Re: Tie Rod ends

I also definitely would be interested in a good source for tie rod ends.

I may grab a couple of newer more common Subaru tie rod ends that look about right and see if any actually match up.

Re: svx sounds diesel

The high fuel trims and rough running makes me think vacuum leak or air getting in after the MAF. Do the basic look around and make sure you didn't leave a hose undone. There are quite a few and its...

Re: Water pump failure and mysterious large ring

I rebuilt my engine completely and I swear I don't remember seeing that ring anywhere inside of it.

Maybe it is a part of the water pump that broke off?

Re: Rear lateral link upgrade

So far it has not been super noisy, but my standards are pretty low. I am driving it from Iowa to Chicago and back here in two weeks so we will see how it does with that.

Those 2010 Camaro...

Rear lateral link upgrade

I went to do an alignment on my SVX after I had the steering rack out and found the rear camber / toe on the left side were way out of spec to the point where I suspected something was bent. I did a...

Wiper control module location

It seems that the wiper control module in my 1992 has died and the front wipers no longer work at all.

Does anyone know where the module is located? The wiring diagram I found claims it is "Behind...

Re: I am ready to blow this car up. Won't start now.

I definitely don't have a spare cable but I may have a spare selector switch laying around.

As for the head bolts, I used the originals when I rebuilt the engine in my SVX and have had no issues...

Re: 94 Svx

pppjr63, what exactly is wrong with the engine mount on your SVX if I may ask? I had both of mine split when I pulled my engine out and I ended up doing a mod that was somewhat common a while back...

Re: Reading 19 SIGNUP LIST

Yeah it definitely seems like the forum is a much less active place than it was 10-15 years back, but I guess the cars have gotten older and harder to find, and even the ones that are low in miles...

Re: Hydra Nemesis

Sadly finding one of these things at this point is probably somewhere between extremely unlikely and impossible. Same goes for the ECUTune Supercharger kit that I would love to get my hands on.

I will definitely go as long as I can find a copilot to make the drive a bit nicer.

Re: Not much left, '92 AWD

Any chance you have the steering intermediate shaft (the bit that goes between the column and the rack that has two u-joints on it)?

I am in pretty desperate need of one for my 92.

Re: 4EAT Phase II Version II Swap

Here are two of the harness I put together to adapt the WRX TCU to the old SVX TCU connectors and the WRX transmission. The entire thing...

Re: 4EAT Phase II Version II Swap

Well I had the chance to measure up a 5EAT in a 2006 Subaru Outback 3.0R and I compared it to the original SVX transmission.

Looks like the 5EAT is about 4-5 inches longer than the 4EAT so you...

Re: 4EAT Phase II Version II Swap

I love seeing other SVX owners in Iowa! Not too many of us sadly.

Also as far as I am aware all Phase 2 Version 1/2 VTD center diffs give you a normal split of 45/55 but I didn't spend the time to...

Re: 4EAT Phase II Version II Swap

Now its time for getting into the swap.

I will say right now the hardest part of the swap by far was the electrical side of it and so most of the time here will be spent explaining that, so that...

4EAT Phase II Version II Swap

A while ago I took it upon myself to swap in a Phase II Version II 4eat from a 2003 WRX, mainly because I was tired of blowing through the poor selection of used version 1 4eat transmissions I could...

Re: What are your other cars?

My daily is a 2011 Subaru Outback.

It has some minor changes such as a Perrin 22mm rear sway bar, and StopTech drilled / slotted rotors and pads all around.

It isn't the fastest car on the...

Re: 4eat technical questions

I will see about grabbing some pics. Sadly life has thrown a lot of projects at me all at once so it will probably be until the end of the month before I get them put up on here.
