Thread title makes me smile.

Sounds like a MAF sensor on the way out or a dirty idle air control valve.

I'm running Ad Block pro on firefox and have no trouble going to Sports Car Frenzy.

Holy crap, I put this in the wrong section.

I noticed this on my outback that after driving for about 30 minutes. Not all the time but sometimes when shifting into 2nd the gear will catch and grind slightly. I spoke to my Subaru mechanic and he told that they have some luck using the Lucas tranny stuff to keep some gears from grinding. Anyone have any other experiences? I have never had to drain a manual tranny before, do I just drain out the equal amount of fluid going in then add it back to it? Do I need to drive it easy or normal after adding the fluid? Thanks, Kyle

They don't usually blow head gaskets unless the motor has gotten hot. Make sure and take the heads to a machine shop.

Find you a used EJ22 to drop in and do work.

Agreed. Subarugenuineparts.com has a minimum charge that is stupid. I paid $8.00 to get a key blank shipped to me.

A friend of Battlewagon took that at our last Subaru meet. I was amazed. Added a WRX 6 disc changer tonight, friend had one sitting on his shelf at home. Said I could have it to get it out of the way. This was a plug and play mod. Here are the pictures from out last Subaru meet.

Unless it's a swapped RS, I doubt it. I never had the love for the RS that I had for my EA81 Hatch and 83 BRAT.

When you order, Kyle delivers. I actually want it to be an '06 so it gets the aluminum STi control arms. Yes, it must be world rally blue on gold. Want it to be as close to stock as possible. They are out there, I know. I have already got my first few mods/fixes in order for the Outback. Going to get a WRX 6 disc that a friend is giving me, for free. Going to get pads all around, oil change this weekend. CV axle (torn inner boot) should be installed next week, the boot tore a few days before I bought it. Also going to affix my new Subaru owner badge when it comes in. Also going to replace the blown bulbs in the climate control. Tom - the RS has served it's purpose fully. It has been my 110 mile/day driver since 2008. I have added my own touches to it to make the drive a little more bearable. Her latest pic:

House is definitely not paid for. I own a home but that also means that Chase Financial owns my home. We manage our money very well and don't buy anything we don't really need, there are some exceptions to what I want. I fell into a good job a few years ago as assistant IT director for the local municipal government, she is an accountant. The RS will be sold in a few months. I am about to graduate Tennessee Tech University with a BS in Business Administration/MIS in August and the wife gave me two options: 1. Two week trip to Japan. 2. STi You know which one I chose.

Throw this out as a start: When were the plugs and wires last changed?

I told her that this thing would be easier to learn on than my RS, RS clutch is say "goofy". No plans for any big mods yet, just gonna put the miles on her and do work. Will be my daily driver when I get the STi in a few months.

It was a $2000 personal loan. I had the cash already and my bank saw that. Plus, we own our home and have excellent credit. Also have a paid off RS and 2004 Accord and ZERO credit card debt, just mine and her's student loans.

I wish I still had my stock RS wheels laying around. :-\ This thing has brand new all season Goodyears on it.

I think those are the factory Outback wheels for that year, says those alloys were standard. Hmmm.

Wife is going to learn to drive a manual on it. I just climbed out of the thing a few minutes ago. The PO really loved salt. The RS was super dirty, got behind a truck of saw dust in the pouring rain this morning on my way to work.

Waiting for the bank right now to finalize my loan (got cash, don't want to deplete savings) 95 Legacy Outback, 5 Speed, 2.2

There is a chance you will get a CEL light from doing this mod too. If I was planning on keeping my RS I would definitely end up doing the UEL header mod. I will be upgrading to an 06 STi here in a few months after I graduate college. (Graduation present from the wife)

Yeah, those look like they should bolt up to the cat. I wouldn't buy a real Borla one though. A TON of people who have bought authentic Borlas have had them crack and have to be repaired. The ebay special headers will work just fine and are recommended by a lot of people on the RS board.

Glad to help out Tom. Post some videos up when you find a header and get it installed.

Are your turn signals turning off after you make a turn? If they are, then I would check the relay like SUBARU3 suggested.

Depending on the exhaust you decide to use, will effect your sound. I have heard some exhausts be super raspy even with the UEL headers, make sure and find you a good exhaust to go with or just use the factory catback. This thread will give you some ideas: http://www.rs25.com/forums/f5/t52687-official-exhaust-should-i-get-thread-video-clips-only.html

Ahh. Only Legacy I have owned is a 91. All my other experience is with BRATS and Imprezas.
