FS [WA]: Stock engine parts fire sale
Ratmilk replied to EatingInternet's topic in Member Classifieds (2005 - 2009)
Anyone local to WA got an engine cover for sale? -
You're correct, needs to be almost 0. Your circuit has a total resistance of 16 ohms. Try setting on lead on your chosen ground point and the other lead on various pieces of unpainted metal. Try one of the brass screws holding the fuse box. Even though the fuse box is plastic the screw is still a good ground. EDIT: Only use this kind of ground for low voltage applications.

You can tap into the radio harness, I tapped into the fuse box because I didn't feel like removing the radio stereo trim. Here is the pinout for the radio harness http://ae64.com/Legacy-pinout.htm Your wires will go to the following Orange (illum+) : 1 Red (12v constant) : 10 Black (Ground) : 11 White (12v with ign on) : 14 Ground can tap into most screws that go into metal. Use a multimeter and set to ohm. Touch a piece of bare metal and the screw you want to use. Closer to 0 is better.

Tehnation's Ballin on a budget rebuild!
Ratmilk replied to Tehnation's topic in Engine Rebuild Threads (Engines Only)
Keep us updated on the exhaust. I'm in the same boat with mine, currently running catless up pipe and high flow 3" catted down pipe. It's a daily so I'd like it to be quiet but are there any low end gains I'm missing out on? -
I don't like wrapping the headers since they tend to be a fire hazard when exposed to oil or power steering fluid. You're better off looking for a new set of heat shields off a junkyard car. I would ceramic coat the up pipe, downpipe can be wrapped just make sure to seal with high temp silicone spray like DEI #10301

PM'd, HMU if that downpipe is up for sale again

Oil temp gauge sensor best location?
Ratmilk replied to neeksimons's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
I always thought the spot on the back of the block next to the turbo oil feed was the best location for temp and the front of the block underneath the alternator was best for oil pressure. Open to corrections, I am often wrong. -

Hella Wiring Question - does this look correct?
Ratmilk replied to VespaGTS's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Looks awesome! -
“Downpipe is easy, it’s just a couple of bolts and nuts!”

I second the extractor socket, everyone should keep a set of those. -
1320 Catless 3" Downpipe for 5EAT LGT
Ratmilk replied to whitexc's topic in Member Classifieds (2005 - 2009)
+1 to 1320 products, they're a bit cheaper than nvidia but the fitment and quality of materials is on par -
Leaking oil past axle seals
Ratmilk replied to Wjabob's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
I've never done one on my Legacy 5mt but if it's anything like the 02-03 WRX transmission that ring has to come off to replace the seal. As long as you mark where the ring sits and count how many turns it takes to remove then you will get the correct preload. Also be careful when reinstalling the axle, you can cause damage to the seal this way. -
Thinking of making i88 adapters
Ratmilk replied to k00laid83's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Correction, it's actually the "AUTO and MODE" buttons. And it's still holding up today, no issues since. -
On the Cobb site? I need one soon.

Thinking of making i88 adapters
Ratmilk replied to k00laid83's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Got mine installed! Climate controls didn't come on this morning, kinda freaked me out. After I parked and shut off the car I waited a few seconds then turned the key back to the ON position. Still dead. Went in to the office, googled the problem, went back out and put the key into the ACC position, waited two seconds, held the AUTO and MODE buttons, then put the key into the ON position. Immediately started working. To clarify, I don't believe this was any fault of the i88 adapter. It's a fantastic piece! -
I'm on the West side of the cascades but if you're planning a drive can I bring my bugeye?
