Not yet but its my next upgrade along with the trans mount and bushings like you did. I might also throw some Perrin Shifter bushings in my STI shift linkage just to make it that much better.... If I get them in before you ill let you know!

sounds good to me. tips are always welcome lol

It was a nice day out so I cleaned up both cargo mats that were bought at a local 'you pull it' for my 92 ss and 91 wagon. one was from a 99 legacy outback and second from a 05 forester. Went with the forester mat in the SS as it fit nicely. The legacy mat fit perfect in the wagon.

Here's a couple comparable pictures.

91 Wagon - Outback 99 cargo mat

Nice! I so need one of those car mats!?

Wow incredible fit! Nice score.

thanks!

Damn those mats are awesome! Car is very well built as well. Am I correct in saying they didn't start painting the intake manifold red until version 2?

While the sunroof has been under the knife in my garage, I'd figure its time to take care of a couple small projects.

First up is the fuel pump which has always showed a sign of power loss around sharp corners as talked about in my past thread http://bbs.legacycentral.org/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=45381

This is how the pump should of looked coming out of the fuel tank


But instead it came out with a missing filter like this...


Found it in the second access side of the fuel tank floating lol


Quick size comparison


And finally a brand new Walbro 255 pump & filter


She starts up just fine

Damn....yeah that filter bag shouldn't do that

Second was filling in that ignoring gap between my aftermarket radio and the bin pocket.



91 bracket w/ 1.5 din (top) compared to 92 bracket w/ 1 din (bottom)



All finished

Hey I did that too, added the '91 1.5 din box. Also, if you wanna sell the 1 din box I do know someone who would more than likely take it.

looks perfect!

Holding the old bin just in case I go back to the oem radio. I got a couple other things I plan on putting in. Thanks for the feedback guys.

Seems my radiator has come to an end, found a large puddle of coolant under my car. Not to bad for 265k miles

Currently Looking at Mishimoto's full Aluminum MT or Koyo's OE style radiator but don't care for Koyo's solution creating the AT/MT into one unit for the turbo SS as I don't want the separate transmission cooler. Any input on either of them?

Ok what? 91 had a 1.5 din box? My 91ss has a 1 inch din.

I put my radio below the din box so i could still read it with the cup holder out.

I snagged the 1.5 din from a base model legacy.

That is a common failure point for the plastic radiators.

Plan on going the Mishimoto route. is there anything else I should do? I'm thinking upgrade the water pump to the WRX so I install my oem oil cooler, timing belt, front seals etc.

Josh, did you run the stock thermostat or wrx when using the new style water pump?

Stock thermostat

Placed a big order for replacement parts including the thermostat, Thanks Josh.

Radiator Update!
Last week I received my Mishimoto Aluminum radiator to find out it was damaged. The vendor I ordered from is sending me a replacement straight from Mishimoto and should have it by next weekend. The plus side is that they dont want this unit back so I'll either fix it, keep as spare or give it away

You can give it away to me if you'd like.

I'm running an n/a radiator on my tleg. And would love to take this off your hands. I'll pay shipping, and give you some cash?

Got my replacement from Mishimoto yesterday along with some more subaru parts. I'll deff keep you guys updated if I decide to give the radiator away.
