It's sad to see a car company known for quirky, fun cars sell out to the mainstream market. There are now no new Subarus I would even consider buying (maybe an '09 WRX, maybe).

Welcome! What part of VA are you from?

I hit a pot hole while listening to a CD and now will load CDs but just says "error" when I try to play one. I am looking very strongly at the CDE-102 and is probably the one I will go with.

My new Alpine CDE-9872 headunit broke after one month and a half of use but Crutchfield kindly gave me store credit for it. So I am seeking recommendations for a new one. My requirements are: -1 DIN CD receiver -Around $150 -Nothing too tacky or gaudy -Preferably rear AUX input Any thoughts or sugge...

Looks fantastic! Just keep her going strong.

Thanks for the responses guys, I was thinking more along those lines too but I finally figured it out. I was wondering why the sound proofing layer (or whatever the coating is under the carpet) was cracked. I removed a piece and there was a small hole which must be factory because it is perfectly ro...

Took about an hour but I got the headliner off and the sunroof assembly into the house. The sealant under the rails, as was expected, is completely disintegrated. Cleaning and resealing will happen today and will hopefully result in a dry car. I was thinking though, is what makes the sunroof stop a ...

Yeah the rails will get sealed tomorrow so I hope that takes care of the roof leaks. I just can't figure out how inches of water pool up in the footwells. If it is the sunroof where would the water be dripping down, I can't see any obvious spots in the cabin.

My girlfriend and I took a trip out to the Grand Canyon after graduation. All in all the car did 5,645 miles and didn't miss a beat (although it needs a little TLC this week). Of course I snapped a few pics at various locations: Saggy butt due to camping gear: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3642/360...

Well the sunroof assembly is out awaiting cleaning/resealing. The carpet and padding are drying. Hopefully this will cure my water problem, I hate hate hate getting into a damp car.

I'm in the process or running a vacuum line as a snake through all of the drain pipes at the four corners of the sunroof. I can see into the fender on the drivers side where the drivers front tube exits but I cannot see the one on the passengers side. Should the tube exit in the same place?

After a while of driving in heavy rain there will always be a pool of water (often times several inches deep) in the back left foot well which will eventually spill over into the drivers footwell. The water only collects on the floor, the seats and headliner are not getting wet that I can see. I hav...

Clean!

Looks great! I'm so jealous of the manual belts.

Looks great, I love that body style. How quick is the car?

Hands down my favorite Subaru.

I use some black 3M tape from a hardware store. It looks good but it does need to be replaced several times a year. I am going to get around to painting the chrome for good sometime soon.

Got one of these the last time around and I wear it all the time! Quality is very good.

I love my SS because: -It is the perfect blend of performance and practicality -It is unpretentious and unassuming -It has history, heritage and character -It is a simple car-easy to modify and maintain -The camaraderie of the Subaru community ...and above all else it is simply a joy to drive. It's ...

Haha that's wild!

I think it's one of those too good to be true situations. Plus any product that lists "high quality" as a feature is probably anything but. I've always stuck to XtraVisions.

I have an Autometer Phantom boost gauge (Paid around $50). I've had it for a couple of years and have never had a problem.

Boxed up and ready for a new home!

Got mine yesterday and they look great! One to represent on the road and one for the library:

i have a 02 wrx tmic will the metal piping bolt on to this intercooler? if so im intrested... Honestly, I'm not sure. But these eBay kits look promising and suggest the 02-06 piping will match up: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/02-07-Subaru-WRX-STi-Top-Mount-Intercooler-Y-Pipe-Kit_W0QQcmdZViewItemQ...
