simbey1982 replied to habib99's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXto get to the flywheel you have to take the entire tranny x member off....getting to flywheel = taking out tranny and yes the engine will be fine on its mounts

Trouble Quick starting after long stops heat
Hello all, Throwing this out there to see what you all think. Here are the symtoms. 1. At the last rallyX there were stops on the course...i would slide to a stop pause for a second and then go....problem is the car had like 20% power until i pushed in the clutch revved it and dropped it again....did this everytime pretty much. 2. It does the above mentioned when the engine gets very hot Now what i was thinking was gas sloshing around therefore the fuel delivery is a little delayed, or perhaps a fuel filter? someone suggested vapor lock which i am not too familiar with.....any tips on the problem and solution would be great as it sucks my times down...thanks Cory

"new" transmission and now torque bind?
simbey1982 replied to badjer's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXtourqe bind is a knocking sound that kind of shakes the car...mine was always present at more speed than slow.....i would look elsewhere.....PS its also more prevalent in AT....but check your tire pressure....have a 4 wheel alignment done, and balance your tires

Turbo Leg front brake conv. what you think?
simbey1982 replied to simbey1982's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXWell i have the smaller discs....and probabally the single pot calipers. I can get the calipers with the rotors as well as the back plates....anything else i may need..?? I think they will fit in my 15's but will check...thanks for the info

Another: "What is my diff ratio" Q
simbey1982 replied to NorthWet's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThe chart i have says the manuals were 4.11 http://www.rallispec.com/Transmission%20chart.htm So it would make sense that the auto was 3.9......though when looking up the part numbers it says they are for both AT & MT so its probabally 4.11....my buddy has a used 4.11 he may sell if your interested...Portland also though http://www.subaruparts.com/diag/?model=5&year=1993&style=RS&body=&scn=1&category=195-1

Turbo Leg front brake conv. what you think?
Well yet another conversion of my subaru....well mostly impreza....ive got a lead on the stuff for a front disc conversion to turbo leg. From what i see the rotor is about an inch bigger in diameter...is there also more pad surface??? would this create noticably better brake response and stopping speed?? anyone done this?? let me know Cory

normal AWD resistance?
simbey1982 replied to Midwst's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXno its not really normal to have torque bind.....believe me its a headache...so stay away from it if you dont want to take the risk.....other things that can cause torque bind is uneven tire pressure and bad alignment check those Cory
