Somewhere easy, preferably. I still don't know my way around too well yet. I'm good with directions though.

BAC5.2, that would be really cool if you had the Legacy.

I've put about 5k miles on my car in the last 3 months! This from a guy that only put 25k on the car over a 7 year period.

This commute is really making me consider a commuter car but I can't afford the expense of another vehicle right now.

Man...I can't keep up. You guys each posted twice while I was writing my post and watching the news. =) Rockville would work for me too. My friend knows his way around that area well, so if it's a well known spot I'm sure he could direct me.

BAC5.2 · Post by **BAC5.2** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:55 am

Where do you work? That'd be the easiest way to figure out a place.

BAC5.2 · Post by **BAC5.2** » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:57 am

Rockville is good for me too.

5k in 3 months? Sounds about similar to what I did in high school. In 2 years of driving, I have put just over 60k on 2 cars (40 on the Subaru and 20 on my old truck).

I was working as a CATV tech the past 7 years and probably averaged about 35k a year driving between my 2 systems in an E-350 van w/a 32' boom. I had a company vehicle too, an F-150, so that's why I put hardely any mileage on the Suby. She was purely for fun.

Oh geez, back when I was commuting from College Park to Tysons Corner, to Baltimore everyday I put about 50,000 miles on my car in a year!

legacy92ej22t · Post by **legacy92ej22t** » Sun Mar 14, 2004 3:39 am

Damn, 50k in one year! That's crazy.

Hey guys, it looks like vrg3 is going to be coming home next week! So what do you think about waiting and meeting not this Wed. but the next? Then all four of us could get together.

That'd also give you more time to get your Legacy going BAC5.2.

I can't even register the 94 until I sell the 95 and pay the 94 off. If the 95 isn't sold, I can hardly even drive the 94 (through the neighborhood is the only place I can drive it).

I know you want to buy a commuter car Matt

. I'm seriously going crazy not being able to drive the 94

.

Hmm... too bad. Nobody's looking at it yet?

Okay, okay. I'll tell ya what. Bring the 95 when we meet and I'll race you for pink slips!

BAC5.2 · Post by **BAC5.2** » Sun Mar 14, 2004 6:08 am

No, no one is looking

To make the race fair, if I lose, you give me $3k.

Yeah, I know!! Lotsa miles . . . all for naught, really. Long story.

Yeah, that's fine. I can hold off meeting up until another week.

BAC5.2 · Post by **BAC5.2** » Sun Mar 14, 2004 9:08 am

Oh yea, the meet. I'll be back at school, but I should be good to go Wednesday night. I'll make sure to go to Chemestry on monday.

What was this thread originally about again? Lol. I hijacked my own thread

vrg3 · Post by **vrg3** » Sun Mar 14, 2004 9:12 am

Hehehe...

Feel free to meet without me this week, guys.

Hm -- could we meet in Gaithersburg, in BAC5.2's neighborhood, the week when I'm there? Then we could have all four of our turbos present. :)

BAC5.2 · Post by **BAC5.2** » Sun Mar 14, 2004 9:18 am

I'd be down, my driveway can handle 4 cars. We'd actually have 5 Legacies in the driveway, lol.

That'd really be the only legal way to get all 4 Turbo cars together.

If someone wanted to show up early, they could even help me pull out my snorkus

.

Or we could meet in Rockville somewhere and get some eats at Fudruckers or something.

I'd be down with that too.

I think I smell a photo op! I'll bring my digital camera and we can get some cool shots of all our cars together.

boostjunkie · Post by **boostjunkie** » Mon Mar 15, 2004 3:45 am

Cool! I'll be sure to bring my camera with me too!

BAC5.2 · Post by **BAC5.2** » Mon Mar 15, 2004 4:55 am

I should probably tell my parents, lol.

What is goin down? My house for a photo shoot, then chill, or go out for food?

Boostjunkie - I called you today and left a message. I was trying to figure out where you got the Seafoam? I went to Pep-toys and they didn't have it. Got the last oil filter and the last PCV valve though.

boostjunkie · Post by **boostjunkie** » Mon Mar 15, 2004 4:00 pm

Sorry, I didn't have my phone on me yesterday. I got the Sea Foam from Advance Auto. I found it at the one in Tysons, but I think the one in Rockville might have it.

vrg3 · Post by **vrg3** » Mon Mar 15, 2004 4:57 pm

If they don't have it they should be able to order it for you. Their part number is SF16.

BAC5.2 wrote:What is goin down? My house for a photo shoot, then chill, or go out for food?

As far as I'm concerned, that's cool... I guess we should do the photos and other car stuff earlier as it's less dark.

BAC5.2 · Post by **BAC5.2** » Mon Mar 15, 2004 10:12 pm

Cool. My place on Wednesday. We'll figure out a time some other time. I'm free after ~2pm (I have to drive from West Virginia back home).

I searched all over for Sea Foam. Pep-toys, Napa, no dice. I'll stop at the Autozone at my school and I'll head out to Advance Auto later tonight (rush hour + Montgomery Village Aveneue = my ass sitting in traffic).

vrg3 · Post by **vrg3** » Mon Mar 15, 2004 10:17 pm

Seafoam is plentiful at my local Advance... I can bring some to our meet, along with my cool nylon-fitting-and-hose feeding mechanism.

boostjunkie · Post by **boostjunkie** » Mon Mar 15, 2004 10:53 pm

Hey vrg3, do you think you could bring down your scan tool as well? I wanted to see what kinda readings the ecu will be showing now that the car's "functional."

vrg3 · Post by **vrg3** » Mon Mar 15, 2004 11:02 pm

Of coz. My Select Monitor's always in my car anyway. :)

BAC5.2 · Post by **BAC5.2** » Tue Mar 16, 2004 12:11 am

vrg3 - That'd be sweet. Or should I wait to do the seafoaming when I can drive the car thoroughly?

I bought a new PCV valve, but the old one ain't budging.

LOL! You've got the same problem I have. I still haven't gotten around to takin the damn thing out. I'm considering just hookin the wrench up and pounding on it with a rubber mallet. If that doesn't work, then I'll have to drive the car up to Baltimore to break it loose with my friend's air tools . . . but that's a last resort. Don't wanna strip the threads on the manifold.
