically height adjustable 35-38mm Bilsteins. Normally would need a rebuild though. As far as camber goes you will need a kit - either a KMAC weld on bolt type for the bottom arm pivot point or if you can get some shocks with small enoug...

With the EJ20 I run in class "E", which is 4WD Pre 92. But my local club does not have a lot of class "E" cars so we run with the class "D" 4WD 92+ cars. Even with the EA82T I would be in class "E". The Sump guard is all a custom job. I built the crossmember which is 1"x2" 3.0mm RHS with 10mm steel ...

L series do not lend themselves to strut top adjustment plates due to the small clearance between the tower and the spring. KMAC's kit gets around this by slotting out the engine crossmember holes where the bottom arm attaches on each side. A excentric (spp?) bolt arangement allows adjustment inboar...

Thought I would put some pics up as I get/make new bits for the Rally car Shes a bit rough (it is a rally car after all!) and planning a repaint around Christmas.

bugger Gus - not good

I have a set of 14" with the hex screw caps from a Vortex, not sure if these are the same as what you have (had!), I can send a photo if you like?

I simply cant believe you rolled that 3 times 8O

I have seen caged rally cars roll 3 times at 100 odd KPH and look a lot worst than that.

Damb man, I hope you brought a lotto ticket

I was going all swooney until they told me they were not putting it into production, now I feel the world has just been robbed of something very special

The RSRA computer was from the factory homologated series 1 RSRA Legacy/Liberty, I have no idea if you guys got this model or not. I dont know all the details on it but it runs different fuel and timing maps etc definitly aimed at getting more out of the engine.

if you dont EJ it your mad

Mine is standard, bar exhaust (3inch GrpA front pipe), pod filter, RSRA computer and it is as good as you can reasonably get a EA82T but much more reliable, oh and fun
