My next goof-off project:

My plans are just get it running right and beat the ever loving snot outta it. If I can get it making enough power that it won't just be in everybody's way (it's a complete dog right now, but it's also running poorly on 6 year old gas) I'm thinking of RallyXing it. Oh, it's a '79 Subi 4wd Wagon for those that don't know. 1600cc flat foor and true 4wd (not AWD).
As for Samis, they can be LOTS of fun and will go so much further than you can imagine w/ some basic mods. Here's how I used to wheels (friend's rig, I was full-time spotter/right-hand-man)...

We made it up the "famous" Tank Traps in Hollister Hills on probably the smallest tires ever: 30x10.5 SSRs. Mods are pretty basic: Spring Over, CJ Front Springs, 4" Lift Sami Rear Springs, 4:1 T-Case gears, Lincoln Locker in the back, still open in the front, "Revolver" Shackles and really, that's about it.
