April 6, 201511 yr this would explain why my high-beam dash indicator doesnt work anymore... Yes. ...Also my drivers side door always says its open when its not... You only need to do an small adjustment to the Door's latch on the Subie's Body, to let it close Tighter... Kind Regards.
June 23, 201510 yr Author Home from school and trying to daily the wagon, the small issues are making it tough. went through and replaced both front struts so my camber issue is fixed. also got the ford tempo front springs so it sits less raked and more level. Passed the car off to Rob so he can chase a coolant leak and replace my leaking fuel tank from WCSS last year. here is an updated pic with a fresh wash and GC grill i update instagram more often: @subaruloyale cheers
June 23, 201510 yr Author next time try to clear the jumps instead of tag on all of em =D Would have gone harder but I needed to drive it home. Need a flat bed if im going to do that again
June 24, 201510 yr ... replaced both front struts so my camber issue is fixed. also got the ford tempo front springs so it sits less raked and more level... How do you feel the Front suspension with the Tempo coil Springs? I have many years using those on my "BumbleBeast" See ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/106807-improved-shock-absorbers-and-spring-coils-on-loyales/ Kind Regards.

I can see that it sits higher in the front which is nice because before my car was really raked in the back from the honda springs. It rides smooth as well.
June 25, 201510 yr I really enjoy the ride. I can see that it sits higher in the front which is nice because before my car was really raked in the back from the honda springs. It rides smooth as well. Yes, the Honda Accord coil Springs in the Rear + Ford Tempo coil Springs in the Front is the Best Combo, due to the equality of the Suspension's Stiffness in both axles, and provides better Handling than the Stock one, despite of being Harder. Thank you for your feedback. Kind Regards.
July 9, 201510 yr Author came home with the donor car today...almost want to just keep it as a daily. 1996 subaru legacy L 5 spd ej22 246k miles Phase 2 runs & drives great.
July 26, 201510 yr Author My old clutch, pretty toast. Redrilled the flywheel. drill press worked just fine Engine in! hopefully more progress this week.
July 28, 201510 yr ...Engine in! hopefully more progress this week. Looking Good! The SJR lift block has the letters facing to front, I guess it is because is a 4" Lift? On my "BumbleBeast" the SJR letters are towards outside of the Fender... But those are 2" blocks only; Kind Regards.
July 28, 201510 yr The SJR lift block has the letters facing to front, I guess it is because is a 4" Lift? On my "BumbleBeast" the SJR letters are towards outside of the Fender... Style has changed over the years your both correct
August 4, 201510 yr Author Runs, seems to smoke out the passenger side exhaust, where the header gets bolted on...Not sure why...oil dripping out down the headers too......smells pretty bad. It's having a hard time cooling as well. fans arent kicking on.
August 4, 201510 yr You need to run it to burn the oil off. I got the atf in my exhaust/on and it smoked for quite awhile. My fans are hooked up like original on mine.
August 4, 201510 yr Author The fans need to be on a relay controlled by the ECU i hooked them up to the stock fan plugs in the ECU. hopefully they turn on now. I want to test it but have no way of telling if it is overheating except common sense.
August 5, 201510 yr Author super frustrated by it not shutting off with my key and having to pull the connection on the battery...Can't find what the problem could be. Also fan is not turning on when it gets hot....which is another thing that bugs me. Edited August 5, 201510 yr by nick1208
August 5, 201510 yr Author Patrick helped me sort out the situation where it wouldn't turn off with my key! big thanks to him, skyping with me walking me through it in his free time. Temporarily wired my fan to a switch, going to try to take it out tomorrow.
October 28, 201510 yr Author Can't believe I sold it! This car is no longer mine if you want to follow the build more here is his instagram:https://instagram.com/crumley6969/It was a pretty good run I had with this beast. I enjoy the time I spent building it and fixing it. Especially the people I met through owning this car. I have another old school lined up to buy so keep your eye out for a new post by me in "members rides" this weekend.
July 5, 20178 yr I watched the whole time line and I'm sad there was only 7 pictures of the car after it was sold.
