That is awesome!!!

aluminum contracts much more than steel. Might just be creating a tight tolerance between the shaft and bore. Maybe, just a thought. Yeah only use a light oil or silicone spray. Heavy lube will attract crap which will cause more wear than if you hadn't oiled it at all.

Replaced another dad gum driver CV axle. It was clicking before the height adjustment, then POP goes the weasel. One yank from a parts cow later, viola! I am really considering a pair of remans from Oreilly just for the lifetime warranty

25hp 27lb/ft In ANY legacy 90-94. thats enough for me

NEVER blow compressed air through ANY filter (air, oil, etc), not even a K&N. It makes "holes" in the filter media where larger particles can get through. Defeats the purpose of a filter.

freebie my friend's dad gave me. It'll work for now. I am gonna use some angle iron and make front and rear cross bars to make a surround/place to mount the lights to.

You all should just get out of the snow and just move to texas and stop killing your cars. My car has ONE spot of rust, only because of damage to the inner fender well that left bare metal (before I got the car) Not another speck on the car. We never salt our roads. We got plenty of places to wheel here too

you lucky bastards, I wish it would snow here, I would go play "hide the subaru" in plain sight.

hankook makes a buttload of 185/70 13's even some in studded and winter tires (i*pike), find someone who can order you a set of kooks. they are good tires

it should slide off. first get the cone washer out by tapping the hub with a hammer on the sides

is that a tumor on your wagon? anyways, I slapped on some rodeo 16" redrills! I painted them all black last night in the dark so they at least match now and I am getting 2 new (smaller) tires for the fronts to match the rears on saturday

Kennedy makes an adapter kit for ej to vw tranny, I would definitely use a 5 rib bus box to tame the torque. I was a type 1 guy but got tired of not having water in my flat-4. Mainly the lack of heat, and dead #3 cylinders (Texas heat kills the cylinder just below the oil cooler first)

I launched dirty on a few cars that way. They can catch up once I get to third, but usually are discuraged at that point that they got stomped by a 88 bread box. :lol:

Throttle body spacers are useless for ea engines. They suffer from fallout enough (puddling fuel in the throttle body), due to the tee intake design, and the pulse effect in the intake. the tornado is a gimmick. A $50 piece of stamped junk metal that "swirls" the intake charge. There was independent tests done on those proving that the "swirl" effect was eliminated as soon as turbulance was created anywhere in the intake. If you want to make more power from your car, just port/polish the heads, and then match the intake with a port of its own, port/polish the throttle body and add a small phenolic tb spacer to isolate it from the coolant passage. then get rid of the L boot and put a smoothed out intake pipe on the tb to the maf and use a cone filter. Hell eliminating the air box got me a few ponies according to the butt dyno. I just made an adapter to the maf, and used a spectre on mine.

Three words... Marvel Mystery Oil

I added a Pint of MMO to the engine oil and the TOD went away!!!!!!!1! :lol::lol::grin::grin::lol::lol:

my car began to make terrible noise last night on the way home from work. It just suddenly dropped oil pressure and began chattering. I guess this is what everyone refers to as Tick Of Death. I pulled over and checked the oil, only a half quart low. Guess I will be doing the turbo swap sooner rather than later.... I changed the oil as soon as I got home too, didn't help. 178k on the clock. I bought her with 162k for $780.

I live in Fort Worth Texas and we have dyno emissions testing, but we only have 2wd dyno's. The inspectors around here hardly ever see Subaru's and usually the dumbaas conclusion in the population is that all Subaru's are AWD and turbo charged. I just stick mine in 4HI and tell them its stuck in. It's really convincing if you do it before you get there and bind up the drive line a little before he road tests it :lol: sometimes the idiots don't even ask, they just two speed idle test them. Happened to my friend josh with his fwd impreza

+1

the axle is a 36mm you would need to disassemble the axles and install the ends into the hubs. They hold the hubs together

if you give it more gas and it doesn't do it, do a voltage sweep on the TPS. look for spikes or dips.

That won't add additional wear and stress to the spider gears or anything though... :-\ If I had to, I would keep them like they are and abandon 4wd unless really slippery. Just to save my front and rear diffs My car had one different size on the rear when I got it, It SUCKED. Binding and the occasional chirp from a tire just in a straight line. Took me till I did some research and found that there is no center diff...
