  1. I've had a vibration in my front end since I got my subie, I've done tires, rim swaps balanced the crap out of the tires done front axles/ checked all joints and still had a vibration. I have lived with it for about 30k miles. well this past weekend I did front pads and rotors and now I can actually drive at 75-80 with out any vibration!! come to find out it was the rotors that weren't balanced!!!! thanks to meineke for putting on the last set from the previous owner. I would never recommend using there crap of brakes ever!! I installed a new set from advance autoparts there silver line. so far no issues I've gone about 250 miles so far. cost threw my work about $75 for them :)
  2. In the last few days it's been the thermostat, water pump and timing belt.

     

    It only took 2 tries to get the timing right :icon_roll. Water pump was straight forward first try. T-Stat.... omg what a headache... I couldn't get it to seal... the o-ring is impossible to keep in place in the upper housing (with the T stat) while trying to push the lower housing up into place! Not to mention the first one was non OEM... so I got another... probably 8 tries in total to get the 2 good seals.! :eek: In the end I used some gasket goo to set the o-ring and thermostat on the lower housing and carefully put it up into place. eek. Hope I don't have to do that again for a loooong time!

    note: put the thermostat in before yo put the water pump on the car. much easier.

  3. anyone know why someone would disconnect the hill holder? I was cruzin down the block one day when all of a sudden no go?? popped the hood at the light and noticed it wasnt connected turned it the other way and drove away. tied it off with some tie wire and it seems to be fine. looks like everything is there but disconnected.why why why??

     

    mine wasnt hooked up when i bought it. sooo i spent 45 minutes finding new nuts to hook it up only to find out the clutch petal felt like a king cobra mustang clutch petal after i was done. so i disconnected it again. and I am alot happier with it disconnected.( so is my left leg):spin:you dont need it anyway
