I looked at mine again, the one on the car. It is white. Sorry for the confusion.

The old one I pulled off looked white too....maybe it was already updated??

Who knows.....I still have hesitation issues though.....grrrr

Just to clarify,

The old sensor is the white connector. The new one is the grey connector.

The early MY turbo's were 3.90. I'm not 100% sure about the later ones......I hear some say that they remained 3.90, and some say it went to 4.11.....and yet there are still more that say there are a mix. But the info I have from the FSM says that the turbo had 3.9 up to 93....assuming the FSM is co...

je parle un petit pu (I don't know if I got that all correct... )

It's been too long since I took french in high school.....

What were you doing when you got it that muddy.

I don't remember if you mentioned it before. I know you said you got an older soob stuck in the mud at a construction site.

hey dave, glad to see you made it over......

You get that power steering weeping problem fixed?

I would probably go ahead and bleed the MC.

What I would do is crack the lines on the MC a little, and try and work some air out. If it looks good....continue with rest of the system.

Drive for a week or two....Then re-bleed the brakes.

The axles are the same!! Regardless of of whether it is turbo or not. The only difference you're going to find in axles is between the FWD & AWD cars. The FWD cars have 24mm dia axles, while AWD cars have 22.2mm dia front axles. You can tell the difference. The FWD axle will have three identific...

hmmmm.....I'm sorta out of ideas. I would like I said....get the O2 replaced......reset ECU.....& do active diagnostic.......see if anything else shows up...... You said it's intermittant correct? Those are the worst ones.....I had an intermittant stalling/loss of power for about a year or more....

That's a very interesting legacy........to say the least.

You can see just barely.....he had the rear fenders flared out. Or at least that's what it looks like to me.

Here's the diagram & adjustment procedure I posted over on i-club

Well......I would try and get the O2 sensor working again......and fix any other sort of problems/codes that are showing up.

Maybe do the active diag connectors. See if anything comes up.

Does the car lose power and try to stall, or does it just hesitate very badly?

using the syn motor oil is pretty much ok on high mile cars.......I would not recommend switching back and forth. That is what is going to cause your leaks. Syn oils use a different type of seal conditioner polymers & such. Switching back and forth is something I'd advise against. Use one or the...

thanks for the link. But my windshield has pretty much been sand blasted in a dust storm. So there's ton's of little tiny chips. It's not worth fixing. I'm lookin into a new windshield. I think my insurance deductible is like 200 bucks & a good windshield is like 300. I could get cheaper, but th...

Bill's right on the money with where it is. It is definitely sorta hard to find if you don't know where it is. I don't even know if I can get a picture of it. You'll have to feel around with your hands to find it probably. I'll look through my manuals and see if I can find any pictures or diagrams.

Sounds like the brake band needs to be tightend up. There is a small nut that has an allen bolt in the middle......I think it's an allen bolt. Anyway. You need to loosen the outer nut, then tighten allen slightly, maybe 1/4 turn intervals, and see how the tranny reacts. It is located on the top of t...

The motor has more displacement then say the WRX.....so the amount of torque is going to be more......which is why this motor is such a good platform for monster motors.....

I would personally follow the FSM's.......give the subie dealership in your area a call....see if the techs know.

Some comments on your ideas. Plugs....like you said....swap out those bosch plugs. If you don't mind chaning them on a regular schedule......just put the standard copper plugs in, and set gap to manufacturer's specs. MAF.....I doubt the MAF would have any things to do with this.....is you intake tra...

yes they should work fine

Well....that is definitely the O2 sensor code.

What happens if you clear the codes........does it come back?

Have you tried running the active diagnostics.......with the green connectors?

May be worth a try.

I too would highly recommend the yellow top optimas.....great battery......my one uncle talked me out of it the first time around.......after that battery went dead in a year or two......I said screw it.....I want the yellow top.....got it from summitracing.

It is not bolt on.....and actually quite a pain from what I remember people talking about it. Check out the legacy forum on www.i-club.com I believe someone has done this conversion, do a search in the legacy forum and I think something will pop up as to what type of problems he encountered.

Oliver,

Glad to see you made it over to the new board.

Car is looking good, and you've got quite a few good looking legacies on your site

MRT makes one that is supposedly not too loud and has twin outlets. I think it's 180 or something like that.....don't quote me on that price. But that is the whole axle back unit.

I've been waiting for quite a while.....hopefully in the next 2-3 weeks I'll have it.
