    rolled the rear fenders on the kids 93. took about 30 minutes on the drivers and 45 on the pass side. Looks like we picked up about 3/8" clearance per side.

    Well I had my engine rebuild and trans swap running last weekend but not right. Today I finished by putting in a few replacement sensors and hoses that I needed... then drove it for its first 20 miles. That cured the idle issue and CEL. Sure hope the rebuild is good. I guess I will know soon enough.

    I drove up to my cabin today, because some stupid ****ing meth heads decided it would be cool to break into our cabins, trash everything, steal stuff.... break into my grandparents cabin and destory the inside. So i got a good 8 hours of driving in today, had to use my PTO and sat outside in the cold alot:mad:

    ARGH!


    Thanks for the congrats on the car. Chris and Ted did a great job. Here Ted i hope these pics are better. Notice my new MNSOC logo :biggrin:

    <=== has just bought brake fluid, rotors, and is researching pad upgrade wishing Performance Friction and Pagid made pads in non-STI sizes. ...maybe a step or two up to Carbotech XP8 or XP10.

    My brakes are hardly worn after 3 years, but it's time for a flush and upgrade and to fix the front left caliper slider pin that's been stuck for a year and half. :p It's starting to finally affect evenness of initial braking. Carbotechs wear sooooo slooooow.

    Engine swapped. New clutch/flywheel, turbo, up pipe, down pipe, external wastegate, fuel injectors, oil pickup. EBCS.

    The oil cooler still needs to be swapped, EBCS lines connected, down pipe needs to be connected to the mid pipe, fuel pump and short shifter needs to be installed and then the thing should be pretty much ready to go.

    Refinanced the RS from 5-years at 10.95% to 4-years at 5.75%

    It didn't save me any money monthly, but it is saving me over $2000 in interest! :)

    Added a light bar with Rallye 4000ff driving lamps. Huge thanks to J.Rex for helping me with the wiring and mounting. Ran wire and left room to add two more lights at a later date.

    Trying to figure out why my car won't start after a large amount of changes. (new used engine, turbo, injectors. uppipe, down pipe, external wastegate, EBCS). Will not start. Fires a bit. Acts rich. Unplug the fuel pump fuse and it will start and run briefly.

    I think the larger injectors are causing the car to be too rich. Hooked up my Tactrix cable and got ECUflash and RomRaider going for the first time. Copied my map, uploaded a map with scaling for the larger injectors in the car. Didn't work. Built some more maps this evening with different injector latencies and smaller cranking pulse widths. Hopefully these will do the trick.

    Swapped out the winter wheels for some (on loan) 08 WRX wheels & all-seasons. Blew a Nokian RSi last week and this will get me back to the summers in a few months, where I can hopefully find a deal in the offseason on some snows.

    I like the look, kinda classy!

    I watched both of my roommates struggle to try and park their cars on the driveway, but neither one could make it up through the snow. After pulling one out that got stuck I slowly drove up the driveway with zero effort and a big awd grin on my face :)

    I changed the rear brakes on my LGT, and while I was in there I found a broken rear sway bar link. Luckily I had a spare lying around and was able to replace it.
