WCSS7 collector's glasses poll
Subarutex replied to garner's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
1. Pint Glasses 2. I think screen printed would be pretty rad... assuming it holds up to dishwashing and such. Engraved would be fine though 3. I vote for TEX6. I'm currently getting some quotes on getting that design screened onto shirts. I'm in for 2. Names: Monica and Mr. Monica -

West Coast Subaru Show website is now up!!
Subarutex replied to Qman's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
This is bull**** and I detest these crappy "censoring sites" because they never are able to get it right. *edit* These services are like Police. 98% of the time they are very useful and helpful, and I support what they do, because in today's society we need it. However, the other 2% of the time they are sitting behind you with the red and blue's flashing telling you that you have a "non-stock funky bumper." At the time its damn annoying and inconvenient... looking back on it its kind of amusing...kind of. *edit* No Mick, there isnt sex anywhere on ANY of the pages. But that doesn't matter. Products like these go above and beyond looking at META tags in websites. Its probally being blocked because of what IP its on. I just spent 20 minutes trying to find the request form to fill out to ask them if they would take the page off their database. Hopefully it goes through... yet they never said if they would contact me if it does or not... I went from having my site hosted on a small mom and pop type hosting place, to having it hosted on a lot bigger hosting place. Because of the way the websense product works, if at one point, or right now, there is an ADULT website hosted on the same server as the one I got webspace on... meaning they will both have the same root IP, then boom we get thrown into the mix, because their product can't differentiate between the us and the "bad guys." I've dealt with stuff like this before and its a pain in the rump roast. Who knows how long it will take for them to take us off "the list." What sucks even more is that to fill out the form to say they catorgized an URL wrong you have to register and give them your info. Anyways, i've done all I can do. If you encounter the same error, and you feel like giving your information to a stupid company, take the time and send them the form to take www.westcoastsubarushow.com off their list. Go http://ww2.websense.com/global/en/ProductsServices/MasterDatabase/URLChange.php to try and "recatorgize" the site in their database. **realize that by clicking the link you are taking what you view on the web into your own hands, I am not responsible for if what you see offends you...

Ok, I switched hosting companies... the website is back up. Everything should still work as before, let me know if it doesn't. Sorry :-\ -
West Coast Subaru Show 7 Thread (real deal)
Subarutex replied to ezapar's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
Apparently the hosting is down. All 3 sites are down, plus the hosting company's mainpage. Must be a server issue. I've tried contacting them, but no luck as of yet. Keep trying, thats about all I can say. Its pretty much out of my hands :-\ -
Performance rings, pistons, and con rods...
Subarutex replied to Subarutex's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I'll probally just go with OEM rings for now, cause thats all that appears to be wrong. I heard of these rings that are called true seal, or something like that. Basically they are half the thickness of normal rings, and you put them in so the break in the rings are opposite eachother. ITs supposed to give a better seal. Might look into those... WHat do you guys think of Cyrogenic treatment? -

So, a couple of us got together at the Northgate Red Robin for dinner with Noah. Ratty2Austin Noahdl88 Sparkster Gunslinger Syphon and myself were in attendance. Parked just outside the Red Robin was a pretty nice Brat. It didn't belong to any of us, but it had to be someone in the "know" Black Brat with a white low topper, White A-bar, Sexy Peugeot Alloy wheels (15"i think...) and nice XT6 seats. On the back part of the sides of the bed there was a vinyl sticker that said: Rally Brat Racing. Whose Brat was this?! It was there when we got there, and it was still there when we left late that night... Anyways... I had a blast. Always good to meet new people, especially meet someone that last time you saw them were driving a TOYOTA and flagged you down to ask about your SUBARU, and now they are driving a pretty badass little SUBARU. Makes ya feel good Props to the guy/gal with the Brat. Its in good shape and looks sharp!

No, i used wrx ones, looks to be the exact ones you ahve linked second. Those first ones look weird, and I would stay away from them. Either of these setups use the same method to secure the threaded collar to the strut. Space is taken up between the collar and the strut by using rubber o-rings. This should be pretty tight. Then, at the bottom there will be 3 threaded holes to put in little threaded plugs. (in the second link, look to the bottom right of the picture) these clamp the collar to the strut... much like a xmas tree stand clamps in a tree. I spose the sprigns could be 8" instead of 6"... I dunno. These are all ripoffs of the Ground Control coilovers, which for what they are are over priced. Those do feature steel threaded collars instead of aluminium. You could put the ground control springs on these setups (the springs are eibach's) but I wouldn't. At that point I would rather upgrade to steel hardware... as I don't trust the aluminium that much.

Deadbolt Enterprises Port/Polish Turbo inside
Subarutex replied to WJM's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I would also trust Deadbolt to do a job i'm not quite up to. I have the tools, and with the pictures I could probally do it... but sometimes its just that little bit of expertise that makes things great instead of just good. -
I run a welded diff in my wagon. And frequently I'm too lazy to change out the axle. Mainly, this is spurred on by the fact that everyone ends up having to wait for me to install the axle at the trail head... and usually makes me feel bad. So, I regularly drive it on the street. To date, I've never broken an axle, I did break and axle stub once though. That was right after driving 400 miles hwy on it, and then piling 5 people in the car and trying to climb a stupid little rock pile. I find that the tires usually chirp if I turn to tight. Car is a little tougher to park in tight spots, and loses a little oomph going around some corners.

I bet its double that. Here is a link to their site with prices: http://www.boostplanet.com/services.htm -
Worn impreza 2.5rs struts in front. New RX KYB GR2's in the back. Seems to me the springs are about 6" tall... The collar adjustment is about 3".

I wouldn't think so Kenny. You'd have to ovalize each whole about 5mm outwards. Risky business!
