Stereo Install- Can I cut this?
the first stereo i put in my 84 i just left it hanging out a bit and you had to be carefull shifting into third. when i took it into get the tires replaced i told them that it is hard to get it into reverse and when they get to that point have me come and pull it out. well they didn't and in the prosess of fighting with the shifter ended up trashing my radio. i was pissed and they wouldn't do any thing about it. thankfully it was a cheap tape deck. the secound deck i put in there was around $400 and i put it at a slight angle so that it was in the console all the way. the next time i ad tires put on i told the people installing the tires about last time. and warned them that if they hurt it they would be buying me a new one. it was amazing they called me back to back the car out.

88 3 Door gl E-Brake not working
how worn are your front pads. i have noticed that the closer they get to worn out the more you have to pull up on the e-brake handle

Am I dumb??? What am I doing wrong??
build a spanner wrench. what i did was take a piece of metal about an inch wide and 2 foot long drilled two holes in it to catch two of the four holes on the cam pulley and put a 1/4 bolt and nut to hold the bolt to my wrench. \ i found that you want to go for two holes right next to each other i wasn't thinking right when i drilled them the first time and i made it to across the pully . kinda hard to get the wrench on there to get the pullys off. the wrench will also help when you go reinstall the timing belts. if you don't want to make a tool. just get an impact wrench. and since these are non interference moters you don't need to worry about bending valves

Can i tow an XT6 with a tow bar?
i know you can't tow the 85 and newer wagons on a tow bar cuz the steering won't track right i bet you will find the same problem with the xt. i believe we called the subaru dealer to find out.

Sure glad I had an old 4WD Subaru today!
that is because they are too under powered to brake the tires loose in 4wd even on ice.<J/K>

? for those with pyrometers
The probe is about in inch behind the turbo. i know it is suppose to be before the turbo right off the engine. but right behind the turbo is a lot easier to get too. My mods are 2.5 inch exhaust, spider intake, and wrx tmic, oh and a two row radiator i also have a air fuel gauge and the car always runs on the rich side unless i'm idleing

? for those with pyrometers
i am curious what my exhaust temp should be running at. At light throttle just cruzzing I run between 800 to 1000 degrees. If i'm pushing it hard staying at full boost it runs around 1400 degrees. I'm just running stock boost. I'm was wondering if these temps are normal

Ignition/fuel cut...on stock boost
if the tps turns out to be bad i may have an extra one comeing into my hands that i could let you have

Does anyone tow with a 1.8L FWD wagon?
if you have trailer brakes and like going slow you could do it. i did tow my 57' chevy truck on a car dolly behind my 84 wagon but i wouldn't recommend it. i was going less than a mile. the brakes where the main problem. the car is so light that the truck would over power them
