How to run power wire for an Amp.
Novakaine replied to Novakaine's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXSweet, thanks. Would i be better off getting under the car to get to this, or its easier from the top? Thanks Also, did you have to cut away some of the black padding/fireproof stuff that is under the carpet to see the grommet?

Novakaine replied to axxiom's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXWe should put the times/location up in the meet an greet section of the forum. Unless you already did, I have not checked recently.

How to run power wire for an Amp.
Novakaine replied to Novakaine's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI appreciate all the responses. You guys are the best. I am pretty decent at doing the install and running wires and all that. My biggest issue is getting positive power from the engine bay to cabin, but now I see that can be done from the glove box. Do I have to remove the glove box? What do I have to move aside to see the gormet? Thanks all you guys, I will have a kick system now....hopefuly.

How to run power wire for an Amp.
Alright guys, It's time to do the sound in my suby. I want to Amp my speaker, so I need some power to my Amp. Where and how do i get a wire from my battery to the amp. I can do most of the stuff, but where would be the best place to go from inside the the car to the engine compartment. In the left side of the car, there are some fuel lines, i think, shouldI stay away from that. Because I was thinking of running it somewhere around there. What have you guys done, what works, what does not work? Any ideas suggestions of pictures would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Avish

Legacy_After Market Fog Light Kit
Novakaine replied to mystro's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI guess it all depends what you want. Cardomain has some fog lights for $20, I am sure they are not that great, but hey $20 is very cheap. But If you want some high quality, really bright lights, perhaps these are not the best choice.

I thought my legacy was haunted...
Damn, what are the physical dimensions of a cap that large. Must be the size of my leg. Also, that is 1400 RMS, right? Crazy system. I have a slight idle problem, but i am thinking it is an O2 sensor.

I guess I will have to just get in there and learn the hard way. I used to hangh out at a mechanics shop once a week, but he moved far away.

Remote start syst. on '03 VDC ?
Novakaine replied to Skip's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXEven if it is not freezing outside, i think it is still a good idea to warm the car up for a minute or two. The suby is my baby, and i want to give it all the love and care it deserves. I also want to do all the work myself, so i guess i must hunt down wiring diagrams and stuff now.

Remote start syst. on '03 VDC ?
Novakaine replied to Skip's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI have been dying to do this to 95 legacy. I was going to start on right after new years. I was hoping maybe you could help me out with some advice. Which is a good system to get? Was the wiring prety straightforward (was all the wiring you needed right under the key switch)? Sorry for hijacking your thread. I am just a little excited and nervous about remote start. Thanks

Novakaine replied to Novakaine's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIt depends. If you do the work yoruself or pay the labor. My mechanic wanted about 500 total to do all that. THe waterpump is about 120, and the belt is about 55.

Front Moonroof Explosion

timing belt pics, looks good?
Novakaine replied to Novakaine's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXWow, thanks guys. So upon sifting through all the old records, i found one that said the waterpump was leaking, at 90k. But i have can't find any that say it was replaced. If the water pump was leaking at 90k, it should be leaking a lot more now. But I have not had to add any coolant in the last 1000 miles (since i have had the car). It does not appear to be leaking. So I am thinking that maybe the the belt and pump er replaced at 90k, and he just lost the record. Alos, is there anything i can spray (silcone lude?) to keep the belts from drying out or lasting any longer?

O2 sensor checked, how do these voltages look?
Novakaine replied to Novakaine's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXyup, this is the front sensor. If it is a good sensor, then my mileage is pretty crappy. Why do you think? Anything else i can check/do for better mileage?
-
timing belt pics, looks good?
I just bought the car, and when i went over the paper work, the timing belt was done at 61k. But the owner says he thinks he did it at 80k or 90k as well. So I took the cover off to inspect the belt. It looks like it is in good shape to me, but then again, i don't know much. Can you please look at the pics and tell me what you think? http://photos.yahoo.com/avishbharwani

O2 sensor checked, how do these voltages look?
So, I tested my o2 sensor...i think. Here is what i did: This is a three wire sensor, two white and one black. The two white wires i assume are for the heating element, and the one black wire is the O2 sensor...is that right? So I splice my multimeter positive to the black wire, and chassi grounded the negative. The voltage fluctuated between .15 volts to .8 volts and crossed .5 volts 4 or 5 times every 10 seconds. Is it time to replace the O2 sensor. Also, I am thinking the 02 sensor is bad because i get about 19 - 20 mpg, on average, but i do drive around 75 mph. And also, since i don't have a tach, i don't know the rpm, but curing idle the engine sounds like it gets a little low, and is about to stall, but then it revs a little higher and all is good. That only happens maybe 3 or 4 times, every 10 minutes. What do you guys think?

Rear ended
Novakaine replied to applegump's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI have always wondered, what happens when your car is worth nore than book price. Do they just give you book, and say too bad? or can you demand the give you the same car at what ever price it cost them?

Novakaine replied to PeterD's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXWhats the connection between VW's and Subarus? I see alot of dealerships that sell both. For some reason, I always assumed that they were connected somehow.

New O2 Sensor from Ebay ($60.00) installed..
I am getting 19 MPG, on a 95 Legacy wagon, I am thinking it might be the 02 sensor. So who is this guy that has cheap sensors? Please.

Novakaine replied to Novakaine's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXSee, I just want my car to run well, and strong for a long time. So i get worried as to what oils to use and what to do to keep it in tip top shape.

Problems to be aware of in a 95 legacy
Novakaine replied to Novakaine's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXThat is good for me to know. I will look more into it. thanks. Do you know if the 95 legacy has OBD 2 or OBD 1? My understanding was cars after 96 has OBD 2, but I am not sure.
