Our headlight lenses are plastic and prone to developing a hazy oxidation- kind of like automotive cataracts. If I'm correct, the European lights are glass, and likely have better beam pattern.

I have a front skid plate for a GC made by Primitive Racing. It appears that some of the front mounting bolt holes on the plate need to be drilled at a different location to mate up with the holes on the car. I have drilled and mounted yet. In short, any GC Impreza plate you find -should- be able to...

I just got my liscense and sort of inherited my sis's 91 legacy wagon. I have a question about selecting between "D" and "1", "2", and "3". Whats the difference between just driving in "D" and the other selections? Does it hurt the transmission in n...

http://204.29.203.98/~mtk/posts/adapter.jpg There are bushes in this part. In my original shifter, still on the car unfortunately, they are totally deteriorated-- gone. To the point where metal to metal contact between the parts has caused further wear. I can't explain how bad it is. If you don't w...

yeah, they're the same size. You could buy the kartboy shifter bushings MK It may be that the large bushing is the same size, therefore you could use the kartboy. But I think there are other bushings in some of the other joints in the linkage. I know the linkage side of the adapter piece is a diffe...

Brake shoes can wear a groove into the surface they are supposed to contact. The shoe self adjusts to maintain proximity to the contact surface. At some point this can cause the shoe to ride below the level of the unworn part of the contact surface, tending to lock the parts together when you try to...

Did you put the exhaust on after your trip to the dyno?
If so, it would be interesting to see what resulting curves are.

Thanks, guys. By the way, that kit is available on www.subaruxtras.com for $6! Includes the wiring harness, relay, two outlets with covers. Bargain.

ah damn, you live semi-close by? I made a thread a few weeks back about the dyno day. I was definitely a hit, the impreza guys loved my car. MK Oh yeah, I'm in St. Louis. I know Ron, John, and Mike. I've been to the shop many times, but just have not made the trip to the dyno location. I totally wo...

Check out my new power outlets installed in the center console... http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/ultrasonic@sbcglobal.net/detail?.dir=/af10&.dnm=c2ea.jpg I used Subaru part number H6710AC000 Multiple Power Socket, which is really for BD Legacy, I think. The kit is supposed to mount in place of...

If I had known you were going to Axis, I would have made extra effort to drop in. Gotta represent the old school turbos.

Does anyone happen to have a picture or a diagram shot of the "Adapter" that is needed to make the WRX shifter fit into the Legacy Turbo? I have taken my whole shifter linkage apart... except for that "famous" pin (inside of a pin), which doesn't want to come out. I think that I...

he doesn't freakin speak english as a first language, how hard is that to understand? :? imagine how your spelling and structure would look on a german bbs. :roll: give the guy a break. Hey, break given. No offense intended. We all know people who write that way on purpose, it was just frustrating ...

wow vrg3 u are good, so if i change it over to that map sensor what will it do, does it give you more gas more power. i red all your right up but i ant good with electrical so if i dont make cents let me no. Nico... do you spell that way on purpose? It makes your posts really hard to read, and it m...

Interested in scoop for 91.

I'm sure he means 02-04 USDM WRX.

She was hitting on me too! I don't know why, but she definately was. Roman and I were talking to her, and she was like "I should hit on all the judges..." and then pretended like I was a judge, she got up real close and ran her hand down my chest. Had I tried to say anything, my voice wou...

It's true that pretty much every connection in your car that can be crimped is crimped, and that the connection is extremely solid. However, you should understand that generally the crimpers and terminals you find at stores aren't of the same quality. True. I have a few hand operated ratchet type c...

Most likely they do. It will be really cheap at an electronics store (not radio shack, but a real nerd hang out). You have to have a heat gun to shrink it, though. It's like a really hot hair dryer. DON'T use it on your hair.

I just put in my Alpine cd player (thanks again Jason ;) ) and we spliced in the harness adapter ($ 16.99 at Bestbuy) before we ever even took the dash apart. I soldered mine and then used electrical tape over the solder joints. Every wire color matched perfect and it took only about 10-15 minutes ...

205/60/15 would fit the wheel, probably fit the car, too. But it is tall compared to stock size. For winter I think you can go with a narrower tire to increase the weight per surface area of tread contact. I'd say 195/60/15, the stock size. Related subject, check out how narrow the tires look when W...

Then, in the future, possibly lower your car 1 to 1 1/2 inches with 50 series tires? Yeah, as soon as you can possibly justify it, you should replace the RE92 with a better tire in the appropriate size. Run the RE92's 'til you notice the grip get worse. You will certainly notice it. That being said...

Your car looks great. The WRX wheels do work pretty well on a BC. They just look so damn plain on a WRX. I think they look pretty good on my GF wagon, too. For the $200 you paid you just can't beat it.

I need to find a local deal like that to put on my Legacy for winter.

What are you guys doing about mounting the i/c? Are they self supporting by the time you clamp the inlet and outlet? Or has someone adapted or fabricated some brackets?

Mounting cup is Autometer 2204
