Man...you guys were busy this weekend.
I replaced a front caliper on the RS, but the Legacy's in the shop still.
I gave up on trying to figure out the problem on my own.
Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
sometimes thats the best way. keeps your sanity in check. hopefully when you get it back it will be good to go.
im hopeing today to put on my 22B steering wheel. my friend dropped off the torx bit so i can remove the airbag.

Heck, I'd be happy with paying them for a diagnosis and fixing it myself if theysqc151 wrote:sometimes thats the best way. keeps your sanity in check. hopefully when you get it back it will be good to go.

can give me a few different options of what it could be.
Man...I freakin love those. I have one in my RS. I think it's a T-34 or T-40. I cant remember which.
Getting the turn signals to work in the RS was funny though. I put bolts in it to make it turn on and
off since the clock spring was completely different. Should be a perfect match up in the Legacy though.
Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
Went to put the steering wheel on but it won't work cause of the airbag connections. So I'm just gonna swap columns with the 91ss.

Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
Tested the H.I.D that has the cracked ceramic thing and it works fine. Also marked the ballast that doesn't always come on so I know which one is bad. Oh yeah, I also put my engine cover back on with the "turbo" plate in it, should be good for 10 hp. Not a whole lot but atleast I did something.

Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
No sound clips, but it does sound like a suby. i put a tip on it today. the sound is out the back now, not in the cab. 2 1/4 is the muffler size.

Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
Went and got a full alignment done for my new suspension and also got a screw removed from one of my tires that was causing a slow leak. also got complimented on my exhaust twice!

Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
SUBY: Man, looks awesome
Adam: I love it right after getting an alignment when it drives
straight. Sweet feeling. I used to let those screws sit for a while,
but these days I just plug them when it starts losing air. What kind
of exhaust do you have?
