  1. weather for the weekend.... so far looks like 2 out of 3 will be nice.
  2. hes gotta be talking about someone else. i dont think will is from down under :-p
  3. yes, this will make your exhaust louder.
  4. the dirt roads you take to get to the spectating areas are surprisingly smooth.
  5. i think the thieves and vandals might be distracted from your RS by the Lotuses, Ferraris, Jags, and Porsches
  6. i have a voltmeter already installed if im gonna replace the alt, guess i should look into upgrades, huh?
  7. i had the buggy (89 gl-10 t-wagon) out for a spin this weekend. my headlights are pretty crap when im idling ~800 rpm iirc. when i start to move they get brighter. didnt see anything in the USRM or my searches. is my alternator dying?
  8. i think that looks badass! keep the scoop, and see if theres a way you can rig it into a snorkel.
  9. theres a few pdf copies of a book called 'how to keep your subaru alive' floating around.... search!
  10. did you get your steering wheel and adapter at work, tim? how much was the adapter if so? (w/o your discount)
  11. there was one on my wagon when i bought it, so i know they exist. not sure where youd find one though. i dont know if i still have mine or not.
  12. i dont know about detonation, but i dont want an oil lined intercooler. that kills the intercoolers ability to efficiently disippate heat.
  13. nah, i dont want your TT intercoolers. hell, im still trying to sell my starion ic!
  14. your trap speed is faster than what i get in my wrx. how much boost are you running? if you let the clutch out kinda slow, you wont beat up the gears. i think my best 60' was 1.9 or 1.8, so slipping the clutch should take off a few tenths as long as you dont bog.
  15. wow, nice! didnt know you ditched the TT side mount ic idea. whered you get all your plumbing and the ic?
  16. if we're thinking of the same test, get a spray bottle of soapy water, and pressurize the intake tract. spray the solution over the engine and bubbles will form where your leak is.
  17. ah! someone stole my idea to put wrx style fender flares on a brat! :-\
  18. heads/headgaskets are the weak link.
  19. actually, after april 29th prices go up by $10. thats straight from the brochure carlisle sent me. BUT THATS NO REASON TO PROCRASTINATE, SO GET ON IT!
  20. adding to the noob questions, what do you guys use to turn the crank?
