Power steering o-ring fix
planelazy replied to yokotaalum's topic in Detailing, Maintenance, and Long-term care
You know what, I should have thought about that. I replaced the inlet and outlet lines for my ATF filter, as well as the filter themselves, and later noticed it's a bit wet. Should have used new clamps instead of reusing the original ones. -
Power steering o-ring fix
planelazy replied to yokotaalum's topic in Detailing, Maintenance, and Long-term care
Did anyone notice a leak coming from the pump (or the hose itself) prior to replacing their o-ring? I have an accumulation of some kind of fluid, either engine oil or PS fluid that is on my pump and collecting on the timing belt cover, so I'm not certain where it's originating from. AFAIK, the pump is original with 123k miles on it, so I'm going to replace the O-ring anyways, but I'm curious to see if this is a common issue with leakage. -

3D Printing Development Thread

Well I was thinking would it be strong enough to be used as brackets for under the hood stuff like a catch can or wire/fluid line mounts? -

How strong is the material? -
Anyone hear from Dave lately?

I jumped on the 68hta bandwagon when Forced Performance had their Christmas sale but I haven't installed it yet because their compressor housing is an STI style one. I bought RacerXs FMIC but ended up not liking pipes all over my engine bay so I'm just waiting for this TMIC. I could get the PW one with the STI hose but without a shroud Im not going to get it. Im going to stick with 93 octane but I am thinking of redoing my fuel setup from ID 850cc sidefeeds to their top feed conversion with 1000cc injectors. I'm pretty sure I will come close to my 300hp goal. I don't drive my car much so E85 is out of the question

Samco Intake and Coolant Lines
planelazy replied to acumenhokie's topic in Fifth Generation Legacy (2010 - 2014 )
Anyone installed the ancillary hoses yet? I cant figure out which vacuum lines get replaced -
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of that. Perhaps there needs to be a side by side comparison between IAT's between the LGT and the WRX to see if there's a difference? The only thing I can think why Subaru would make such a tiny scoop on the LGT is that for some reason, the LGT's hood is more aerodynamic than the WRX and doesn't require a bigger scoop to get more airflow? Like maybe it's just more laminar and not turbulent like the WRX? (Only guessing).

I must have missed where it said the STI version was also in development. Yes, the 08+WRX/LGT has the same manifold. I still have the LGT manifold. I do not however have a turbo with a flange like the LGT/WRX. Mine shoots out to the side, like the STI, but requires an extra hose that Process West sells ($98 or so at Rallysport). Since the PW TMIC is no longer offered in the US, this TMIC is pretty much my only feasible option, unless I do decide to go with an air/water intercooler setup, which I am still not completely sold on.
