springs underneath front seats
ok, got some nice comfy gl10 seats today(thanx mark!) and he suggested for added firmness(something about me being a little over the average in the weight catergory ), to add a couple of springs to underneath, to shore things up so to speak, so, want to take a few from the seats that i have in there now but cant figure out how to get them out...the ends are pretty curved so you really cant push them out, plus, i'm pretty dumb and cant figure it out.. help please???

ok, who does brake jobs in the seattle area?
well, there's an awful lot grinding going on when the brake pedal is pressed...in fact, when its been sitting over night and i take it to go to work, the first few stops sends a sound right through my spinal cord..heck, its worse then the sound of my ex-wife! anyway, dont have jack stands or floor jack and dont trust midas, scwab etc...and would like a decent brake job done...anyone in the seattle area?

Lights mounted on the bumper

Online source for EA82 engine/tranny

Building gallery is up on the web page
says its unavailable....

Power Windows?? OH NO!!!!!!!!!
also, try the individual door switches and not the master controller...the master one tends to get ick and stuff on the contacts and that creates the slow roll down/up situtation...i just got a new controller for my 89 and it works alot better...

Brake dust cleaner?
anyone have a favorite brand of brake dust cleaner for alloy wheels? the pugs have it pretty bad, dont know if the guy ever cleaned them, so i guess i need a real heavy duty brake dust(baked on crud) cleaner and i guess just rags or a toothbrush?

if water pump is needed....ebay or jy?

-
Coolant leak?
well, another problem reared its ugly head this morning...when i was attempting to replace the o2 sensor i noticed green drops a drippin'...and by the time i figured out i wasnt going to be able to replace the sensor i had a pretty decent size puddle...checked the reservoir and poof!! nothing there...so filled that up half and half...question is, where i always park the car i have a piece of cardboard for the subie leaks...the cardboard is dry...so, does that mean it only leaks when the engine is running? if so, why? and now what is wrong? i assume its a leaking water pump....

installing o2 sensor question...
well, got a couple of sensors so was going to try them out one at a time and cant figure out how to remove it from the cat w/o dropping the y-pipe..i do have the official o2 sensor removal tool but dont have jacks or jack stands and just by crawling underneath there it looks like the y pipe is too close to use that removal tool... any tips/suggestions or flames?
