Subaru Slow?
Right he is... I think those cars make something like 110 hp at the wheels in stock form...I could be wrong, though.

Um, I think you must have been under the influence of some illegal substance in school. Mine were always plain colors, dude...

Nice! Welcome aboard!

air lockable differentials?
But anyway... Subarus should perform of-road excellently with air lockers. Finding a proper application is the hard part. I can't seem to find very many applications for the air lockers...except Toyotas and Dana axles.

You are so going to Subaru Hell. But that's okay...I am too...

94 loyale - How to tighten drive belts?
Don't make it too tight...I did that with an older belt a few weeks ago and it snapped the next day, 27 miles from work, 35 miles from home...it was a mess.

Who wants to drop $30k on this baby!
Seen a '90 without 'em... Had a '91 with 'em... Friend's got a '93 with 'em... I've also got a '93 with 'em... Just luck 'o' the draw.

New owners of an '01 Brighton wagon!
burtonsnowman replied to JM1NA's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXWait a minute...I thought the EJ22 was phased out of the Legacy by the 2000 model year... ???

New owners of an '01 Brighton wagon!
burtonsnowman replied to JM1NA's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXHuh...I didn't even know they made Brightons in '01. I thought they were only the last generation ('95-'99). Anyway, congrats on your new Sube! You'll love it like the rest of us! Treat it with respect, and it will do the same in return.

engine rpm
What year? That will determine which engine/transmission we're dealing with...

New subie in my future.....thoughts?
burtonsnowman replied to goatman's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIf you could ever find one... Like needles in haystacks, I tell you...

air lockable differentials?
They would suck for autoX... Plus, you would add a ton of (unnecessary) weight. I'm putting one (maybe two) in my Jeep this summer. I'll let you know how the performance is. (Oops, outed myself...yes, I own a Jeep. Sorry, guys.) Here is the ARB site. They're based in Australia (in case you care).

Low Fuel Light???
burtonsnowman replied to jonfit04's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXOkay...I guess mine has one, it's just really tough to see the spot for it and it don't work. Not that I really care... When the tank gets low, I fill it up...

Ram Engines Did it again!
:eek:I want my EA81s to be fuel injected...

Who wants to drop $30k on this baby!
I'll take it... Two, in fact...

Thought this might get a laugh
Nice...

air lockable differentials?
I didn't talk them down... Okay, y'all go ahead and put your air lockers on your Subes! And nipper! Never wish the evil of HG failure on a fellow partner in Subes! That's just terrible!

Low Fuel Light???
burtonsnowman replied to jonfit04's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXOh...you'd better... Maybe my light don't work. (Which is entirely feasible...) That is strange, though. I know the previous owner, who said it didn't have one...That covers the last 180k miles. I guess something happened to it in the first 40k, before she or I owned it.

No more music...
burtonsnowman replied to jsaudy's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXCheck all the wiring...
-
air lockable differentials?
ARB Lockers are hot stuff, but they're expensive... Might not be worth it on the Subaru (oops, didn't mean to say that. I'm so going to get beat up now). ARB Air Locker ~ $700 ARB Compressor ~ $220

burtonsnowman replied to jonfit04's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXGot a '92 Legacy. Pretty sure there's no light.

2.5 DOHC to SOHC swap questions
burtonsnowman replied to XSNRG's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXWait a minute... Isn't '99 a SOHC anyway? I thought that was the year they changed it.

EA-sized blower
You would need more power than the blower could provide just to run the blower...with all the weight and electrical juice required, you would lose power...
-
HID's for Old Subies?
Rice-tint blue...I love it... He's right. The look 'clear' and 'crisp', not ricey. I popped some in my old car (240SX) and was very pleased...I don't know why the Subes don't have them yet...

Please shed your opinion - 97 OB turbo'd EJ22/25
burtonsnowman replied to Skip's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXNah...it'll get more attention here. Do you have any pics of your project? I like your idea... I would be worried about the ECU, though. p.s. Latrobe, PA is also the former home of Fred (Mister) Rogers - the greatest dude (after Chick Norris) ever born in the USA.
