June 23, 201015 yr Author I cleaned off the old hunting stickers from the back window and replaced them with more fitting ones. These were before I trimmed the excess off. dude, you can pull the clear off. your supposed to, its just transfer film from paper to window. pull it slowly at a 45* angle. Also, I yanked Leaky McGreasymotor out of the car, tonight I am swapping intake and accessories over. Just a couple more evenings and she will be alive again
June 23, 201015 yr I upgraded my intercooler from this to this it should make a bit more power now that the charge will be cooler
June 23, 201015 yr This car used to belong to JWX it was built using help from Will and Rankins. Many parts came from a GRM Challenge car including the strut tops and from what I hear (might be wrong) engine. it also has a modified TWE down pipe, big exhaust XT6 bars, coil overs, and revalved shocks.
June 25, 201015 yr words i wish i could say about Subie. i'd be lying if the first thing i thought of was a car in regards to his statement. LOL! lately i have done: added dome light. 2" lift (and in the process replaced ball joints, thats a whole other story...) (time of pic.. just the rear was done, looked funny as hell. LOL) gotta get a post install pic of it all done yet. Made this shiftboot/gate: (cant recall if i posted it yet or not.) its just out of some acrylic i had in the basement. would like to do it out of aluminum some day. next up: gotta figure out some larger wheels/tires! and a way to pay for them. also i have lined up from ReRack in Portland a cheap used set of rain gutter towers to make a roof rack with. $40 plus shippin, cheaper than any used ************ i can find in milwaukee fo sho.
June 26, 201015 yr dude, you can pull the clear off. your supposed to, its just transfer film from paper to window. pull it slowly at a 45* angle. I realized that a couple of days ago. Never put one on before that so chalk one up for newbness.
June 26, 201015 yr I got to change my tire in the Taco Bell Parking lot, cuz my tire finally decided to drop enough pressure make that nasty "flat tire noise". Gawd, another thing added to the list of crap I have to do to Xandra. Oh well, she's less than 200 miles away from 300k. She deserves to be high maintenance. Twitch
June 28, 201015 yr hahah ouch sorry but thats funny. I changed out my 15inch sub for a different sub cuz the one in the pic started fri'n hah.
June 28, 201015 yr I replaced my old rusted out muffler for a almost new junkyard muffler on my Loyale. And I fired up my Legacy after setting for 2 months. I never knew an EJ22 was that loud with no pipes on it. Started first try. Just need to get around to fixing it and getting it on the road.
June 29, 201015 yr cleaned up the trunk a little. found Stains Edited June 29, 201015 yr by SubaruJawn
June 29, 201015 yr Author I realized that a couple of days ago. Never put one on before that so chalk one up for newbness. No prob, I was just lettin you know. In about 3-6 months in the sun, that "clear" film will turn VERY cloudy and sometimes white.
June 29, 201015 yr Flipped the fuel filter in the engine compartment. Had it on backwards. Located a loose vacuum hose that connected to the top of the carb but I haven't a clue what connected to it. I'm beginning to get irritated with the books I have that have next to nothing on the vacuum system. Even consulted the diagram on the hood and that was about as useful.
June 29, 201015 yr waxed the car today. adjusted the rear camber yesterday. the wheels are actually just about straight up and down now. i think one is actually negative camber! tried to figure out what is makin the creakin noise in the front when i turn now since i put that lift on. any ideas welcome, i thought the sway bar might have been loose or too tight but that didnt seem to do it i do have a bad boot on the outer tie rod end which i have to replace but there really isnt any play in the sucker that would lead me to think that was the problem. :/ put a cut off hollowed harley sportster muffler on the car for today. gives it a slightly lower tone and makes the pipe go about 12" farther to the rear of the car (previously only went to about halfway back from the axle. ending before the muffler hangers.)
June 30, 201015 yr Looks good, same rack I have (Surco) Are you running Forester springs or something? Looks good Blu got a top hat
July 1, 201015 yr waxed the car today. i think one is actually negative camber! Woah! Drift Machine!!!
July 1, 201015 yr Put my sirius radio in. gotta love the stock AUX input -Justin Edited July 1, 201015 yr by crazyman03 added picture
July 3, 201015 yr I detailed my Brat. When we bomb canned it the wife covered the brat lettering. I felt it was high time to redo them. So, with $2 worth of paint and contact paper I went to work.
July 3, 201015 yr Finally got my sorry self back into my Subie the other day due to blown motor (oil pump) and have replaced the brakes, the 30k mile clutch, and finally got to have some "fun" in the car :cool:. Cannot wait to take her off road and enjoy the sites of the good ol' SFV that are still accessible.
