I have an '03 OBS. Does anyone have a recommendation for some quality seat covers that fit well. I just need covers for the front as the rear seat is rarely ...
I currently have an 05 Forester but am thinking of trading it for an 05 Impreza Outback Sport. (long story, but I won't lose any money on the trade - basically...
Same Chasis + Same Engine + Same AWD system = Same Winter Performance I would "assume" that the tires on the forester are slightly chunkier all-seasons and...
Personally, I'd keep the forester. I'm not 100% on the differences, but as was mentioned, they are pretty much the same car. The only real differences I see...
http://edmunds.com should have all the info on weights, sizes, etc. I don't think there's much difference in weight. I would agree that the Forester probably...
our 03 OBS with manual trans is much quicker than the Forester, which in 03, was just a little less doggy than the legacy. The new platforms on the Forester...
If you're having problems with winter handling in your Forrester, your problem is probably tires. Not the car. The OEM Subaru tires are terrible. Also, AWD is ...
Please lend me your assistance: After jump-starting my car, following a lights left on related dead battery, the dash lights, radio lights and parking lights...
Hello all! I'm really considering getting an Outback sport as my next car. I want to modify it to be a total sleeper. Is that possible? Is the engine in the...
If you're looking for a sleeper, you might consider the new Legacy GT. It looks like a family sedan, but it's got a 250hp turbo engine in it. In fact, from...
Man, that's weird. Unless you have some sort of security system that's acting up, it almost sounds like something got fried when jump starting. Or else ...
When I wired my trailer hitch, I disconnected the battery for a while. When I re-connected it, I had the same symptoms. Hit your remote door lock/unlock. Mine...
Well, the blinking finally went away after I took it for another drive. Before this, I used the remote keyless entry to lock and unlock the doors, but the...
Don't kid yourself, the dome light stays on, and will kill the batt overnight or sooner (don't ask). But we didn't notice any blinking, the alarm buttone on th...
That would depend on the state of your battery. My wife's left her door open enough to leave the dome light on overnight more than once and hers started fine....
The OBS can definately be modified to be an incredible sleeper. If you are looking to buy new, I would go for the WRX OBS, b/c there are more direct bold-on...
There is a WRX sedan, too. ... wagon? Thanks for the advice. ... you are looking to buy new, I would go for the WRX OBS, b/c there are more direct bold-on...
There's a WRX sedan, and there's also a WRX wagon, but there isn't a "WRX OBS". ... From: james_98188 To: subaruimprezaoutbacksport@yahoogroups.com Sent:...

Uhh, probably... Here's what I *think* I know: STi will be lower. Less ground clearance. STi will have stiffer suspension. Could be bumpier. STi has quicker...
Has anybody resorted to a body lift on one of these cars? I've looked at a couple options.... The first being to simply raise the body from the suspension........
Have you checked into the differences with the other Imprezas, etc? I'm wondering how the factory does different lifts. I would assume it's spring height....
Levi: My guess is that the control arms are very slightly longer as well. To increase height by increased tower height/ spring height (strut would need to...
Yeah, thinking about it now, I probably shouldn't say that the control arms are the same. I'm reasonably sure they are, but then again, I could be mistaken....
Levi: A quick call to Subaru reveals that the lower control arms are identical.... but the strut assembly is different.. probably an inch or so longer I would...
Well, I definitely wouldn't buy from Subaru. (because of assumed price). I'd either go used at the pick-a-part, or http://car-part.com just to get to what I...
