my wife thinks that push starting a car involves using the brake. :-\ Oh well maybe someday.....

I'm in! tell me when (as long as it is after july 7th weekend)

you have a girlfriend???? do you have a pic of her you can put up on here????

1.Actually I have been known to lock up the brakes on those things once in awhile... 2. I killed a bird last night....he tried to eat the windshield of the rollback 3. ???????? 4. profit.

good you are all ok. Check at Harry's for some of the parts you will need... there was a good amount of impreza parts to choose from last time I was there.

Origionally posted by spacinjason on nasioc but I thought it would be good to have this info here too: If you have a newer subaru that the seatbelt chime goes off when the belt isn't buckled (maybe you are just sitting in a parking lot etc.) then this might just be your answer. Cutoff Function for Seat Belt warning chime (Works for the 2005 Outbacks and Legacys, too) Warning: I am in no way responsible for anyone’s safety...just posting this as a convenience. 1. Turn the key to “ON” (not running). 2. Fasten and unfasten the driver’s seat belt 20 times in 30 seconds, starting from when you actually turn on the key. (This will set the passenger seat as well). 3. Turn the ignition on, and you should be set. 4. Setting lasts until the battery is disconnected or the system is otherwise reset. 5. If you want to do this as a temporary thing (just for one driving period), fasten/unfasten the belt 3 times in 6 seconds. The chime will reset the next time the car is started. I got the above info from Scoobytrucks. If you go there to the Baja forum, you will find info on the seatbelt chime. The first time I did it I had tempory success, but chime returned the next day. Second time I did it was a success as I only get an initial six second chime when I start Baja. Spacinjason '06 Baja T MT

the one thing that in my opinion really makes that engine shine (to me) is the fact that it has a timing chain and not a belt like the 4 cyl does. Right there alone is $500 in savings of maintence that you don't have to do to the car. As for the premium gas thing: I think (my understanding) is that it will be fine with 87 in the tank but you are not going to get the full 212 or whatever HP out of it then. Another thing....does it have to be 92/93 oct? Maybe use the 89 instead?

Do it!!!! if you can afford to spend the money then get one....I personally am not a fan ONLY b/c i hate automatics but my wife would just about kill anyone to have one. I see one in my/our future but not for awhile though.

why not the wagon???? As for me/us: I would be interested if there is a cookout/group meet but i in no way have anything I am willing to wheel at this moment. Let me know if you plan a cookout and where and when and I might show up.

FUDGE!!!!!!! (you know what word I really mean) I'll keep an eye open if i see anything cheap. If i see anything...does it have to be AWD?

I could be wrong but isn't the high side and the low side different sizes making it almost "fool proof"? If not the caps on inputs have letters on them L and H As for did it help???? I didn't do it to the legacy yet and on every hot day we have around here I get reminded of it from the wife. I did it to a 95 OBS and yes it did help a lot.

if it makes you feel better my wifes 99 legacy is a little low on the coolness factor too. I and benebob have both used the "walmart can with the gauge on it" type of recharge and have both had good results. My buddy Ed has done it also to an Audi and something else and he had good results too.

I got something at autozone over the weekend and did the lights on my legacy and my moms legacy and it was freakin awesome. It comes in a kit and you use a drill to buff them with these special pads. I did a friends 98 Grand Cherokee (you know how they get really bad) and in a matter of minutes they were almost like factory new. oh and what I got at AZ was only $11

I don't think that applies to imprezas I think that difference is in the old school cars and turbo vs non turbo.

I spent almost $100 at harrys. If you can get it off a friend and do it for a little more then go that route...it might be easier in the end. We had a tough time getting them off at harry's...so we used a rechargable cut off wheel to cut the suspension (sshhhhhhh don't tell the people at harry's )

you would hope that people would notice not having their dash lights on but unfortunatlly I see this way too much..especially on foggy days. And yes DRL's are a little dimmer but not much. But, let me say this: here in america they are almost as bright...in Canada they are considerablely dimmer.

:lol: :lol: you know that stuff is pretty good for headaches.

LOOK the guy is asking how to do it...I don't think he cares about you driving with your lights on or how well you can read an eye chart.

EDIT: see what I was talking about. ^^^^^^^^^^ before anyone jumps on your a$$ for this... this topic was just discussed over on www.nasioc.com in the baja section. It is very good reading material and there are great pics to go along with it. I highly recomend not discussing this on this board. Every time someone asks this question people start fighting about it. :-\

I hear Weber is really nice... (GO wildcats) I have a friend that went there..he loved it.

Please take a bunch of pics.....I was planning on trying to make this (do a weekend trip) but I have some business to tend to on sat. morning and I couldn't even fly there and make it at a reasonable time... Take lots of pics folks and if this happens again... who knows...maybe. I kinda wanted a lifted something ride

You have never seen an AWD Passat because we didn't get them here in the USA...Lucky Canucks. That Passat with AWD and (if they would have put it in there) a TDi would be killer. Those darn Canucks also got heated seats in the Passat too. Arrrrgggghhhhhhh Matt (a former TDi passat owner)

....and with Fox I think he doesn't run t-belt covers. Good luck guys! sorry i am too far away to be of any help.

I know from a past personal experience...check the back end of it around the gas tank. The rot likes to hide back there and you don't know it till it is too late. Talk to Hocrest...I'd take his opinion anyday

link doesn't work....
