I don't have a legacy anymore, but I've had 1.5 of them in the past.

I currently drive a mid 90's impreza wagon, which has been parked at my dad's house in latham for 2 weeks, and a 90's red bmw coupe.

dude i swear i saw you, HAD to have been you man hah

QuackGT208 · « **Reply #18 on:** June 21, 2011, 05:07:50 PM »

I'm gettin very very frustrated on these hills guys

Photofixer · « **Reply #19 on:** June 21, 2011, 07:53:24 PM »

Oh with stalling it ? Just gotta ride the clutch alittle bit until the car starts moving... remember what I told you when you were driving the Saabaru.. Let it move out Two or three feet then let off the clutch..... It is kinda hard on that car considering how hard you have to push the damm clutch pedal... .. I think the pressure plate needs to be replaced.. and they just tightened the hell out of the clutch to compensate for it...

Right now I am still researching some Rotors / pads for you... So far I found some for 64 bucks each... Still looking....

Napa Premiums ( Rotors) for your car are 35 bucks EACH! For the Front.. 30 Each for the Rear,, a Set of pads 60 bucks.. THERE YA GO.. 12 mo warranty or 12k miles whichever comes first...

70+60+60=190.00 without tax... that's a HELL of a deal..

a clutch kit for your car is 250 bucks.. Which isn't too bad... trying to remember what I paid for my clutch kit...but it also came with a Flywheel..

Steve, I use Photobucket and then just copy the code with the IMG tags in it , I will show you next time I am around and you are not at Billy's

Yeah i just get like nervous when there is a car behind me so i dont wanna screw up and my leg starts shakin because of how tense my leg is and i just clunk out and stall. But today when there was no cars behind me i did it just fine, i kinda feathered it and didnt stall

It will most likely take me a month or so to save up that kind of cash(maybe)

and ill figure the whole photo thing when i take pictures of the detailed car

i need steelies eventually too, i still have yet to call freddy about the history of the car, and ill be asking him / searching online for a set for winter

If you're nervous about rolling back into someone, use the e-Brake until you feel the car start going.

spoolordie · « **Reply #22 on:** June 22, 2011, 08:38:15 AM »

i still use the ebrake technique on really steep hills were talking real steep

if

A. the turd behind mes way way to close(not often)

B. the engagement on my clutch is slowly getting farther and farther out (getting worse and worse lol)

QuackGT208 · « **Reply #23 on:** June 22, 2011, 05:02:02 PM »

ive tried the e brake thing but it doesnt help when my cable needs to be tightened

Kavik · « **Reply #24 on:** June 22, 2011, 05:07:13 PM »

I don't know if it's the same on the legacy as on the impreza...but:

Adjusting the cable: remove the center arm rest area, the adjuster is right there

Adjusting the shoes: There's a rubber grommet on the inside of the backing plate of the rear rotors, pull that out, insert screw driver and lift up a click at a time till they're snug and the wheel doesn't move, then turn back down about 7-10 clicks (if I remember right)
