err, no, i gapped mine at .030 instead of .044 :D also, i change them every 2 oil changes, just to be sure since i don't want misfires again, basic NGK coppers, not iridium or any other fancy ones. Haven't had a problem since. here's the thread i started on the local board in Toronto http://www.toro...

hmm, having a new starter on hand couldn't hurt, but when mine died, it sounded a hell of a lot worse. don't know if anyone mentioned it or not, or if you've already figured it out: left to right, front to back 1,2 front cylinder numbers 3,4 back cylinder numbers firing order is 1,3,2,4 the book has...

sorry i'm just logging in now... good to hear you've gotten to the bottom of it. pump shot? i'm not sure how the filter works... if it is one way... and you were hooked up wrong... it could be broken, as well as the pump. If it isn't one way, then it should be fine? meant to ask you what are your pl...

it says a fuel pressure gauge, i assume like what you would put inside a gauge pillar. as for is your FPR too big? funny you mention that. had a friend with a ver2 sti swap in his 93 wagon. For some reason the previous owner put in a monster regulator, and it caused all sorts of problems. He ended u...

That sucks. I have no suggestions... my starting problems always seem to be electrical-related. It sounds like maybe you've isolated the problem though? Here are the two entries from the Haynes manual. Maybe something will jump at you? If something does, i can look up the related troubleshooting ste...

I haven't done it myself, no money at the moment... NICOIWRX has... stock ecu for a 91-94 series turbo legacy is tunable. But the shop that did it is out here near Toronto. Maybe you could send the ecu in for a base map but i'm pretty sure you'd rather have it dyno tested and tuned right? Maybe they...

That's where it would be if were newer.....the ECU is in the dash on the drivers side, just left of the steering column on these cars. :shock: ? he has a 94, i have a 93... mine is in my floor isn't it? hmm, maybe i'm thinking of my '96... can't remember the last time i touched (if ever) the ecu in...

lol, i'm thoroughly enjoying watching this... Think i've killed the clutch in mine (or at least terrified of driving it because it'll break down on my 140km drive somewhere)... can't afford time or money to get it fixed right now... so i'm living vicariously. carry on! by the way, what's giving you ...

hmmm, something to consider i guess. I haven't done ALL of the research into it, but my friend says that the new 05+ Legacy turbo, uses the same type of transmission as the 98 RS. The clutch is the same part # between the two cars. I would assume that this means the p-plate would work as well. If it...

on a similar train of thought, friend of mine is planning on converting his car to propane, the way cops and taxis run out here. conversion is rather expensive (think he said around the $3k mark) but propane is HALF the cost of gas up here. If i could reduce my gas bill in half, this thing would pay...

Tranny swap on level of difficulty was probably harder then it should have been. What we should have done was find a 92-94 Legacy turbo 5spd for parts. We didn't because there wasn't anything with low mileage around or from a trusted source, and i think also because my friend had all the RS parts re...
