  1. Very unlikely that a head gasket would fail there. More than likely, it's just the oil pan. Hit that whole area with engine degreaser and then see where the fresh spots show up Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk
  2. If you still have a full set of black front seat belts, I'll take them. I don't think the rears will fit my Outback -Justin Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
  3. I can't help you with the communications issue specifically, but I agree thatIf you have other tools that will connect to it then they shouldn't have a problem. I don't have to worry about this because I have an 05 so I am emissions exempt which means no plugin 15 years or older. I'm in MA. Inspections really aren't that rigorous at all, they just plug you in to make sure that your monitors are ready but you're allowed to have up to two monitors not ready IIRC. Those are easy to see via a scan tool. Obviously if you have a fairly loud exhaust or you're totally slammed or have illegal front tint then you're asking for a fail, But I didn't have much of a problem getting my 05 OBXT passed with Tein coilovers and deleted resonator and mufflers. When you pull up to the shop, pull the inspector to the side and ask him if he's going to fail you or not they're usually straightforward and will save you the headache if the answer is yes. On your downpipe though, if you can find a CARB number for it it might help to bring it with you but just having a cat should be good enough to pass. Sounds like you just need to go to a different shop man -Justin Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
  4. How many miles on the coilovers? Very interested. -Justin
  5. I'll take the hangers if you still have them I'm local. Shoot me a PM -Justin Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
  6. I have a no name catless downpipe I'm located in MA could add money on top for your Grimmspeed let me know if you're interested -Justin Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
  7. I have no idea if my 05 Outback XT Limited came with a stock compass but if it didn't is this still plug and play? If so I'll take a mirror and harness -Justin Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
  8. The two in Rhode Island are Pick n Pull. One in Cumberland one if Johnston. Sam's (and I'd assume most other yards do this as well) has a big stack of those OEM style scissor jacks when you first walk in that you can grab and use. Obviously, bringing your own jack (and maybe a 2x4 to rest it on) would be easier. Sam's does tend to get a bit muddy when it rains. If you need to get something off the bottom of a car, such as suspension stuff, ask one of the forklift operators driving around and they will put the car in the air on one of the big steel crates that are laying around so that you can work under it. -Justin
  9. What? There's two pick n pulls in RI, one in Worcester (Sam's), and a few in the Billerica area (Jack's and Hollands) off the top of my head. -Justin
  10. It's got a good 200k on it, bone stock and still running strong. I liked the box too but unfortunately it didn't come with the car. Might throw a snowboard rack on it though -Justin
  11. I'm not touching this motor or turbo as long as they're both alive. A 200k mile turbo and EJ255 can only live so long though but they seem strong as it is now, as this car is bone stock and seems to have been taken care of. If I were to upgrade the turbo in the future I've been eyeing a Twisted Motion 20g, which is basically the same thing - a decent rebuild and balance service for "ebay" turbos. 300-350 is more than plenty for a grocery getting winter car / secondary daily, my truck is about to go under the knife and it will make probably twice that on the bottle when I want to go fast -Justin
  12. Sorry, I may have confused you guys lol. I was looking to replace both the turbo inlet and the intake attached to it, and was trying to clarify what the difference was between the WRX/LGT intake pipe. I think I have that clarified now. If I went with something like a Perrin after-MAF, that shouldn't induce boost creep correct? The EWG pipe I had from my project Forester because I was going to be using an eBay 20g on it and those IWG are notoriously horrible. I wasn't planning on putting it on the Outback, or at least not on the stock engine (I have the parts to build a forged short block should the stock engine give up, and I would use it then). -Justin
  13. This. Even if the car came factory with some sort of floor mats or an extra key or cargo bay stuff, don't expect that stuff to still be there 15 years later. For mats specifically, I would 100% recommend Weathertech floor trays as opposed to your standard mat. -Justin
