What did you do to your subaru today?

Got tuned by Nuke!

 

Installed a JNA front lip, easy as pie. Also finally made the switch to Rotella T6 5w-40, seems to run smoother.

 

shell rotella t6 oil changes in the WRX and the legacy. also got myself a Grimmspeed EBCS and a couple prosport gauges for the wrx, but its too cold to install them outside today

 

Bought a blouch18x gt turbo, cant wait to get it installed!

 

I am not sure how difficult it would be to install. Shoot me your offer! Thanks

 

pretty easy. It'll make installing the new turbo a lot easier that's for sure. It's actually the feed line and it replaces the factory hard line with a flexible line.

 

Hey n00b, every heard of a FS thread? lulz

 

I went with a buddy and got him to buy a stock 08 WRX for 10500 the guy we bought it from was soooo dumb all that was wrong with this car was it had a minnor dent pulled alreddy and he claimmed that the clutch was jankey turned out it was just loose at the pedal so taken care of i tell u some pepole if the guy wasent a total asshole i would have told him the truth he said my car looked dumb and that he hated 05 wagons i wanted to say sir plz suck my left N** loluhhhhh good day now off to make it fast he will be a meber of MNsubaru soon this is the third person i got to buy a subaru sooooooo proud

Turning ppl to the dark side

 

lolwut?

 

what dont u get lol

 

Your lack of command of the English language.

 

i know im on my phone doing this i just noticed lol

 

Yeah, for serious. 10.5 is a killer deal. How many miles?

 

Put new tires on the wife's 07 Legacy.

 

car had 52 K on it and he had all fluids changed trans/ diff/ and it had brand new dws on it. lol great deal had to go out of state for it. The whole car is getting re painted by my buddys uncle from silver to aspen white im trying to work out a deal with him so MNsubaru can get a discount for painting. His uncle is doing his car the whole thing for 850$ . His uncle is certified and everything so he does good work he also does vinyl work so illl see what i can do.

 

PM BroCo if any thing is worked out... He deals with venders and discounts that MNSubaru is to recieve... He may want you to list it a certin way.

 

disabled DRL and seatbelt chime. at 1230 am this morning, so technically still today.

 

got these bad boys in the mail...(epics) dunno if i want to wait till spring when i can put the new wheels on or throw them on now and look good.. hmm

 

Just picked it up from RS Motors. Had them swap in an ACT HDSS/LWFW (streetlite), TSK3, group N trans mount and some Extra S. Matt took care of me with a good deal on labor, can't wait to get through the break in period! Cross member bushing should be here later this week.

 

Hows your clutch pedal after the TSK install?

 

Well, it's a whole different clutch so it's hard to say what effect the TSK had on feel. The current setup is much lighter than stock, very "springy" on the return, higher, crisper engagement point. No unusual noises that I can tell either.

 

Both right speakers have been blown for a while now so this last weekend went out and picked up some new kenwoods for the front and moved the 1 working font speaker to the back blown one. I have no idea how I went so long with them being blow. Sounds a million times better.

 

Fuel pump went in last night, so I'm finally ready to pull some 3rd gear logs and get my tune revised.

 

How easy was the install? I've been considering upgrading. Have you upgraded your injectors?

 

The DW65c is supposedly a direct drop in for the 08+. No modification to the housing is required. It should be a very straight forward install.

 

Yes, direct replacement. I took my time and the job was finished in about 45 minutes. And yes, I'm running DW 850s.

 

Ordered up some Kartboy bushings for my shifter.

 

Finished up cleaning up/re-taping engine wire harness and installing Koyo radiator. I can almost smell springtime!!!

 

rebuilt my vf37 and did some fueling adjustments on my map.

 

Lowered the Forester on 06 wrx suspension with the help of Blackozone and a co-worker

 

Selling the stock struts ect?

 

stockers are potentially sold to a close friend. she has first crack at them as her rears are blown, but if something happens i can let you know.

 

Well since my car is sleeping for winter and have no plans to monkey with it while it sits, I can finally say I've done something(a very little something) EBAY center caps....yep that's it unless you count putting boxes on top of the car as doing something.

It does feel good to be able to contribute to this thread again though.

 

Removed gfb MBC, installed Grimmspeed ebcs, and rebuilt my hks ssqv. Just need to install my downpipe and get tuned now!

 

Swapped out cross member bushings, added rear diff bushing inserts, changed rear diff fluid, brought it to Jeff The Alignment Guy, finished the break in mileage on my new clutch about an hour before it started snowing. Coincidentally, we ran out of both milk and coffee about two hours after it started snowing. Seems to happen every time it snows. It's the oddest thing...

 

Got all my parts in today! Just have to wait till I get home in the AM to start my install!!

 

Modified an eBay Volvo part to complete the most critical pieces of my upgrade...

On the way home from work yesterday I heard a funny noise coming from my car. As the drive progressed I determend that is was some thing that was related to MPH rather than RPM... so I decided to investigate:


After looking over the wheels and tires I decided to pull the wheel that I thought the noice was coming from... After looking it, the brakes and the CV boots (ect) over real good, I couldn't pin point what was going to be causing the noise... So I put the wheel back on and decided to drive if without the hub caps... so I removed all them and took her for a spin... still heard it so we went back home and as I got out I went to look over the other tires... there it was:


So then I moved her in to the garage while the other one watched:


This morning I dropped the young one off to get her wiper switch replaced and get the plug/patch put in the old one's wheel. Due to the part not being stocked for the LGTwe got this POS on loan... Which I used to to drive across town and get the tire fixed for free:


When my GF called to see how her LGT was doing I told her the bad news... the only thing she could say was, "I hope they didn't give me an Aveo like last time"... My only responce was was it's not an Aveo... Anyways to cheer her up we will be picking her up from work:
