[I have completed yet another step towards RX completion...*56k DIAF*]

OBX=aftermarket.

 

Its a helical instead of a clutch or planetary.

 

Very similar to the Quaife ATB, and nearly idetical to the 05+ STi front diff, but for the 5MT.

 

make sure you let us know if it blows up!

[Timing belt mileage records?]

my last few cars I've changed the belt when I got them as I couldn't be sure they had ever been replaced..

 

the xt6 I'm driving now, I still haven't replaced it. or even taken the t-belt covers off....

 

setting myself up for failure, as we speak

[subaru demolition derby]

that will buff out!

 

 

fixed!

[port spfi heads (modify)?]

do I see blood right next to the "intake port" picture?

[Going to Harrys U Pull It]

crap!!

 

my brother needs an EJ22 badly for his girlfriend's impreza... let me know if they have a few down there

[4EAT Center Diff Lock Question]

I drove my legacy hard and far from whenever that long thread was until a couple of months ago, and if anything the transmission acted less "funny" with age.. the car is parked right now simply because I don't want to maintain it anymore??

 

I never had transmission temp light issues, either, with just a regular switch I had from something else wired in. hell, I never even soldered the wires because I forgot. they are twisted and heat shrinked.

 

 

(again, do this at your own risk.)

[It's Halloween! My favorite!]

You're invited to my 32nd annual Halloween Party right here, where it all started in Salem, Massachusetts! October 28 from 4 pm on... let me know by PM or email...

 

wish I could make it but I have made plans already

 

have a good time everyone!

[Wheel balancing powder??]

I like the stick-on weights.

 

my dad made a wheel balancer and it works good

[There's something strange about my parts RX]

Reminds me, I need to pull rear shoulder belts from a Loyale for the wagon. My passengars and I would feel safer with shoulder belts. The wagon has sort of become the unofficial caravan of the band after football games... The back seat gets used quite often.

 

[in colorado RIGHT NOW]

I'm in colorado until wednesday afternoon...

 

staying at the omni in broomfield.

 

about to go to the hotel bar and get drunk or play pool with some guys in suits....

 

call me at 315261202 if you feel like hanging out, or just show up at the hotel bar I've gotta be at work at 8:30am but I'll probably be at the bar until midnight or so

[Anyone built a Doran?]

yes

 

 

 

you would be way ahead if you use the doner cars windshield,steering set up, foot pedals, seat , doors with working seals and windows ,, if you have to fab this all up your self its alot of engineering , so go for it grad a junker and hack it up just keep the bare esentuals , reduce weight

 

I saw a geo metro just like this... front end was geo metro, back end was a motorcycle

 

it was crazy :drunk:

[Update on Buckys Old Electrical Gremlins]

hooray for music :headbang:

 

I've been riding in the xt6 with no music since I put it on the road.. I've had a stereo but no speakers worth installing.

 

my girlfriend's wonderful mother donated some sony xplod speakers for the cause and I'm putting them in tonight

[Splitgate Gos to the Drive-In!]

that is a sweet wagon!!

 

 

and.... brownies eh?

[Clunk/Snap when taking off...]

I've got basically the same clunk, and know for a fact that my transmission mount is bad... but I still can't guarantee that's what the issue is

[Tein Flex for RX]

you just like to make them squirm, don't you

[Damaged Dashboard?]

I have what I believe to be a gen-1 brat dash COVER that I got from a board member... sounds like this is basically what you are talking about?

 

 

 

it's like this: http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/Product/tf-Browse/s-10101/Pr-p_Product.CATENTRY_ID:2008202/p-2008202/N-111+10201+600013239/c-10101

[Pics from yesterday's PRG rallycross]

looks like fun, thanks for sharing!

[ford taurus map light on loyale = pics inside]

I remember seeing a post one time where someone put an xt6 maplight in their ea82... maybe it was in USRM? don't remember

[99 Outback Head Gasket question]

try the newer gen forum... I'm sure there are tons of posts about this there

[I finally worked on my brakes]

Only problem I have found with it all now that it is working is there isn't much meat on the new shoes and it leaves the adjusters close to full adjust which leaves not much more adjustment... How many times can you put the word adjust in a sentence?

 

I would have to say that I would be able to adjust that sentence in order to squeeze the word adjust in a few more times with only a few minor adjustments.

[My car has an unfriendly tenant]

man spray that thing up with carb cleaner or something and kill it!!! i guess he already lost a leg somewhere

 

i hate spiders:-\ especially big ones, and ones that hiss:confused:

 

he/she/it isn't harming anything

 

 

leave the poor spidren alone

[Any New England meets?]

there are some rallyx's around... look for "NER" .. there is also one near albany oct 1 that I'm planning on running the xt6 in

[Had a bit of fun last night, got pics]

Derrick, I will NOT go wheelin' with you if you ever wear a thong, in fact, i will set your wagon on fire

 

I have no thongs....

 

may want to worry more about me showing up "bare"

[RX is back on the road]

[Had a bit of fun last night, got pics]

I have no idea what's going on
