You know what really bothers me.. in Europe I guess it was an option but 2nd gen wagons had a VLSD And yeah I was looking at the prices of Kazz it's friken $1,000 From what I understand any rear LSD has to fit the R-160 right?

That's what im going to do this month I still want a rear LSD how but at a later date.

I took the battery out of the car to check it and clean it up a little. out of the car about 30 min or so it's reading 13.2

Like I said before reading the voltage from the OBDII port in the program torque was not good since it was almost 1 V off It was showing 13.1 but with my meter it reads 14.3V

Where the turn signal bulb would go I took off the front cover.

Should not be a problem for me but you are the first i've heard about gel batteries and not wanting to start after sitting awhile.

Only reason why I would get the one in the link is it's a AGM battery I had a interstate in the old car before it got stuck under the hood but yeah I agree it's one of the better batteries that you can buy.

yeah that's why I said I was looking for another battery and asked if anyone has used the exide AGM batteries. As far as the terminals I had planned to change them because I was going to put amps in the car.. I wish when people buy a battery they pull the dots of the date of purchase so people can get an idea how old they are. Pretty sure the battery is Group 35? http://www.amazon.com/Exide-Orbital-ORB75DT-108-Automotive-Battery/dp/B0009H516C/ref=au_pf_ss_3?ie=UTF8&Model=Legacy|64&n=15684181&s=automotive&Make=Subaru|13&Year=1997|1997&carId=001

I'm going to end up replacing this battery in a few weeks

Clear lens? the JDM does not have a clear lens but a amber one and I left it because Amber Luxeon LEd's are more sensitive to heat then any other color.

Both are pretty bad I'm going to guess its a little leak in the terminal post area. Also rear defroster not working due to broken lines got cold too fast to fix the rest.

Got curious so I checked the voltage at the battery after 9 hours of rest and had 12.8v with the car running I had 14.1 I had all loads on when starting. The funny thing is when I leave for work early in the morning I have no issue.. when I leave work at 9am and say crank with the seat heater on it only cranks half a crank before it stopped. It must be the battery age.

I was looking at Torque today and the voltage at the OBD II port with the car running was between 13V and 13.1V seems a tad low no? My old Legacy was like 14V running.. but it started to give out near the last few weeks I had the car.. This one has a Subaru reman alternator. Before I started the car the voltage was 11.8V and that was with the driver's seat heater on as well. The battery is of an unknown age but it can't last forever.. having said that i'm looking for a replacement.. Anyone try those Exide AGM batteries? Or should I just get the interstate again? I wished I could of saved my old one but when the body got hit it pretty much made it impossible to get out.. Sucks less then a year old battery.

Fuel Pressure Regulator.

I made a trip awhile back from CT to MI held 60 MPH the whole way.. but I did so for other reasons.. but I got decent MPG given then gear I was in and the one missing.

Not sure what much is to check here since the battery at rest is around 10.8 V

Thanks GD, I've got a clamp meter here just have to find it. it's just weird that everything hinges on the seat heater thinking how much the starter pulls.. It's maybe a half a turn with the heater on and with it off it starts.. Oh well gives me reason to replace the battery anyways.

Does anyone know how many amps it pulls? and is the heater on a timer? I ask about the amps because it seems my battery is on it's way out.. and having just the seat heater on while starting is not enough to turn it over but it is when it's off.

lol it cost me $68 for just the front alone.. at least the rear is a tiny bit cheaper. The sockets for the turn signals are perfect for the 40 mm round heatsinks

LED retrofit

Finally got one side of my JDM headlights done with the LED retrofit.. geez took forever just for the order from Canada to come in. interesting part is how the JDM and USDM front turn signals work.. JDM is Two wire and USDM is 3 wire.

Reason why I was asking

Thanks.. haha I went out yesterday and ended up pulling the lights to check for sure just the fronts I was concerned about.

It's showing under the hood on the pump at least in the service manual.
