So i got my car mostly fixed. the car dosen't pull but the steering wheel is clocked about 45 degree agile. so we figured that the rack was pushed to the side when i hit the wall. i hope it just need realigning. if not then ill have to get another rack.

wow, its been a long time sense ive posted on my build thread. i no longer live in vancouver because me and my brother got kicked out of are apprtment so no i live in Lake Oswego with family. well the cars up and down, the turbo blew a while ago due to my HKS ssqv failing on me at 20psi. and i had been out of work for some time and never had the money to fit it. about three months ago i had a job interview and got the job. we'll with living in Lake Oswego and about to start work in Vancouver i needed a car. i found out one of my friends was selling his 91 subaru legacy turbo, so i jumpped on it. i explaned my sittuation and he was cool with me paying the car off in payments. she needs some work but works just fine for going to work. Plus if she breaks down i wont have a hard time figuring out whats rong. i bought her with 178k on the clock. ill be doing a mild engine rebuild, replacing the pistion rings, head gaskets, valve cover gaskets, front seals, rear seal. and what ever needs replacing. but any way enough about that car!

THE BEAST will be receaving a NEW Garrett 60 trim turbo when ever it shows up in the mail. i bought it from a guy for $260 smackers. standard oild cooled 360 thrust jernal bearing CHRA, 60 A/R cool side and a massive .82 A/R twin scroll hot side that i wont be able to use. but ill be replacing the housing with an .63 A/R T3 housing. i wont install the turbo untill i buy another blow off valve. that way im not tempted to drive the car. this weekend will have nice weather so ill be able to snap some pic's of both cars.
cant wait to have her going again!!!

so last night i was tired off my transmission shifting funny in my DD. i decided to do some resurch and see what i could do to fix this issue. i went to the dealershits and bought a trans filter kit and fluid. got the job done and while the car was still up in the air i wanted to check for torque bind and see if all four wheels still really worked. found out that they do work but one of my front calipers on the passanger side is dragging so the wheel do not move. understandible why my gas milage is not that good even after a full tune up.

its raining out here still so pic's will be up tomorrow.
