isnt vermont the unofficial subaru capital of the world?

how long ago were the coil-overs installed?

heres the link to some of the pics i took: http://s22.photobucket.com/albums/b329/nkx/ECSS%2008%20at%20Carlisle/

got to see some familiar faces, and some new ones too! i hope i get to see all of you guys next year! ill try to throw some pics up... and where the hell was i for that group pic?!?

tim, give me a buzz saturday morning and ill meet you in mt holly again. matt, with this stupid rain, you might not need to bring the bucket. just bring the soap and the sponge! ill see you guys tomorrow morning! er, this morning!

holy crap! i wanted to get there early, but i dont know if im going to be there 8 am early!

if all else fails, clean it at the show!

well i just finished detailing the inside of the wrx, now i need to detail the outside! and boy does it need it...

The meet is Sunday, April 20, at 2:00pm at Red Robin in Carlisle, PA. I made up some cards to slip under the wiper blade of a prospective Subaru nerd's car. They're in a word document, 10 to a page, so pm/email me if you want me to send you the file. I should have some stickers by then too. Post if you plan on coming to the meet or if you want a set of stickers. Thanks again to RALLYT-WRX for designing the original logo!

i registered the wrx. not sure if im bringing the coupe out or not yet.

i havent registered yet because i dont know if im going to bring the wrx and the coupe, or just the wrx...

i finally got that linkage joint replaced. what a PITA. definately worth it though. got the return spring that was missing too. i had to get a new set of punches, but more tools never hurt anybody. shifts like a brand new car!

very nice! now when is the lift kit coming?

filling in the voids in the stock bushings with the stuff used to seal windshields (iirc) is popular for applications where no upgrades are available. i believe theres an article in sport compact car about this from a while ago...

stay away from those LED bulb things. they dont provide enough directional light to work effectively. they basically only light up the area directly in front of it, instead of lighting up the entire housing. bad if you want people to actually notice if your brake lights/turn signals are on.

i see what you did there!

the pins are meant to eliminate play in the linkage, but the rest of the linkage isnt, ironic! i think i saw those pics when i was digging around nasioc. your custom punches make more sense now that ive been digging around under the car, but i dont have the means of making something like that, plus i dont have that much clearance under the car to be able to hammer it with a punch of that length. i thought about putting a punch in the hole in the linkage, and then trying to get a jack under it to press it out instead of using my 3lb sledge...

oh you KNOW i will be there. with a new (to me) toy too! for you guys who arent familiar with the area, get in touch with me. i work in carlisle and live 10 mins away.

old thread bumpage! has anyone decided that replacing the roll pins would be a giant PITA, and just put a normal bolt through that hole? i had a hard enough time getting the center roll pin out, and the outer one is being super stubborn. methinks ill have to go buy some new sturdier punches.

Heres a sticker you can put on your windshield to let the half-wits know that they need a flatbed to tow a subaru. http://www.fastwrx.com/awdtowdecal.html
