    Time for a new clutch and timing belt kit, pull motor or trans?

    Ok I haven?t been around lately just due to busy schedule, but I?m here now and figured I give an update. Did the timing belt, water pump and all the idlers and such for the timing belt. It went super easy, and used the Aisin Japanese kit. The old original timing belt with 130k miles looked...

    Some of my current cars and a few from the past

    Sorry for the late reply! The truck is a 1960 ?double cab? or ?crew cab?. It?s still a bus but the rear is obviously converted to a truck. The bed sides fold down and turn it into a flatbed truck. It seats 5 people somewhat comfortably. Very rare and unique VW for sure, and earlier ones like...

    Time for a new clutch and timing belt kit, pull motor or trans?

    Batmobile_Engage--thanks for the input, I was kinda thinking along the same lines....would be nice to clean up the engine bay etc and tinker around with rust prevention (POR15). She is actually my daily driver, however I do have my trusty old '64 VW to get me around while the STi is down so no...

    Time for a new clutch and timing belt kit, pull motor or trans?

    The clutch kit is the exedy oem kit and I paid about $200 for it, the timing belt/water pump kit was $250 each. Suspension still squeaking to this day [emoji16] We did take the STi on 2 more cross country trips out to the west coast since the last time I posted here, wow 2 years have gone by...

    Time for a new clutch and timing belt kit, pull motor or trans?

    I was going to buy the gates kit, however I ran into a great deal on an oem belt, bearings, water pump, seals etc. so I bought two of the kits! One for the STi and one for the wife?s FXT. I bought a factory oem clutch kit for the STi (clutch, pressure plate, throw out bearing etc). I?ll be going...

    Time for a new clutch and timing belt kit, pull motor or trans?

    Hey guys, time for the old girl ('04 STi) to get a new clutch and timing belt. 130K miles on both :shock: so I figure it's way past time. Since I'm gonna be doing all the seals involved with the timing belt/water pump etc would it make sense to just pull the motor and do it all while the engine...
