Oh man,
So tempted.

Oh and I also ordered some Wet Okole covers to match the interior. The neoprene covers look really good on the WRX seats:

Looks like I've got a fuel pump that's starting to give up. The truck has been running extremely lean which I'm sure has contributed to some of my higher engine temps. Also, I've noticed a significant loss of power (specifically on hills) over the last couple weeks. Injectors have been cleaned so all signs point to a bad fuel pump I think.
One more item to add to the growing list of maintenance items I want to address soon.

Fuel filter?

Fuel filter?
Or maybe an issue with the fuel pump resistor?

How do you know it's running lean?

I have an Ultragauge Bluetooth on a 95. The code it gives is P070, bank one O2 sensor. Does your 95 give the lean mixture code?

Looking at the fuel trim numbers on my Ultragauge. No CEL codes or lights.

Or maybe an issue with the fuel pump resistor?

Could be a filter issue or a resistor. In any case, there's a fuel delivery issue that is showing very lean air/fuel numbers.
 
I've been considering that with mine too. Looks pretty good.

Thanks. Waiting the 7 day monstaliner cure time before putting the rack back on, which should help with the overly white sparse roof look :)
 
Did an oil change to the new YZZD3 oil filter.
Changed my throttle cable.
Changed my belt moulding inside and out on both front doors.

Still need to change my window run and lube all the moving parts and clean up the motors, and do the back doors.

The pump is super easy to swap out, I did mine in maybe 1/2 hour and I was fairly drunk. Don't forget to order a new strainer.
 
Did you drop the tank?
I did mine before last trip last week, and pulled back the carpet unscrewed access panel and the pulled out old pump installed new pump and filter 30 mins.
 
Quick mod last night to move my Ultragauge. I've had it mounted to the top of the steering column for a long time but from my driving position it blocks everything from the L indicator down. So I wanted to move it over to the A pillar so it wasn't blocking the gauges.

Here's how it's been....yes I know the temps are a bit high. This was from last week as I was looking at fuel trims to find out the truck is running very lean, causing it to run warm.

So started with a simple cardstock mockup of a new bracket.

Which was then cut from 16ga sheetmetal and cleaned up, bent and painted.

Used some double sided adhesive Velcro to hold the Ultragauge to the bracket and attached the bracket to the A Pillar.

No more blocked gauges.
