when the abs kicks in on my 94 legacy wagon,instead of a pulsating thump like i told it would sound like i get more of a pulsating squeal or sqreaching sound. suppose maybe i should just sit there and stair at the brakes to see if i notice anything wrong.first time really working with abs brake system. i believe the brake pads are fairly new and the rotors were turned shotly before i got the car. anyone know what i should look for. or is sqeaching sound normal(hope not very annoying) really been thinking of pulling fuse but then i'm sure light on dash would come on.

subie94 replied to wazza34's topic in Subaru Transplants
if needed contact mudrat,i hear he's great at making adapter plates that would allow that. -
glad to hear that you were able to walk away from what sounded like would have been very VERY!!! BAD,forgot who said it earlier but cars are replaceable,we as human beings aren't. guy i knew fell asleep in his 97? legacy at like 45/50 an hit a tree head on,granted he had to be put on strecher but injuries were very minor.car of course was totaled.hit hard enough that it buckled the roof just up to the front doors but back door fine. just remember one thing-your babys safty features saved your life an you may find her twin or recarnation.

fron brake piston problems
subie94 replied to pyromanic's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
on my 86 gl that i had,when i did the front brakes the first time i found out that you have to turn them(pistons) back in.there is a tool you can buy.or if your really careful you can use a pair of vise grips(just watch out for dust boot) an if that doesn't work then just use calipers from donar car -

Another Subaru spotted in another movie!

just finished watching the movie RAT. i'm not sure if it is or isn't but it looks like they used a subie 360 van in the movie.heard them refer to it as the bread truck.maybe it's just another small van that looks the same. the movie took place over in ireland and was about how a man turned into a rat an how his family reacted to it.funny movie. -
in the 86 gl wagon i had,i mounted both 10 subs in the storage compartments in the back.one on either side.wasn't able to seal good enough though.

STi 6-Speed Transmission for Impreza, Legacy and Forester. New complete STi 6-speed gearbox unit. The 6-speed was a complete redesign intended to cure many of the weak points evident in the 5-speed when subjected to large torque loads. The biggest difference is in the case design. The 6-speed case is split transversely rather then longitudinally like the 5-speed. This provided significant improvement in rigidity and support for the main and pinion shafts. Additionally, an oil pump was added to the 6-speed to provide better lubrication to all areas of the gearbox. Equipped with Suretrack front LSD and driver controlled center differential (DCCD). Requires kit sold below. STi ratios: 3.636 (1st), 2.375 (2nd), 1.761 (3rd), 1.346 (4th), 0.971 (5th), 0.756 (6th), 3.545 (Rev.), 3.900 (final drive). $4,999 STi 6-Speed Transmission Conversion Kit. Conversion parts from 5-speed to 6-speed include: flywheel, flywheel cover, clutch, STi short throw shift linkage, shift knob, STi group N transmission mount, prop shaft, rear 3.900 ring & pinion set, DCCD (driver controlled center diff.) control unit, DCCD thumbwheel selector switch, DCCD wiring harness, shifter trim, shifter console, shifter boot. $2,499 how bout putting one of these in
