OK, I've had a look in both the left and right front door sills and.. errr...no plate!
Is it hidden under the plastic kick guard thingy, perhaps?
Josh, I'm assuming you mean the sills on the car body and not under the actual doors themselves, right?

Thanks guys, as usual you both come through with the facts. I'll check it out.

Josh, Thanks for your feedback. Quick couple of questions, how do I determine from the my chassis (vin) numbers etc. what month and year the car was manufactured (as I understand the JDM model years precede the US models by at least 6 months), and how have you determined the part number has the 150 ...

For my 1990 JDM N/A Legacy Chassis (vin) number BFA-008316 Engine Number EJ20 DDW1BE I know you guys didn't get this model in the U.S. but I thought someone might have access to parts catalogs with Japanese model part numbers. There is confusion at my New Zealand dealership whether the part number i...

Apparently Leggy's all let go there, eventually. I had owned mine two days and a crack opened up right at that spot and dripped stinking green coolant all over my driveway (SH!T, methinks, let the $pending begin :evil: !). The radiator shop boss that replaced the plastic end tank on my car says they...

I have been trying to sort some frustrating hesitation niggles with my car. Little by little I am seeing improvements and I have to say this forum has been a goldmine for info and advice. So thanks guys. 8) :idea: I have already done the "basic" grounding mod of heavy gauge cable to left +...

OK then...right...

What about the ECU itself? Is there anything to be gained from improving the ECU's ground to chassis? Anyone tried it :?:

I have replaced all 4 sets of pads on my 1990 JDM Legacy wagon, and bled the brakes so the M/cyl, lines and calipers were flushed. My question is, do you bleed the ABS unit itself? I see two bleeder nipples on the top of the unit in the engine bay, and to completely flush the system of the old (mois...

Whoa...I just read back through some of the older forum discussions, (probably should have done that first, I guess) and it sounds like this hesitation thing was a Subaru factory option!!! This weekend I will check if I have the original knock sensor and check the error codes too. Is the best way to...

Thanks for the advice. I should have mentioned it is a 1990 Japanese Domestic Market Legacy, and it was imported into New Zealand in 1996 so it may have a different ignition system to US models. Sorry about the newbie questions, but where is the ECU located and how do you perform a "ECU error r...

Hi all. I'm hoping someone can help me. I live in New Zealand and I have just bought an 1990 Legacy 5 speed wagon with normally aspirated EJ20 4 cam motor that's done 143,000 kms or 90,000 miles. Very happy with this car, other than a moderate but noticable engine hesitation/miss under heavy load, m...
