that harness says that it is for 05 only! i have an 06! as far as the cans go....idk now. i have my exhaust at home waiting but it has the stock y-pipe and no mufflers. i need to put high flow mufflers on and i have a set of ebay special N1 cans but i am not sure if they will last as they are cheap ebay stuff and i dont want to get what one of my friends called "hone"! he described it and i dont want that but i also can see spending another 450-600 for nice can when i already spent 800 on the setup i have now!

 

here is what i got

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/4-N1-JDM-TITANIUM-BURN-TIP-EXHAUST-MUFFLER-SILENCER-B_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trkparmsZ72Q3a1205Q7c39Q3a1Q7c66Q3a2Q7c65Q3a12Q7c240Q3a1318QQ_trksidZp3286Q2ec0Q2em14QQhashZitem270281848301QQitemZ270281848301

 

as far as those cans goes say $50:):):)??????

 

anybody have any other ideas?

im back and not happy

 

heres the scoop, im going to make it as cliffnote as possible

 

-got turbo replaced at 56xxx

-drive about 30 miles car makes rattling noises again

-drove like a old man for 2k

-changed oil

-rattling continues but has gotton worse since turbo was replaced

-drop car off at subaru

-one week later get phone call saying car drove fine no noises herd

- drive over to dealership pop hood crank car and service wirter hears loud metallic rattling right away

-tech works on my car comes out and says its rod knock

-leave car there and wait for tear down

-drive 87 toyota truck(reliable vehicle)

-month later get a call saying that since the noise isnt continuous that i should wait till it gets worse due to the fact that engine may still be within spec, if i chose to get it torn down now i would be liable for teardown cost if engine is in spec

-ask to get it in writing and signed by the service manager, incase my engine explodes after 60k so im not fubar

-hes out of town till monday

-pissed cause this is another 20 dollars worth of gas im going to spend in gas

-today drove to st augustine and back

-car sounds like absolute shit

-currently looking at other subarus for sale orrrrr a toyota

 

 

i really like my 05, its rare, love the ride, but i feel like im getting the run around on my car, out of the 3 or 4 problems ive had only 1 has been fixed(window switch), if this how its going to be i may be better off with another car, my 310,000 mile celica has less problems

so you havent had the thing torn down yet???? fark the LGT engine and pick up an sti engine. i seriously dont know what you would do with your car if it is f'ed as much as you say! how much do you owe on it? Was it used when you got it? How many miles were on it?

well i think i may call soa, again, soon. btw my cans wont just hook up to stock exaust

 

 

i do have stock 500 mile 08 2.5i cans collecting dust

 

as for using only sbaru filters, its really sad if you have to use one single dealership filter which is probally made by wix, which would be a rebaged napa gold filter, in order no to have a engine failure. I do find it very helpful how the dealership keeps trying to scare me out of getting my car fixed, or can find anything wrong , never had any problems till i went to the dealer, lesson learned.

well i couldnt get them to just give me a replacement turbo, trust me i would have rather done the work myself.

 

oh and the borla system uses clamps instead of flanges homes

 

if you are talking about my exhaust, i have an unequal lenght borla header for a 2.5rs, and random technologies high flow cat and a magnaflow resonator and then the stock y pipe and mufflers. i need high flow mufflers and that is it. everything bolts up like normal.......so are you interested now??? I need some bad!

 

BTW...here is what i got http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=91037

Never been to the dealer ever in any car I have had. If I screw my car up I want to know I did it and noone else screwed me over.

 

FWIW, I have brought my car to the dealer since day 1. It's not very costly and every record is on file (I have them too). This way if anything goes wrong...I'm covered.

 

Just my thought...I never had any issues w/ Sojax. They have always been great to me.

they have been good to you cause u can afford to let them do what services your reccommended

 

im barely making it due to im helping my family with things seeing as they are going though a hard situation right now, this means i fix everything myself, i cant afford to burn half a tank of gas to go from my hose to sojax and back when i can just do almost everything at my house. I was a mechanic before i got into my car accident.

 

guess ill keep the damn car considering i just bought 4 new tires for it

well i stethoscoped the engine, rattling noise is comming from the snail, go subaru, oh and my dads seat developed a rip and they dont want to fix it(ripped on the seam):rolleyes:

 

that is gay. i had a weird ware make in my seat and they fixed it no ?'s asked. I think that was also due to Clay still being there! i dont know if there is a 2nd person in there again or if Kay is the only one but i dont take my car in unless i really need to! i do all my work that is major!

Joe, dude, that's just nuts. I'll talk to one of the techs this weekend...he's a buddy of mine...and I'll ask him to check out your ride. Otherwise, why don't you talk to Kevin...he's always at the meets...cool guy...and has always been nice to me and the rest of us. Come to the meet this month...we'll chat with him...ok? Hope all else is well, with the fam. Tell your pops I said hello...I run into him all the time on 210...hehe.

 

Mike...wtf...how u been? Miss the wife, now that she's back home? Did she show you some more pics? There were about 80 shots from her set...hehe. Hope all else is well out there...I was gonna ask you about something...but, forgot now. When I remember, I will. Ever have a chance to go to a camera store, and find out stuff for me? If not, it's all good.

 

Hope all you others out there are doin' well. Carl, Obie, Todd, Geoff, Rypbrd...Anthony and I are fine...hehe. Hopefully I didn't miss anyone...if I did...sorry...brain isn't all there these days.

 

Cheers,

M.

All is well here..been busy at work and I had a kid in August. I may try to make the meet next Thurs...will get back with you on that.

 

I may need an introduction to your Tech friend as there are some things I need done and finding a good tech who is accessible is not easy.

 

Joe- I hope everything works out with your car...not cool.

Yeah man, I've been a busy as well. Not as busy as Todd though lol

 

Joe, that sucks man! I hope you can get it straightened out. Thankfully, I haven't had any major problems with my car *knocks on wood*.

 

My 60k is coming up pretty soon. Manish, do you think you could ask your guy if clutch issues are covered under the 60k powertrain warranty? I have a squeak when I engage my clutch, and I want to see if it can be fixed. That would be the only reason I take it in for service. I also need to look at that letter I got from SOA about the wheel bearing issue (that I haven't had).

lostdrift aka XBL tag: iNoScoPeDOBma Jacksonville-Powers Ave.

 

^^^WTF is that???^^^

 

anyway.......

 

manish--no i havent found a camera store worth any thing. The rain visors are at the house. I am going to have tina check them out tonight to make sure that are straight! Yes she showed me the pictures and she told me that kelly had a shoot with an austin martin and she was bummed b/c she didnt get to do it too! the pictures of tina look great though. i havent seen the ones of kelly with the AM but if you do another one with tina she would love to do something like that!:)

 

i STILL havent got a payment from magnetdropout so the other set may be up for grabs if my wife doesnt have it in her hands by tues!

 

i cant wait to get back to jax!
