I swear to God I'm gonna burn this thing...... :evil: Sorry for the thread jumping around. Apparently my changing of the HVAC controls was not the fix I was looking for. A/C still randomly works/shuts off/ won't come on in the first place. What are the chances of two control panels having just the A...

Update. Ok, I swapped out the exhaust from the old wagon to the new one. This eliminated the rear cat and the restrictive OEM muffler. Now it's has a catless midpipe with a 2 1/2 inch stainless axleback. Also I threw on new plug wires and cleaned out the throttle body with carb cleaner. It now runs ...

Did the plugs last week. NGK as recommended by this site. Guess I'll grab a new set of wires too, proper maintenance anyways. It's funny (now, anyways) I had an old RX7 years ago and it ran like poo. I switched out everything, carb, plugs, distributor, fuel pump, filter....still ran like poo. :smt01...

It's a manual. Sorry for the late reply, been busy fixing little things. Just changed the HVAC controls, now I have reliable A/C, not hit and miss. Thanks to the boards for that info. Next is to get rid of the freakin annoying squealling noise coming from my IAC valve. Again, tons of useful info on ...

Hot as hell actually. :) and yes....the fog lights are horrific, came with the car as did the two mud flaps. Thanks for the comments! Oh, here is the old car pr...

Hi everyone. Second post, thought I'd show the beast. As mentioned, 1993 "L" wagon, bought from the original owner. The interior is perfect, it is 95% rust free and runs pretty well at 215,000 km. Overall a very presentable ten footer..... I've already swapped the 04 sti suspension out of ...

Thanks, that jives with the general info I got from USMB. Thanks for the information guys. Any thoughts on the relative lack of low end power? This is gonna sound stupid, but I compare it thus: The 96 Brighton has a V8 powerband, lots of low down grunt that dies out as the revs climb, the 93 is more...

First off, "Hi" New to the boards. I wanted to get a clear answer to a question. First a little background. I have a 1996 Legacy Brighton Wagon with the 5 sp transmission. It was recently written off by someone who didn't quite get that "red" means "stop" about two week...
