    Lol, she came in for rear brake pads cause they looked a tad low and her rear pass. rotor is all grooved up, but one the way home she ate through the inner front pass. pad and started grinding away (somehow the wear indicator tab had broken off - so no warning squeal), so she probably turned around and came back for the fronts.


    Oh - and thanks for helping her out right over there at Morrie's. We both really appreciate that!

    Yeah unfortunately I was only planning on getting rear pads and rotors. But after I got home I noticed that the problem was significantly worse in the front. There was severe grinding in the front passager side, probably could hear me from a mile away. So I had to come in again. I can't get enough of Morrie's Subaru.
    Actually starting this weekend I'll be working near you guys off of Hopkins Cross Road just a little north of 394. So that's pretty cool.:)

    Hey there. I'm not really new to the site, but I never really posted anything about myself.

    I like Subarus. I love my STi. I help organize rally events (come to Nemadji Trail 1 on May 9th, 2009 ;) I need an extra set of wheels and some decent snow tires.

    Nice to meet all of you.

    Hey!

    Just saying hello. I am new to this forum. I've had my 05 WRX Wagon for a year or so. I began making my modifications this winter...and look forward to the future changes (whatever those may be). Went to the Firestone meet up on Friday night...it was cool talking to people in the area about thier cars.

    Have a good one.

    Hi,
    I am pretty sure I used to be a member on here years ago. I grew up in Eau Claire, then moved to Iowa after college. I ended up back here following a link for Forrester XT that is for sale but I couldnt see the posting so I re-joined.

    My current subies are:
    1997 Legacy GT
    2000 RSTi
    2001 v4 GF wagon
    2006 Baja Turbo

    pcwerk is in the house!

    thought I would introduce meself and bump up my post count to see
    classifieds one day (really bad idea for those selling, but I digress). i've
    been on for way more than a month but I have little time for bs. if my
    post count is waay low, you may not see me again (of course, unless I
    have a question ;-)
    That said, my wife has a 96 Outback that we got taken on about a year
    ago and i struggle to keep it going. My fault for not looking it over better
    (hey, it was winter and i wanted to get out of the cold!). It cranks and runs
    and all but has numerous oil leaks and a horrible "grinding" sound coming
    from engine that I didn't hear when test driving ;-( I also think the clutch
    is getting ready to go.
    On the bright side, the body isn't too bad and it sure gets us through the
    snow. I finally found a decent wrench here in Rochester but the trouble is
    getting the funds gathered to take care of it all (oh, it also desperately
    needs the timing belt replaced). anyway, a shout out to Bigshot Bob who
    got me on this site ;-)
    peace,
    pc

    Wuddup peeps. I been browsing here every now and then. Have a 02 bugeye for 6 months now. I don’t know too much about performance/cars, but could at least maintain my car and I guess everyone starts from some point. I’m hoping to learn more about how to drive my car to the peak and even get into auto-crossing. We’ll see as time goes.

    New guy here

    Hey eveyone! I am a subaru tech at a local dealership. I have been working on them for 12 years. Im not real current on the high performance aftermarket, but for general repair, diagnostics and tips, Id be glad to help. I currently have a 97 gt wagon that Im trying to do some mods to. In the future Id like to put a turbo on it. If you guys have any tips or take off parts let me know.

    Hello!

    So, I technically don't own a Subie, but Roon does, and well, I am the pants of the relationship, so basically I get it [the car] whenever I want.


    I'm Roon's girlfriend, Julie. I have always been interested in Subarus, and have driven a couple at the dealers. I've checked into getting a Legacy for myself, or maybe a WRX. It's not in the cards for me right now to get one, but they are definitely some of the highest on my list!

    Right now I drive an 08 tC, and it's a good daily driver, as I drive from Little Canada to New Hope for work. As for work, I'm a veterinary technician. I'm a pretty open book, and I'm sure Roon is going to be psyched that I'm on here. Surprise! :)

    See ya 'round the boards and on the roads!
