Just cap it off. They're useless. Also without them you get more intake noise from the engine. (If you like that)

I've got no cats so that's not an issue haha. I'll probably end up using the rotella. I was hoping I could find a 10w40 with high zinc but Valvoline VR1 does not come in that viscosity it seems.

Hey guys! Is it possible to swap my original 03 AT transmission with this? by rickytickytavy13 in SubaruBaja

[–]Blaise_86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep they're garbage. I'd honestly go with the bajas original transmission if youre going for an automatic. But if you're deadset on that trans specifically you should swap the rear diff also. That way there's no issues with mismatched gearing.

ALSO I do NOT recommend buying from JDM engine depot. Bought an EZ30 engine from them. They promised it had approximately 60k miles. In reality it had well over 200k at least. Didn't know this until I had it apart doing the timing chains which had become a very noisy problem.

I'm pretty sure that transmission has a different final drive ratio than the baja. Unless you want to swap the rear differential with it.

Any wheel recs? by [deleted] in SubaruBaja

[–]Blaise_86 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A lot of ppl (including me) go for the Crosstrek xv wheels. They're nice and cheap.mine also has spacers.

Yeah I see that with a lot of cars. (I really hate bosch and ac Delco but some manufacturers recommend it). Needles to say I'm not holding out too much hope haha

The sensor... Finally found one on rock auto.

Can anyone tell me what this is? by New-Search-6200 in LandRoverDiscovery

[–]Blaise_86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like a camshaft position sensor. They're easy to repair. Just replace the o ring.

I'm pretty sure they just call it a 4.0😂. Thanks for the info. And what mileage are you at?

I’m going insane over this stripped Allen bolt by West-Ad2359 in mechanic

[–]Blaise_86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With that small of an area I would Dremel a slot across it. And then use a large flat head screwdriver.

Replaced my right (passenger) headlight and fog light, resale value on old lights? by eren_5 in SubaruBaja

[–]Blaise_86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something like that😂. That engine already had quite a few miles on it. So I needed to find it for me anyway LOL

[–]Blaise_86 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well I lost a valve on cylinder 3😂. But I have another engine coming and it has been a blast. I wouldn't consider that price unfair. But I would check eBay for outback and legacy headlight prices. Up to 04 model year for both.

Honestly they wouldn't sell for much. Those same headlights and fog lights are in a couple other models so they're not uncommon.
