Re: problems with wrx trans fitting into my 91 SS

That doesn't sound right but are you using the stock dp or a wrx one? Regardless I don't see how it would hit it.

Re: Mesoslow6969's 1994 Touring Wagon EJ257 swap

If I had those parts and they were all legit 54k id just drop it in and drive away. Than wait till 100k for the timing belt/wp/idlers etc. ewg is probably a waste of money too on just the vf39 than again the stupid wastegates crack.

Hmm than yes you definitely need new glass!

Better off just using rain-x so you don't need wipers.

Re: Windshield Roughness Repair

Are you sure it's not grime? I think on my older legacy I went around the entire windshield carefully with a exacto knife blade at a 45 slowly until it would run along nice and smooth. Then use some wax to make it extremely smooth to the touch and clean any residue with some invisible glass THAN I p...

Re: What octane grade does she drinks?

Yes it's possible I think it's a indication that carbon is ontop of the piston which increases the compression ratio therefore the knock sensor possibly picks up some knock.

Id check out your knock sensor for cracks!

The 99 f150 might be ok there a pos but honestly at work we have many not 5spd but they last a while! Decent fuel economy too.

Re: WRX Momo wheel

So it would be possible just to remove the air bag light and never plug the charge in. But that wouldn't be very safe. That's what I would do. I'm not sure exactly when airbags were improved, but the early ones were sometimes more dangerous than no airbag... I have an STi wheel in mine, but I never...

Re: WTT TD04 wastegate actuator for VF11 one

Remember though from year to year they have different size restrictor pills so in some cases wastegate boost was dependent of the restrictor pill.

Re: Mechanic replaced Timing Belt on motor that had broken

98 2.2 is interference afaik. Pretty sure its 89-95 legacy that is non interference. Again I am sure there was a bent valve and the engine running with a slightly bent valve will cause failure in that head eventually and this is what you found! They are making the assumption that ALL 2.2's are non i...
