  1. I swear to god just do this. Buy a set of bright freaking Hella fogs, then buy a can of duplex yellow chrome spray paint, spray the fogs with this stuff and it will make them pure yellow but very see through in the sense that it won't look like you spray painted them but as if the lens itself is yellow. It looks great and I've done it on a few BMW's & VW's for my friends. I plan on doing it to my fogs if I get my outback bumper.
  2. really, wtf happened tot he wrx. It has lost all astetic appeal that made it a subaru.
  3. awesome dude! The fastest speed you've ever gone is 123mph? Granted that's fast but I've done 163mph on my 99 GSXR 750 using a satelite speedo wich is withing 1mph accurate. That's fast and scarry as hell lol, my friends done 206mph on his Busa
  4. So it was a body lift? seems wierd to make the body higher and leave everything else the same height. Still looks realy nice.
  5. Will this jdm BD5 front bumper fit my year? this is the front bumper I desire for my leg wagon: click here I also was wondering if this BD5 rear bumper trim would fit cause I need it too: click here thanks. I'm curious because I came across this picture and it's definatly my car with a bd5 bumper. were these bumpers on GT's or something? or just the japanese legs??? *what my car will look like lol.
  6. replace the cv joint reguardless but also check the tires for any abnormalitys, if there indeed is something wrong with a tire replace all 4.
  7. never bought an oem filter, never buy parts from dealers unless it's the only place to get the part lol.
  8. lol k, I've just been doing donuts lately with all of the rain and I dump it in first to get a good spin off, I've only done it in rain or in soft dirt.
  9. So dumping the clutch in first to "launch" or do a lil burn out is really bad for the awd? I thought it's made to withstand such abuse.
  10. It monsoons over where I live and where I work we have a parking lot the length of 2 football fields that no one parks in = drifters paradise lol. When it's rained I've taken out the wagon for some doughnuts and I've notice drifting/sliding in an awd car is the ultimate in drift handling, I can do figure 8's like nothing and is feels liek I'm gliding not trying to slide. It'svery controlled but I also notice doughnuts are big in an awd car not tight.
  11. I currently have the 95 EJ22 w/ 249k miles under the hood of my leg, I am 100% dedicated to transplanting a turbo motor once the 2.2 dies but I am stuck on wich turbo motor I should use and would be the easiest to swap, would the EJ22T be a direct swap and if so could I use the wiring harness in the car or do I need to switch the wiring with the brain?
  12. it was 106f here today, you''re lucky. My A/c blows cold but byt he time it gets to my body it warm lol.
  13. I figured the VC thing would overheat wich is the cause of the torque bind. Driving 700 miles @ 80-90 mph for 7 hours straight wouldn't overheat the VC?
  14. Ok so basically nip you're saying a manual awd subaru isn't good for cross country trips? cause I live 700 miles away from my parents and I plan on driving there once a month to be with family.
  15. Sounds like it's the hill holder. I disconnected mine because it was a PITA so back up on hills and having to rev the crap outta the motor to move wasn't my thing.
  16. I was about to say look at your wiring for frayed or chewed through parts int he insulation. We have plenty of pack rats here and they tend to make thier homes in the engine bay when left sitting, they just love to chew through wiring.
  17. What's wrong with this picture? You took it with a crappy camera phone and now we're stuck trying to figure out that nothing's wrong in the blurry picture and you're getting a kick out of this.. It's what I'm sticking to until I get an answer.
  18. really you don't say, well seeing as how one of my axles is clicking all of the sudden I'm gonna have to invest in a pair. Now please splain the tone ring Lucy .
  19. true but who's to say you can't put the stand right next to the jack.
  20. I just jack it up from the body lip right in front of the rear wheels and right behind the front wheels, no bending or tweaking.
  21. I have bosch Platinum +2's in there and don't seem to have any issues with the ignition system, runs very smooth. I'm a basic 'Bosch Super' copper person myself but I got these for free and figured hell I'll pop em in and give them a try, not disappointed.
