No, I had a Sony deck in it. But it was in the car when I bought it. It doesnt have a wiring adapter either, the sub wiring is straight back from the deck with 12g RCA. The door speakers are actually wired to the stock harness. I think the 89's might be wired differently because I didnt have any problem once I figured out which were the correct wires. Each one had its own ground wire. I wasnt looking forward to running new wire into the doors :-\

Mykeys Toy gave me some links to some places and products. I did some (alot) of research on different makes and I came up with the Kenwood. The subs are off brand, I got them from Mykeys and the amp is a cheapo I got off Ebay, used. The Sony 3ways were in the car when I got it. But I think I have the right combo (for now) and its sounding pretty good. I've been burning about 5-6 CD's a night, I have to record them to my HD first from the cassette player. I went and bought a nice Onkyo system off of Craigslist (Amp, Cassette, 5 CD changer) for just $65. I've been making some good scores lately from Craigslist

I was wondering if anyone would recognize the song. Yup, its an old Jeff Beck album. I've been burning some of my old cassettes to CD so I can listen to them in the car. I got stuff from the early 70's

My old stereo finally broke down and I had to purchase a new one. Got it on Ebay for $100 less than the store ($250 @ Circuit City). Its a Kenwood EZ500, flip down face and a bunch of other goodies. Got it going into 2 10in subs powered by a 250W amp and 2 Sony 3ways in the doors. The system rocks! I thought my old one sounded ok This blows it away I know all you younger folks get into this stuff, I hope you can appreciate us "older" guys like good systems too. Btw, the pocket above it is not stock. Theres usually a equalizer there for the stock radio. I got the pocket from a EA81 GL and made a faceplate for it. Can never have enough storage

did you go to the exotic erotic thing in portland?
FYI, the Supreme Court of Oregon has deemed that live sex acts are legal. Is this what you are refering to Oddcomp?

Subaru XT Coupe
Dave, would this cause it to stall when you are coasting?

Subaru XT Coupe
I would try and find a stock ECU for it and see if that fixes the problem. Not to many early Soobs have had the ECU chipped from my knowledge.

Loyale 4 Speed automatic questions
The XT6 AT is 4EAT. The swap would be pretty major, besides the TCU you would probably need to swap the tranny x-member and driveline.

3 spd AT rebuild kit
The pedal box can be a PIA, you have to be patient for that one. Its easier if you drop the steering colom. Balancing the driveshaft isnt usually necessary. The whole job is pretty labor intensive tho.

Yup, there sure is. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/USRM2/mick-usrm/transmission/5speed.html

Fashion question...
No, that was my "point" to begin with
-
3 spd AT rebuild kit
I agree. I wouldnt waste the money on a kit, just go find another tranny. Even a 4spd D/R is better than the AT

4WD conversion?
If its going to stay a AT, it will be easier to do. If your going to a MT you will need to swap out the tranny x-member, driveline and I think a few other parts. The pedal box needs to be put in for the MT and clutch cable too. The lock switch is sometimes a bear to deal with, it needs to be put in N and just tucked away (the no frill fix). The hardest part is installing the rear running gear, just because its cumbersome. If you take your time and get some help, its not to bad. Good luck and keep us updated.

Would This Be a Safe Thing to Do?!
I thought there was? Years ago I saw a clip of you going in the river, maybe it was over at EZboard. Wish I still had it :-\ Btw, last weekend at the Rieter Pit Trail cleanup I went thru a pretty good sized mud puddle. It was about 35ft across and I had no idea how deep it was. But heck, it was just a mud puddle, right? 3/4 of the way thru the front left dropped 2ft into a good sized hole. Seeing how the water was up to the bottom of my rockers, a good 21in off the ground, that put the water close to the sill of my window. Which just so happened to be open Not only did the Hatch get muddy, so did I. But when it dropped into the hole I dropped the hammer and spun the tires till I pulled out of the hole. I think I impressed a Jeep driver that was walking around picking up trash, he gave me a thumbs up
