  1. an exhaust shop can just slap one of those in, right? i'd like to stay away from shops like that.. but i dunno if i have the knowhow to get one of those in
  2. I dunno if i'm going to have the lift springs before the meet.. .and if i do i might be installing them the night before.. and getting a quick allignment on the way there But my lightforces should be on the way here soon!
  3. I'd stay to spec w/ the harbor freight one (~200lbs) not sure about the other...
  4. i say clear coat!!! get a flap-disc (or 20) from your hardware store, throw it on your angle grinder, and have at it then clearcoat the piss out of it THAT would be HOTT sooooo shiney......
  5. I've had WELL over 200 lbs on my hitch before (read 24" sailboat) i wouldn't worry too much about it, if you want.. just use some rachet straps, they'll be able to give you a little more nut than trying to tie to... or use a truckers hitch Just remember a few things... the roof racks arn't ment for that sort of force really (down & back), and when you hit bumps, there is alot more force going to be on the back that usual... but whatever, factors of saftey are there for a reason... keeping people who push the limits alive
  6. Could i just ground out the one? soo.. take the existing sensor i have, put it in that hole (as to plug the hole), and ground it out? and just ground out the 2nd one as well ? And by grounding out.. you mean taking the leadin wire of the sensor, and just slap it to ground? so there's no resistance? seems like stuff would short out... or did i read that completely wrong? only problem i have is that i don't feel like poping a new hole in front of the cat & threading it... or whatever i'd have to do to get a sensor there...
  7. lol... going through the thought process was funny to me I think that saying works ALOT better for subarus than jeeps.... i mean honestly.. you've got to have something if you offroad your SUBARU
  8. fwd impreza axles work. and there's d/r's all over the place up here you'd also need an adapter plate.. a different flywheel (or have yours re-drilled), and figure out a read drive shaft... either weld em together, or have a custom one built.
  9. Yeah.. i've got to make a skidplate too.. i HAVE smashed the oilpan before... and it wasn't pretty...a ctually.. still isn't... copper RTV is great stuff
  10. Well.. as it is, i don't think you could do it... because well... viscous things don't weld well.... As for a shaft... to make your subi RWD... why..... do you have another car to drive? because i don't think you want to be messing w/ the awd that much...
  11. The flux capacitator... duh!.. that's how AWD works umm.... the viscous coupler.... or the center clutch pack on the autos... i think.
  12. i have no idea... i pictured a very large, heavy, piece of metal, which is welded to EVERYTHING under the car.... you know.. like 4x2ft... good stuff!
  13. so much stuff to do... -Big Springs -Big Lights -Little Wheels -Big Tires
  14. Now... how are you going to make the front end do the same?
  15. I haven't changed my plugs.... ever... and i've had the car since 107k.. it's at 176k.... think it's about time?
  16. You could go Alloy to keep weight down you know... M/T's look HOTT on alloys...
  17. Yeah, i've actually gotten the best milage out of my OBS w/ the box on it... wierd... i found that mine isn't 100% waterproof more like 98.6%... when we had rediculous rain here, some actually leaked in through the rivits!! but that was also like.. 10 days of severe rain... and my box has had some serious abuse... I'm just going to put some silicon on them when i get a chance.. should fix the problem.
  18. I'm going form a set of Borla single port EJ22 headers, to a 03' WRX exhaust.. so it still has a cat, and o2 sensors... at least 1 sensor... not sure how many... i guess i'll find out on friday! Here's the exhaust Looks like 1 Cat, and 1 sensor... where as my OBS has 2 cats, and 2 sensors.. i guess i'll have to figure out something.... any ideas anyone?
  19. the whole side??!? crazy! looks great Mic! What kind of cutter do you use? i think i might put my Offroad Subaru sticker on my box... it's too big for the impreza...
  20. HOTT .... the car... not the sketchy guy on the ground Oh yeah, forgot to mention, good choise of beverage
  21. have someone weld a 1/2" plate to your unibody, and put a hole in it for a shackle...
