What did you do to your subaru today?

haha i know but still hahah

 

Got my Susie B inspected at the local Subaru dealership, picked up a new air filter, and ordered a set of Kumho ASX's for her from TireRack.

Me love her long time :biggrin:

 

Sorta sanded my headlights. Started off at 1200, prolly should have done 1000 or 800 to start off at. They are still pitted beyond belief How ever they are no longer hazy and lookin much better with some PlastX repair.

 

I had good luck with a buffing wheel and polishing glaze when I did mine. I was surprised how good they turned out.

Well yesterday I rolled my rear frenders and today I pulled them and lowerd the back. I'm going to try and get off my ass here in a bit and do the fronts and finsh lowering her.

 

Well I did get around to finshing up working on the car and it looks sicker then all get out but I'm not sure how long I'm going to be able to drive it like this cuz of the way the f n roads are. But anyways heres some pics. She needs a wash too...



I can't see the pic's when I'm taking them cuz the my screen is broke on my camera and I'm to lazy to go take another side shot so this is the only one I got. Sorrry.

 

New wipers! w00t!

 

Got my Genome exhaust put on this weekend

 

Drove it to Microcenter and Chipotle. Now about to drive it to work.

 

got my spark plugs changed and new trans fluid

 

Washed it and thought about cleaning the interior ...

 

Washed waxed and vac. Man that sucker was dusty.

 

Microcenter FTW! Used mine as a grocery getter (literally) and drove it in and out of the garage to get to the bike, since it was yet another beautiful day to ride. At least the miles are being kept down on the car this way.

 

washed and waxed, new cabin air filter in cub parking lot waiting for Rx fill.. just couldnt wait to get home lol , 55k miles on original, looked like a bird nest...

 

Drove it to Colorado to move all my stuff into storage for the summer.

 

Gave it a conservative tune and enjoyed the drive home from work. So far im easily doubling the power and on the last 2 tanks of gas i averaged a 6mpg increase.

 

I started taking things apart today...

One motor is completely apart the other is about 1/2 done ;-)

 

washed the Forester for hopefully the last time!

 

Put extra-s in the tranny, Recently fixed my "WRX" LED fog lights.

 

Ah ha! You're the guy with the LED wrx fogs. I met you at the last rallycross. Do you have a night shot of them?

 

I washed it then had to park it back under the sap spewing tree that covers my whole driveway.

 

I washed mine yesterday and finished waxing it today, all in all about an 8-10 hour process. Shiny, but no pics, sun was going down by the time I finished up. I'm addressing the very neglected wheels tomorrow, polished lip not so polished. :laugh: It's been years since I've done anything more then just hose them down.

 

Yay or nay ??? I can take it right off ...

 

NAY

to large and angeled funny

 

^ I was gonna run it down the c pillar ...

 

Sorry, but this was the first thing through my mind when I saw it:

lol, nothing personal, and yes I suck hard at photoshopping

 

^ Sweet thanks ... kinda of a thing I made for a friend ...

 

I put on about 200 miles today. I picked up a brain box too!

 

If you don't live in MN anymore I'd go for it, just put it somewhere else.

 

i washed and waxed my baby after 1,000 mile trip to my job. Next week will be at the body shop to fixed the passenger pillar that got damaged when my car almost got jacked in downtown Chicago at a parking ramp!

 

i gave the wagon a quick wash today. its hard keeping black cars clean when the neighbors are always mowing their lawns.

 

Here are a couple pics, some of these LED's burned out cause I just had a resistor in series with them and they didn't like it much when I started the car. I replaced all of them now and put in a current regulator that protects them for over and reversed voltage.

To keep with the thread, i added some wires in the truck to reach my junction box I put in that has connectors for the external amp and sub. I just need to connect the wires to the connectors now.

Also installed a k&n drop in air filter.

 

that's awesome! ^^

 

thanks

 

I just ordered LEDs for the lights that light up the head lights so they'll match

 

2nded!!!

Drove mine up north and was forced to take a very curvy and fun detour to Highway 1 to get to Pillager.

Also, added a little bit of Lucas oil to the oil tank, and she ran a little sluggish? Is this normal?

 

kicked it

 

Drove it back to Minnesota... half way thru Nebraska almost ran out of gas, needle wouldnt go any further south. Had to use some 89 fuel due to for some reason at the only exit for 15-30 miles only had 87 and 89 octane. I went to the exit past (5 miles down) with no gas station so back tracked and barely made it to the pump to put in a few gallons to make it to council bluffs. Didn't knock at all since I never went above 1psi for boost. I'll make sure to fill up in Grand Island if I'm ever on fuel light again...

 

J. Rex....I agree, this is very nice.

 

I just got it aligned!
only took a month since swapping my struts.

 

:ugh: Any uneven or abnormally quick tire wear?

 

There is no worry about rocks taking out the LEDs? I've lost two foglights that way on my bugeye.

 

I stopped in at the dealership to pick up some more parts ;-)

 

actually no. A bit of very light feathering. but not bad at all.
I don't drive my car a whole lot. Reason for the alignment is because of the cruise this weekend.
