    Stripped a bolt on my downpipe clip rendering it damn impossible to remove. For now.

    invidia downpipes has a welded nut. The bolt is bent a bit.... which is mega annoying.
    need to get a new socket tomorrow.

    Put my dump tube with a Super Trapp muffler back on the car. Night and day difference. I have horrible flutter from the EBCS and the 60-1 makes it very loud. It sounds like a vacuum cleaner now lol Love it!

    And i'm a vender now!!! :thumbup:

    Yes, with the windows up you can't really hear it much. I can hear my catback now, for the first time in a very long time (WOT).

    Starting the trans mount this week :) I'm making two, i'll give it a go.

    Cleaning day. New cabin air filter and a K&N drop in. Satisfying considering how nasty the old filters were.

    Changed out the OEM pads (from factory!!) to Stop Tech Street, they do a great job at stopping and make no noise (so far). While i had the wheels off i cleaned them, look like new :)

    Also put on my solid trans mount!

    Started getting everything a bit more prepped for my upcoming rack upgrade. Rack has been here for a few months, lines got here this weekend and the reservoir, cooler and some miscellaneous fittings will be here in the next couple days along with the other set of bushings. Hopefully I got everything sized right.

    Guess that's more of a "what I'm getting ready to do to my Subaru" thing.

    Made a new shift knob for the daily. Kinda funny how much easier it shifts due to the added leverage (taller, and heavier).

    Did an oil change today (i change my oil after each track event).

    Inspected my solid trans mount and it still looks brand new. It definitely stiffens things up quite a bit, which is very nice :)

    Had some pavers to install and an old clothesline pole in the way. It looked like the chunk of concrete was about a foot thick. Turned out to be a couple of feet thick! Lol

    Got both sways and solid end links in just before midnight. Not bad for starting at six with a trip to stouts, eating dinner, then working lackadaisically whilst consuming beer.

    It's not too bad...only two of them are daily drivers that need upkeep. The RSVX gets started every month and brought up to temp. The WRB WRX is still waiting on a motor to be installed. ;)

    Not for my car but for @Mitchum

    He has a set of STI motor mounts and wants to mount them on his older Legacy but needs more adjustment to make it work. Simple fix by slotting out the holes.

    Also made a ABS delete block for a guy in France :)

    Took the FXT over to Grimmspeed yesterday to see if the BRZ/FRS license plate relocation kit would be a better fitment for the SJ/14+ Foresters. Then did a full deep clean of the car inside and out (and as always, just let me know when we need rain, because it will for sure happen with in 24 hours of any cleaning I do of my vehicles).
    Also thought about disabling the DRLs, but I am not sold on it. I kind of like them as a safety feature (but also loved not having them on the WRX).
