  1. Found the answer to my own question. See this video and jump to ~9:00 [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwaHfU4qrdE]In Dash Nexus 7 Project - 2005 Subaru Legacy - Small Updates - YouTube[/ame]
  2. Quick question for those subscribed to this thread... For those of you using the OEM nav bezel with your nexus 7, can you confirm that the opening is a bit smaller than the nexus (2012 version) screen? Could you share a picture of your setup again? Please
  3. ^So? Pictures In the meantime, I am not sure if this was posted before: http://kruxor.com/?p=view&uid=53c35ebb92d6d&title=in-car-dash-nexus-7-work-log Found the actual thread that goes with it http://forum.liberty.asn.au/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=21888
  4. Thanks for your input heiche. So it should be the opposite then huh? It's funny cause I thought about these o-ring gaskets as well. I have not actually done a lot of work on the 06. I bought that car last March and put 9k so far on it. It is a stage 2.5 ish car. The only thing I have done to it so far is change all the plugs, put a new timing belt+new pulleys, and change the tb hose with an avo one+retune. that's about it really. Although I would note that I changed the timing belt because the 'old' one skipped about 3 teeths due to improper clearance of the tb guides (they were rubbing on the tb..). So I hope it is not related.. But yeah, I have not done the oring gaskets and I am not sure if the previous owner did those. I am actually hoping that's the case. But I've usually heard people having issues on multiple cylinders, not just one...
  5. Good to hear. Did you do it with the engine left in the car? I may have to tackle this on the driver side for my 06... Also, if you have bad valve clearance in a given cylinder, would you think it is more pronounced at idle when the engine is still cold? But as it warms up, the misfire may go away? I've been monitoring (thanks to your wonderful app ) roughness in each cylinder for the past three months now whenever I drive the car. And lately, I've been getting high counts in cylinder 2 while idling during colder weather and while the engine is still cold (threw a CEL twice now). As it warms up, the count usually stays at zero in that cylinder during idle. This engine does not consume oil btw, and the idle is not rough.
  6. Yeah that's it. Here is the post anyway for anyone wondering.. http://legacygt.com/forums/showpost.php?p=4570249&postcount=12
  7. I recall that our car usually does not idle at 14.7 but more like 14.2-4. Someone on here (I think it was Heiche) found a way to fix that. I'll find the thread. I pointed my tuner to it and it did the changes.

  9. Not really the same car, but did you see this? [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jxk4Pt55pp8]NEW RECORD: AMS Equipped 2015 Subaru STI Runs 9.681@147.39mph! - YouTube[/ame]
  10. I hear you. That's why I'm keeping my Spec enduro sx 04 frame for now. Old design I know. But still a blast to ride.
  11. Huh, I did not hear about that event. Were you into boost when it happened?
  12. Do you still get her into boost once in a while during your highway drive?
  13. Interesting cause. My #3 is slowly dying as well. Back of it is bulged a bit and monitoring roughness misfire counts at idle with the btssm app can go up to 3 (which is not much really). So I'll wait a bit.
  14. Do you know if the back of the coil pack looked bulged? Or did its outside appearance looked normal?
  15. well, I did not read all the details about this bricking business, but in my case I am using windows xp. I believe Microsoft has stopped providing official updates to this OS. So I am guessing people with windows xp should be in the clear
  16. In all seriousness, everybody should get one of those BtSsm. Freakin convenient man, while I still keep my VAG-COM cable+laptop to flash my ECU when needs be.
  17. do the usual suspects: swap coils. see if misfires follow. if not. swap injectors. see if misfires follow. if not, assess spark plug condition. if coil, injector, plug are OK, then time for a compression/leakdown test. May be in need of valve adjustment or bad ringland..
  18. No worries man. Hopefully that'll work for you. And thanks for your links. I'll definitely have a look as I STILL have not installed mine .
  19. How much free space is left on the tablet? I believe if it is less than 2-3GB, it begins to slow down. I experienced this and cleaned it up last week. It is a bit faster now.
  20. I know that on my car it can go as high as 49 deg of timing while cruising. stage 2.5.
  21. 45-47 psi? wow about 3 mpg loss huh..
  22. Actually I still don't like the look of the 5th gen Legacy. sorry
