What did you do to your subaru today?

it's not the nozzles, the solenoid pump for the front jets isn't working but the back ones are. I'll unplug it to check if the contacts are ok before ordering another one

 

I know you said its not the nozzles. But just for future reference. A torch tip cleaner works awesome to clean them if there clogged. U get several different sizes to push in there.

 

What year is it I think I have a spare pump laying around.

 

2005 sent you a pm also

 

I like your licence plate.

 

I like the mint green 10 speed hanging from the roof!

 

Installed Perrin CAI and wowowow jet engine turbo sounds weeeeeee! I think it added Atleast 59 hp..

 

Changed the oil. Gave it a good bath, inside and out. Including some leather treatment. And replaced some worn out plastic pieces with some sexy silicone.

 

ordered a scangauge cable so i can start using my scangauge II

 

Ordered ARP Headgasket Studs from IIR.

 

Put the engine back in it, put plates and insurance on it, washed it and took it for a drive....






Got this car a couple weeks ago. Crank bolt had backed out (again):


Looks like the crank sprocket was cut off the last time around:


And the bad side....


Jerk deer


Going to drive it for awhile to make sure the kinks are worked out, and once the fender and mirror are fixed, it will be for sale

 

Installed a Nameless axleback exhaust.

 

Plowed some snow

 

Took off a few parts. Thanks to Ben, Ryan, Nick and Mike for helping out.








Headgasket sludge.. i think i had a bad setup since day one (factory). More then a few lines looked like this



Blown gasket and rusted POS exhaust bolts. Not quite straight.

 

Not going to lie, my arms hurt. I'm also sad that other bolt didn't break, I can't claim to be strong now

 

Just turned over 4k miles, and I hit a snow bank may possibly need a new front bumper. Or just deal with the slight spider webs in the paint and tiny crack by the passenger side vent that popped out. Lol **** it, it's just a car I guess

 

Motor out

 

slid into a snowbank and gouged the paint a little on the fender and door, ffffffffff. i wish i had a cool story to go with it other than **** ice.

 

I know the roads are horrible, I slid into a sign trying to make a turn maybe going 15 miles an hour. Luckily was not driving the subaru

 

Car was stuttering and throwing a ton of codes recently - misfire, idle, MAF overload, Cleaned the MAF sensor, replaced the fuel filter, and did an oil change (Its the first time its seeing synthetic! T6 baby!) Took it out on the back road and the symptoms didnt come up like it usually does. Hopefully that solved my problems!

I also found some corrosion on my MAF sensor so I ordered a used one off NASIOC. Even if my problems are solved, maybe ill get better MPG

 

Ordered a few Items

Grimmspeed Up Pipe with Turbosmart EWG 45 - New Style
Grimmspeed Adjustable Wastegate Bracket
Grimmspeed Crank Pulley
Subaru Master Gasket Set
Grmimspeed TGV Gaskets / Up pipe gaskets
Gates racing timing belt kit with all pullies and water pump
Killer B Oil Pickup / Splash tray
AEM Oil Pressure Gauge

I ordered these Thursday night at 6pm CST from Josh at Import Image

Grimmspeed got me the crank pulley, gaskets and IWG bracket shipped Friday and to me already on Saturday! Thanks guys!

 

Lift and align.

 

Then bled the brakes

 

Washed it, changed the oil to Rotella T6 for the first time, flushed brake fluid, installed grimmspeed heat shield and next week, install the master cylinder brace and finish up the E85 tune.

I'm done with modding/upgrading, only thing left is SS lines but I'll wait until I see a deal on some locally

 

Cleaned the IACV and replaced the gasket in hopes of it solving my jumping idleing problem... NOPE!

Super annoying as it is causing my RPMs to dip and surge when accelerating out of 1st and 2nd!

EDIT: FIXED IT! muahaha feels good! Turns out it was the cruise control cable being too tight. I must have re-positioned it when I was cleaning my MAF!

EDIT: Nope... It came back in the morning. WTF

 

Replacing thermostat and flushed heater core

 

Had a P1443 evap code show up the other day. Cleared it yesterday... Showed up again. Figured it was the one of the vent/drain tubes froze up from some of the recent snow packed up underneath between the lines. Thankfully was able to get the car thawed out and it went away.

On the bright side look at what showed up at my door today, wooohoo! ....haven't technically installed them yet, I'll give an update once I do.

-Swift Sport Springs
-Motegi MR118 18x8 +45

 

changed spark plugs, fuel filter, oil change, pcv. car started to drive sluggish, thumping and hesitating on 5th gear on incline and accelerator, was about to tear the whole car apart, but a $8 MAF cleaning solved the problem. stage 2 back in business!

 

Finally finished my winter(e7o) tune, pulls were all around 330whp. Vf52 has power to red line

 

added yellow fogs, and fixed the multi switch in the fozz

 

ignored it again. no wheels, no attention. hurry the **** up tax man

 

TGV deletes.

 

lol it's a dynapack, go figure

 

last saturday my friend brian helped me install a new down pipe and a cobb SF intake. Then we took the car to NF to get tuned. Then on sunday I installed some new HID's and today I put in the illumination kit

 

How long did it take you? This is something I want to do but it's not my favorite install.

 

It probably took about 6 hours, the longest part is to remove the divider and fill the holes

 

waiting for my tax refund than getting my fuel pump, injectors and getting it tuned at Devoted too.

 

Ignored it again. Havent been into the parking garage in a week.

 

On Saturday, I changed the spark plugs. The FXT had been feeling a little hesitant at low RPMs, and gear shifts. The old plugs didn't look bad, but the car feels better with the new ones... Of course it could just be from disconnecting the battery and forcing the ECU to relearn. I'm glad they are a long-interval service item.

On Sunday I went to Sears and bought a couple socket extensions that would have made life a lot easier on Saturday.

 

Firestone champion hps saturday

 

Put in a new starter last week. Starts like a Champ now.
