Official, not a scion.
 

It's official, my car is badged correctly.

Lol don't mention you need more power lol I'd say bigger fuel tank, keep the weight the same on next gen.

Tell them they need to address the fuel starvation issues when taking a banked high speed high g-force left sweeping turn on the... interstate.

Also, power steering cutting out when you have wide tires that you're aggressively turning from side to side, but definitely not during any form of motorsports because that would void the warranty, is not a safety feature. It's a liability.

The real concern here is why are you using Internet Explorer? hah

not only that, but looks like Windows 98 :D

We are old. These newfangled Chromefoxzilla things confuse us!

They have upgraded?

Back in my day 3.1 was the new hotness. Now it's all "touch the glass, it's magic!"

Hey I remember when windows came out and it felt like we were suddenly living in Star Trek!

come on man, DOS is where it's at.

Bonus points if you booted DOS from a 5 1/4" floppy

They will just direct you to the section of the manual that says not to do that.

Man, Xerox was way ahead of its time with adding an X/Y mapped user interface on top of the file structure and linking specific coordinates to certain file locations and commands. Mind blowing.
The best part was writing custom batch files to free up enough himem from the operating system so you could play games that were so awesome they came out on multiple floppy disks. Now I don't even remember the file extension.

That was me. I still have a number of 5.25" and 3.5" disks around my house somewhere. lol.

You can find a USB drive for the 3.5" but dammit, I need something that can read my 5.25" disks!

i got a 3.5" floppy for you :thumbsup:

Wow, I remember doing mine a few weeks back and didn't even bother to realize it was Toyota branded. Congrats I guess?

And for all the joke suggestions, I think I only bitched about the coilpack failing and interior noises, I forgot about replacing the axle nuts until after I sent it. Oh well.

I can't believe no one has built/sells a bolt in fuel cell, or at least a baffled replacement tank for these cars that are tracked so much.

I've never heard about the steering issue, but I haven't autox or tracked this car.

Vista still works great. F you all!

I had no idea this silly post would become about operating systems. You never know where thus crowd will go.

I used to have to switch 5 1/4 disks in my Apple IIe. No hard drive.

And the mouse.

I still have copies of DOS 1.1 - 5.x laying around as well as a copy of Windows 1.1 loaded on my Windows 10 gaming computer (just to show off that it will work and what a piece of ugm...still needs work...it was). Here's a photo of the disks and a shot of the only useful thing in Windows 1.0.

I just found my original Woflenstein 3.5 disks.

Didn't see this topic taking a turn down the history of Windows OS or internet preference bias but back to the fact this is a forum based on Toyota 86 or Scion FR-S (Murica) and Subaru BR-Z is the reason you're posting here. Toyota has always fully supported the Scion brand. Seeing as pretty much every shell of the Scion FR-S, minus the front bumper and "86" front fender flares, is labeled "Subaru" via embedded labels. Subaru made the entire drivetrain essentially but offered alternative cosmetic aesthetics as well as interior options in collabing with Toyota/Scion for cheaper purchase points. So no, Toyota isn't the primary brand in my opinion. Subaru is and deserves their credit in this creation. Toyota/Scion is a visual and interior option with price varying. No push start, no heated seats, ...etc. Still 90% Subaru under skin. Toyota/Scion is an option until the discontinuation of Scion thus breeding the "Toyota 86" now being produced. Pop your hoods and check your quarter panels or pop your interior door panels off. "Subaru" is printed proudly.

Oh brother...:lol:

I still have a KIM and a SYM.
I am waiting for the Smithsonian to call.

brother...?

Back in the day... 5 1/4 floppy Oregon Trail, good times.

Oh sorry, you must the primary reason why new users have to dig thru countless post of useless BS when they hit "search" button to find facts. New person searches for useful facts but have to dig thru useless replies like yours to find any helpful information then get scolded for expediting the desired question by posting a new thread and asking for links. Thought the points of forums was to share knowledge while not scolding the curious????

Example in this forum: Started with the nature of the Toyota/Subaru build of FR-S/BR-Z that got diluted to OS and Internet Browser being used and I brought the post back to it's main topic. You posted this on a FR-S/BR-Z forum, Sapphireho. If you wish to have a d*&% measuring contest on OS or browser preference, there's more appropriate places for that. Car forum here..stop diluting useful information to people seeking that.

This thread (part of a forum not a forum) was started by the guy you are harrasing. It was not an analytical assessment of who made what but a light hearted semi joke. You want useful info go to the tech threads. The rest of us will enjoy the social interaction of which you seem oblivious.

Subaru assembled the car. They didn't make anything.

Do you not realize how stupid that sounds?

lol this is where your root hatred started! Simplicity at it's best.

Do you know who made the parts? Not Subaru. They just bolted them together. There is a list on here and Mitsubishi made more parts on the car than Subaru did. They literally just assembled them. You do know the differences between manufacturing and assembly right?

Oh look at the times dude. I read ALL threads. You are in no way special to me.

Moto-East was working on a surge tank set within the engine bay. I haven't heard anything about it in a while though. I don't know if they're still working on it or not. Beyond that, you're looking at universal auto racing fuel cells and surge tanks.

The steering issue is because the power steering is electric and doesn't have a whole lot of cooling. For normal and slightly excessive use, it's fine. But if you're really working it hard (TWSS) it'll overheat and shut off. And boom, manual steering.

Also, fuck yeah, Wolfenstein. I don't think my computer could run slow enough to play it though.

I was thinking about this fuel starvation issue today while going to the gas station with less than one quarter tank gas. Maybe this is not as big of an issue as we perceive. I have read many times in this forum about fuel starvation but haven't seen really somebody experienced a failure because of it. Do you know any such case reported here?

There are several people that have experienced fuel starvation during heavy track use. Most are FI so they may be sucking way more than stock anyway. I do not recall a single case where they mentioned failure due to it.

FI with e85 you're sucking fuel really fast.

True, except for the frame, suspension, hubs, brakes, body panels, safety equipment, engine block, motor accessories, and wiring. Everything else was just assembly. Either way, its much more a subaru than any other mark.

Shhhhhh!! Don't say the M word, the only positive that came from Mitsubishi were the original Eclipses, EVO, and Diamond Vision. Aside from that everything they touch turns to crap (consumer electronics, cars, and banking).


:)

There is a list of who made what. Subaru themselves make virtually nothing. Almost no car manufacturers make parts anymore. You are confusing Subaru contracted parts with Subaru made parts.

Here you go Subie fan boys that think they make things

GM8 is still best Subaru.
