Where'd you find the resistor?

The high idle was initially caused because the ECU still thought it was an AT. The ECU will put more timing advance at idle for an AT vs. a MT because there is more drag/weight in the system. You can alleviate this problem by snipping the AT/MT identifier lead that goes to the ECU. I believe Dave di...

Should fit.....the only thing you'll probably find that is different is how they attach to the caliper. I believe the WRX uses a clamp type setup to attach the lines to strut, while the older ones use a pass through.

IMO the clamp is better.....less of a pain in the butt.

I think you need 17's to clear the 4-pots. Also.....I've been told that subaru 4-pots need to be bled often.....I don't know why or if this is BS.....just an observation someone told me. You can get all the parts used....depending on the buyer for about 200 bucks.....or around there. Much cheaper th...

So you are using a 15 ohm power resistor instead of the stock one.....which was about 7.5 ohms I believe. I can tell ya....from first hand experience.....my tranny is not the same after leaving the resistor unplugged......It does some weird stuff when I drive around and leave it in the 3 position. J...

Yes.....Mike you are right.

You're in denver too.......PM Al and stop by and see his setup.....if that's cool with him. I'm sure they can fab you something that will work.

To do the swap you need pads, rotors, calipers, brackets from a WRX. The effect of messing up the brake balance will probably be less of an issue with the turbo. By adding the WRX brakes on the front you will effectively increase the amount of brake torque that can be generated in the front. You how...

I believe milehiAl sells a catch can type setup that you run the breathers & PCV in so you don't get any oil in the intake track

Well.....I don't have the AGX's But I do have the GR2's and just installed whiteline springs. I really need to wait until the springs get seated and stuff before I can give you final comments. But first impressions are good. I could probably go for a little stiffer struts....but I think when the spr...

You really should have some sort of catch can system to hook all the breathers up to. This will keep the oil from going into the IC & from spilling all over the place

This torque chip www.torquechip.com

Are all the connectors the same for the OBD1 & OBD2 ecu's? Or is there a difference there that will cause him problems.

I'm assuming too because one is a turbo & one is n/a that will cause problems too.

Al,

If you have a digi cam and can take some pics I can host them on my site if you want.

Al, I've been talking with that guy. I told him he could use one of your chips with the stock 95 ecu. The other issue is that in 95 OBD2 was introduced. So I don't think he could just swap ECU's.....and pulling the whole wiring harness would be an unbelievable bear. He'd be better off just getting s...

Try resetting the ECU......also......get rid of the bosch platinums. Put in NGK's Either just the normal coppers or platinums, if you want platinums.

welcome

I'm not sure what to tell ya. I'm not sure myself. Call some more dealers. See what they say...... www.libertysubaru.com

yeah I did that stupid filler neck o-ring gasket too. It was leaking pretty good.

The thermostat is on the bottom side of the drivers side portion of the engine......(that's horrible grammar :lol: ) The water pump is behind the timing belt covers. The t-stat bolts right to the engine. The big hex nuts are the coolant drain things.....you don't need to touch those. taking the t-st...

think I got mine for like 40 bucks. Call www.libertysubaru.com

Should be able to get it cheap.

sweet, Sounds good man. Let us know how the PS cap & new grommets work out. You should really pressure wash your engine bay when you get everything fixed....or so you think. That way you'll be able to spot where the leak is coming from. I just finished installing my whiteline springs & sti t...

don't worry about the previous problem thing. If something pops up.....then the TCU is getting a signal from that sensor that is out of the normal range.

May want to check i-club in the regional forums....someone there may be able to give you a recommendation for a place in your area.

classic......gotta love that.....

Dave,

Moved your post to the engine forum.

That's my site. Previous problems.....basically means if you have any codes in there from problems or such. It's possible it could be speed sensor.....but I sorta doubt it because you heard the thunk.......that's not good..... I'd stop by a tranny shop....see if they could give you a free diag.........
