did you find it?

i don't need an explanation why or why not or anything. just a yes or no. when you put in your outback/forester struts into your legacy/forester did you lower the engine to straighted the CV joints? yes or no

there's one on the allied armament webpage and in their ad in subiesport

but good call on the body panels. i hadn't thought of that.

though i do agree with the body panels, you're jumping to conclusions about the subframe. unless this is proven, like you've proven the fenders, it's a moot point.

exactly, if it were any more than it is, i would be concerned.

i stated all of the pros and cons in the intial post. come on...stick with me here, get in the game.

i am in concurrence

depends what ej it is and how it's built. and i'm not sure how you see why that would be the case is all things are equal as far as ground clearance and tires

um, no. i bought outback struts from Monroe, took out the stock struts, loaded the struts with my old spring, and bolted them right back on. all it does is pull the control arms and axles and whatnot lower. why would you have to do anything to the engine. i did it about 6 months ago and have had no problems.

no, in that case i have a legacy with outback struts. i'm missing about 40 horses and 3/10 of a liter. not to mention the stock fog lights, red guage needles, door ajar picture in the dash, and the larger grill.

engine spacers? what are you talking about? i've just got a legacy with outback struts

ok, but there's someone here, i think with a lifted hatch that gets 8mpg

start one

unless you upgrade the rest of the brake system and honestly, the speedo won't be affected that much. i bumped up my tires by 5, count em' 5 sizes, and my speedo is 11% off. that's no big deal.

oh, yeah, i'm a big proponent of the "good feeling". that's why i've done to my car what i've done. i feel good driving it, no matter what people think of it, or even if they notice.

oh, and i'm not trying to argue, i just think it's fun to weigh the pros and cons

ok, lemme make a few clarifications when i said already lifted i meant outbacks only. i also was really thinking about the SUS over the wagon someone made a comment about the gen 1 2.5, sorry, i meant more specifically the tank that is the 2.2 i never said anything about the baja. anyway, to sum it up a little better, i meant my car. by the way, i came up with another pro for EJ: though there's no D/R we have found out recently that a 4x4 switch can be easily hooked up. i wheel my car every chance i get 96 Legacy LS 2.2 outback struts 205/75R15 Trail Mark APR cherry bomb snorklectomy and a couple of Hellas up front

it seems to me that with how much money some of you guys put into your ea's, you might as well buy an EJ legacy or better yet and outback (2nd gen) and you're already that much farther ahead of the game. Pros for buying an EJ: easier to find parts for already lifted more power easier to find stylin' more up-to-date safety more recognizable as a subaru will last longer Cons for buying an EJ: parts may be more expensive you may feel bad for beating up such a nice looking car the car itself is more expensive you may lose some of the "do-it-yourselftitude"

i'd go with burning plastic. try looking plastic that's burnt.

here's you go mattocs...these are at work in Wexford http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=3258 http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=3259

the only thing that worries me about hydrogen is that all that's emmited is water vapor. with all the cars on the planet emmiting all that water vapor (which would be more than an internal combstion engine) i'm afraid of adverse effects to rainfall. more water evaporating means higher humitity. could this be worse that global warming?? btw, i don't fall for the whole global warming thing, but that's not what this thread is about.

i don't disagree. in fact i think that's the smartest thing anyone's said here yet.

from Qman I'll reopen it. However, if you, or anyone else for that matter, lose it again it will be closed and deleted.

sounds to me that you got an ex-rally-racer. congrats!
