  1. may as well just buy a hatch then and get it over with. sounds like a good idea for a weber install
  2. i think the crossmember and more importantly the bellhousing are the same depth, making that moot
  3. agree with everyones comments that a oil pressure guage is manditory
  4. so i finally got it done today tube was a really hard to bend to stock shape when it turned out i bent the old one when i removed it due to rust. but if you look at my pics (pics in pics page) you will see i also installed a rear disk brake while i was at it. but my hub is now running warm. did i do something wrong? the castle nut was hot to the touch after a short drive. :-\ but wow the diff even adding a 3rd disk brake made was just superb! stops so responsive like NEVER before. edit the castle nut is as tight as the specs say
  5. i actually shift kinda low below 4000 but i dont look at the tach
  6. i never understood why people like to use only rotary tools to port. id use the die grinder less than this thing, takes less skill to use.

  8. the stock speakers BLOW http://cgi.ebay.com/Boston-Acoustics-S65RC-6-Speaker-for-Honda-etc-NIB_W0QQitemZ160140778002QQihZ006QQcategoryZ18799QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem (im not suggesting ebay just that model) these fit the stock plastic speaker holders without mods and you could not possibly ask for a better sound.
  9. glad you made it there without a glitch. always nice when that happens
  10. um ok? i tried to get one from subaru to make things easy. after some finding the part number computer said its been obsoleted. and i had been hoping to go the easy route since this line has many tight bends.
  11. the ones on my n/a were some sort of aluminum alloy. im sure you can find some parts house that carries equally good bearings that the turbo comes with for less mioney.
  12. my bolt broke on me be sure to soak it in kroil if it has undue resistance
  13. oh i see it was the line running from the "proportioning valve" to the rear brake that failed me. it doesnt look so bad to do now.
  14. i disagree hondas sound nothing like the chainsaw-cutting-through-a-tin-roof of a poorly muffled rotary. speaking of v4 id love a Honda RC45
  15. ok bill i guess ill replace both sides just to be safe.
  16. the wast coast makes subarus cheaper. here i never see old ones.
  17. oh thats a nice one. id be all over it save that AT.
  18. rear bump stop. if a wagon id forget it. wagons have a seperate one. if a sedan-well id replace it.
  19. looks better than mine. maybe mine will look good with the new wheels
  20. check plug wires and disty cap first! always the easy stuff first. doesnt sound like a headgasket more like valve
  21. also air cooled vw all have a unique pitch to them. almost like a 125cc motorbike that subaru sound sure beats that honda burble doesnt it?
