What'd you do to your FIRST Gen. Subaru today?

You got it pressed in? How much was the whole process?

I paid about $45 for the bearing and about $4 for each seal. got em all at Advance Auto. My wife works at a dealership in town so i just brought the steering knuckle to them and they did it for free. I think they feel bad for me, our 01 kia rio is in there every other week getting worked on! but it only took like 20 minuets so i would imagine about $20 or $30 bucks in labor would get it done.

Lucky! That sucks about the kia though :/

Yeah, that's about what I paid.

Yeah don't ever buy a first gen Kia Rio. they are crap. 06 and up are much better but i still wouldn't buy one again.

I probably wouldnt buy too many Kia's, but I have a rule.

Never buy the first year of a new or redesigned car. There's

too many variables that they'll fix later and make a service

bulletin without having a recall.

so im getting a wrx top mount 02-03 today lol and i have been thinking a lot of a custom rear revers light in the bumper but i dont know what side to put it in (left or right not the middle lol)

You're getting a whale tail? I would cut out part of the bumper and

install some lights in there yourself.

 

Maybe install some lights about 2" off the sides of the center light.

no whale tail top mount lol

Oh, just a TMIC XD I read that completely wrong haha

lol i would never put a whale tail on a legacy

Someone did. Doesn't look too bad either. They're pretty big though.

Had a $5 oil change at my wifes work and i got a chance to get up close and personal with the underside while it was up on the lift. no major mechanical issues that i could find. just got a list of stuff i would "like" to do lol.

Dang! That's cheap That's what the guy that was doing my tires up at Firestone was saying. He's like "well, you need new wipers, but I checked all under the car and everything looks fine." I was just smiling cause while I'm taking my 20 year old car off-road some people are having trouble with their 4 year old cars and daily driving.

I was looking to do the jdm glass headlights on my 91 legy but can find them anywhere any one got any tips?

Today I took a drive out of the city (rare), to search for eBay-inventory treasures before the dreaded Frozen Stuff shows up. When that happens, I pretty much stay home.

 

Now that I have (hopefully) the correct amount of AT fluid the car just ran beautifully. Oh wow, I was so happy to notice a difference right away. The foam and bubbles are still concerning me but I couldn't do any expensive or major repairs anyway, so I'm just going to cross my fingers on that one, for now. It was suggested to me that the bubbles might be an O-ring leaking or a tube loose? The one that sucks up the tranny fluid. Who knows

 

Oh, and I bought some high mileage oil - a treat for my car.. lol.. It was either that or a bottle of wine for myself. I think that I made the right choice.

 

I love my ugly car.

 

p.s. My car now has 270,000 miles on it.. (or maybe it's Kilometres?) Either way, it's impressive.

Europe

Nice Didnt get any pictures?

 

We'll see. Worst case scenario: You transmission blows up. Best case scenario: It drives

 

Ooooh. I get some good stuff for mine too. Eneos

 

KM's I assume, but still...awesome!

join and look here i know theres a guy selling some but there going to cost like 300+ shipping.. ive looked into the glasses headlights and i have finally said no lol cause what if it breaks thats a 150 head light just to replace the glass and plus you can just puff the sh!t out of the stock ones lol to make look like glass

Yep. They never last, but whatever. Small price to pay.

yeah well im getting some rota's next week from a co-worker for 250 lol hope they last lol

alright i sanded with some 600 grit wet sand now i need some clear coat but the dont look quite as yellow anymore

I've done my head lights with a 3m kit from auto zone then got this stuff from them thats just this stuff in a tube with a cloth wheel you put in a drill and its worked pretty good

You'll have to use UV resistant clear coat. Mine is starting to turn a bit yellow after a few months. They're still not hazy, but they're yellowish.

 

I'm not personally a fan of Rota's.
