i'm glad i found this thread.. my 92 legacy 5spd has come down with what first felt like a wiggle(whole car),i figured that 99% is coming from the front.i'll have to crawl under and check the inbound cv joints.(along with trans mounts).i'm not hearing any noises to go along with vibration but the more i get on the gas,the more it does it. i'm starting to think that leggy is looking for attention...this new problem(wiggle),trans popping out of fourth(internal problem,got a spare trans to put in her),windshild replacement(did that today and have never been injured more times while working on my cars then today..(stupid metal clips along inside windshield frame + cutting wire braking = injuries):-\

sounds like a loose heat shield..without car running,check with your hand all the shields to see if any are loose.i've notice that as time goes by,the welds let go and they become loose..i've used a worm clamp(large one) to wrap around and stop the rattle(though i have one that's loose and they're louder then the shield itself when it rattles)

+1..i had same problem with the spring on my 94 legacy with sloppy shifter. now i gotta find out why my 92 doesn't like 4th gear,almost feels like it's kicking it out of gear..to the point where i gotta hold it in gear.of course it doesn't do it with a load on trans,only if i let off gas..(gotta get under it one of these days and check trans mounts) or it could be what grossgary said..check the heat shields too

New England Rally Meet? Maine or NH
subie94 replied to moosens's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
the "seek the peak" rally meet seems like it'd be cool (and easy) to go to.. -
for accurate readings,i'd do what Mykeys Toy said and wait till there's a sound off.not only will you get a good reading but you may also win something..the place i went to just had a cheap (so the guy said,also said it cost $3,000 for it to be replaced) and all i got was 128.9 using a comp cd w/only low freqs on it..

would it be worth it..$750 79 wagon
subie94 replied to subie94's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
gonna have to contact seller and arrange a time for me to drive up and look at it.roughly 2hr(highway) drive north.. other thing is,if i was to buy it and get it running..should i take a chance and drive it back home or have it towed.. :-\ i guess if i have a tow company on speed dial.. of course there's also this..not as old but is old school http://nh.craigslist.org/car/701486104.html cheaper,closer..says it's a 5spd(wonder if dual range,doesn't say) -
http://nh.craigslist.org/car/661122433.html $750 for something that's not running..owner thinks ignition issues also http://nh.craigslist.org/car/685887482.html i've always wanted a svx now if only i could find a way to get the money.. tried getting a loan,but haven't heard from bank yet..

sorry about the brat..glad you came out ok. had a women pull out in front of me w/my 86 gl wagon and i ended up hitting her at her right side fender towards the bumper.i guess i just about took the front end off..my soob was still drivable.front end was shifted sideways,pushed my rad into engine(but didn't spring leak somehow..) and something riped a hole in the hood..:-\ (insult to injury,she didn't have insurance and out of work..) my experience,State Farm doesn't like to give money out..make sure you stand your ground.

cool..gonna have to give it a try.like i said,i got some stuff in need of matching paint.(wonder how white would look??) myself i can't decide to build new box or buy one... (had a cheap dual 10" box in my other 92 leg w/200 watt amp and was pushing 130 decibals..should have yours checked)
-
looking good.. what did you use for paint? cause i need to do some painting myself.. (how's that box sound?)

while driving around for approx an hour today,i passed by about 20.everything from loyale to new legacys.. here's another interesting thing i learned today.(anyone looking for a job with subaru?)i'd go for the warehouse position but it'd be a bit of a travel to work.. http://www.brightmove.com/ATS/SearchPublicRequirements.do?companyGK=14464&pageSize=20&sortOrder=2&sortDir=desc&prevSearchTerm=%25&startRecord=1&prevPageSize=20&searchTerms=%25

i'm having same problem on drivers door.i think it's leaking between black seal too.. if i remember correctly,you should be able to pull the seal off.i found that water can get under the black trim piece that's above the door opening and if there's a gap in the rubber seal then water will sneak in and drip on you.. anyone here able to find those vent shades that allow you to have window open and not have rain come in..can't find one for my year(wasn't sure if one from a newer year would match up..something like this http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/Product/Pr-p_Product.CATENTRY_ID:2004998/c-10111/Nty-1/p-2004998/Ntx-mode+matchallpartial/N-10111/tf-Browse/s-10101/Ntk-AllTextSearchGroup?Ntt=vent+shades i joined legacycentral awhile back,but now can't remember my username and password..gonna have to re-register

i've been thinking of getting one of those pulleys myself..you notice any difference after changing it? http://users.adelphia.net/~nv1z/allen92Legacyintake.jpg Here's a (bad) pic of the filter i put on my old 92 legacy(don't have it anymore,but i do still own the filter).i'll get around to putting the filter on the 92 leg that i have now.. how's that muffler sound..? anything like this?-- http://s24.photobucket.com/albums/c34/beretta92d/?action=view¤t=vidclipwithoutsilencer.flv

my 92 Legacy L wagon has 217,611(previous owner did alot of highway driving with it).Head Gaskets,cam seals,oil pump seal and water pump was done after i got it a year an a half ago along with 2 struts,1 axle shaft,exhaust leak at the manifold.does use some oil but no more then a quart during a months time..(maybe 2).no leaks now if only i can get the rust under control...
-
Sooo..Yup total amount for the brakes are gonna be $76.84($18.88 for pads and $57.96 for both rotors..) only reason i paid $28.98 per rotor was cause the $19.99 ones were back ordered and no time to wait..suppose i could of called around but... i am gonna have to see if i have a spare caliper just in case the right side does in fact need replaceing
-
that's what i was thinking(left side caliper problems).seems to be more rust on left side.but hard to tell due to the fact that on left side,theres rust on the inner/outer edge of the rotor and right side only has rust on inner edge(like in the pic).pins seem to be sliding ok too.. when i first got the car(1.5yrs ago) i checked the brakes out and of course i only checked one side(which was left,which seems to be about the same as it was then). so tomorrow i'll be spending $19 for pads and possibly $40 for 2 rotors.. ain't that the truth..right side was always muddy..or clean(depending on what was on the side of the road(water or mud puddles)
-
if you start hearing bad noises from your brakes..don't procrastinate and check em.. brake pads really shot and rotors gonna need turning(or replacement) odd thing is that rear left side's fine but rear right side is shot..haven't checked fronts..rear was making 90% of noise also,don't allow the rust to get bad..some is mild but there's some good size holes here.. (click on any for larger pic) so..yup,i know what i'll be doing this summer(brakes done by tomorrow..hopefully) :-\
