    Was up past 1:00 AM putting in a new axle. Also replaced a bolt on some other part I noticed was missing. No more horrible CV clicking around corners now =^.^=

    I'm going to miss the moonroof :(

    Worked on the OBS a bit. Took off the hella horns, fog lights and trailer hitch. Swapped the 06 single tip axleback for an 03 dual tip axleback and put some hi-temp paint on the midpipe while it was out. Need to swap out the speakers next, then pull out the WRX seats and probably take off the MNsubaru and mnsoc stickers.

    After de-ricing the 99RS and getting it registered. I drove it to work today...with no driver's side window and passenger window stuck open. It's a good thing it didn't rain, the weather man isn't always right.

    Replaced all the lights on the front end. (besides the turn signals)

    Phillips X-Treme Power headlights, Narva Rangepower fogs, and some sort of upgrade bulbs for the marker/city lights that Daniel Stern recommended.

    Rinsed off my car today.

    Nice dampers! Come stock on the newer 08/09 but I had to undo the bolts that go to the hood due to a 50 lb damper on a 22lb hood isn't great... pushes up and flaps in the wind :( I have the tools in car at all times incase I need to prop it up though so.. that counts for something? Need to rebalance tires too.

    Installed a Kartboy short shifter and bushings into the GF's 04 WRX wagon :) MUCH better than stock.

    Also greased up the rear sway bushings and PSRS on the 02 WRX wagon. Ahhh... no more clunk in the trunk!

    Started it for the first time in about 2 weeks... with a jump box.. realized the battery has had it after driving for 30 min and it still won't turn over...

    Ordered a hawker Genesis 16 to replace the 26 i have in there... no more cold weather driving means i can get away with the 14lb battery :D
    it's no braile, but it's under 100 bux.

    Spent a good chunk of time yesterday putting new struts, top mounts and brakes on my wife's wagon. Man those stock Impreza L springs are long, they were a pain to compress and put back together.

    Opened the garage, and looked at how dusty mines been getting in the last three days. Then took my little thumper Buell to work for the third day in a row.

    At least I'm keeping the miles down on her.

    I just did my brakes last week or the week before, and i have to say that i was pleasently supprised by how easy they are. Thank you brembo. I took the 4 bolts off that hold the 2 caliper halves togather on the first one, when the brake fluid started draning I realized all i had to do was pull the 2 pins ontop. 3 years 1 brake job, not bad id say. all thanks to down shifting lol

    I picked mine up today and spent the next 10 hours driving it to Utah. Desert roads and mountain passes are lots of fun.

    Next leg: Colorado into Nebraska.

    Put this in my '93 Legacy yesterday with the help of a friend who has a hoist. +1 for friends with a hoist :)

    Now I'm all paranoid about feeling funny grabby movements in the rear end, the car's rear end not mine. Hopefully just an over active imagination.
