What did you do to your subaru today?

i took my coupe to vanndelor to get a tranny swap, cant wait to get it back

 

Discovered just how much power the A/C takes away when it's running. Yuk. Considering underdrive pulleys...

 

Regreased and rebooted one rear axel and got the other removed. 215k miles makes working on the Tleg a pain in the but sometimes.

 

Replaced my starter in like 30 mins! woot woot for a flawless install

 

I love the placement of the starter on Subarus.

 

Put DIY mud flaps on my wife's car. Now it's ready to rallyx :biggrin:

 

Well I drove the tribeca to meet shibbzy with a pirate hat. Yes I even wore it for a little bit.

 

Took a drive for yet more tuning of the boost controller. Sure would be easier with a codriver. Drive, read boost map, adjust, watch out for police, drive, map, adjust, watch, repeat....

Stopped to watch a flock of wild turkeys in a farm field while I was out (kind of like rally cross, a field full of a bunch of turkeys ). Ah rural living...

 

for sure! I did some reading before hand and a lotta people were complaining about the 17mm on the underside of the starter. I didn't have much of a problem getting at that even with my 6'' wrench lol. Anyways, woot woot for not having to drive my moped around all the time anymore haha!

 

Gave it 200 more hp! lol! stickers

 

got me a 95-96 intake and put it on last night, woo hoo for no more big black box!

replaced my drivers side cv shaft yesterday too. that control arm was a bitch and a half

 

Got her stage 1 tuned by Bullwinkle last night! Wow, what a difference! I can do a good pull from 5th now! Nate was saying my engine was liking the boost. Will be starting a thread with the maps once I get them.

 

Awesome. Time to change your signature then! :laugh:

 

Aha! This is true! Changing now..

 

Verrah Noice. I remember when I was Stage 1... oh so many 6 months ago. :biggrin:

You have the 2.5L then, don't you?

 

Bulwinkle tune

Yes, another happy customer. Thanks Nate.

 

made a mid-pipe to fit a eg20g stock downpipe to a SPT sti axleback on a 97 wagon.

 

You are correct, sir.

 

didn't do anything to my own subarus but drive the XT6 a bunch.


But, we put some t-leg brakes on my dad's '94. thanks Boomer!

and then helped work on Martin's car for a bit, more tomorrow!

 

Swiped a curb the other day when I was pulling out of the bank. Will be getting it back tomorrow with it fixed. Wasn't to happy since it pushed in the body and destroyed the rocker panel. At least it's not the rear quarter. Will be changing oil and driving to CO then MO for a bit...

 

Gave the Impreza a car wash and clean the gold rims.

 

Bought two overpriced air filters from the stealership three days ago. Still have not changed it yet.

Also bought two crush washers.

 

Signed up for the rally on Sunday. Now I definitely need to hire somebody to kick the drunks outta my house Sunday morning after I leave.

 

well.. I've been thinking of MORE POWER!!!! gosh after seeking all them guys on dinoflash.. it gives me the feen for more power....

any ideas? or suggestions?

 

I put in some 10,000k HID headlights today!!

 

why 10k?

 

Finally finished the exhaust completely!! I found a tip I like, and welded it on. Its so much quieter inside the car, its kinda saddening. 4" resonated rolled-edge double wall tip. DE-frickin-LUXE.

Thank you MTKA guys! <3

 

Oh noes! Bummer.

Drove the wagon to an auction after work and kicked myself for not buying a '78 Datsun B210 gx that ran, moved under own power, had a good body and had one bidder, selling for $50!

 

I met with another LGT owner who I may swap catbacks with. My perrin is just too damn loud for me. His megan has the same 3" plumbing mid pipe and 2.5" after the Y pipe. And so much quieter.

 

Got it tuned by bullwinkle:banana:

 

Ricer.

 

speaking of that







the primer is really ****ty on these things. paint forthcoming


i need to pick up some more rivets and loctite to finish it up. PIAA housings with DDM 4.5K HIDs

 

Nice Carl! Now don't go running it into a tree with all that hardware hanging off the front.

 

should be nice when its all finished. looks good so far

 

i like the look of the blue headlights...didnt know thats ricer?

 

Holy mother of rally! :eek3::eek3::eek3:

 

looks awesome carl!! nice work.



I played with miles of electrical tape and wiring diagrams for most of today.....again. Little better this time though, I'm pretty excited about this project

 

Just wondering - whenever I see someone with really high K HIDs they usually say they got them for the "blue" and don't realize that the actual useable light output from 10k HIDs is not very good compared to something in the 4300 - 6000K range.

 

I also like the blue lights and have personally seen a loss in light on the road at night. Especially in the winter with the snow. IF Im driving on a road with street lights in the snow, I barely can see my headlights on the road. But I still have them...I agree not ricer. stickers, taking out your spare tire on your dd for weight reduction, any underglow, stock exhuast with 5" wal-mart tip, or the type-r racing seat covers-These are ricer

 

in conclusion i guess im just a ricer then.

 

I wasn't really being serious when I said that. Humour doesn't always carry well over the internet.

But yeah, 10,000K HiDs are pretty much cosmetic, and don't have the performance of the 4,300K ones.

 

Took her to Perfect 10 before work, then just loaded up the trunk with a bunch of Frito-Lay product for the rally on Sunday!
