April 7, 201114 yr Author haha last DOHC car I had was the 98 Forester car has 220K on it. Their good motors, but timing belts are a headache LOL!
April 8, 201114 yr Heh it seems pretty straight forward in doing the timing belt haha just a bit more effort
April 8, 201114 yr Hey so you know I took my whole gauge out of the car before they got rid of it.. So I happen to look at the back for the first time and I noticed while my car was AWD and a 5 MT they had a bulb in the socket hole for the TCS indicator.. I thought that was a bit weird.

Mine did too, but there are no power leads going to it. I think its just an extra bulb/socket they put with all clutsters.
April 8, 201114 yr That's weird the first thing I thought of is how much did they spend wasting bulbs lol
April 8, 201114 yr That's weird the first thing I thought of is how much did they spend wasting bulbs lol Who cares? Now anybody who owns a second gen lego without TCS knows they have a spare bulb stashed in their dash Twitch
April 8, 201114 yr Author Who cares?Now anybody who owns a second gen lego without TCS knows they have a spare bulb stashed in their dash Twitch Lol, yeah. Cause we all know how much those #74 bulbs cost
April 8, 201114 yr Lol, yeah. Cause we all know how much those #74 bulbs cost Especially at wholesale bulk discount price.
April 10, 201114 yr Well I'm feeling good enough to start modding my map lights now I have yet to touch anything since that package came in like a month ago.. I'm pretty sure from 97 all the way to an 02 wrx the connections fit.

I'm pretty sure from 97 all the way to an 02 wrx the connections fit. Yeah, I don't think Subaru changed much in connections over the years, EA82 Vs. 2nd gen Legacy proves that so I've found. Cheers and post pics and info when you get to doing it!
April 10, 201114 yr whoo done after 3 1/2 hours! a single LED on will be bright enough so 2 is going to be very bright! it was hard to have them centered but that's more because I should of used a larger heatsink size I wont know for sure until I plug it in the car I can't tell which is + and - in the car.. one side of the connector has a silver dot on it so I don't know what that means.. I'm going to be doing LED blinkers I expect it to be around 3-5% brighter then stock.
April 10, 201114 yr Author WOW thats some bright light. That might be too bright for a maplight. Guess we'll see. I like the LED blinker idea, I am planning on doing High-power LEDs for my EA82 backup lights (Super super white) just for shiz and gigz. NIce work though!
April 10, 201114 yr My blinkers and back lights total are going to run me around $70 total red and amber 3 stars cost a lot
April 12, 201114 yr Author Pull home a '96 Brighton with my Outback. Tow bar FTW! As you can see in the Subaru Alliance videos and in the pics. Subaru Alliance Shopday #12 Subaru Alliance Shopday #13 More videos to follow this once I get them made on Pinnacle Studio. Edited April 12, 201114 yr by TheLoyale
April 13, 201114 yr nice!! what are the plans for the brighton? waita second... I noticed in the second video, it was said, while rolling a cig. "pull the transmission, through the auto in it and sell it." Just like that, swap an auto for a standard? isn't that a bit of a bear?? Anyhoo, fun videos. It's like, "a day in the life of the Subaru alliance..." style I must say the 'ol trashwagon 10 sure has come together well!! How well did it pull the brighton? exceeding recommended towing capacity and all
April 13, 201114 yr Author Yeah this is Foxs car, Either he's gonna flip it and make a bit'o paper, Or he's gonna pull the trans and rear diff and keep for his 3-door, swap in a FWD 4EAT and sell it. And really, it pulled it with ease, you just have to have a handel on the vehicle and don't try to correct it to much as constint little corrections will start to make un-stable as I have found out. Plus the Alignment on the Brighton is a little off and kinda makes it Dogtrack. All in all, I would do this again and I think I could handel pulling cars back from IN and such.

April 13, 201114 yr Author I no longer watch the news. Just Subaru Alliance videos. The news is lies, WE are the reality. "We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams"
April 13, 201114 yr The news is lies, WE are the reality. "We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams" Ok Willy Wonka... You gonna install a chocolate fountain in your Safari Wagon now? :-p Jk man. Twitch PS: Oh and exceeding the towing capacity is what its all about when you slap a hitch on a Suby. My BRAT pulled a 93 hoondah accordian over 3 miles, in traffic before Edited April 13, 201114 yr by Twitch de la Brat
April 13, 201114 yr How much for the brighton with the 5 speed. Minus the subaru alliance paint job. Also what would the alliance say if i shot up there for a weekend. You know, see how the wisconsonites do it. Edited April 13, 201114 yr by The Dude Abides
April 13, 201114 yr Author Twitch, try pulling this 2500lbs car over 40 miles 20 miles of that was interstate with construction. Also, haven't you watched "Pimp My Ride" I'm sure they put a Chocolate waterfall in back of a Topaz at some point. Ben, You would be welcome to come chill with us as long as you don't start bustin' balls. This Legacy could go for $1,300 up here with ease.
