  1. Yeah i just want housings too, no loaded speaker, but for a decent price. those housings are perfect for my Gl hatchback sides rear, the Brat behind the seats, and my Civic hatch and CRX.........small, conspicuous, and mount well....
  2. cause those speakers are nearly as old as when i was in elementray school. like said, replace the woofers with some polks. And, that ebay price is NOT good at all, you could buy 3 sets for that price when they were available here.
  3. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pioneer-TS-44-Full-Range-Surface-Mount-Car-Speakers-/200692887169?pt=UK_In_Car_Technology&hash=item2eba3a6e81#ht_547wt_835 those were okay, although i would drop in a polk woofer in place of the pioneer. Stuff the back inside with some old pillow stuffing, then apply some rope caulking on the bottom to make them airtight for best bass response. Not too many theives go for simple stuff these days.
  4. You have likely blown headgaskets, the exhaust gases are mixing into the coolant chambers and blowing your exhaust gases out the overflow, instead of out the tailpipe. Your engine is not supposed to do that one. was there any recent coolant flushing? You could have a bad cap, or a trapped air bubble, but repetedly buddling out the overflow is bad. Change your radiator cap with a new one to start. On a cold car, fill the radiator, and put coolant in the overflow to the mark. Start car. Let warm up like 5 minutes, then pop hood, and open cap to the overflow jar. Look down in with a flashlight. Do you see lots of bubbles when the car is running?
  5. Always keep the original parts. Sometimes, the new stuff aftermarket is worse than old cruddy looking oem stuff, and it is beneficial to have old used oem stuff to try. Coil packs, well, it is probably fine, but WAY overpriced, can you get your money back on it? your diamond pack is most likely just fine. Your plug wires, well get ngk or oem, and yes NGK V power standard copper.
  6. I buy all my coils at the junkyard, used oem of coarse, usually about 10 bucks for each coil, got a STACk of them, but no extra good wires, hard to find good used oem wires, I usually get the ngk wire on amazon new when they are on sale.
  7. The most recent 94 legacy i got, someone thru some crap autostore plug wires on it, and there were a couple ends that wouldn't "snap/click" onto the end of the plug right. In fact, when i went to look at the car, the owner before me said it had a miss. I looked, saw the new "junk" plug wires on it, and snapped the one end on the plug, it cleared the miss up. Then a few days later, same thing happened under my ownership, plug wirecomes off the spark plug. Go with NGK plugs, and either OEM plug wires, or NGK plug wires. And I have had a few other legacy's that had some junk wires on it, and would get some hesitation and not spectacular mileage. Change the wires to oem used even, no issues. I am one who scavenges for the cars people have problems with, then put them back to stock for stuff like plugs and wires, and then they run good again. Then I sell them and do it all over again. I see many Legacy's with crap autostore wires on them. buy them cheap when they misfire and run poor.
  8. I have the manual out, but not sure what place to look. It shows 5spd fwd but not lots to see.
  9. i've got the service manuals, do you know what section i can maybe try to take a pic of the manual, if that would help any.
  10. Ben it deals with the carb rejetting and a couple air pressure solenoids that sense atmospheric pressure, ie the elevation so the car leans out. The higher you go, the less air for combustion, and so the car needs to dump less gas down the engine to run smooth and efficient. common, thing, sort of like a CA car junked with emissions garbage.
  11. dash is a gl dash for cover> jc whitney or rock ato about 22 dollars , got mine on a sale for 19,99 shipped
  12. something something testing them in the desert til breaking and they would not die...they were indestructable.
  13. GL dash is different than a DL. So many question no much answer. A dash cover for a Gl is not same as a DL. GL has options. Dl is optionless, and the cluster is DIFF.\ so far pics show a DL Brat. now who has a used GL dash pad i could use that.,? and tankx
  14. does not fit the criteria for a GL, the badge is not for that BRAT, someone glued it on. Oh well, still a very nice BRAT all Brat's are awesome.
  15. ^ well said. My own vision can see better with warm lights, not yellow, bot brite white, but something in the spectrum about 4000-4700.
  16. Nice. Pretty decent body. Looks like something used your back left tire as a bathroom
  17. that is sign of bad voltage regulator in the alternator. been there done that, the wipers would come on even though the switch for them was off too.
  18. yes, they are i was talking about the craigslist post of pics being gone where it showed side shot of the car, thought it had some good rust but your pics look pretty good still.
  19. the pics are gone now. and you are right this might be in better shape than the one I was talking of, we will wait to see more pics.
