  1. 95% of the cars I see in the wrecking yard that arent wrecked, have Fram oil filters on them. Thats enough for me. Plus I knew about that report many years ago that mikeshoup posted. Purolator, Wix, or OE.
  2. Thanks for the pics and update. Keep them coming.
  3. Send s'ko a PM, he's in the LA area and might know of someone. Or he might be interested in giving it a shot himself.
  4. Theres a thermo valve on the sandwich part. It operates when the oil temp is below 155deg, sending oil to the turbo. Once the oil starts to warm up, the valve starts to close diverting oil to the cooler. Depending on what you want to use it for, you might be able to remove the valve and divert the oil to go to the cooler only.
  5. Yeah, but Matts the only one with crabs:eek: Legs, that is:-p
  6. Hmmm, might try posting in the Wanted Forum?
  7. Yeah, loosen the engine mounts and detach the pitch stopper. Then jack it up. It may have to go pretty high, so you may need to get aggressive with trying to get in.
  8. To be honest, I'm a little skeered. I wont have time to fix anything I break (if I do) before the show as I will wrenching on my RX getting it ready:rolleyes: I need at least 2 more axles to feel safe.
  9. Dont think we will have that large a group, maybe a half dozen. I'll be toasting with a mocha:-p
  10. Thats the inside of the right front wheel. My RX didnt have a body kit when I got it. Cmon guys, I've seen some of the corny stuff some of you have done to your Soobs, give the guy a break. At least he's a Subaru enthusiast and not afraid to show it. I know of a guy thats a PNW local that has a WRX painted and decaled like that.
  11. I would remove the one thats still on. If it overheats and melts the plastic, it gets sucked up into the carb and creates all kinds of problems.
  12. I used to drive by his house on occasion when he lived in Bonney Lk. Never did stop and talk to him, I think he's just out of HS. I was at the SuperMall on Thurs, went to Red Robin for lunch with a freind, didnt even think to look around:rolleyes:
  13. The car belongs in a museum. Paul, when you sit down for coffee with the Prof, take notes:-p
  14. Hahaha, just wait till the 30th:headbang: I'm just getting primed;)
  15. Just a couple? PK is the first US manufacturer of the original BYB Aussie lift. Cant go wrong with Ozified.
  16. Huh, this horse just got sent to the stud farm:cool:
  17. Yup....7-7-07:banana: Be a big 53:dead: I'll see if I can get the sitter for my boys.
  18. Yes, you were basically burning the ATF along with the fuel.
  19. Yup, it was just posted a couple of days ago. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=76102
  20. The one in my RX rumbles pretty good with it in nuetral with the clutch out.
  21. Usually the car smokes pretty good when this occurs. But I guess with the condition of your exhaust it wasnt noticeable?
  22. Hey, thanks for the info. My Brat could use a shot of that cocktail. Hopefully I can source all the ingredients.
  23. You could always charge him a buck everytime he opened his mouth. That would probably pay for your gas.....both ways:grin:
  24. See ya on the 29th/30th, we'll have a drink to the good ole days:-p
