  1. From what i have read, redline is more for racers. So the oil does not do as good of a job at lower temperatures. It is designed for high speed hence "redline" driving. So i would not imagine it is good for everyday use, just when you want to race...i guess. Also between 5W-50 and 0W-40, which one is better for which season. I am in san francisco where it is fairly cool all year around. I figure i could run winter oil, all the time...maybe?
  2. I have the brighton model, i don't think mine are able to light up. can some one tell me if mine can light up? Please?
  3. You seem to have the experience to back up what you say. So, I guess your religion just earned another follower. Thanks.
  4. Wow, thanks for the advice. I just had the front axle replaced. I think I will do the timing belt and all the other good stuff, over thanksgiving break. I was thinking of starting to run synthetic oil. Would you recommend this? what about that sythetic high mileage oil? And which one, 10w-30???
  5. I paid 2,800 for a similiar one, but it was a brighton (base model minus even more stuff) model.
  6. So, I just bought the 95 legacy wagon with a 120,000 miles. I want this to be my baby, and i want it to last for many moe years and many more miles. So I was hoping you guys could tell me what problems i might have? is this a good car? Also, my timing belt was changed at 61,000 miles, how more miles could I get out of my belt? Also any special car care tips I should follow? And lastly, do they have a climate control panel that lights up for my car. It is a little annoying at night, when I can't see any of the bottons.
  7. What about using sythetic oils. That is supposed to give you more time between oil changes, right? I realize that won't stop leaks, but will it slow the rate at which your engine burns oil? Would you guys recommend synthetic oil? I have had to add about a quart of oil between each oil change. I feel like that is a bit much. My mechanic says there is no evidence of a leak. I wonder, is that normal?
  8. Okay, so i just bought a 95 legacy brighton wagon. The carpet is all messed up, leaky bottle of bleach i presume. I wanted to buy a precut pre-molded carpet, but I can't find any for my car. The dealer wants $350, thats too much. So i don't mind doing it myself, but I am having trouble finding carpet by the foot or yard. I found expensive stuff for $58 a sq yard. Thats too much money. I also found this stinger carpet, at cardomain. Will the stinger carpet mold well, will it work, is it crap? Any other carpets you guys know of, or places i can get it?

  9. I would appreciate that. I would defintely be interested in coming out. Thanks Brian. -Avish
  10. I love it here. I am a cool weather kind of person, so just the place for me to be.
  11. I just wanted to say hello. I have been reading a little on this forum for a little while, and I finally got the car of my dreams...a Subaru, a 95 legacy wagon, with 120 K on it. So I decided it was time to join and say hello. Avish
