I think these types of questions require a model year range for each vehicle. Usually forester=impreza but I think after a bit the legacy type parts cross into the mix for both.

I figured some of you would be very interested in this...

I found some amazing deals on discontinued Noltec castor/camber plates, on Ebay. I bought two sets, one for me, one for my brother. I bought them on Wednesday and already got them today from California.

There are two options.

The street use a pillow ball bearing with a urethane cushion. They are only $100 a set.

The clubsport, are a solidly mounted pillow ball bearings and have slightly more adjustability. They also cost more, at $150 a set.

Does anyone know any good reupholstery companies in the Pittsburgh area?

EDIT:

Or does anyone have an experience with it that could help me do it myself? I want to do the door cards and rear seat. I'm pretty comfortable with the door cards but have zero experience with redoing seat-fabric.

I should be ready to go with Grimmspeed in just a few days, so please let me know via PM or email if you guys are interested in anything (I have a few pms and emails already). Also, last night I was contacted by a guy from Manley Performance about a few things and I'm thinking of setting up an account with them. The guy called from Manley about one of my headers for his forester xt as well as wanting to know if I'd like to carry their line of products......so for my first buy I'll give excellent deals (pm me for details) on ANY part they carry.

Here's a link to their sport compact catalog and their website is listed below that.

http://www.manleyperformance.com/sc/...ortCompact.pdf

http://www.manleyperformance.com/

Again....really really good deals on any Manley product

I've been putting in quite a few hours in at work the last few months and I can hardly keep track of days let alone set aside time with IAG to do a shoot. For the lazy:

And yes that photo with the trophy is the PVGP best in show and yes that is a PBR.
Voted, your lucky I'm too lazy and didn't enter

Hopefully me! I've had an eye on the M3 for some time but I'm too picky. I'm looking at e46's though.
