How'd it catch on fire?

Rear won't work. It's a completely different rear suspension design.

They do make strut top lifts for those cars. Usually only an inch, but bigger is possible. But even with an inch, you can fit bigger tires to give it a bit more height as well.

No. As they already said, subaru or six star head gaskets are the only ones you want.

Beautiful area. I recently worked up there helping to restore power for a few weeks.

All EA82 heads crack that way. Not just the turbo ones. It's most likely the head gaskets. The EA82 turbos were known for overheating issues.

Most like you'll have to have something made. Also, check out mainelysubarus.com, I notice you're from Maine, and it's a much more local forum.

What part of New Brunswick? I was recently up there for a few weeks helping restore power after the hurricane.

Highguyslifts.com or Gloyale on here does harness jobs for less than that. I think it's around $180

Send him a pm on here.

Fronts are easier than rears! No press needed. Just a brass punch and a hammer and some patience!

But much more reliable. Doesn't have the same head gasket issues, and as a rule, holds up to anything you throw at it, much better than the ej25.

No. Legacy and Impreza are completely different in terms of body parts.

Forester springs won't be a lot different than the outback springs. And the only forester springs that will fit 2000+ outbacks are 09+ foresters. But they will not do much.

I really hope that's all it was. We did try another maf with the same results, but I suppose if the connector had a bad spot, that'd be why that didn't work either. Can't wait to get this done! Whenever I finally get home from working in Canada anyway.

Turbo is 3.7 it should be labeled on the rear diff.

If you haven't seen anything about sjr lifts being bent or twisted, search more.

That was actually already done. At this point the harness is pulled out.

Yes he still makes them. Highguyslifts.com Great to deal with too.

I ran tires that were just under 27" on my brat that was lifted 2". It worked well. Still had a decent amount of power. I recommend Highguyslifts.com for a lift. They are built stronger, and he is great to deal with.

98-08 forester struts will bolt on. Any 02-07 impreza, 95-99 legacy, or 98-08 forester will all bolt on to each other.

I'd do it on the car for sure. But if you don't use sand, it might not bend as smooth and might buckle the snorkel. So you'd have to take it off to add and remove the sand.

Will you be removing it to fill/empty it with sand? If so you should totally make me a template to line it up in the right spot on the fender!

Actually there's 2 wires that come from the ecu that send the signal for the fans to turn on. You then use one of those wires to hook up your own relay to turn on the fan(s) when the ecu senses the right temp. And yes, both come on at the same time. Mine was running, just couldn't get it to rev past 4k. We tried everything. We are swapping out the harness and ecu to an obd1 setup thanks to Gloyale.

It's red easy to wire it up to be ecu controlled. That's how mine are. I have 2 12" fans. They look like the same brand as you have.
