  1. Nokian (Hakkapelita) Or Blizzaks will work perfectly. I have Hakka's for my Impreza's winter use, love them cheers, Jamie
  2. Sounds like the transfer clutches in your Tranny have gone bad Unfortunately, with high of mileage, this is quite a common issue..... You may want to get it diagnosed? but if it's 2wd only, likely that's the source of your problem. and $$$$ to fix... Jamie
  3. quite the coveted item. $100ish new and DISCOUNTED from a dealership (lemme know if i can help) if you can find one cheaper on Ebay or in a salvage yard, you better buy it good luck! Jamie
  4. very common to have these bulbs burn out any dealership can help you need: 1 - 72351ac051 2 of 72351ac061 commonly referred to as mode control bulbs. get these, take the dash apart, replace cheers Jamie
  5. um yeah... and i also have a full column inside and my rally car was featured in the article on the Rim of the World rally... thanks for the kudos... Jamie
  6. depends... could also be signs of an external head gasket leak... vs internal. really needs a sniffer test done to be certain. my GT never overheated at hwy speeds only at idle..... and not only did the HG's go... i melted the block in my ignorance Jamie
  7. actually front control arms are known as transverse links could be the bushes could also be wheel bearing or cv issue could even furthermore be bad tie rod ends i'd suggest taking a look at those particular items. Jamie www.subiegal.com
  8. sounds very very much like head gasket failure to me. have a hydracarbon sniffer test done.... you can change 1000 radiator hoses and 1000 thermostats.... if the HG's go.. the symptoms will remain. Jamie www.subiegal.com

  14. what's the big deal? why not use it as is? driers in the AC keep the car from fogging up and are a god send my AC is on everytime i get into the car no matter what the season. Jamie
  15. you better get that check engine code pulled... fast flashing check engine light = bad bad bad medicine steady light is not so bad but flashing meanst stop driving the car.. now.. or else car is trying to tell you something you are best off parking it and finding out what the issue is. Jamie
  16. never ever needed chains on any awd car i've owned get good snow tires, and you wont either Jamie
  17. sounds like the tranny is at the end of it's life missed or rough shifts = slipping tranny slipping tranny = dying tranny best off to plan to buy a rebuilt tranny, or a new car soon good luck Jamie
  18. easy step by step...how to change the fuel filter. see: http://www.ravensblade-impreza.com/modifications/drivetrain/ffilter/ffilter.html jamie
  19. 98 = 2.5 DOHC = head gasket issues has the car been checked out? Forester is such a nice car.... Jamie
  20. watch those offsets on non subaru wheels just stay in the 48mm area and you'll be okay oh and not all 5 lugs are the same the new sti's have a completely different bolt pattern it's no longer 5 x100 cheers jamie

  22. you want some nice replacement rotors or Original Equipment? I can get you OE 20% off There are lots of options tho EBC, Brembo, DBA, etc. shout if you have questions Jamie
  23. i toasted a clutch in 2k miles!!! <---seriously! it's easy to do - aggressive driving, too much clutch slippage, too much riding the clutch and it's easy to SEE as a mechanic, once you've removed the clutch from the car mileage on things like clutch/brakes means very little. it really varies by driving style wish you the best of luck! Jamie
  24. service manual: http://techinfo.subaru.com The older prezzy is a solid car. You will need timing belt, oil pump reseal, water pump and rear cam seals likely... if they have not been done... but typically, replace those and the car will run like new. how many miles? any idea if the timing belt has been done? is it leaking oil at this time? (a lot of the older ones do) Jamie
