Yes they do.
Wingroads however don't.

So Wingroad > WRX.

well a scooby is a nightmare for repairs. Seeing that you need to drop the entire subframe just to change plugs.

....100 years of experience fixing the same configuration of engine every year is 1 year of experience repeated 100 times...???

Oh dear yet another misinformed individual.

Don't let the look of the boxer engine scare you. Once you get down into it ... repairs are quite easy.

Would u believe , it's takes less time to change a clutch on a WRX Sti than it would to do the same job on an EVO 7 ? :shock:

>> food for thought eh <<<< :idea:

lol @ BlackXT .... darn Fozzy drivers :lol:

in the n/a scooby, the air box on the right and water bottle on the left can be removed for easier access...

when i changed the plugs it took around 1/2 hour

true dat, CJ, research before u post, otherwise trinituner will eat u alive man.
Subaru timing belt change is easy, u just gotta remember where and how everything goes back, and be careful not to lose the idlers. Changing plugs is as Travis said, Easier.

I'd leave it to a mechanic to do tho. :wink:
