Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
I suppose this thread can be about bad things you do, too.
Somehow lost my AC belt heading out to the Crystal Mountain area. Later found my AC tensioner piece loose and blocking one of my radiator fans, overheating, woo, and my alternator belt is nearly toast. Awesome.
Thankfully I had extra coolant, refilled and burped the system, removed the debris and hoped like mad I could limp back to civilization on my severely degraded alternator belt.
Also, AAA does not pick you up on forest service roads. Not that it occurred, but its something some of us should be aware of.

Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
What all is wrong with that wagon? It would be cool to just fix up, as an extremely rare '94 ABM wagon in decent exterior condition it looks well worth saving.

Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
has a bunch of rot.... already have a 93 NA and a 94 GT... was gonna turn the NA into an SS instead of having 2 wagons and don't really wanna do a AT to 5MT swap, the NA is already a 5MT and needs a tranny and an engine teardown anyways so this is my donor but i absolutely love the color

Worked on doing the starter bolt mod for the 6spd and upgraded the bushings for the trans subframe. Got a lot more info in my build thread.

Changed the air filter, did the Power Mode/Manual switch mod.
Also, picked up a tree the right way.

Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
Note to self: I do not own a snowplow.
Managed to catch a section of my lighting wiring on the exhaust manifold below the radiator.. Rewired section and half a dozen blown fuses later we're back in business. Replaced my alternator belt.. Probably way over due for an alignment so that's next.

Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
Picked up an '86 GL10 Turbo Sedan! Not as cool as Someperson's TW but it was cheaper. $250 and I drove it home. Not sure if I'm going to use it for rallyx or just restore it and use it as a DD.

Re: What did you do to your Subie today?
Not much to look at now but I'll take some pics when I get home. Right now I'm focused on my next project. Replacing the motor mounts in the battle wagon. I had the gel filled mounts but they didn't hold up to the torque so I'm going back to the stock ones.

Formula One car. I heard that it was under powered relative to the competition, and also unreliable. A quick look around the internet via google also brought up rumors that it was at one point potentially supposed to go in Koenigsegg cars. The owner of the company apparently drives (drove?) a legacy.

Installed some led strips in the trunk so now I can actually see in the multi box when I open it after dark.
