I want EDMs for a '93 if anyone has them.

The model name or SKU/part number for the best and brightest Osrams would be great - I see:

Osram/Sylvania Headlight Bulb (standard) - $10
Osram/Sylvania Halogen - SilverStar (avoid?) - $24
Osram/Sylvania Halogen - Cool Blue - $17
Osram/Sylvania Halogen - XtraVision - $15

They all say 65W.

I have a present (and quick) need for headlamps - my car just failed VA inspection for bad adjusted / unbracketed headlamp in a front left slightly wrecked corner (after passing for the past 5 years with the same headlight). Anyway, would LOVE some of these E-code's and the Osrams. Can anyone recomm...

If anyone had pics of the '06 Legacy 17" wheels on a 90-94, I'd love to see them. Must look awesome. I'd like to throw some on when my current '04 WRX wheels/tires run out of tread.

I'm taking my toys and going home.

Surpisingly, the problem has now vanished. Now I can start the car without the clutch even depressed all the way to the floor... first turn, every time. Can anyone explain the on again off again nature of this probem?

I want them to get to 225 width vs. 205 on the WRX I have currently... late model outback wheels gets there, and seems like it would be a nice look and a decent ride.

I saw an outback with 225/X/16 tires and wheels. Any idea if a tire/wheel combo this wide will work on a 94 wagon? I've had 2 sets of WRX wheels (02 and 05) on my car, and I think the look of going from 205 width to 225 width would be nice... if it wouldn't rub. I know the wheel/tire height is signi...

That's cool (or that sucks... I guess it depends). So do I need to replace the starter, or is there something else I can try to take care of the solenoid contacts? I'm near the end... and don't wanna be stranded. Today after work it was 5 minutes without a single click (hot and humid), but then I st...

My car has been getting harder and harder to start because the clutch isn't completing the circuit when you depress it. If it does connect it fires right up, but no clicks or nothin when it does not connect the circuit. Any idea how difficult it is to replace this switch (how much it costs)... or if...

Well, 3 hours of labor (at $45/hr) later I have two new front bearings and my problems are solved. $200 for the total job (I brought in bearings - $60). Wish they'd done 2 hours, but hell, I'm happy to be able to hear my radio again! ... now if the droning from the rears (which I couldn't hear over ...

Thanks for the good reply 93leg. That's what I was thinking about hub vs. bearing, and its good to confirm that later model years should fit. I decided to get bearings (Timken - $30 each) for the front two corners and I'll have to do the back two corners soonish (these original hubs/bearings are at ...

Ok, anyone want to weigh-in on replacing bearings vs. replacing the entire hub? Mainly I want to keep cost down at the shop.


(If the answer is hubs, what later model years fit?).

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller ...

Because I've gotten the distinct impression it can be easier (if doing yourself) and cheaper (if buying your own hubs and having a shop do it) to do the hubs than the bearing unpack/repack.

Wrong?

(still interested in answers to the original questions too)

--> Can anyone provide a rundown on what hubs fit our cars from later model years? --> Also factors that may make a fitment difference (left/right, front/back, 4WD/FWD, etc)? --> Finally, whether it makes sense to replace hubs as an easier/cheaper way of replacing burnt-out bearings. (ALL my bearing...

Question about HUB Part number 28373XA00A. (1st Subaru Parts had the following information): 28373XA00A $104.13 $0.00 $74.98 Front suspension - Brake components - Hub Hub Back 2006 28373XA00A $104.13 $0.00 $74.98 Rear suspension - Brake components - Hub assy Hub assy Back 2006 ======================...

Just to clarify... for the mechanically uninitiated:

1) Would a hub replacement fix all bearing issues? (Is there an "inside" vs and "outside" bearing issue? )

2) Would your hubs fit right on a 1993 Legacy Wagon (L 5mt)?

3) Why are they lying around vs still on your car?

Can anyone estimate a reasonable cost, per wheel for the bearing replacement?

Is there an "inside" vs and "outside" bearing issue? If so, which one is more likely to be the problem?

Cost is my major concern, given the $1000 value of my entire 220K mile Legacy!

Oh, I didn't see that little nugget. Oh well, I was hoping for a good new wheel source to further drive down the market prices... although who can argue when WRX wheels are 350 with new tires... dats cheep.

Does anyone have Scion wheels/tires up and running? They look pretty sweet and I'm guessing there is going to be a flood on the market at some point. Check out the pic at the bottom of this auction. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Subaru-Legacy-Impreza-17-wheels-and-tires-Baja-Outback_W0QQcmdZViewIte...

aw sheeet those look good. where do i get some for my slow ass car?

Nope, stock wheels and stock size tires for the first 200k... and yet, when speed was calibrated with time and mileposts on the highway, my speedo used to read about 10% too fast. Same thing on my Dad's 91 N/A 5MT. And, my thinking is as follows... If the speedo is reading 10% too fast, it must be b...

Are there any differences between the GT and a normal Legacy wagon other than the raised roof? You'd think GT means more power, but... if it ain't turbo... I ask because there's one with rel. low miles for sale in DC: http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/car/92267921.html $3000 seems a bit steep thoug...
