95 leg AWD towed at college.
dgerard replied to johnceggleston's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXWRONG. The tow company is liable for all damages that they do to your car because of their negligence. Towing an AWD car with wheels on the ground is well recognized gross negligence. This is a moot point now. The original poster found out it was towed correctly, at least he was told that....

Clock issues?
dgerard replied to Sweet82's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThe LIG conection is hot when you have the dashboard lights on...It dims the clock when voltage is detected on that terminal. DG

How to run both foglight and highbeams together?
dgerard replied to adam_h's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXHuh? "Full beams" and fog lights? By "full beams" do you mean the same as high beams? If so, you are clearly wired up wrong. The fogs on US cars only work with the low beam headlights on, no other way...

dgerard replied to adam_h's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXYour car must be different than those here in the US. Our fogs ONLY work with the low beams on; not with the high beams, and not with parking lights only. We also do not have rear fog lights (though my Volvo has ONE).

Intake mod on 1.8L
dgerard replied to dgerard's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXSorry, I can't access that image without passwords, etc. Can you post it somewhere else? Since I have already removed the bottom of the airbox, perhaps this is a moot point.

Intake mod on 1.8L
dgerard replied to dgerard's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI put a K&N filter as the first "mod". Also a Stromung catback exhaust (2.5") and have also removed the snorkus. Lastly, I cut out the bottom of the airbox that contains the filter. Guess that's all I can do.... The hp gained is substantial...at least that's what the seat of my pants says!

dgerard replied to adam_h's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXA clear advantage of this re-wiring is the ability to use the foglights WITHOUT the headlights on at all. On the dark country roads near me I'd welcome this choice in thick fog.

Intake mod on 1.8L
There are lots of cold air intake choices for the 2.2L Imprezas, but none for the 1.8L engine. Will a 2.2L mod with cone filter fit a 1.8L '95 Impreza manual? If not, where does it differ?

Impreza rear drum brakes
dgerard replied to SUBARU3's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI don't see how it could be done wrong. The lugnuts are torqued down each time. The drums were replaced and then turned true. Could the pads be causing this? Perhaps I should "scuff" them. How about drivetrain issues? This car has 177,000 milies on it!

Impreza rear drum brakes
dgerard replied to SUBARU3's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXCan't say that about my '95 Impreza rear drums. I have rear brake pulsation that I have replaced the drums for & resurfaced the drums more than once. The pulsation goes away for a thousand miles and comes back.
