  1. Thats another very VERY VERY common problem with our XTs:) I think somewhere in my vast array of pictures..I have almost the exact same picture
  2. Chicken Fried Steak and Gravy?? Can you feel your arteries hardening at the thought??:lol:( actually that what I am making tonight here:-p....I love cookin) So it is known..I am flying out alone..and its going to be a huge step for me cause I have social anxiety disorder...So even though I am looking sooo forward to this..its scaring the crap outta me too.
  3. I know you guys are making me really wish I had more time to spend out there...thats for sure. But at least I know that I will be back out for WCSS10..but that too..is going to be a short trip.
  4. I would adjust the clutch or replace the cable...ALSO make sure all the adjusting nuts are still on it..where they are supposed to be.
  5. Like I said... I am going to leave myself to the mercy of Rob...Whatever he wants to do. He's the boss...
  6. Cool... I will get the campsight when I send in my reggy money. Probably going to bring Hollister...she would be a definate ..no problem..I hate bringing a brand new car but..I can't guarentee the coupe...Maybe I will enter it also ..who knows I will bring the Hillbilly Golf game!!!
  7. I have no clue Ken... I just know about working on my coupe..Briggs is coming over for some stuff ..And then to get the coupe to DAS..Thats about all I know..so far And I am sure that first day at least is going to be a wash with the jet lag time difference thing And since Rob and myself were posting at the same time LOL... Its up to him actually... I am alwys game to meet people...especially you west coasters. So if he wants to set up a MnG ..thats fine. And yup..I have to cook him dinner too:lol:
  8. John..are we doing the same thing and sharing a camp sight?? WAFFLE HOUSE GRITS!
  9. Its pretty much done deal...flying out to Seattle April 10th for a few days to spend some time with those I love...Turbone, Psyko, and my GL-10 coupe:grin:Flying out on the 10th and returning on the 14th. Plans are to work on my coupe a bit..get it to the auto shipper..I have some work to do on Psykos XT-T ...And will be staying at Turbones..So anyway...just giving a heads up..and I promise I will try and leave the east coast rust..here;)
  10. I have been doing some reading up on this swap myself...debating on changing my 83 GL-10 coupe to SPFI..My reason is mainly cause...I am more familiar with the SPFI system then carbs...Now if the coupe was going to be a daily driver I think I would definately do the swap...but its going to be a restoration/show car..Garage queen/king...Maybe driven once a week and not at all during the winter.NO WAY!!!! I would be crazy to ship a car from the rust free lands of WA to the rust belt and allow it to be exposed to the elements.. So would you do this swap?Or leave it a carb..I mean there is some carb issues with it..Rob says it has a Carter on it and the PO did a butchering of the choke...we did discussed just plopping another carb on it. So in this case though..since its not going to be a driver per-say..would you leave it carb?
  11. I am probably going to be coming down..Just for Friday and Sat so I dont miss any work and Friday will probably be a wash due to lack of sleep thingy.. Just need to figure out Hollister ( 08 Imppy) Rocky..a return visit. Or the "Lil Blue One" if he is ready since he will probably just be getting here a couple weeks before...but that would be a cool unvailing of my Seattle Import:grin: Thanks Matt.. I have been thinking about all this too. Waffle House!!!!!
  12. Go to the Vender page..and look for McBrat..he already makes USMB decals ..I have been using his work for many years now and all my cars HAVE to sport his work...In fact i just got new STi Pink ones for my 08 Impreza!..He will even do custom work..he did an "Under Construction" one on my XT6.
  13. WOW...lets see.. I just got one of my dream Subarus ..waiting for me in Seattle ...my 83 GL-10 coupe...Maybe someday a Gen 1 brat ..I have my 88 XT6..Someday still want my lifted EA82 badazz wagon..and I have an 2008 Impreza 5 door...... I think as long as it says Subaru..I probably will want it:)
  14. Ben..check your vacuum canister for your heater functions...Check those hoses make sure none are cracked or blew off..your heater controls are vacuum actuated. Then bring it to me and I will help you look at it:) Also..let me see what I may still have around thats EA82 orientated..If I have anything its yours ok?
  15. My first reaction was:eek::eek::eek: ..Then it went to..Ahh Its a Subaru its fine.. Then back to WTF???
  16. There is one member on NASIOC who is having a similar problem with his 08 Impreza. But only on cold mornings and not to the severity of yours ( his will start 2nd or 3rd try) and doesnt throw a code. I am curious as to what they find is the cause. Since it happened within 48 hours it could be something very simple. You are lucky it tossed a code to make it easier to diagnose.
  17. I have always said..sometimes you just have to talk to your Subaru...ask backwoodsboy about Bucky...He now knows. I am looking forward to having my little "sit doen" with the Little Blue Coupe
  18. I have been fightng this problem all winter with my XT6 since it really isnt being used...4 boxes of moth balls...worked for a short time..now my car smells like old people and the mice are still having a field day.Tried everything but the poison cause I dont want to be smelling dead rotten rodents come spring.
  19. Nice!!! And you got the Diamond of the bunch too...everything anyone could every want on an OB..its the perfect one!! If I wouldnt have gotten the deal on my 08 Imp..that is probably what I would have been looking for for a DD. I still sware..if my husband wouldnt have a cow.. I would probably own one of each...I have always wanted an OB since they came out.
  20. Looks good Neo! I can tell the big difference between before and after..before the rear looks to be sagging.and you can definately see the better groung clearance in the front.
  21. Different States ..different laws..in CT the front doors are not 'supposed" to be no less then 35% ..but the back doors and rears can be as dark as you want...most go 35% froms 20% rears... I had my Imp done at 20% all around except the windshield..and I have seen some cars who have actually done thier windshield too....and like BattleAxeT6 says..lifetime warranty when you have it professionally done.. Mine is Lumex.. I think..for brand...good stuff though.. Now around here..they will not mess with you on tint unless you are doing something else stupid .On another note..My 20% actually appears lighter because I have a light interior. If you have a darker interior it will make the tint seem darker.
  22. Awww Skip Making me blush .. But I learned alot my XT6 knowledge from Gary But actually..even though most of the members from the XT board visit here regularly..there is more compounded info on the cars..online FSMs, upgrade secrets..repairs...over there.
