What did you do to your subaru today?

Pulled my headliner and pillars to hopefully have fixed my sunroof leak, also cleaned the headliner while I had it out. going to be plastidipping my wheels in a couple weeks but i'm debating leaving the center caps unpainted. anyone have any opinions? Rims are stock lgt snowflakes btw

 

tomorrow ill be putting in a new serpentine belt for the alternator and power steering :/ went out on me today

 

Had Fobia cut up my Q300 mid-pipe to fix a tragic design flaw. It no longer has a flex pipe that hangs down like this.....

 

How long did it take him? How much clearance to the driveshaft? Pics?

 

looks like a 5th wheel

 

It was pretty quick. Someone showed up to drop off some parts, so we BS'd a bit. As you know, his work is very high quality. He did a great job and really made sure everything fit nicely.

I have tons of clearance to the drive shaft. There is no way it will hit.

 

picked up some summer tires

 

Installed turbo xs tbe, Cobb heatshield, and kartboy shifter bushings. Had a snapped bolt that got fixed today. Flashed to stage 2 map. Had to use the severe lwg version as I was over boosting about the same percentage as the non lwg stage 1 map, which I expected. The tbe does have a high flow cat, just the nature of my car I guess.

 

Got these today..

 

Picked up my new DD pads. I hope to take off the HP+ pads tomorrow and swap to summers. The HP+ pads will be my only track setup. Running StopTech for my DD's

 

Went full Honda thank to chu and xluben

 

Cool.

Looks sick.

 

Getting new rubber on '04 sti wheels another member sold me. One rim is bent... I know it's up to me to check them over but disclosing that when I asked would have been appreciated. Not "they are straight and perfect...."

I will now be shopping for one wheel now.

 

Installed my scoop backing plate and modified it to clear the strut bar.

 

Filled it up for the first time. Thanks NF.

 

Oh god, he's drunk....

 

Should have filled up on 252. Cheapest E85 around, but it seems to be on the way back up.

 

I was just texting him about that. It was $2.36 last night, but I had my CUB discount to apply.

 

Yeah, it dropped over the last month or two all the way down to around $2.17 last week, but since then it appears to be climbing back up pretty steadily.

 

2.35 yesterday iirc

 

Summer floor mats back in. +10 hp

 

I drove the Saabaru to Iowa yesterday and back today...29 mpg FTW!

And I treated it to some new badges when I got home - finally warm enough to install:

 

nice! they look good.

what is it with saabs badges? They never hold up. For years it was a problem. I had the same thing with an old spg and I've seen so many since that just went to crap. I'm usually surprised when i see one with good badges....

 

picked up a vf22 880cc injectors a ebcs and a fuel pump dropping car off at NF performance on the 3rd hoping to get a little more power

 

Boring...changed oil and took the snows off.

 

Deciding if I should sell my outback scoopless hood to pay for the paint on the wrx hood

 

Should sell. Ppl that go FMIC like to go scoopless.

 

Fought with the last bolt on my shift linkage.

 

Decided to temporarily "slam" my LGT tonight.. didn't quite like how it looked, so I told my heavyset friends to get out. I should have taken a pic, it was comical.

 

Lmao! THAT is funny stuff right there.

 

Started at 11 ish up till 2 am. Sanded a trunk down, took the wrx wing off and plugged the holes with some jb weld and bondo.. Almost ready to paint it

 

Had 7 ppl in my GC once, 5 adults in the back, two up front. All about 200 lbs besides myself. Luckily it was only for a couple miles. I could barely stop lol

 

Is that an '08 LGT? Looks nice!

 

Plastidipped my summer rims (black), and while I was doing that, had a neighbor swing by asking about the "big scoop" on the front. After he asked what it was for, I offered him a ride.

Debating plastidipping emblems tomorrow, but we'll see... Also will be putting on the newly dipped wheels tomorrow. I think that the all clear has been sounded...

 

Spent 8 hours doing a full detail, inside and out, started at 7am and didn't finish until 3

 

Within the last week, mounted summer wheels and new tires, installed coilovers and had it aligned.

Before alignment.

 

today I installed an 8" sub in my wife's wrx, and on top of the sub, I also painted my wife's summer wheels. She's pretty excited to have people stop thinking she's driving her man's car

 

Washed it.... and found both my fog lights cracked and fogged up.


Edit: Order new headlights and found them $50 cheaper then last time.

 

washed, waxed, and vacuumed the car. Then checked the news in time to see its supposed to rain the next few days. Man do I wish I had a garage!
