stm25rs Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I'm reading through the coolant change and coolant brands threads. http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/coolant-change-90389.html http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/coolant-brands-46625.html There's almost as much discussion about coolant as there is about oil I'm just gonna go with the Genuine SOA unicorn juice coolant (SOA868V9210) and mix with distilled water.

compsurge Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) Any green coolant will work. If you put Dexcool in, you'll have issues...

BoozeRS05 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 ^ Good shit.. Radiator replacement is very easy. EB's Subaru journal - 2005 LegacyGT Wagon & 2014 Forester FB25 (2008 specB - RIP) IG@legacygtliving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Donated thefultonhow Posted June 20, 2014 I Donated Share Posted June 20, 2014 Next question...is anybody free on Sunday, and feeling helpful? I've never replaced a radiator before, but I'm sure it's oldhat for most of you guys here. I can pay in cash and/or beer and/or food and/or sexual favors. You got a garage to do the work in? If not, you can come use mine (and my tools, and I can help out as needed). I'm in Owings Mills, up by Reisterstown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in Owings Mills, up by Reisterstown. Thank you for the offer, but I think I'm all set. My mom lives up in northern Baltimore County, and we have some basic tools up there. I read a few walkthroughs and watched some youtube videos, and I've got everything I'll need. Also, I already made plans with my mom to grill out on Sunday and help her with some chores. For some reason I had it in my head that it would be a difficult process, but I'm sure it'll be easy. I've done spark plugs on my own, and radiator looks like cake compared to that.

compsurge Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) OEM swaybars from my '05 wagon are up for grabs if anyone needs a set. Get them out of my attic for FREE (well, I'll get them out - you take them home)! Also, gauging interest on an IPR TMIC with no fitment issues and AVO throttle body hose. Reason for selling: I have been running the stock TMIC and this has been sitting in a box unused. CNT downpipe will be coming off soon as well.

I Donated thefultonhow Posted July 13, 2014 I Donated Share Posted July 13, 2014 Interested in the sways. Do they come with endlinks? Where are you now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compsurge Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 (edited) I'm in Wilmington, DE. I think the sways have 3/4 good end links. I will check later. Edited July 13, 2014 by compsurge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"3/4 good" is good enough for me. I just need something I can put back on should I ever decide to trade up to a '15+ WRX. I can probably meet up next weekend if that works for you.

Moderators BarManBean Posted July 14, 2014 Moderators Share Posted July 14, 2014 TFH, it's possible that I have an endlink lying around somewhere--remind me to check if I don't shoot you a message in a couple of days.

I Donated thefultonhow Posted July 14, 2014 I Donated Share Posted July 14, 2014 I actually have a set of front endlinks. Would just need the rears if these don't come with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
