  1. Yup, not much has changed in all these years......except for the wagons :-p
  2. Mine is for a 02 WRX. Had to trim the bottom to make it fit, but the top is fine.
  3. I dont need to say anything here....my rep and others can attest to that
  4. I think he meant ARP head bolts are expensive.
  5. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=108543
  6. Offset is 55 and the bolt pattern is the same. But will a 16" wheel and tire fit on your Toyota?
  7. I did that once...........................and threw the pieces in a scrap bin
  8. Turbone

    Gears

    Or you could fork out $1800 and have this, already done and ready to wheel. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=86866&highlight=hatch
  9. I just thought of something....we need to check all the grounds, make sure we got them all connected.
  10. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showpost.php?p=899395&postcount=758 More than I've seen from you in a while
  11. Need to know if its a 5spd or AT and if its 4wd or fwd. And you would be wasting your money if you bought a end link for a WRX, because it wont work.
  12. Nobody other than a enthusiast would know if you swapped a 5spd and rear disc brakes on it. And I dont think they would complain or devalue it, I wouldnt. As a matter of fact, thats my next build. With some slight improvements And to put a price on it is hard to do. Showroom floor condition with low miles, I would say maybe $3K.
  13. I cut my "turbo" teeth on this model, I've owned and worked on several of them. They can be a bit finicky, like all the early turbo engines from Subaru, but the parts arent that hard to find. One in this condition and low miles should not be a DD for your wife (been there, done that....it was wrecked in less than a year). Get a Legacy if you want a DD. And I think I know who has the car for sale and will guarantee any car or work from his shops. I also know he probably wont budge on the price. He might work with you on a Legacy tho.
  14. Maybe try and add to the tube so it comes out further? I'll get over it.......Just watch out for a snowball at next years X-Mas tree run
  15. Thats what I said :-\ I'm looking at a FSM right now. You need to take the kick panel off and there should be a window at the bottom in front of the rocker panel. The tube runs into a hole in front of the rocker and comes out in that area. If I had time I would scan the pic and go out and look at my coupe also. But I dont atm.
  16. Never said it was a EA flywheel, its a ER flywheel. I assumed it was a EJ PP because it didnt look like any EA/ER PP I have replaced before. But even when I was in the mudpit at WCSS11 with a carload, then up at Greenwater doing donuts, I never had any clutch slippage.
  17. My RX tranny has been holding up under 170+ torque for almost a year now. I dont do any hard launches, but I do alot of redline runs. I totally toasted/borked/destroyed my last PP (EA PP, ER flywheel) and didnt have $ at the time for a new one. But I did have lots of used stuff laying around, some of which was given to me (Thanks Ed). Now I'm not positive, but pretty darn sure that what I grabbed out of my pile was a EJ PP. It didnt match anything I had used previously, but it bolted right up to my ER flywheel/clutch. I havent had a problem one with this combo so far. I would rather have a clutch slip a little, than have a tranny grenade.
  18. I believe the drains come out into the rear of the front wheel well.
