Re: Its Finally Time, and looking for tips

Yesterday we finally got the car running, after all the bad weather stopping us, she is finally running again!

I will say, using Impreza 1.8L Motor Mounts are a PITA, but they do work if you can wedge them in there. The engine sits a little farther forward and up, but not too much.

While that engine was in the 92, it didn't run the greatest, but now that its in the 96, and all the vacuum lines are replaced, she purrs.

The trans also shifts great for sitting so long, nice and smooth shifts.

The tires need some work, but I expected that.

However.....

Now I either have a Power Steering Line, or the rack itself, is leaking on the exhaust, and she smokes like crazy.

So that will be the next thing I try to track down. But, at least Calista is back on the road again.

I also started a thread for parting out Yori, see signature
