  1. 250k and 2k+ miles away.... no way in heck. If you look hard enough and be patient.... you'll find one. I personally know of a loyale sedan in PA that has next to no rust on the body (didn't see the frame b/c of snow) and it is 5 speed with push button 4wd. It has 195k on it and it is sitting on a "bargain row" I would almost guarantee it is going to be $800 or maybe even less. Honestly i'd offer $600 for it. I personally looked at it last weekend...so it might even still be there. LMK
  2. for the light to flicker and the fans to cycle on and off there is a test connector that is still hooked up that is normally unhooked. Look under the drives side dash for a green conncetor and a black one (I believe they are single wire connectors) and if you find them together unhook them.
  3. Hocrest has a 98 or 97 legacy that has over 200k on the tranny and he doesn't even bother to service it, drives it hard, and all that crap and it is great he says. My folks just bought a 99 legacy and it shifts great...it only has 61k on it but for someone who hates atuomatics (me) to say that is quite an accomplishment. The auto tranny I do hate is the automatic in the 90-94 legacy. They suck in my opinion. :-p If you take care of it and don't drive like a moron it will last....oh and the correct tires on the car with a good rotation history is a big plus too.
  4. ripping around town and hardly braking while doing it really makes the ricer crowd look at you kinda funny. Mine loves to run 75 but it can and will easily go to 85+...even though it needs a carb adj really badly.
  5. I got a reply from the guy that has the stuff on ebay....this is an exact snipit from my email..... Hello, Sorry I don't. At one time coverlay made them but no longer. Thanks, Bob *sigh*:-\
  6. Agreed. If my 83 didn't have snow tires on the front it would be really fun... and hum a little less too
  7. you have a spec. b and because of that I hate you... J/K I hope you like it...they sure are purdy....and a big warm welcome to the board from someone in the other Akron.... Akron PA. What # is it? just curious.
  8. actually it isn't the coolest in Akron (maybe just the nicest 95): 1 block up= grey 06 impreza 2.5i wagon 1 block to the right= 06 WRX black 4 blocks down= 05 baja grey and silver next door= 99 anniv. legacy Yeah the brakes will come in the summer....
  9. before: after: After the wash and back home: and the first person to say that I need to lower the front gets kicked...
  10. impreza's don't have power seats. As for side airbags....when you get them out then you can set them off and blow stuff up...(redneck good time)
  11. dash restoration???? how? Is that the same as going to J/Y's and searching for another dash in a color that I have never seen before (except mine)? If I'm wrong...please do tell...
  12. congrats on the b-day and good luck with the final....now do everyone a favor and get trashed but don't even think about touching the car...and stay inside too....people every now and then like to get drunk and pass out outside and then they are dead. Not a good idea. Party till you puke!
  13. I just sent him an email about one for my 83. I'll let you all know if he has a response for me or not. I didn't mention anything about the ones you guys are interested in since I am not in need of one of those.
  14. interested also....would like to know cost. Also, as someone else said....if there are some coupd rear windows with wiper holes in them I would love to talk about that too.
  15. FSM= factory service manual (it is a book) Hopefully skip will chime in...he was talking about doing this to his car.... Good luck otherwise.....I'd love to know how it turns out even though I drive stickshifts.
  16. I've met a few here on the E coast: Benebob Hocrest leaking oil moosens svxpert dennisex trogdor wagons only bucky92 legacy777 WJM Myxalplyx subafreak ej beerheart nkx subarubrat subyrally and a few other but I am blank right now....
  17. I called about 2 different subwoofers and Ron said they weren't in stock.....is it possible he didn't know about the specal list or were they really sold already??? :-\
  18. hey smitty...put a pic or so up of the tracker...would love to see it. As for subaru AWD....don't leave home without it.
  19. starting and running for short periods then not running it again will lead to premature exhaust rust out. Once it is off let it off. I just put my 83 in storage and I ran it around w/stabilizer in the tank a few days before parking it. I pulled the battery tonight and it is in my basement. The car is not going to get run for 3 months minimum. Benebob told me that if you put steelwool in the exhaust pipe it will keep mice out of your exhaust (nesting). Max inflation on the tires is a good idea and if you can spring for a cover all the better. I also have been told if you really want to go all out pull the plugs out and spray a little storage oil in the cyls. and put the plugs back in....it will keep the rings from getting stuck. Tell your OB to have a nice rest and visit it often to let it know you still care...
  20. I never even looked at the toipc.... oh well you snooze you lose. I think I would be in the same boat Skip.....I'd be sleeping in it too if my wife found out about something like that..
  21. How the heck do you people find this stuff. What the wind blows a certain direction and you can smell brats for sale? jellious BTW, if you ever get close to this Akron make sure you leave some time to swing by and bring some IC light with ya.
