Installed an older Blitz Dual SBC electronic boost controller. Boost builds super fast but it fluctuates +/- 2-3lbs at peak boost. Gotta work on the gain setting from what i read on the google. Also hooked up the coolant lines to the IACV, had them capped off for awhile to see what would happen. No news to report back.
Also got a CE light, stupid car.....

Discovered the sunroof is leaking. Not majorly but the headliner has some mold and the front seats feel a bit damp. What a bummer. I also, while starting to remove the headliner, discovered the drivers visor light has a torn wire.

small rotor is a stock vented SS rotor.
medium rotor is a stock 06 WRX rotor.
large rotor is a racing brake 318mm rotor.
new rotors, brackets and pads go for about 750$ for the rear brake setup.
gonna sell this kit to get the correct kit for my car. so if you have an 05+ LGT and want to upgrade your rear rotors... THIS is the kit.
exhaust install, header back. need to get a resonator cause it's still far too loud. installed a new center console cause mine was in poor shape, new overhead light, replaced the drivers side seatbelt track, and found a coolant leak...

Gave her a bath Fixed a ton of rattling.. Open downpipe is loosening trim bolts and making everything rattle pretty bad. Need to buy exhaust hangers and donuts gasket to get my exhaust back on.

Broke a stud halfway off on the turbo when I was removing my leaking aftermarket DP. Ran out of time to reinstall the midpipe and muffler, so today I drove the car with just the factory DP. 2 things... Really restrictive- whole car feels way less responsive, and... HOLY CRAP this thing is loud! Alphius can attest to that.

Wait....I'm confused now.
I was driving behind him and when we came up to stops my floorboards were vibrating! I couldn't even hear my own vehicle and that's pretty crazy because I was in my truck with a loud 350.
I've driven Subarus with open downpipe before, but really only stock EJ22t cars. I think Mike's is louder than a stock EJ22t.
Got a replacement EJ22 motor out of a 95 Legacy station wagon that only had 150,000 motor. My current motor had rod knock which led to it not starting at all. Can't wait to switch out the motor tomorrow and take apart the old one to see what exactly happened. lol

Not to my subie, but tonight Patrick (randomiam) came over for a visit so i could pull his fenders off and he could do is fender braces. Done in about an hour with fender liners installed.
BOSS!
Patrick, I saw you take pics, you know what to do... Sorry to put you on blast, that really was an In and Out job like clockwork...

Nice I did that mod eons ago but I think it was before I ever got my car running so I can't say if it helped or not.

I am running my dp (4in) open exiting out of my cat. Sounds good, not as loud as my catless 3in dp.
Patrick: I love that my old baby is in your hands and with someone who wont thrash it or sell it for nothing. I really dont think you'll find one as clean as that one is. The td04, shouldnt have more then 40k miles on it either. I bought that entire kit from euroshark on here.
Cleaned my new baby up today. Getting her detailed inside and out before the weekend comes. Upcoming buys are....
1) AFR wide band gauge
2) Coilovers/sway bars
3) Rob tune
4) Short throw shifter kit
None of these are in order, but that pretty much sums up whats left to do on this beast aside from a fmic and new wheels, other then my 04 wrx wheels. Also, may trade my bugeye seats (front and back) for two front rascing seats for harnesses and a cage in the future
Went off rallying last night. Came into a tight right a bit too hot, went straight into the small trees and brush about a full car length, and got high centered. The car is just fine but two hellas got cracked, one housing broke, and my right fog light is totally destroyed. I already replaced the hellas but I don't have a spare fog light so it looks like I'll be running around with one for now. I had to call my mom so I could use her car to pull mine out. What a night that was..

im probly missing a couple things but this is how my last few days went.
long story short.
last week one of my radiator fans cut the rad. so i replaced it with a spare i had.
a week later this....
started monday morning.
from new jersey to albany ny, upper radiator hose blew.
go to 3 auto stores before getting a hose that was in stock.
replace in parking lot at night in the cold.
drive from albany to saratoga ny.
radiator cracked at exit 16 on the northway.
make it to store and add coolant.
drained radiator for the next morning.
tues:
call around looking for radiator, but are all a few days away. (NO ONE STOCKS RADIATORS FOR THESE CARS!!!!!!!)
remove radiator and fix crack with plastic weld.
(this process was done several times and went thru 100 dollars worth of coolant before i got the leak to stop)
few min later, sprung another leak. upper coolant under pressure.
removed thermostat (its dark out) test in boiling water to make sure it works. (it works)
re-install stat. another leak, drain coolant for the 100th time. fix stat again.
another leak again... more plastic weld.
weds:
top off with fluid check for leaks.
leave saratoga, with a stop in albany to check radiator. (so far so good)
get to exit 16 on the thruway and temp gauge started to move, i pulled over and added more coolant.
head to matamoros pa to avoid traffic on rt 80 in jersey and stop at autozone for more coolant.
add coolant. its leaking. i find leak at bottom of radiator in the fins. (after i saw this i just stopped trying to fix leaks)
top off again with coolant and head from matamoros pa to jersey.
made it home with no issues. put drain pan under rad so my garage doesnt fill up with coolant.
replacing with:
new radiator
new coolant temp sensor
new thermostat
new radiator cap
new upper and lower hoses
its been a rough cold dark 3 days. i cant wait to crash in my own bed tonight.
Thats pretty rough.. I might have to educate myself on how to make a NA radiator work on our cars if I'm in a similar pinch..
Danny: ha ha at having to call your mom-- I had to tow my old accord with my moms Maxima back in the day when I ripped the muffler off and broke the alternator among other things. Do you have a skidplate installed?
