What did you do to your subaru today?

:naughty:alright, as of last night...two new(and first) performance mods!:naughty:

Injen CAI




and

Borla Reps



really need a stromung axleback now...*sigh

 

looks awesome prince! you should get somebody in the club to make you a custom magnaflow setup for half the price of the stromung! Just thought. i had a magnaflow one made by toasterboy and it sounded great.

I had my bottom two wisdoms pulled in boot, they gave me motrin afterwards. Doc was a jerk and I ended up with dry sockets and an infection that lasted 2 weeks, yum.

this doc who did these top two was a full blown surgeon, and she was reaaaaally good. She threw a gel on before she pulled them which numbed everything but the roof of my mouth for the shots she gave me. I got 8, 4 in the roof of my mouth (ouch). Then she just yanked them in about 2 minutes flat, threw in some "staples" and gave me gauze and the prescriptions. I had a little bleeding for 20 minutes, took the gauze out and took my first vicadin.

 

I found out that with my new job, the daily commute is now 24 mpg rather than 19.

FTW!

 

would it sound really low and rumbly like the stromung? i actually missed one on ebay, went for 180 shipped..

 

^^^whatever you decide...you should wrap your front pipes.


I stuffed my car with crap tonight , getting ready for Nemadji 2 rally

 

wrapping them helps distribute heat properly right? i thought i read it was a bad idea in places like MN because salt gets stuck in there and makes it eat away realy fast...

 

i opened the garage door only to find the 2 subbies just sitting there... not able to move...

 

Sad day... If you guys ever need help with anything... let me know so i can say i'll come help and then never show...

Ha

As for me... I added a few more things to my winter checklist.

 

Drove to work at 7am and got pulled over for my loud exhaust ( can they do that?) Go pull over a ricer! Told the cop I had a silencer in the mail on the way and got let go with a warning.

 

oh yes sur they can do that. I got pulled over for my Apex GT Spec...yeah, it was loud as hell.

When he was questioning my exhaust he told me to rev my car while he stood behind it and "tested" it. I reved a couple times to 4K real quick. He told me to quit reving like I was in a kitty parade and wanted me to redline it. Well, needless to say I didn't rev it to redline and man was he pissed at me. Yeah, got a ticket right there.

I had it dismissed a couple weeks later though

 

Wow! LOL

 

went to sears, to pick-up my new tool chest.
(It almost didn't fit into the legacy, good thing the rear seats are out, lol)

 

I got it back from the body shop and drove it for the first time in 2 weeks. ...It was glorious...

 

Drove it through a mudpit to get to my driveway, with bald RE92's. Was a great feeling knowing that I was the only one on my block that didn't park 3 blocks away and walk. AWD FTW!

 

The work looks pretty good, except for the massive amounts of very fine swirls marks in my quarter panel and trunk. They're going over it next week with a soft sponge buff. I hope it comes out for their sake.

 

Removing swirls is all about technique and touch. I was the master back in my Abra days. Black car with runs, orange peel, swirls? ...no match for my technique

 

Like I said, I hope they are able to get it back out. I may need to look some people up if they suck though.

 

I got under my WRX wagon with wrenches & sockets for the first time and upgraded my rear sway bar!!!

I love the difference in handling. Kinda makes me want to go a lot further with suspension mods. Unfortunately, $$ are lacking.

 

I want a rear sway!

I installed my rear lock support differential bushings, perrin shifter bushings, and replaced my transmission fluid with some scotty's cocktail!

Havent drive it much yet, but the transmission is a lot smoother.

Oh, and i took a million pictures so Ill make a writeup on both of those installs later so they can be posted wherever is suitable.

 

I drove mine...

 

tranny, rear diff, and engine oil all changed... front strut tower bar on

I would like to thank the sumo wrestlers at the local subaru dealer who put my oil filter on... took two hours, uncountable trips to walmart (to find the right filter wrench cap thing), dropping the screwdriver we tried using to spear and pull it into the oil pan about three times...

Oh well, should be easier next time, now. :laugh: Car's much smoother, too.

Thanks for the help, Rexwagon!

 

Don't know if it counts as doing something to your Subaru but we bought an 09 forester for my wife this afternoon. No turbo though

 

loaded it down with stuff and used it to move down to Mankato

 

Replaced downpipe to midpipe gasket. Stripping paint of RS bumper cover.

 

I drove mine through Nemadji, parked it for 7 hours and then drove it home

 

damn, should've been there yesterday. Your car could've looked like this...:biggrin:

 

Put my front skid plate on, didn't get my rear sway on ... figures, the one wrench in the set that's missing...

Went for a nice cruise down some gravel roads, and remembered that I really, really need to get new tires.

 

Heh, it did anyways.

Nemadji singletrack is sooooooooooo ftw ftw ftw.

 

drove it a little bit. Still waiting for FSB bushings to come in...what the heck! haha

Looked up quite a few parts that will be going on soon as well.

 

i drove around uptown then drove to school....

i need an oil change

i should do a trans. flush too

 

Get the **** and I'll take care of it. luckily the 4EATs have a drain plug on the oil pan, a rare thing on auto transmissions. I can drop the fluid and replace what comes out, I forget how much it is, it says in the manual. I did this to my auto trans a couple times. it doesnt replace ALL the fluid in there but its a good 2/3 of it, well whatever isnt in the torque converter.

in exchange, you will install OSX on my Gateway :biggrin:

 

changed my insurance over to storage tonight.

Gotta leave my sooby parked for a moooooonth. noooooo :emo:

 

it got fluffy bunnied

 

I ordered RuMbLeS!!!

 

this rumbles?

 

I am a girl.

A straight girl.

Not to to be confused with a skanky girl.

 

Went to tintmasters to line up a brake jarb. (hawk hps pads + super blue fluid)

Picked up some wrenches.. going to try tackling the swaybar again, now with the right tools lol!

Still wrestling with the huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge culture clash between myself and the TM crowd, though.

 

The other day I changed my Tranny fluid and Engine oil. put some Amsoil severe gear in and Some ENEOS oil. The eneos is awesome. This was the 4th oil change with it and it never stops amazing me. It does not seem to disappear as M1 does, and I get a huge increase in gas mileage with it. The engine is also quieter and smoother running. Its definatly worth the money.

 

i sat in it.....thats it...

i misses her.... i am sick of driving the space pod!

 

call me!

 

Drove it for the first time in a week , way to much fun!:biggrin:

 

Order some Saggy Butt Spacers from Paranoid Fabrications! w00t! No more rubbing in the rear!

 

i got gas
