  1. Well, you can always go hang out at the Local Wal-mart for kicks. Make it look as if your looking at stuff lol. At least you'd be out and about. Cheers, -Tom
  2. Yeah, I like that. Looks right and proper for sure. I Commend you on your prep and painting skill and the point you did it to what basically is a "New" car. As for One color Baja's, I think the best solid color Subaru offered was the Purple pearl. Yellow is over-rated on them, but then, that is the only model Subaru has ever offered in Yellow since the 80s. -Tom
  3. Bushings maybe? How old are the rear struts? There could be slop in the shock shaft cause the oil is breaking down with age and usage, so it could be rumbling around when it gets way cold. Just a though -Tom
  4. Holy crap! Your still there. At least you have the USMB
  5. Oh yeah, I should post that! I figured since you've seen it, no one else needs to
  6. Damn I just love that color! My two favorite colors for EA82s are the Ruby #947 and what is that color called? Misty Dawn or something?
  7. Hey there!

     

    Yes that was at Copps, it was when we went out to Madison to "Don Millers Subaru Show" as for a "Murder-wagon" thats Scotts car, that was before he put the 14" Peugeot wheels on it with 27" Grabbers. I don't think he was trying to go with the Murder look on purpose Haha :)

     

    As for the bridge picture, that was out on "Point Rd." Kind of off "hy I" out in Mukwonago.

     

    I am looking forward to seeing your Brat, The only Brat I have seen in person has an EJ22 swap, I'd like to see an EA81 first hand :)

     

    As for age, yeah, your old enough to be my Dad. But don't worry, us Old gen guys act like men rather then the Impreza guys who act like dumb boy racers. We also work on our own vehicles, unlike the Impreza guys.

     

    Cheers and happy holidays!

  8. Where is the TCU box? I see a small aluminum box under the dash on the drivers side, its held up with two 10mm nuts. Is that it? Its been to cold for me to really look, I just want to know cause its been bugging me
  9. A mechanic isn't going to weld up your old part, they are only going to replace it, thats their job. Charge you as much as possible for crap you don't even need. I don't even have mufflers on either of my Subarus. But then again, I don't live in PA where they have vehicle inspection. Hell, WI doesn't even have emissions for vehicles 1995 and older (OBD-I systems)
  10. It has been bought! Yeah thats a great price, I keep seeing them listed for $140 and such. In your face ebay! I got mine for $100
  11. 4" is pretty much for most folks, its better then stock! I think I would like to squeeze one more inch outta the Legacy and call it good, I really don't want to drop down control arms and everything, so this is a nice option.
  12. Thats lame with the belt lengths, well just cut yours down and duct tape it like Red Green fashion (Yes I am joking) I do wonder why your pump is showing signs of failure? Mine has 211,000 and is solid.
  13. Hmm, well, there shouldn't be any play in it at all (Just like a waterpump) If your gonna take it to Madison, I would unbolt the P/S pulley and do with out it till you get back. Fluid smell normal?
  14. I think this is one great idea! And I agree with Buick350 on the stackable thing, that would be cool and easy for adding more lift down the road. I have Outback struts with Forester springs, it would be cool to lift it even more with this. I am all for it, as if you couldn't tell -Tom
  15. I really need to buy this when I get paid. I hope my check goes in before the sale ends! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220705973342&fromMakeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:en#ht_3708wt_835
  16. Lol, I like this. Theres like no one in MT with Subarus...? Please! Happy trails man -Tom
  17. I love those photos, something about them makes it look nostalgic. Very good indeed! -Tom
  18. I see you have two threads going. Well again, a warm welcome to the USMB! (I can use all the warmth I can get living in WI) Heres what I posted in the other thread; You should be able to adjust the clutch cable since its a non-hydraulic clutch. The adjustment should be right over the bellhousing (Under the spare tire if its in there) you can adjust how much slack is in it to make it more responsive, you would also adjust it when the clutch disc gets worn to keep the clutch right there rather then letting it out so far.As for the rattle, I'm not sure, But I am sure GD will pop in and give his word on the whole deal.The Loyale/GL (EA82 engine) is a good engine and won't let you down as long as you do a little bit of preventative maintenance. Keep coolant and oil in it and she'll be happy, and check the timing belts from time to time. Cheers! -Tom
