Hi, I'm new to this group, and on the verge of buying an Impreza and looking for some feedback. I'm split between a 2002 OBS and a WRX wagon. One of my main...

Hails to everyone. Has anybody out there ever replaced the rear combination tail light? I thought it was going to be a quick 10 minute task. Any info is much ...
I've heard it's a real pain. Like a 1-2 hour job. I don't remember what the issue was. ... From: bassesofdeath To: subaruimprezaoutbacksport@yahoogroups.com ...
As far as the slugishness of the OBS - I feel my 2.2 OBS has plenty of pep - BUT, I have a 5spd. I have driven 2.2 and 2.5 OBS autos and do not like the...
I just took delivery of my '02 OBS two weeks ago. I may be able to offer you some prespective as I too was looking at the TS Sport Wagon vs. the OBS vs. WRX...
I have the 2002 OBS, auto, and traded up from a 2000 OBS, manual. The auto is no big let-down, as the car gained about 23 hp in the redesign and seems plenty...
I have the same problem, 99' OBS with 78k miles. The dealer told me I needed to have the Piston Pin Cover replaced, it's on the back of the motor and the...
Lot's of opinions from the OBS owners, here's one from a former OBS owner, now a WRX wagon owner. There are good points and bad points to this decision. I...
I'm new to the group and new to the ranks of OBS drivers. I purchased a black '02 model on March 20 from Morrie's in the Minneapolis suburb of Wayzata. I got...
Here's a tip: practice. Every car and every AWD implentation behaves differently in snowy conditions. You'll have to learn your specific car. Yes, the back...
Cool, thanks for the tips. Yeah, I definitely hear ya on your primary advice: practice. Practicing is certainly fun, too. I'll have to perhaps make a run...
I had my RS at its first event when it was about 1 month old. I've been in 6 events now and have sustained no body damage that I can find. The only mishap...
Shut up, shut up, SHUT UP! I already have too many hobbies as it is, I don't need to add auto racing to the list => Seriously, though, thanks for the info....
(Apologies to those who already read this in the MN subaru discussion board. I thought it could use a little more general audience, so I re-posted here) A...
That generation Civic makes a great rally beater. There's lots and lots of parts and modifications out there for them and their power/weight ratio is pretty...
I believe one popular nick-name is "Scooby-Doo" (which I don't particularly care for); haven't heard many others. I usually call it a "Subaru", or maybe a...
I have a 2002, but my CEL experience might be relevant to yours. I got a few CELs shortly after picking up my car; the first was from not tightening the gas...
I believe it is actually nick-named "Scooby" over in Europe, but I have never heard it called "Scooby Doo." That's just kind of silly. ;-) I don't like the...
Andy- As much as I love the idea of the WRX, Ohio is CRAWLING with state troopers. Therefore, unless you wish to get banged daily with tickets, having a car...
much as I hate to expound on something as dumb as this, I think the term "Scooby" is short for "Scooby Doo". Scooby-Doo and Subaru have the same number of...
Not sure if there ever was a GB, but you can buy heaters and install them yourself for about $100/seat from leatherseats.com. There have been a couple group...
I'm thing about naming mine "Zubu". My nickname is Kinzua Kid. I was calling the Outback "chunky monkey" so you can tell I have some extra time on my hands....
Hello, I have been searching the Net but have only come across some pretty expensive options. I am looking for a set of Alloys for a 97 Impreza OBSport, at a ...
Finally hooked up all my extension cords together and dragged my blowdryer out to my car....and you guys were right, those suckers peeled right off of there!...
