STI struts, what will work?
Are there STI struts that are workable in our SVX? I'm interested in cost of struts. If I'm looking at Koni's that cost more that the car is worth, forget about it. At 117k miles on a 92 what issues should I consider re struts?

I just think Tom as well as many others are sick of people being cheap with these cars. They are 13-18 years old and are going to need work and things replaced. They are uncommon cars with very little to no parts compatability with other vehicles and so people need to be prepared for any costs needed for routine maintenance as well as parts wearing out due to age as well as wear and tear.

Mine has cost me a bit to keep going, but that is not a complaint. As you said, it has never left me stranded.
I picked up my '92 over 4 years ago, and it now has almost 277K riding on the struts, but they get switched out next week. Oem |
Re: STI struts, what will work?
Just be weary of the OEM as most have been sitting on the shelves for years and it seems quite a few that have gone that route have had them fail. (and usually its after the 1 yr MFG warranty:()

A $180,000 house that you buy for $45,000 is a "fixer-upper". How much did you pay for your $30k+ car? ;)
Subaru spits out more Imprezas in a month than their whole run of SVXi. The bottom line is, if you want a car that doesn't need replacement parts (at least not today), doesn't have expensive, unique, or rare replacement parts, and has a book value higher than a full replacement of a suspension, set of brakes, new tires, and maybe a transaxle... ...you may actually want an Impreza. |

My guess is we are about 4 generations apart. I'm cheap and proud of it, being cheap has made me an inventor, what you got to show for your spending excesses? I have a tranny that has been completely rebuilt that is available for your 2 gear mess, the price is $2,000. Still think I,m cheap?:) |
