looks hot! a little rubbing is ok, just make sure it's not on anything sharp. if it's rubbing on the inside wheel well, where it's smooth, it's not really an issue, but if your catching the edge of the fender, it'll make quick work of those tires!

or go get something with an auto and AWD.....an early legacy, for example.... yes, the legacy motor/tranny swap can be done, but it's kinda ugly...

they won't look almost at all different.... look around, SJR, Noah, Tex, and Roundeye have 'em, just to name a few.

sweet! did Kris help you do that? or did you find another place? looks beefy!

you've also got a 6" lift, instead of just 4"...strut clearance isn't the issue on EA82's....body clearance is... Noah's got swampers on his DL, I'm sure he'll post a pic before too long

+1

I've heard great things about this, improves traction in virtually every condition, and helps reduce heat, and therefore wear, on road

well, it is a matter of driver preferance, and conditions, but for the most part, especiallly in the case of subarus, wider tires are a bad thing. mostly just more stuff to push around....my vote would be what you're getting... also...did you get different rims? I thought you were running 15" alloys?

um...money, time, parts availablility......that enough, that's why I haven't...

you're brakes are fine! as long as you've got 4 wheel discs, you won't need anything else. you're brakes are much better than mine, and I've had zero complaints about my brakes (well, as long as they're funcioning correctly)

you still have sway bars? :lol::-p:grin::eek:

^^ yep, and it's not [entirely] because of the tire, those rims aren't capable of much either

make sure your ignition system is sealed, my old '85 would do that if it got too deep, and if I opened my hood, I could see the coil arcing to the strut tower. also check your disty...

zap said they would work, period. it's just a matter of whether you use your impreza, or outback tops.

I don't know, but I do remember someone using it to monitor the manifold air temp....

I'm not sure which strut top will work, but the struts will work for sure. You need to understand, that this is a pretty rare modification, there are still only a few people in the country who've dont it, so alot of information just doesn't exist anyway, order the struts, when you get them, compare the strut tops with yours, and see which ones will work.

I don't know what kind of trails you hit, but out here the rocks would get it. I've bashed mine a few times, I've thought many times about taking it out, and putting a fuel cell in the car. But I just can't afford a project like that right now. maybe some other time.

I have heard of 3 people who have stripped out the rear output on the tranny running in RWD (well, 2 of them were tcased offroad rigs, but similar situation). All 3 were cases of abuse though, maybe don't flog it quite as hard as you normally would. It's quite tough, but not as tough as it used to be.

hmmm...so does the one on my hard drive you didn't miss anything, that's where it's supposed to end, apparently windows movie maker decided to add a few minutes of nothing to the end of it

I didn't have time to test run them...they both work? sound too?

Thanks to whoever stickied this! also, I was looking at the site, and I was wrong, we didn't raise $10k......it was $21k!!! We'd like to hit $50k this year! So if you can, please help

you're very welcome! My mom has MS too, so I've done everything I could to do this! singletrack, my engine seized a few weeks back, and I don't have time for an EJ swap now, and I don't want to rebuild and install an engine that'll be taken out for an EJ22 in 2 months.....so it'll rest until summer, but then, it will rise again!

I think this fits best here in the offroad section, since It's an offroad event....but it's raising money for MS, so it might be better placed in OT. Mods: move it if you feel necessary.... anyway....once again, I'll be running the Crawl 4 the Cure ( www.crawl4cure.org ) as many of you might remember, MorganM and I went last year, and had great success! IIRC, we raised somewhere around $10k!! This year, Morgan will be coming again, but in his new rig: a Zuk Samaurai.... since my wagon is dead, I bought his old wagon, and will be running it long story short: I would like to ask as many of you as can/would like to help. to do so. any donation will help, I do accept paypal, and any donation over $20, I will pay the paypal fees! I'm working with buddies to raise as much as possible, but the requirement is $200 per person.... pm me for info on donating (paypal addy, home addy if you'd like to send a check) ALSO: donations are tax deductable if allowed in your area....I can fill out a receipt and mail it to you upon request

nope, XT6 front calipers have the ebrake impreza ones don't soooo, if you don't want to work out a rear ebrake solution (there are a couple, do a search), just use XT6 stuff. if you don't mind working out the ebrake stuff, you can get much better brakes using impreza stuff...
