  1. LOL If you were to do that, why bother with mufflers?
  2. I think I will email this guy and tell him he's wrong about the EJ engines mating up to the tranny :-\ Doesnt work without a adapter plate. Cant wait for pics of the black RX.
  3. Depends on where the leak is. If its after the turbo, it wont have any effect on lag.
  4. Welcome to the board. First order of business is to learn the search function Theres lots of threads about the mods you want to do. But for starters.... Dont go any bigger on your exhaust. You need back pressure or it wont run right. It will never sound like a WRX. You wont be able to fit 5x100 wheels on unless you do a suspension swap. Right now you have 4x140 and the only options you have are Peugeot wheels. Most of this info can be found here or in the Retrofit forum.
  5. How about by the 20th? I want to drive my XT6 to the Dragon :-p After fixing the cooling issue of course

  7. Turbo intake from a 87.5 XT. Hard to come by now days. They flow a little better than the regular EA82T intake. Its called a spyder intake.
  8. Make sure the fan is turning on when it reaches temp.
  9. Ehh, no. Never seen one badged as a "Special Edition". And all the RX's that I know of have PW. Get more info and/or pics!
  10. Hmmm, could be. I had 2 of them at one time and sold one.
  11. Indeed, a 2 row radiator with 2 electric fans on it will keep it cool. I have a WRX intercooler on my setup. It runs very cool, almost to cool.
  12. Dang it, why Tigard? Looks like it has some pretty rare alloys on it. If you can, find out what color the interior is.
  13. Theres going to be a ton of Subaru's and who knows how many other cars.
  14. I Still have sometime before I need the hood. I always wait until the last minute to get things done
  15. Yes. The links are insulated wires with spade terminals on the ends. Each one has a different rating, thats why the different colors.
  16. Does this have a clutch type cooling fan? It fits onto the waterpump shaft. If not, it may have the accessory fan (electric), which would give it 2 fans. I would check out the fan that has the cracks. If that loses a blade, say goodbye radiator.
  17. Fusible links are next to the battery, on the drivers side.
  18. Any 5spd 4wd tranny will work, even one thats dual range. You will need the console pieces for the dual range.
  19. I cant hear anything but the engine :-\ Explain the sound. Ticking? Clicking? Whirring? What?
  20. That might look interesting with the whole plate area black. Heres the link for reading the codes... http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=49918
  21. Did you ever replace the intake or head gaskets?
  22. If you want to keep up with the WRX's, get a WRX. By the time you spent all the money, time and effort to swap another engine into the RX, you would have paid for half of a WRX. Then after upgrading the suspension, etc, your looking at even more $$$. And I definitely know what and where the Dragon is.
  23. There is no 1.6L turbo engine. Not made by Subaru at least. What makes you think its a 1.6?
