What did you do to your subaru today?

Check, already got it. A few of them already sanded out. I prob. could have knocked them all out if I had the paper from the beginning, I am not talking chedda!

 

OfSpunk7 Also tuned my headlights - and polished my engine bay

 

I thought I would let you talk about your headlight tuning! Your lights were so bright backing out of my driveway!

 

On the drive to work this morning I felt more than ever the need for a "new" to me car.

 

When I got back out onto McKnight, I REALLY could tell a difference! Thanks again man, they turned out great! And Nuke, always good to see ya! Sorry for the NF decal fail... I will work on that!

 

I wish I had brighter headlights...

 

$45 @ DDM tuning. I am happy to help you hook them up.
35W
5K

 

to aim them?

 

Thanks for the tuning session. Butt dyno did feel a huge increase in TQ & HP.
Felt like 80whp/120wtq before tune, more like 82whp/121wtq now!

That 2 WTQ really makes a difference.

 

If you really want a good kit that is "made for halogen projectors", I'd check out the kit from The Retrofit Source. It's $150, but it is pretty great quality. Can't remember the actual name of the components, but it should be easy to find.

I briefly ran them in my WRX before going back to halogens (long story).

 

Do they warranty the headlights? With DDM, if they wear out/break/etc they replace them. FOR LIFE!

IMHO - I think people blow up the quality of WRX projectors too much. Mine work fine, the cutoff looks great. I think there is a lot of hype behind it. However, that is just my opinion. Why drop hundreds of dollars on something that most people can't even tell the difference with.... and if they can it is so minor.... but whatever.

 

Yeah, but you're a ricer.

 

Yeah TRS warranties and stands behind all their stuff. The light output seemed pretty good with a 5000K bulb - very similar to stock HID color, although I didn't have much to compare to.

I'd be curious to see them side by side with factory HIDs - for both color and cutoff.

**Anyways, nice work on the headlight cleaning!!

 

Im selling it :-( but keeping it Subaru and getting an 05 forester

 

Installed a front strut bar on my lunch break.

 

Just blacked out my headlights.

 

Broke 100 thousand miles

 

And still haven't installed a new T-belt???

 

Ohh I did around 90k when I had to dump 2 grand into exhaust valves, water pump, and some other stuff.

 

I dont drive mine much anymore, I have a work car I'll usually drive around.. I probably put on about 9000 miles since I bought in November in 2010.

 

Josh, I think we should change your avatar to "mini-van expert". Thanks for fixing that Quest oil leak this morning!

 

Ya I take really good care of it.. what's the deal with the wax and clay I've heard about that makes the paint look brand new? Is it just like buffing it?

 

Installed a new clockspring.
I think it's time for the summer bumper to go back on.

 

got rid of that annoying seat belt squeal..

 

bought another one:

 

Nice pickup.

 

Thanks! Got it for a grand. Its in great shape too.

 

Replaced leaking injector oring. Next replace broken rear end link.

 

Installing camber/caster plates, and hopefully if time allows fender braces. Phenolic intake spacers from Grimmspeed are next.

 

well got the rear end links off the hein joints i bought to replace the ones i currently have setup are not the correct size.

 

Custom the prodrive lip on the my wagon. Don't look flush but oh well lol.

 

went to Bnuts01's shop and cracked the cam gear bolts loose... that's about it, and got the wagon up to 239k.

 

Got my car aligned by Jeff and picked up a GD Fuel Pressure Regulator.

 

Today, I bought my first Subaru. It's a 2000 legacy GT Wagon.

 

Painted Roof rails and most of the trim, also go my subie all dusty from mowing.

 

Went from stock wheels/tires to these!

 

Installed Perrin coolant overflow and rerouted vacuum lines....
