Im sure you can meet plenty of single women in a mustang. Subaru's arent widley accepted as "lady getter's". Unless your driving an STi maybe.

I can get you the number to the junkyard its about 40 miles from where I live. Also I can give you the name of the guy to talk to and maybe hope he can help you out.

It would be hard for me to afford an STi while going to college, I plan on purchasing one when I get out. I have yet to work out some issues on my fuel gauge. I think theres a ground somewhere but havent got the chance to check things out. I appreciate you guys complimenting on my gauge cluster, I take great pride in my brat, that thing is my baby. Here are some more pics of the adventure today. I seen this in the junkyard as well as a better pic of the scavenger brat.

I assume the picture shows the windshield popped open and with about a quarter inch crack on the side. That is probably the cause of your dilemma.

I got up early this morning and decided to run to the local junkyard in hopes of finding a wind deflector for the passenger side t-top for the brat. Luckily the dude that runs the place has been friends with the family for years. I asked him if he cared if I looked around he said to me:"You know where all the subarus are better than I do, go have fun". Not being able to say "no" to this I decided to set out with my ratchet set and girlfriend's digital camera. Here is the only BRAT they have in the junkyard, sad to say its seen better days. I grabbed the piece I needed and noticed that it had something I had only seen on here. I considered grabbing it and the switch and selling it on here but would wait till a later date. I headed back down and asked the guy how much do I owe him for the piece, "I don't know what that is so just take it with ya". The response everyone loves to hear. There is a Subaru dealership about ten minutes from there so I decided to take GD's advice and try and purchase some plastic clips for the brat to hold my center caps on. $11.24 a piece talked me out of it for a while. I considered that since I was there I would have my picture made with an STi. Talking to the salesman a little more, I managed to talk him into letting me drive that black wrx as seen on the left side in the above picture. First time driving a turbocharged car and it made me believe in a higher power:banana:. Wrapped things up and decided to head back home on the way my brat hit 232K. A great sight anyday of the week. Hope you all enjoyed my narrative of subaru adventures in eastern Tennessee.

Its pretty bad being in the southeast. 70% of the board is located in the Pacific Northwest. Id love the idea of southern subaru meet.

My main question was if the turbo brat was still autotragic or was a dual range swapped over?

Bingo!

So what did you finally find to be the problem?

Make the wife/girlfriend eat more organic foods.

The bulbs that I got said 74 on them. I believe they were sylvania. About the size of a booger.

We should call that number and tell todd there was a major f-up.

If this is so about head gasket failure. What makes the STi 2.5 any better?

Seeing that dual-range lever makes me nostalgic and warm inside. Ill go stare at the one in my brat to pass the time this Christmas season.

I ended up driving all day to the various wal-marts and autozones today looking for them. Last place I went to had them and made me very estatic. My dash lights up like a christmas tree now.

My brat's heater control doesn't have the bulbs in them so I am forced to guess when driving at night. I just took the thing out and saw that there is two empty electrical outlets there. Cross-referenced with my chiltons manual and confirmed that bulbs should infact go there. What bulb goes there? I.E.: name, or part number or wattage or something. Thanks, Kyle.

Whatever you do, be careful. To quote Christmas Vacation:"I don't want to spend the holidays dead!"

That kind of stuff makes me nervous.

I wasn't aware there was such a thing as a "muffler bearing". Does this fall into the same category as "synthetic turn signal fluid"?

Does the fact that on my insurance card is says that the brat is classified as a "sport wagon"?

Where is the video you took from the back of the brat?

100% Correct. A couple days ago, someone who couldn't add too well figured up the combined weight of some bearings there were suppose to go out. Instead they figured up wrong and came to be 1500~ over! Ended up costing the company $10,000 extra. We cover cost of shipping on most things.

Everyone wants a brat is why.

The growling sound to me sounds like you dont have a good connnection on your positive terminal. Check for corrosion first. Then have a friend get in the car if the corrosion thing doesn't work and try to start it by wiggling the positive around and hope that you get a good connection.

I get ya now.
