  1. Get these: KYB GR2 for XT 2WD 234029 and 234030 http://www.importperformance.com/store/234029 The XT struts are the shortest ones. Put an uprated spring on it, say the 250 lb 10 in tall ones im running...and whamo. 4WD struts are the tallest. 2WD sedan/wag/coupe being shorter...XT being shotest.
  2. Give me $500 and it'll be done. Thats why im with stock stuff for the moment.
  3. Done. LOL The spare tire mount...I took a sledge to it to flatten it down level with the rest of the spare tire area, otherwise the IC would be too far up in the engine bay and hte hood would not shut. Thats my boost control solenoid mounted on the drivers side of the IC there incase anyone is wondering.
  4. I've got the GReddy PRofect B-SPec II and I love it! I run ~14 PSI on the high side, and stock on Lo. The RX is now IC'ed with a WRX unit...and I also have the TWE pipes. ECU and junk is stock otherwise. My only problems is the REAL fuel cut, and the gremlin fuel cut that i have issues with.
  5. So...WRX TMIC made its way on the RX this morning. 14 PSI....oh yeah!! Stronger and faster than the wagon! I believe at this point the car is ready to go after stock WRX 1/4 mile times.... BUT! The big catch....the clutch is starting to slip a little where the TQ peaks.... Stock clutches are no good for those getting real power put of these things... What ta do what ta do... Ok...I cant keep it a secret...here's my plans... Get a stock 2.5 RS clutch, and stock RX clutch (4WD/turbo anything gen 3) and take measurments. I know the spline counts are the same....Warp3's going o be replacing his Kevelar clutch soon with a stock one (as the Kev. on stock pressure with the car's HP when it gets hot...SLIPS to no end)....so hopefully I can get that, and have the pre plate rebuilt for 50% more presure...and wham! new clutch for me.
  6. Tell Dale to get you the EBC green stuff for the 14" legacy brakes....tell him Will sent you. I got those from him. (boxer4racing.com) Also...dont waste the $ on the brembo rotors...those are just OEM replacements...the $20 rotor from NAPA is pretty much the same thing. Almost any noise is normal on a sube....lol....seriously, i would not worry about it. I think its the fuel tank pressure releif junk doing its job.
  7. OMG...my WRX IC is installed...and its SO much faster now...
  8. Now man...IC on t3h RX now...OMG its fo much faster than the wagon ever was now...
  9. I cant veiw the file. JF2AG56B3KG801488 1989 Retired (Was mine, now JWX). JF2AG56B0JG802855 1988 Fine running condition, Was Pleiades, was mine, now JWX. JF2AG56B6HG809755 1987 Was mine, then Pleiades, now mine again. Grassroots motorsports 2004 challenge car...now autocross monster/dailydriver in excellent condition all around.
  10. wait, I just remembered...MS comes with its own.
  11. No. Folgers has 4 of them in stock right now.
  12. 100% agreement. If that doesnt work...might try taking the motor assy apart and cleaning/relubing it and putting it abck together...
  13. That and its just TOO VALUABLE/RARE of a car just to sell off like that....
  14. im sure someone in the NW could lend you a hand in getting the HG replaced. 11044AA013 is the HG part number. Its an easy thing to do.
  15. yeah, I did that on my GL-10 when I did the whole light bar mod...
  16. THATS RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!! ITS A MAP!!! Has it got a PN on it???!??!?!?!
  17. Or I could go for that flat black look.
  18. find the same brand tires as you ahve now, and replace the front only...that way you ahve 4 same brand tires....and rotate them.
  19. So you can turbo it. I really dont know. It might be the sensor that opens the boost flaps...aka the secondaries....maybe? Im just guessing.
  20. So tomorrow is supposed to rain again...but should be enough non-rain time to get the IC installed correctly so I wont have to baby sit the pipes under high boost like I had to on the wagon...since the piping is version 496.222.2080-B Spec 4RAC or something like that.... The hood on the RX is perfect(white, duh). The hood on the wagon is perfect (light blue). The hood that I have extra was on the wagon...and is OK looking..has some minor scapes and dings...but its got the hood scoop already on it...and ofcourse, its light blue. Do I risk trying to paint it tomorrow? Or do i drive around with a blue hood that says boxer4racing/spazchicken productions on it? (i dont mind the decals...as the RX already has decals... ) What ta do...what ta do...
  21. Not likely....cuz now i will have t3h mon3y!!!
  22. get the whole car. Rear rotors last I check can be used on 4WD. Its the hubs that are different.
