Spent the good part of my morning on the phone with the vendor. They agreed to send me a 6000k replacement kit and I just have to send back my 8000k with an RMA.

Yeah, I've read the debates on them across the forums and heard all the HID bashing from lots of people.

I have that sound on the passenger side you are referring to just not on the drivers side. I thought it was the relay at first but realized that it was too loud to be the relay. Swapping the bulbs confirmed that it was not a bulb problem. These were a Christmas gift from my dad and wife and have already contacted the people in the link. They're suppose to call me on Monday and probably feed me some jazz that I will have to take them off and ship them back to them, wait 2 weeks and get the replacements back. The parts do work, just at 95% of what it should.

8000k from here: http://www.hidxenonheadlights.com/ Their 8000k's are just like they show on the site, just a faint hit of blue.

I just got my HID kit installed, on my 2000 RS and am very happy. I have an issue where I only have a high beam on one side. Switched bulbs it stayed on that side so it ruled those out. I hear my relay clicking in the fuse box when switching them on and off. I contacted the company I ordered them from and they said I would contact me monday to help troubleshoot. Thanks guys.

I agree.

No turbo or intercooler. Yes, it is the model with the head gasket issues.

The Impreza is doing quite well. 90 mile a day commute and shes holding strong. I'll probably hang onto it till I graduate then more than likely upgrade to WRX. Still undecided if I will keep the RS or not.

If weather is nice tomorrow I might just give this anti-fouler trick a try on my RS.

Love it.

Rarely do we get any snow on the Cumberland Plateau that amounts to anything. When we do, we take advantage of the inch and a half Submitted for your approval, Impreza in yard version 2.5

Greetings from Crossville, fellow Tennessee member. Where/who did you get the SVX from?

Thanks for the tips guys. I will remember these when I go buy some new wipers in the next few days.

Looks like someone did the "gasket in a tube" fix for your intake gaskets. I been there, it sucks.

A few months ago, I spent close to $70 on some Michelin wipers for both my car and my wife's. These were the ones that contour the windshield and fold almost flush with it after installation. These things are GARBAGE! Both my car and her's are doing the same thing. The wipers will skip half the time across my windshield. When the wiper completes the first part of the cycle, it pulls more rainwater back into my field of vision. It also does not even wipe on the lowest 3 inches of the blade, its like its not even there. I seem to have never had good luck with wipers. USMB, please recommend me some new wipers.

My 2000 2.5RS had warped rotors when I bought it at 95k. I put two new front rotors on it soon after buying it along with pads and still had a violent front end vibration. I finally ended up just having to bite the bullet and have all 4 rotors turned. It was a completely different vehicle after that.

Here is from my old '83:

It sure was. We got a pretty good group of guys.

I approve of this post. Really cool stuff man.

Had our monthly meet yesterday at the Dragon. I had never ran it before and was really impressed with how my RS did. Alot of the WRX guys were running RE92 tires and I was out handling them in the corners. Here are the pics, enjoy: And one for Connie:

My vote goes for t-stat was well. Make sure and get the gasket that goes with the Subaru t-stat.

Thats a 98-01 2.5RS/OBS scoop in aspen white.

Yeah, just paint the thing and go with it. Least they put a Subaru scoop on there and not something from JC Whitney.

Its a great walkthrough, I followed it when I replaced the cable in my BRAT.

Just a tip. If you do have to replace the clutch cable, make sure and get it from the dealer.
