fluids in open diff vs. LSD
You don't have an LSD, unless someone put it in there after the car came from the car lot. If you had an LSD, there would be a tag on the diff that said LSD. But they didn't come on automatic cars

OK lissenup, I am ready to pronounce an assessment on the SOA
calebz replied to mtsmiths's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXGM owns 20% of FHI, the parent company of subaru. Foreign Vs domestic has been dead for a long time. Chrysler's 'american' products are made in canada, the Saab 9-7x is made in Ohio and not available to any other market except North america( not even in sweden, go figure).. and so on and so forth..

What's a '99 Impreza RS Worth?
calebz replied to 4FOR4's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXis it from a dealer or a private party? that will make a big difference in overall price. Given the front end wobble and the CEL, both of which could turn out to be somewhat expensive to fix, I would offer about $6000 for it.. But then again, resale on soobs isn't very good here.

RX Conversions
RX is a car made by subaru.. Its an EA82T.. came in 2 and 4 door. RX conversion usually means that the person is using the RX D/R transmission.. Nothing to do with lights

a question about turbos
In either scenario, you would probably lose performance.. mounting directly to the head would mean you were only getting exhaust pressure from one side, instead of both.. that would make for slower spool up and less air getting pushed back into the intake.. adding 3 feet of pipe before the turbo, would also equal less pressure going in, which would mean less pressure going out

Minimum Octane

Engine removal
14 mm deep for motor mounts. 14 and 12 mm wrenches and sockets.. and lotsa masking tape for marking vacuum lines and wires and stuff .. plus some screw drivers and pliers and stuff.. its really easy.. take your time and pay attention to how it comes apart.

Whats the deal with CCR?
Thats weird.. My EA82T doesn't have it either.. nor did it have any of the EGR crap on the original manifold.. now it has a different manifold, with EGR, but the return tube is blocked off.. maybe I should drill it and tap it.. I haven't been real keen on driling extra holes in my heads though.

OK to run Legacy in 2WD?
calebz replied to danvon's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIts intended for spare tire use and towing. Otherwise, its meant to be AWD.. Being a 98, it isn't '4wd' its AWD. there is a difference. Being an automatic, 90% of your power is already going to your front wheels until they slip and give the tranny a reason to send power to the rear. There is no advantage to be gained by disabling the AWD on your legacy. In answer to your question about the switch, You don't have 4WD, so theres no need for a switch:D

crank position sensor questions
i agree with Skip.. Perhaps a pic of the bad sensor would help us determine what actually broke. pictures and Kilowords and all that..

Stalling when warm
Actually, it has been changed since the question was asked.. I looked too.. all it said before was springfield... No state listed. Pablo. It sounds like you may have a vacuum leak.. But it could be a carb problem. You said that the engine has some trouble when cold as well.. what kind of trouble
