I just bought my second '81 Subaru Brumby.
The very last of the old round headlight subies, the first with the 1800 EA81 engine and dual range 4WD.
The new one's on the left, I've had the right one for 3 or 4 years.
I've done some upgrades to the old one over the years. I'll transfer these over to the new one after a bit of resto work.
The new one's in better nick all round.
current/soon to be done mods:
weber carb
massive 14" rally rims
halogen headlights
viscous slippery in the rear
I have a pair of big valve heads I've done minor work on which I'll throw on. Major limit is that ports are siamese int+exhaust.
other planned mods:
upgrade solid disk/drum to vented disk/solid disk front/rear off turbo leone
upgrade gearbox to AWD/4WD instead of current FWD/4WD
still seriously considering:
Eaton M45 supercharger from a mini.
love to but probably won't:
adjustable ride height. It rides and handles pretty well, but would obviously handle better on the road if it was lower. I love driving it offroad/gravel road though so don't want to sack it.
