Still waiting for them to finish doing pads and fluid... getting the rotors resurfaced ate most of the day. Next time I have to do brakes... I am buying rotors, and having someone give me a hand. I can't stand knowing that I am at home, and if I go out to the driveway, my car isn't there.
Debadged the forester a couple days ago and today it got tint. My wife is driving the STi today which always scares me a little.
I just went through my annual "I'm sick of the exhaust drone, time for the stock exhaust again" swap. Which means I'm about a month away from "I'm sick of this crappy gas mileage, time for the magnaflow again" swap.
It's not for me, but rather for the wife. '06 105sx. The thing rules. Word on the street is that the bikes will get a linkage for 2010 -- the '09 990 enduro already has one.
I guess we'll wait and see. I'm thinking that my next bike will be a 200 XC after I get bumped into B class (after next season, more than likely).
i parked mine under the southdale garage so it didnt get wet. although it does love to get sidewayzzz down wet on ramps :biggrin::eek3:
I may bite the bullet this winter and get a new RMZ or KXF 450, either that or EXC 450 (for street legal reasons)
code po420...did an inspection and found i'm missing a nut to turbo and dp...replaced and cleared code...lets hope that was it...
I finished replacing my Valve Cover Gaskets, VC Bolt Gaskets, Spark Plug Gaskets, Spark Plugs, Replaced an O-Ring on my AC and recharged, and did the blinking sidemarker mod Happy days are here again!
Finally did get it back, with about 5 min to spare, on being late for work.. When I picked it up it clunked like hell under braking... went out and bedded the brakes in after work, and my clunk has disappeared. Yay for dodging bullets. As for today... went to the dealer and explained the oops we made ordering the rear swaybar (got the sti's stocker, rather than the 02/03 WRX rear bar) ... so instead of being stuck with a special order part and out money, im getting the right part and a couple bucks back. sweet! just a shame I didn't get it for the RX. oh well. Now to go pester Sears about the ratchet that gave up on me in the process...
Locked my subie this morning in the garage until I decide where I'm moving and if I'm gonna really need to sell.
put hood struts on cleaned it up. put my chimera performance stickers on put my new STi floor mats in.
I want some white ones!!! ok.. I did front pads and rear pads, then removed my exhaust and modified it to fit better... extended the tail-pipe section to sit it level with the bumper and reduce inside drone...
Just got back from Sheen's.:woot: Tires are on and mah new 8000k HID's are in and looking oh so sexay! Thanks to Joe for the lights, and thanks to Sheen for the use of the garage, tools, and extra hands with the car tonight.
Me too!!! New DBA (4000, Slotted) and Hawk HPS. I miss the old Ferodo pads though. I am still getting a little noise from the pads moving (either that or endlink/sway), but hope that goes away as break-in continues.
Thrashed it at the rallyX and gained a two inch crack in the radiator! Also...rock chips, and she loves me for it.
changed my oil, cut a notch out of the crossmember in the back so my drive shaft stops rubbing on it when I drive in reverse.
