True2Blue

i didn't post it here in the o/r area it was moved here..... and Ive met both you and rob i met you in seattle when we both went to look at the same 79 brat and i met rob in enumclaw (bought the diff.). i like rob hes a nice guy. the bumpers haven't come yet so my "mods" arnt looking so hot to the older guys. soon tho.. soon i STILL have the welded diff i bought from rob a few years back as well. again the winch is more for pulling people out of ditches when it snows. (im that guy that goes around helping stranded people so they don't have to pay a tow bill) but ill keep posting my pics and progress and hopefully get some good reviews:grin:

this is one of the sickest lookin ru's out.. NICE JOB!

long time no talk reid.. nice ru.. be sure to post pics of it!

all new windshield wiper (Bosch uni bar style) and today i blew a heater core line so i replaced both of those:-\ whats next:confused: lol

oh man i know.. i saw it and i was like "$300 thats a deal!" but we will see what happens. ill prolly go with a 6k. at the end i bet it felt good to pull that guy out:lol:

there's criticism and then there's sarcasm with a touch of commonsense. ill lighten up though. cant get mad at me for not (in my mind) taking ego blows from ppl. my thread says whats to come and ppl obviously dont even read it cause they keep telling me what i should do and i already said at the beginning i was gonna do that. redundancy is bliss i guess. ill lighten up:)

thats what half of the sight is about. and im not bragging im showin my love for my subaru. i priced out the system not everything else. after all i was first told on here i was polishing a turd.... all in all i get what ur sayin. i just took offense cause mommy and daddy didn't hand me anything EVER i raised myself and went to Iraq (Al taqqadum, Baghdad, Al Asad) so i could do this kinda stuff... i earned it.. so sorry if i seem like im bragging or anything along those lines. i don't wanna put a lemon face on anyone here

wow... really? yea an alarm system is going in. and yes i WILL hear someone breaking into my subaru if they get that far. and rob... come on man............ i wish people would think that im a decent kind person for just one minute.. i wont go to a packed camp sight and BLAST music.. i will if there's not many people around. and i will ask before i blast if i am close to them, i don't want problems. that, and im not an *********************.

jesus me too.. im waiting on my 0 guage dual amp kit to come along with my new box and rear door speakers.. the yellow top handles the draw pretty damn good. and 18 farads give the battery protection as well as the alternator my pics are continuing on this thread http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=110907&page=2

thanks man.. i put alotta time and effort and money into my ride. its good to know someone likes my rig:)

sorry you came in late.. i didn't mean to neglect or offend... i wanted power doors.. (locks and windows) i was just going to gut some auto doors and convert mine instead of swapping out doors cause i like my paint job..

windows

thanks bud.. i lost those seats i bought from you when i went to iraq.. buddies mom threw them away.. talk about a loss lol.. still have everything else tho. hows the 2.0 wagon doin?

i was saving that for the end of the month.. a viper alarm is getting installed as well as a usp45 on my hip:lol: cant wait:)

NEW Lights! and cop-dar lol:burnout: the small driving lights are replacing the amber (orange) lights in the grille..... I DONT WANNA HEAR IT! These are 100% legal to have in your car as long as they dont obstruct you view.

thank you! my stock gm alternator did just fine with the subs POUNDING for 10 minutes while fine tuning the amps and it was under 90amps... i know what it will handle but i don't argue too much on here, i get nowhere fast. i just take the input and use whats useful lol. im going to start the install tomorrow im waiting on door speakers an amp kit and a sub box.... today.. im ordering my bumpers:banana: i bought paint and clear coat along with caulk for my electrical connections mainly grounds im cleaning all the surfaces then sealing them after connected. pics coming tonight

its okay people im 21 i know a few things not alot but a few. and i just removed this system out of my truck it was hooked up and bumpin im not stupid ive ran it before so i know its limits.. i have a few diplomas that say i know whats up as well. no more common sense bashing on true2blue please

anyone done this? tips? parts? pics?

i know ill be ultimately upgrading to 140amp gm alternator but for now im gonna do the maxima 90amp

i feel ya.. i know i bought it for 5k last year when i was iraq.. all NEW. so i depreciated it a bit for age. my 87 has a perfect condition stereo with all working speakers someone offered my $10 for it...:-\

Optima Yellow top Pic Says it

i looked at the gm 140 amp.. ill check into the maxima alternator. what year? napa is gonna ask 10 questions

Thanks that's good to know.. ill just run my day lighters no way.. ill just buy a winch AND my bumpers have front and rear receivers for the winch to fit on the front and rear. i like my bumps:grin:

Awesome guys.. I looked at alternators and no they dont make anything over 60 amp. so i have a 140amp coming to be fab'd in TODAY Tuesday April 6th the Subaru gets a optima yellow top. i thought about this water idea. i have a solution (you'll see in pics) my amps are going on the top of my triple sub box so no worry. I will have a roof rack with weather proof Yakima totes so not all cargo is lost im sure the setup will surprise you the sub box is perfect YES im sealing the floor with hurculiner and probably upgrading drain plugs i wont go through water with this.. well not so deep that it protrudes the doors. my reason for the tranny rebuild was rough shifting although there hasn't been any grinding i think the syncros are going out but it could be a mix of the lift and stretched linkage i don't expect this to win the hearts of very many guys on here cause they have beauty marked water logged wheelers. im a clean freak and if i could i would have a subaru for every "class" Strick gutted wagon wheeler, a wrx for my sporty fast ride, my current on for camping and exploring i plan on buying scotts 6" lifted wagon with no engine and ej it.. but one at a time for now (have a baby on the way so im limited yanno)

GD hello my friend. its been a few years since we've talked. i did my tour in Iraq.. wasn't bad.. Baghdad is nuts.. the 12k winch is for recovery of other vehicles as well as mine. and its cheap. so why not any ways alot of people see this rig and think "pure wheeler".. well YES and NO i do go off road. however, i will not put a dent in it. that will be another rig another time. this one is simply my commuter/camper with a bit of mild exploring. VERY GOOD input about the rx gear and thank you very much i will consider running a new 2.2 on my trans. after being rebuilt.. Now my explanation for the sound system. YOU totally stereotyped me. no i will not be blasting the stereo while in motion on trails. i need to hear whats going on.. the stereo is for going to awesome camp spots and playing some tunes while swimming or around the campfire. i didnt say i just sold my 375hp truck and pulled the sound system so im putting it in my Subaru cause no one will buy it for whats its worth. this will be my polished turd:grin: i hope i get to take it to the subaru meets
