What did you do to your subaru today?

Wiper blades do wear out you know. I've used the Bosch wiper blades and have liked them, you just need to change them when they wear out like every wiper blade.

 

I put on Rain-X Latitude blades on my RS a month or two ago. They have been great for me this summer. I ordered them on Amazon as it was much cheaper than in the stores. In the Winter I run Rain-X winter blades and those are great since I have to park outdoors all the time.

In order to stay on topic: I dorve my Subi to work and checked tire pressue. The cold has really brought the PSI down...

 

I bought the rainx blades this spring and I thin they suck after I rainx'd my windshield they streaked badly but the rainx is great I never use the wipers unless its really heavy rain. my 2cents

 

Swore at the faulty abs sensor I was changing. Didn't wear my gloves so I of course took a chunk out of my knuckles and for good measure when the sensor finally broke free half was stuck in the hub. Then I swore some more, and admitted defeat for the night. Didn't had a problem with 2 others that came out of a parts stash. Guess the abs light will stay on perm for a bit vs intermittently for a while. I suppose it is possible it was busted before but more likely I busted it when prying at the metal plate trying to break where it rusted to the hub. Damn.

edit: fixed. bye bye abs warning.

 

Put the fender liner and mudflap back on after it tore off at Ojibwe. Just ordered up some Hawk HPS pads from Import Image Racing.

 

new accessory belts, i think they were stock... new ac tensioner pully ( no mo squeel)

took off the cracked wheel and am running rice status, 3 black wheels one yellow.

 

found my freshly painted winter wheels and the fiancees mk2 to be vandalized... by my BROTHER!!
ass whoopins are in order...

time for new paint i guess...

 

Kartboy links all around (last night).

 

Put a deposit down on my new car... pickin it up on the 27th...... Stoked!!!!

 

What are you getting???

 

I drove it hard today. Clutch is slipping, getting it done this week. Full boost in 3rd/4th/5th smells good.

 

Ordered parts... can't wait for the downpipe to get here!

 

they shouldn't wear out within 2 weeks, my bad, it was the rainx contour blades, switched to the bosch weatherbeater and works excellent for 2wks now.

 

i agree

 

Installed the new Hawk pads and turned the rotors on Tuesday with some help from Turbo_turtle and Headwerks. Just got to get around to replacing the brake fluid and brakes will be good for awhile.

 

took the heads out.

yes, you can remove the heads of a DOHC n/a, without removing the block.
(My engine host is at a friends house)

 

Not really sure if this counts, but cleaned the entire interior of my impreza. I detail cars as a hobby so I enjoy it. The other day I put on my new Cobb knob. Love it.

 

started the process of refinishing my winter wheels...............stay tuned

 

Finished painting it Satin black!

Thanks a lot, this was my first time painting a car! I go into a lot of detail in that thread, but its Rustoleum Satin Black, and thats a 2005 STi catback *need to paint rims..

 

wow, that looks great for a garage paint job. well done

 

wasn't today, but 2 weeks ago. Sold the WRX, bought an Evo, best decision evar.

 

Enjoy.

 

agreed!

and today i found more rust

 

Went wingless a couple days ago. Shaved the key hole too. Crappy camera phone pic though

 

That looks killer!

 

yea that wingless looks real good. i like the effort you put in to shaving that key hole. looks professional

 

Thanks! I had a friend that works at a body shop help me weld it shut and do the body work on it. Looks like it came from the factory that way

 

primed my winter wheels for the second time in a month.
ugh...

 

last night dan with a small amount of help from me did my front ball joints and tie rod ends with the white line kit as well as did my rear struts with some new gr2's this is the bastard ball joint that took us 2 hrs to get out

 

I walked into the garage, looked at the LGT and saw how dirty it was, then walked back into the house.

 

Installed 09 STI fuel pump (175 l/hr) in my 08 WRX ( 155l/hr). Hopefully it can pump 750-850cc injectors for my E85 set up next summer.

 

Put in my flat fuel door and put in my Ukdm rear bumper. What a difference both of them made. I am happy camper.

 

Undertook the trunk lid chrome piece delete... write up to follow tomorrow after the paint cures.

 

Went wingless on my bugeye, did a quick imature job on the hole patching and reg black touch up on the 02 midnight black pearl. oh wells, it'll have to do for now, till i find a good deal on a carbon trunk or better same color trunk, or refinish it professionally.

 

Wednesday of last week, New Bilstein struts/shocks and RCE springs. Frickin Awsome!!!! Today Agency front brake lines, Stoptech pads all around, full line flush.

 

You finally got your suspension. Do they have this for sale to anybody now?

 

Long, Long, Long, wait. Over a year from conception to delivery. Well worth the wait. I don't know if GTWorx has these listed for purchase yet. I know they are listed on the website, but I don't think there is a price for them. I hope to have a better feeling for them after the weekend, bring on Canterbury...

 

I might stop by and see what they look like on your car.

 

new Invidia DP w/ separated waste gate I love hearing my turbo spool from the rear of the car. Just need a tune now!

 

I'll be out there on saturday as well, hope to see some you there.

In preparation...I changed my oil :-D

 

finally finished installing the remote starter in our RS - it's now officially the commuting car for the house
