  1. i make a 2 inch lift for that car. info can be seen at http://www.ncfab.net/?utm_campaign=www.newcreationsfabrication.com&utm_source=www.newcreationsfabrication.com&utm_medium=referral/expertise.html
  2. i put all the shims back where they went, oil pressure cant shut off fast enough. i went out and beat it like it owed me money- noise bubye violence solves everything!
  3. 99 outback- 2.5dohc. no knocking, pulled engine to replace hgs and timing, reinstall, now knocks what could i have done to cause this?
  4. i make a 1 inch lift, and two inch. they do not affect the ride, or handling in anyway. we have sold hundreds of sets world wide. they are avail on ebay
  5. most 92-94 turbos did not have AN LSD. you can wipe the grime off the back off the rear diff. it would read VLSD if it was. other wise it would just say 3.90 or 4.11
  6. ok- im ready to buy bill- do these fit only w and r series trans (no g series?) have we come up with a remote shifter yet? thanks
  7. i did this to a customers car- ran like a raped ape
  8. ive installed hundreds of these lifts, and i know gloyale has also, it takes 30 seconds to drop em
  9. make sur eyou drop sway bar links, much easier. if you are using the outbach strut hast, you will need to drill holes to match, or put your legacy tophats on the outback setup
  10. i can anwswer this for everyone porche 930 cvs
  11. ive looked at that car buddy. your money is better spent elsewhere. unless you only want the shell
  12. by the way- we won stock class oregon rally in that 91 sedan....with a for sale sign in it hahahaha
  13. why you here- you- the dood holding a beer and salted snack feed- your here because you love subarus i do to, theyre cool ive owned 121, not a typo. i drive em, race em, jump em, turn em into farm tools, sell em. fix them, everything that being said, the off road guys have "recipies" for known results. buy GL- ADD blablabal, and you know you will get a relatively capable forest thumper its been done a million times, hell my daily driver is a 91 leggo with 8 inches of lift and 31s but i have always loved rally, spireted gravel driving, being a jackass in the forest with an uncorked boxer. whatever you want to call it i have not seen or heard of a recipe or formula for fun sideways in the dirt ive built several succesful rally cars, but will admit on every occasion- success was accidental please give input of what we can tell our freinds, customers, the police- makes a good subaru rally car -for Gods sakes- we're starting with the most capable awd car in history- lets all help eachother achieve euphoria sideways in a cloud of dust early inpreza- legacies can be had for nothing these days so lets take- Gen 1 leg sedan. 5 spd awd- and virtually turn it into a poor mans stress reliever for those that have kids and a mortgage, but long to talk our freinds into pulling us out of the river at 2am budget suspension? budget break upgrades? sway bar choices, ways to lighten and stiffen sources for parts that are cheaper alternative to high dollar rally tires lets help our brothers yall my last "success" was a 92 leg sedan, awd 5 spd stripped it down to 2380lbs with fuel no interior etc. i had forester springs and struts obw sways open exhaust, intake delta cams a/c fan converted to full time use. redneck skidplates stock stoopid street tires good tall ebrake but no cage, or safety seats, or harnesses. this car was faster then it should have been with no safety- resulted in a crash that resulte in a broken wrist, air time, followed by broken ribs and laughing. what yall got ?!?
  14. thanks for the responses- ivan- good plan, i do not have the tools to do so un fortunately known good means, they came out of parts cars that i drove- i knew it was quite it has an auto trans, flexplate is possible i will look new timing belt and tensioner was used, it is not flapping like some in the past have
  15. I have 1999 Subaru Forester with a SOHC/Ej25 that had an apparent engine knock. I replaced the block with a known good replacement, and experienced the same sound, so I replaced the block with another known good low mile block with the same results. I have 2 blocks that are known to be in good condition and the original with an unknown history, all are making what sounds like a rod knock, but I find it hard to believe that it is. Every assembly was assembled using the original heads, new head gaskets, and new timing components. I have checked the vaulves, and they appear to be well within the specifications. So I strongly believe that they are not making the noise, and it does'nt sound like vaulve noise in the first place. Any ideas from the community would be appreciated.
  16. i too used a forester hose, and a stock 99 outback. i have a 4 inch lift
  17. i have purchased several obx headers. they are a fantastic value. they perform well, produce more power as claimed. and will handle quite alot of abuse recommended
  18. well.........that sounds badass. you are greatly improving a previous hunk of turd car. no flamming here i have a short block, thats about it but a start
  19. alot of lift, forester alloys and 225 75 16 at's
  20. i had it done several times....9041 NE Vancouver Way Portland, OR 97211 (503) 289-2264
  21. 91 leg- 4inch lift, plus forester struts and springs, plus 1 inch hdpe spacers 225 75 16 all terrains on forester sport wheels 14.5 inches clearance at diff
  22. im doing a 4 inch lift on a 91 legacy- what mods to the 5 speed shifter are necessary?
