Spec B

I can't post with my bb.

Saw a nice clean (I think) 08 OBX at 5 points in Union, NJ on saturday. Dedadged...with aftermarket wheels.

^^ Stalk much?

For me, some days KS will increment up to 30 within the first 5 minutes of driving in the low load other days it stays at 4-5 for the first 1/2 hour...I just ignore it.

Today on NJ tpk southbound near newark..2.5 i Leggy with SPT sticker and either DIY or RBS grill. Can't remember the color..but it was dark, either blue or grey.

+1...it is funny, I still avoid the spots where the potholes once were! I have to get use to the smoothness..

Thanks! I am sometimes in the area, I rarely see LGTs or OBXTs.

Spotted today in edgewater/north bergen...sweet red outback..lowered exaust (I think)..we were both pulling in to palisades hospital. Looks good man!

^ Chuck Norris never fails.

Silver LGT wagon last night on parkway N..near rt 22. I think you had a ski rack?

Spotted a diamond grey 2008-2009 LGT on kennedy blvd in west new york. Spoke to owner for a a few seconds, car looks good!

I was headed northbound (towards 78) this morning by Union..

^ Interesting..front LSD ftw.

Pretty sad I think. First time anything like that has happened to me in any car (fwd, rwd or awd).

anyone?

Bumping this up so I did not have to start a new thread..and sorry for the long post. Today I was parked on an up-hill, ground was completely dry. Passenger front tire is on the edge of the curb almost on the pavement and rear passenger tire are on the sidewalk (very low curb), driver side tires are on the pavement. I turn the steering wheel almost full lock left to pull out of the parking spot and i ease into first gear. The passenger side front wheel spins and I go no where, actually I rolled backwards with a spinning front passenger side tire. Okay...so I try again, same result. I get out expecting to find oil or some other slick stuff on the ground or on the tire...there was nothing. Dry ground dry tire.. I am starting to panic now. So I decide to try to straighten out the wheel (instead of almost full lock) and same result. I let the car roll back straightened out the wheels and tried again and all was normal again. After that episode I tried launching the car semi-hard to see if I spin that front right wheel and not the others. To my surprise car grabbed and took off in full awd fashion. What the hell happened?! Is this the open front diff at play?

It goes by way too quickly...if I log it and get different results I will let you know. But 16psi sounds about right.

I do not have 1st gear logs...but i think I am hitting about that, 16-17psi in 1st. I hit 18.5 in 2nd at around 3300 rpm and 18.5 in 3rd at around 2800-2900

^^ no brembos...yet Stockers all the way around..just new pads, lines and fluid.

I just added SS lines and Hawk HPS and fresh fluid. The difference over stock well worth it IMO... I had 25K on the stock pads (they still had about 50% meat on them) and for the most part they worked ok. I was never happy with the feel but the they stopped fairly well. I only have about 30 miles on the new brakes, but I immediately noticed them to be firmer, with much better feel and a better initial grab. When I jump on the brakes hard the wheels lock up (and ABS kicks in) a lot quicker than with the stock brakes. Maybe I am noticing this because I rarely jumped on the brakes hard with the stock pads? But I think the additional stopping power is pretty apparent....even with this very modest upgrade. Since I only have a few miles on the setup I can't comment too much on dust and noise, but so far they have been as quiet as stock.

Spotted a parked nice silver debadge LGT, lowered, with body colored front lip in Union NJ (near Salem Rd)..pretty sure it was hassa's ride.

Spotted a 08 Spec B (I think) pulling into the rest stop near the union tolls heading north this AM at around 7:30

I saw that guy too...I was in a white ferrari.

^^ Looking good too man. Your mufflers were nice and shiny!

Black 05-06 LGT on the NJ parkway north this afternoon..somewhere between AC and Edison. Young Asian dude driving.. I was in my wifes Forester.
