    I'm back, this time with a lifted 2002 Subaru

    I also built a new rear deck. By pulling out all the foam and old rear deck and spare tire cover, I could utilize the space more effeciently. I carry a 1.5 gallon jerry can and few fire extinquishers up top, but otherewise, I try to carry everything else under the deck. I have an LED light...

    These next two photos show the air compressor in the engine compartment. I use this all the time to air down tires both off road and in the sand. It's a lot quicker to air up these tires than my old 35s! Lol. You can also see the AGX struts adjuster in these photos.

    I'm back, this time with a lifted 2002 Subaru

    I added two volt meters. The first one is the obvious volt reading of the car electrical system, but the 2nd one is very special. Its kind of hard to explain in short, but basically in the Subaru auto transmissions there's no center geared differential. Instead, there's a transfer clutch that...

    The center gauge pod has from left to right... Auto transmission temp - Engine Oil pressure - Engine Oil Temp. Love these gauges! They have user programmable warning lights and buzzers also Also, with my auto transmission shifter and gauge cluster mods, I lost the gear selector...

    I'm back, this time with a lifted 2002 Subaru

    I like red gauges and I ended up doing an STI gauge cluster swap. This is pretty popular for Imprezas and WRXs, now that enough STIs have been wrecked and these clusters can be found for somewhat of a reasonable price. I actually went through a couple of different clusters trying to do this...

    AGX struts and King springs. These were a bit spendy, but worth every penny. I couldn't imagine a better set up, although I know there some even higher end struts out there and of course some folks go with coilovers, but I'm really loving the adjustability of these struts. Pop open the hood...

    I'm back, this time with a lifted 2002 Subaru

    Here's a quick photo of it with the new lift, but old stock size tires. Just like with the Toyotas, when upgrading to a taller tire, there's some gear ratio issues and loss of power. The stock tire size is 205/55R-16. I went up to a 215/65R-16, which is a 2" taller tire and about 1"...

    I'm back, this time with a lifted 2002 Subaru

    Skid plate could be something as simple as cutting out a sheet of steel or aluminum and bolting it to the bottom of the car. The hard part is finding a brush guard or something along those lines. I'm really happy with my Gorilla Off Road set up as it bolts to the bottom of the frame and gives...

    I'm back, this time with a lifted 2002 Subaru

    Some of you might remember me for my 1989 Toyota SAS pick up and then later a 1995 Toyota Land Cruiser 80 series. Man, do I miss those vehicles. I sold the '89 to buy the 1995 and spent a lot of time and money decking it out and taking trips, but unfortunately financial reasons forced me to...

    Did I Find The Holy Grail Of The 80 Series ?

    Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on whether your buying or selling) the prices for 80s have come down dramaticly. So I would say less than $10K as well, but these are very rare vehicles. VERY few were imported and even less have fewer than 150-200K miles on them. If it has under...

    Timing Chain Replacement 1FZ

    If the owner formerly ever had a 22R series truck, he might be hearing ticking or rattling that indicates to him in his mind that the 80 needs a new timing chain, based on his prior experience, but as mentioned before, the timing chain system on the 1FZ is MUCH better designed than on the later...

    80 Series vs. 4th Gen 4Runner. Thoughts?

    We rented a 4th generation 4runner with the V-6 to play around in a few years ago for a few days. Even with the V-6, it had gobs of power. Drove pretty nicely. Took on some fire roads and it became real apparent how little ground clearance it had, even going over very minor twigs in the...
