  1. I had thought of doing one as a project few years. They are very light and pretty much have no grip lol. There is a guy that built a racing Justy.. ( I think it was a drag car?) Went very good. Was black. Ive got pics but I cant be bothered finding them lol. The guy spent aload on building it.
  2. It looks ok I guess. I dont like the back. Im fearly disapointed. Was hoping this was going to be the Subaru verson of the FT86. I wonder how much longer have to wait till we see it.
  3. The old news letter had about 4 or so pages I think? Mite have been in PDF format? So will it be monthly or once every 4 months etc?
  4. I used to go to alot of the Submerge stuff. I was on both forums once i finally got the internet. 1st peeps I ever met that where in CS and Submerge was Nic, Hopai, and Oneil.
  5. I remember finding a link to some of the old newsletters CS had. Was a intresting read. Cant remember where they are now.

  7. Well if its what I think it is, It will be the Subaru verson of the Toyota FT86. So will be RWD light weight and possibly turbo
  8. Thanks buddy that really sum's it up,so how much do you reckon a thermostat costs?anywhere between 100-200$?for a subaru im guessing?.. Cheap as chips.. Ive brought them for 10 to 30 dollars. I think my SVX one from subaru cost about 25 or 29. Also got a wee rubber gasket that came with it. I cant remember if that cost. Not much tho if it did.
  9. missionary's Subaru-powered flying car http://www.autoblog.com/2010/10/28/video-faa-certifies-missionarys-subaru-powered-flying-car/ ;D
  10. Could be true. Some times a little knowlege is a bad thing... and common sence is not that common. I know of a few things people had done stuff like that. One guy thought he would be smart to suck out the gas flumes from his petrol tank with his vacuume cleaner. That exploded : My mate thought he was low with oil, Looking down the filler cap. So he filled it right to the top of this plate that sits just below the cap. Started it and oil went bloody every where : Seals went . Car was pretty mint for what it was.. a few days later it went to the wreckers
  11. 134BHP all up. Non turbo EA82 approx 80-90BHP EA71 (1600cc) was about 70ish BHP
  12. Man that 911 looks pretty dam nice Just read this quote... : Subaru did not buy the rights form Porsche.. Subaru did buy the Rights of a newer flat 4 from the Borgward Group when they closed up in the 1960s. They got the design rights from a Lloyd 900 arabella engine and improved on the design.
  13. I rather 3.0. 3.6 fitted with flexble con rods
  14. The boxer motor can dissipate heat very well. Allumium cools quicker. You have have more surface area to dissipate heat. Ive noticed Alot of modern cars bearly have any where for air to go into the engine bays. Some wee inline fours ive opened bonnets on, and they give you a exetreme blast of heat in the face. Dads flat 4 powered car infact runs too cool. Going to have to cover the grill. Strength on the block depends on the manifacture. They can be very strong.
  15. Upgrading reversing lights... Whats the rules for upgrading these? My ones on the Alto are piddly.. I can not see where Im reversing at night. I want brighter ones so I dont end up backing into the letter box or retaining wall etc. Thanks
  16. Are there any of this years Calenders left? I had one of my cars in it. I would like to get a copy for my records. Thanks
