What did you do to your subaru today?

Used my snowboard rack for the first time yesterday.

 

No worries man! I'll buy them back for 2 bucks. lol

youre telling me you JUST got out for the first time?

 

Both of em started! Thats all that matters to me.

 

(Later this week) I will be putting snow tires on, and am open to suggestions on where to get them mounted.

 

I just hit my 75000 mile mark today on the way to work :emo:

Drove around?!

I dont believe you

 

no I used my roof rack for the first time :biggrin:

before my car was in the shop due to my CURB issues

 

moved up to duluth and drove her around in the nice cold air

 

brakes last friday, oil change last night.

 

Got my car back.

 

got her oil leak fixed.

 

installed 07 deck with AUX

 

cried when I got the repair bill

 

Installed new radiator and hoses.

Installed new oil pressure switch.

Still burning off all of the coolant and oil spilled all over =P

 

installed a new SPT CBE that I ordered last week....mmmmmm:yumyum: sounds nice! Looks good too! next GSBC and a new tune:biggrin:

 

Didn't do anything to it cuz it's still in the shop. But I did get my new winter wheels in (16x7). I also got new turbo back cuz I dont like the stuff thats on there now. I got a Perrin one-piece down pipe and SPT cat back. Cant wait to get it back and put the new parts on her!

 

Got my car tuned by Bullwinkle last night! Too bad it's so snowy I can't go out and play with my extra HP...

 

^^ What are the numbers?

 

295 WHP and I think the Torque was over 300, but don't remember the exact number. Bullwinkle is supposed to send me the plot when he gets home tonight and I'll post it up.

 

i guess its within range for a Stg 2.

 

There now its sounds more like a comment from a subi owner

 

Washed the tile dust off of it, and the paint was in better condition than I expected, lol.

 

when do you think she'll be back up and running?

 

new front lip spoiler or JDM front end

I destroyed my front lip spoiler a week ago and am looking to replace it. I found this picture, I like the look of it, what do you think. Replace the Front lip spoiler or go with this.

 

charge speed lip?...if so, u need the whole kit and lower your car to make it look good. on the otherhand i wouldn't install it in the winter for snow reasons ruining it.

 

I drove it ;-)

 

So it is on the road. Complete or is it just drivable?

 

put 40 dollars worth of gas in it

 

that is freakin' HIDEOUS :laugh:

 

Bro-bro-tronics.

 

Went to Wendy's tonight and slid into a small snowbank/concrete post. Was only going 5mph if that, wouldn't turn, ABS started it's stutter dance and didn't do a damn thing to stop the car. Didn't seem bad when it hit, but then inspected the damage and it cracked it vertically top to bottom and dented it inward. :unamused:

Later, on the way home, I was driving down Lyndale and was in the right lane, which is more like 3/4 of a lane since DOT can't seem to plow the whole damn road, and had to come over to the left lane a bit to pass the cars parked on the right. Unfortunately, some ******* in a big truck just had to get past me, and force me closer to the right. That's when I clipped another car's side view mirror with my own and shattered my housing. After I was done cursing at the jerk-off, I came back around to see if i damaged the other guy's mirror, but I ended up just rotating it out (plus it was on an old beater anyways).:rant:

Yes, I am currently consuming a large Jack'n'Coke to prevent myself from destroying someone or something from my frustration.

 

^^^yikes.

that sucks

 

some drive thru areas can really shock you how icy slippery they can be regardless of what speed you are doing. I also drifted a bit in a KFC drive thru doing less than 5 mph.

 

Aww man! Sorry to hear that Rex! You sound so calm compared to what I probably would have done

 

Expletives were shouted, and most of the anger is out of my system now. The big cost will be the bumper. I might just wait until the spring to replace them, in case some more bad luck comes my way this winter.

 

Which Wendy's? the one on lake street or the one on Franklin (assuming it was near uptown because of your location thing)

 

fixed my broken key on the crankshaft new crank pully. redid my timing. next on the list install sti springs

 

In Blaine, by Northtown. It's by my work.

 

Man that sucks. I guess fast food isn't just bad for your health its bad for your car as well.

The mirror isn't as bad as I expected, but still, sounds like an all around bad day.

 

time for some zipties!

and that sucks, i did the same thing last winter into a boulder at the end of someone elses driveway.
its sucks when your going so slowly and out of control that you can see whats going to happen more that 1 second in advance, it just makes it that much worse.

sorry to hear about the car man!

 

Rex -- leave it that way till after the ice races, if you fix it before hand I can almost garuntee you brake something up there... lol
