Some info: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=212470&highlight=h6+filter Why can't you just use a regular 2.2 filter? There is no possible gain going to come from using an H6 filter.

Yup, that is why you will see some Tribeccas with 05+ STi BBS's.

You know, they make a pet cage for those cars that can keep the dog from getting into the drivers area. There is not enough money in the world to make want an EA82 anything.

You don't even need a cat on the Brat. Many people cut them off not long after they were new. Oh, and start a new thread over in old gen for technical stuff. More people browse there and can give you a broader chance for more options when it comes to answers.

Tribecca wheels, never thought someone would want those.

Cruise. Jump to about the ten minute mark for some action. Rollout video From a local meet we had last week.

Been about 4 years since I heard an EA81 go through the gears. Makes me miss my Brat and hatch even more.

I have always done the whole axle since it probably has slung all the grease out and the bearings have crap in them now. 36mm socket will be needed.

Definitely an 85 since it has the jump seats. You have a rare bird there man.

I thought 84 was the only year it got gl trim with auto and no t-tops. Do you have a gold sticker on the valve covers?

Thank you.

Glad I am not the only one with that bookmarked

Is it automatic?

Greetings from Crossville. Looks like you had the misfortune of buying from Grayson Subaru, you have my condolences. We have a pretty big group of Subaru guys in the KSOC group over on nasioc: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2289755 I am durania717 over there as well. We also have a facebook group.

Congrats on the snag. It also looks to be a DL Brat since you do not have T-tops. I am a little over an hour from you in Crossville.

Thanks guys. To explain my logic behind the brake cleaner. I looked at my latch and it looked to be black gummed up with crap. I was thinking it wasn't allowing a proper close.

As some of you may know, the 05 STi gets the monster hood scoop. Well, the problem that I have is if I do not slam the hood from about a 45 degree angle, it will eventually pop open on the highway. Not to say that it comes all the way open, it is being caught by the latch. I had originally sprayed the latch mechanism with brake cleaner thinking the latch was gummed up but it happened last night on the freeway again. Anyone have any thoughts?

Forester STi gets the 2.5 while the Impreza STi still gets the 2.0, today I learned something.

Here is a good example of a JDM Forester STI: http://exchange.goo-net.com/usedcars/SUBARU/FORESTER/700090143720120111002/index.html If the USDM had gotten one, I would have been all over it.

Love this color. 06 Steel Grey Metallic:

He hit the IT guy comment on the head. I am an IT guy and do drive an STi and do wave at other owners.

Looked at some of your Facebook pictures of where you live, truly an amazing scene you look at every day.

Jason, that's one rowdy lineup of cars.

The kit that I bought from Annapolis Subaru contained all replacement clamps and screws. Even contained the shield piece that goes around the filler neck entrance. Gary, you're 100% correct about it looking to take 10 minutes. It took me an hour and a half. Of course it was due to low light and me being the only one working on it.

It was a PITA when I did it on my 95 back in the summer. It's pretty straightforward replacement. Remove the rear wheel. Disconnect all the hoses. There is a single clamp to where it meets the fuel tank. This was the tightest fit and caused me the most aggravation. I think it would have been better if I had a second set of hands helping me.
