Alright, thank you.

That's more than I knew-

Figured I might as well look into it if I had options.

MT and nothin' but my man-

I wouldn't have it any other way.

So with that considered, what would be the absolute, top desired manual transmission for this '94 FWD?

I have a '94 N/A FWD Legacy.

Many, many miles.

I have a N/A 2.2 with 50K to swap in whenever I please, however I want to swap in a tranny at the same time.

I cruised BBS-


My question-

Any EJ series trasmission will swap up to any EJ series engine correct?

I'm keeping my car FWD-

What would ...

Interesting..... I didn't picture that.

NGK, never have had a problem.

Well once, but never leaking.

Maybe your cat could use a cleaning, or perhaps a new cat.

I am finally in motion.

I can move about the forum.


And don't forget your winter tune-ups. Plugs, wires, check your radiator temperature holding capacity ...

Alright asc, I'll give ya that lol.

Specialists. Gratci.

Dang 777, that is a nicely put together setup. Hand-crafted by the Australians lol, they've got Whiteline and CES, they're doing something right.

And I was sayin' AWD was wrong. But I know I can go crouch down behind my Subie right now, and listen to it's waffley exhaust. I realize that if it had ...

Good stuff.

There's some knowledgeble guys on this here site, plenty of automotive and Subaru specific intellegence.

It's going strong, and unlike the economy has not tanked.

Happy birthday.

First off Dynamic Entry, those are some very nice pictures of your exhaust. Very nice set up. It's not that money's too tight, I just don't know if I could afford a complete cat-back setup. So I was thinking just delete the resonator and run the piping from that flange back.

The sound that Subarus ...

You're talking about money being tight. Calculate your expenses to get a breal good gauge of how much you'll need over the next year and a quarter.

If things will be too tight, in terms of practicality keep the GT. You're in school, you know the SS will cost more in the long run. I think it would ...

Alright good stuff, good stuff. I like what I'm hearin'.

a good piece back someone posted a video of their magnaflow muffler. I remember it because it was the only one that I have ever thought beat the CES exhaust note.

not sure about N/A exhaust dynamics sorry....

-Legacy777 and Dynamic Entry ...

I just hadn't thought of MRT for a muffler.

MRT huh, I'll remember that.

Do you think not having the resonator will deepen the tone at all, or just make it raspy?

I don't know man, any noise other then engine noise would seem bad to me.

I don't think any popping is good.

...Unless you're talking about that popcorn popping noise you can make cars with headers or without mufflers make.

That.... "Baa-bi-dah-baa-bi-dah-bah-bi-dah" noise you get gearing down ...

I remember some time ago having this exact problem, exact.

After much investigation, it ended up being a faulty spark plug wire.

Just one of the wires was inconsistently shooting electricity down the side of the terminal rather then going through it.

I'd recommend removing all your plugs and ...

The very best hydraulic lifter cleaner is Marvel's Mystery Oil, it's a red bottle.

DO NOT MIX REGULAR AND SYNTHETIC OIL!

Could be an air pocket.

You say you added coolant twice though? And found no leaks?

I know blown head gaskets don't cause infrequent overheating, but where is that coolant going?

I might side with ASC on this one, it sounds like every now and then something is clogging, or keeping the anitfreeze ...

At the end of the month I'll be having the resonator on my N/A 2.2 removed, and from that flange back will be 2 1/4 inch piping leading to a sporty muffler.

I already have a nice intake.

The question-

I want that throaty sound Subarus are known for, I want the tone of the exhaust deep and low ...

Yeah, radiators might be a little tough to find under $100.00, I'd find a junk yard too.

Might I recommend LKQ U-Pull It

If your engine's become somewhat "sputtery" upon acceleration, it may be time for a filter change.

Also when you actually do change your filter, empty the spent filter of all it's gasoline, and compare it's weight hand-to-hand to the new few filter. -If it needed changing it would have extra weight ...

Hmm... All these different view points give me a lot to think about!

I live in Oregon, very close to Portland, so in the Summer it's never too incredibly humid. Not very often does it reach 100 degrees.

I lived through this last summer without it, hmm.

With everything thought through- I think I ...

Thank you guys, that's all good info.

I think I will take out the system, gives me something to do in the garage on a day like this.

You're very right, that's good input.

And you're also right, in that the A/C parts only weigh so much. My car is not a race car, but that doesn't mean I don't do everything in my power to make it a stronger running, more powerful car.

I just made it through this summer without my A/C, and frankly ...
