Hey yall,

The car blew up and is gone so I have a few goodies up for sale. Would prefer local pickup over shipping it, but if there are no local takers then I’ll consider shipping. Let me know if yall got any questions about anything. Thanks for looking!

• Flush Yakima Whispbars - $250
  
  You'll need to source some new rubber boots for the feet. Mine are destroyed from being dried out in the sun.

  
  

• Custom center cubby mount for Nexus 7 tablet (tablet not included) - $50
  
  In fairly good shape except for bottom left corner, bodywork slightly cracked from hot days in the car. Also didn’t really account for having to remove the tablet when I made it years ago, but can unscrew the vents and tilt it back enough to insert a tablet. May just be a good starting point to start over and remake it better than I did years ago
  

  
  

• DAMD D-shape steering wheel - $300 - SOLD
  
• Custom single DIN headunit ashtray/shifter plate - $150
  
  I had the actual head unit mounted below the stock radio unit with some brackets you'll see in the photo. You can put the HU wherever you deem fit though as there is a decent amount of length in the harness. I've included a picture of how I attached it to the stock head unit.

  
  

• Bolt-on magnaflow axlebacks - $200
  

what were the symptoms? did the engine knock?

Going to work on the freeway, cruising around 65-70mph. Check engine light came on, but I've been conditioned to not think too much of it since it's always P0420 from me relocating an O2 sensor.

Drove on about 10 more minutes after that on the freeway, with no audible/visible concerns. Then felt a brief loss of power, dashboard went up like a christmas tree, then a total loss of power and pulled over. Popped the hood to see the coolant expansion tank cap popped open along with a nice explosion of coolant, some of which had this weird almost congealed slimy texture to it (have no clue how this occurred? from overheat? or contamination?). Temp gauge was pinned at the top at this point. Car was allowed to cool down about an hour while the tow truck came. Was not able to start again to drive it onto the flatbed.

Analysis after getting home revealed the spring-loaded portion of the radiator cap did not seal at all to the inner lip of the radiator any more (also no clue how this happened?). But this seems a possibility to be linked to the recent slow loss of coolant I've been experiencing. Spark is still present. I can still hear the fuel pump prime for a second or two when keying ON. The car cranks, but doesn't show any attempt to start. Haven't had time to do any more investigation yet, but hopefully will over the weekend. Let me know what yall think

are your projectors hitting the shroud and preventing them from moving?

just something to check because i thought my adjustment screws were effed up for dayys until i realized my projectors were just physically blocked from aiming whichever way because it hit the shroud. so many headaches x.x

Its a 06-07 Sti lip.

did you trim to fit it at all? I only ask because from the second top down picture it looks like the lip was fitted without trimming so it extends out a lot. but from the third picture it doesnt look like it extends out at all o.o are the picture angles messing with me or what ??

i finally got around to taking em off lol. reopened em both and aimed both alllll the way up before resealing it. left one is aimed to the proper height now but right one will probably have to be opened up again when i have time.

are these bottom cutoffs supposed to be so far out though?

i only had a point and shoot camera with me today but hopefully you can see what im talking about

the one with a little chrome flaking off the shroud is the right headlight.

looking closely you can see the black plastic part of the projector lens is kinda stuck behind the shroud ever so slightly but i guess enough to hold it back from pointing upwards anymore x.x dunno what to do anymore
