Soooooo my clutch completely went out. Had to have it towed. The earliest idea was that my master cylinder crapped out. However, GTEASER called it - it was my pivot ball and clutch fork inside the trans that caused it. Which turned out to be great timing for the boss find to replace those pieces - https://www.verus-engineering.com/subaru-impreza-wrx-sti-drivetrain (located in our performance mod sticky too) Got overnight delivery - Gillman Subaru will take care of it. OH! They are going to clean up my headlights too just cause they love me! Yay! -

You and GTEASER should have a competition on who has the most car parts sitting uninstalled. -

This is a compilation of the major builds that have taken place over the years. I've only included the ones that are quite involved to help others hunt and become enabled. There are some that have done a lot but just don't have a "build list" (that I could find) - make one, I'll add you.

could be a hardwire for a radar detector or dashcam. Many have a phone line plug for power (beltronics and my new Uniden has one). Look in your fuse box to see if any fuses have been tapped. If so, you don't have to add it!

Awe crap. Bought a head unit. Stock just doesn't do it for me. Been a fan of Kenwood head units since the late 80s - no other reason. http://www.kenwood.com/usa/car/excelon/ddx9904s/ -

Rebuilt my ISC coilovers. AND! Got to have ebony and ivory together to get wrenched on at the same time (Zee)! Spent a good time talking shop and cars over Mexican food and a couple of Dos Equis while we waited. -

yup. I read somewhere that this is sorta par for the course after so many years the little rubber seals sorta get weak - hence why you can buy the kits. Its no real biggie outside time - guy at the dealership will rebuild it for me for no charge. Friends with benefits! -

Spent the weekend on the car - changed the oil, replaced the low beams, started on the front rotors and brakes. Did the drivers side - awesome. Got to the passenger side and while trying to compress my pistons to put the new pads in the Brembos.... oops, one piston popped out! crap. Brake fluid all over the place. Well, its in my truck and I'll take it to the dealership to have them put it back together. SO not all finished yet. -

Ha! I get that every couple of weeks. Either my AVO Jpipe's cat is finally starting to go or the sensor... either way, I called The Shop and they said they can prob kill the code via the AP. I'm going to wander down sometime so they can rebuild my coilovers so I'll have them do that at the same time. -

Well... I bought new front rotors and pads - same set up as what I'm running now - DBAs and Hawk HPS. I'm going to change those this weekend along with a good oil change. Also, time for a rebuild on the ISC coilovers. I put about 75k miles on them and finally one started leaking so figured why not just rebuild them all at the same time. $75 per coilover i don't think is so bad at all. Ordered. -

AND a failure here. They don't have any left. It was such a great price - hence why I jumped. So crap - went with a DAMD one. Blue stitching. And now I'll have a STI steering wheel on sale!
