Yeah I'll be getting a nice fat check from her insurance company but it ruined one of my Miro wheels and if I don't get that back I'm gonna be upset. It was supposed to be sold on Saturday and I was gonna go buy my next project the Miros were supposed to go on it.

Man that's the worst. I always get nervous about that happening when I'm trying to sell a car. I'm officially paranoid now, lol.

Damn sorry to hear that FastAdams :-(

Today was a big day, installed coilovers on my buddies (wannabesti) wrx, and fixed an exhaust leak he had for a wile.

Then started installing the wrx struts on my 99 OBS, had to switch over the rear tophats

Then decided to finally start doing the rear disk swap, its been an absolute blast fighting 188,xxx miles of rust.

In the midst of all this fun, I found that my drivers side outer cv boot is torn, that'll get done tomorrow after the Mach V meet along with buttoning up alot of crap.

When I shut the hood, it looked like this:

I want some nice headlights, but I will probably save for an EJ207 and restore the stock ones.

Putting Spec C front control arms on next weekend, now that the wheels won't poke out of the fenders.

Clay bar, buffed, and waxed. Then put my stock suspension with 1/2" spacers in the rear to even everything up. The fxt stockers fit pretty well. Mild 4x4 status but the ride is so smooth. I think I'm done with teh low.

Went to work for duty. We waxed the floors of the command. So the car sat in the sun and watched it set near the bay.

Tomorrow she gets used fully used for some autocross action, we will see some 8200 revs and enjoy the handling legally.

Not today, but yesterday I changed my intake filter:



Today, I washed the engine bays of my STI and my gf's RX300 with Scrubbing Bubbles (and a brush - this makes all the difference). It worked pretty well for the $3 I spent on the Scrubbing Bubbles and the 5 minutes it took to wash it:

I love the comments in this video. I gave the kids my phone to record some videos. They forgot the Mic can pick up them talking. This is what I did today.
