Posted by Matt K (89 SE 5spd) on October 06, 2003 at 10:09:40: well, I do believe the max is headed off to the big racetrack in the sky :( the clutch started making some crazy noises and smells, so I took it in to my mechanic (who I trust very much), and he tok a look. He's not sure if it's clutch or transmission issues, but more importantly hethinks that the rust level has finally made the car unsafe to drive. He's afraid that f I wreck it it's just gonna crumble around me. So, I guess I'll pull the parts I either want to keep or sell and send it off to the scrapyard :( I'll let you guys know when/if I have anything to sell. So... time to start looking for a new car. I think I want a 98 or newer subaru 2.5 RS. Any opinions? Also, any good places to look for info about htese cars? Thanks. Replys: I noticed you've got eibachs......any chance you'd be selling those off? Let me know... J (92 SEauto) 23:07:17 10/08/2003 (0) Dang, sorry to hear that Matt.... Lordrandall (92se5) 11:49:17 10/06/2003 (0) Rust?! Sorry to hear. Even with yearly undercoating(?), this bad piece of news is still reality eh? n/m Will (93 4dsc) 11:09:00 10/06/2003 (1) yeah, what can I say? 15 years of new england salt is a bitch :( nm Matt K (89 SE 5spd) 12:12:11 10/06/2003 (0) Sorry to hear that. For the Scooby, either an used WRX or nothing! Jeff92se (92se) 10:38:20 10/06/2003 (8) Doodsaq.. RS's are great and cheap too.. Jacob ('03 WRX) 11:05:47 10/06/2003 (7) Wha? I gotta spend $10k and THEN do a engine swap? Jeff92se (92se) 11:08:23 10/06/2003 (6) Wha? I gotta pay $20k for a WRX? Jacob ('03 WRX) 11:34:36 10/06/2003 (5) I think a Mitsu VR4 is probably more reliable than a RS with a engine swap Jeff92se (92se) 11:49:54 10/06/2003 (4) You are saying a Mitsu VR-4 is better more reliable than a WRX Jacob ('03 WRX) 15:28:00 10/06/2003 (3) I dunno. Are you saying VR4s are that bad? n/m Jeff92se (92se) 15:35:13 10/06/2003 (2) eh, not really into the galant, Matt K (89 SE 5spd) 17:45:21 10/06/2003 (1) Ok. n/m Jeff92se (92se) 18:20:30 10/06/2003 (0)
