Get it dude, you can get almost half that out of the wheels to some dude with an impreza or even one of us with a 5 lug conversion. -

Allied Armament Update 300 Hp Wagon
Durania replied to Allied Armament's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Its gotta be an 04-05 STi. Remember they lowered the hoodscoops on them. I agree most salesman all they care about is outbacks when it comes to old gen subarus. -

I figured as many posts I put on here referring back to the many electrical issues I have had with the current brat and my dearly departed backfiring hatchback. I am glad to finally have a problem marked off the list. My father just started wiggling wires in the dash around and I was watching the voltage guage and when it shot up to normal I about relieved my bladder in my breeches. Aba, I hope my advice may have given you some relative place to start your task of electrical mayhem, I had been banging my head against the wall on this one for 2 months now and it makes me look forward to driving it twice as more. Thanks guys for all the great, polite and educated advice. This place is a second home to me. Kyle.

My number 1 clue was that when driving my voltage was like it is shown in the above picture. But, sitting at a red light it would read at half the gauge, my father expalined that its cause it would bump the column like when turning and just over the course of everyday driving.

gen 1 jumpseats into a gen 2??
Durania replied to 75subie's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Well we can start by comparing pictures: Here is my gen 2 brat seats: Maybe that will help get you a start. -
Its most to do with a ground issue. On mine, there is a blue wire inside the dash on the left side of the steering wheel that was somehow making contact with the collumn. My best advice is to stick your hand up there with the motor running and try and wiggle some wires around until you have the expected outcome. My father wiggled some wires with his arm inside the dash about 3/4 the way and I watched the voltage meter while he was doing this. It helps to have a friend to help and a good deal of patience with this. What are your symptoms aba? Kyle.

Yes! We did infact use the zip ties to fix the wireing the dude I got it off wasnt the best person to do electical work and it looked super tacky. When I bought it my foot would get tangled in the wires underneath the dash. We secured them properly up inside the dash. It is infact, like driving a new brat. This is a great weight taken off my shoulders' to finally have the electrical issues in the brat fixed. Next thing is the wiper motor and the driver's side axle cause the boot is busted and I will be set. As long as my patience and love for this board holds true......

Ever since I bought the brat I had the issue of low voltage, dim lights, non-functioning fuel gauge, and a door chime that would only dong, not ding. I replaced the alternator still with little luck. My gauge cluster looked like this twenty four/seven. Me and my olde man yesterday after changing plugs, wires, distributor cap, and rotary button. After finishing up, we decided to take on the task of why my voltage just plain sucks. Previous owner believed it to be related to distributor bushings but, I refused to believe that. We traced the problem down to a small wire in the dash grounding out against the steering column draining half the voltage and making the voltage gauge read at half, like shown in the picture above. We reset the wire into a better spot by wedging a piece of my plug wire box up there and the results were immediate. My radiator fan blew like a STi turbo, my lights lit up like meteors, and my fuel gauge took its respective position at half a tank. I am tickled to death to finally have this problem solved.

Junkyard/Dealership Fun Before Work PICS!
Durania replied to Durania's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
This is the brat that was for sale on here a few months ago. Everyone in the southeast was contacting the guy trying to purchase it. Heres some pictures of it. The tailgate is the worst part on it, thank goodness. This one is my favorite even though it was taken with a cell phone camera. -
