Switch is the same, its the connector and length of wiring attached to it that changed over the years. So any switch will work if you feel like soldering. Its also the same switch as the neutral position switch.

Keep an eye on the harddrive. It doesn't look like you've left a lot of cooling for it.

Believe me, I've spent hours walking 100's of feet of cable trying to find a problem, only to discover there was an easy place to check for a problem. I'm not smart either, I just learn from painful experiences :) I figure its easier to check whether the stalk works than the motor in this case, as t...

I would also check for voltage at the motor... That would quickly eliminate the stalk as the problem.

If the PowerFC wants to drive 4 ignition channels, can't you just run channels 1 and 3 to the front coil, and 2 and 4 to the rear? Won't that basically run the coil / engine like the stock ECU does (waste spark)?

Or am I missing something in the question too?

I would think its the problem you noticed with the pad not moving in the bracket, not the sliders. Can't for the life of me remember what the older Legacys look like, but if they're the same as newer Subarus (its been a while since I've had my brakes apart), check to see if the metal clip is compres...

Another option for using front entry turbos

Was perusing Scoobynet, and came across this thread. Basically talks about raising the intake manifold enough to allow a WRX intake tube to fit underneath, allowing front mount turbos to be used.

Aren't the SVX rear axles setup differently? I remember something about one having a long stub and the other having a short stub. Its been a while though, so I'm not totally sure. I'd say that if you're getting the tranny and rear diff, it shouldn't be too hard to get the axles also. That's what I d...
