Not today, but over the last two weeks:

Got the engine back from the machine shop, Started running turbo oil plumbing, in the process of deleting useless s**t from the ej25d manifold, installed group n mounts, and three days ago I got my hands on the last OEM gaskets and o rings I needed to bolt everything back together

Should be fun once it's done. I still have to disassemble my trans again to make sure the shifter's lining up properly, but I've been too lazy to do so.

 

PS: I don't usually drink miller, but it was the cheapest they had at the distributor.

reporting from Easton, PA, i get around in a rusty 93 legacy wagon

i keep forgetting to post here! in the past 3 weeks i:

hit a sidewalk and bent the pass side control arm, replaced it together with a new balljoint 3 days later.

installed white hids.

bought black polyurethane mudflaps from a local bugeye owner.

installed ngk sparkplug wires

and im now trying to figure out where to mount my foglights.

 

cheers!

also there was a very heavy snow storm not too long after i replaced my control arm, so i went downtown to show off and fly past people in the snow. will post some pics later

well it went as low as -8 with windchills that made it go down to -22 here in eastern pennsylvania, and my battery took a dump on me, wouldnt even crank by being jumped, so went and got a duralast gold and that was it... also bought me some shifter bushings and i did the ones inside and the ones by the trans output shaft are completely shot, and i didnt get the main one. later today i'll have no more loose shifter!

i made my wagon drift in the snow countless times, it's awdsome lol, only thing now is that my ps pump stops spinning sometimes and it makes the belt squeal, think i need a new one

how do you find them for power etc? I have 16" forester rims with 215/65/16 and they seem pretty good, I lose some passing power, but dont notice much else. http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee110/bcmaxx/20131210_072921_HDR_zps0f51567f.jpg

 

well i see you have an ss, my wagon has been already slow from the start lol so i don't really feel much of a difference except for the fact that they dont make my whole car vibrate at 90mph like my stock 14inch steelies with all seasons did. pretty sure they were all bent, or at least one of them was because i had terrible outer tread wear

Very nice..

i want a set of forester 15" steelies SOO bad......

 

btw... were did you get that hatch "spoiler" at?...

 

i got it at a local yard here in pa in the beginning of the year, off another facelifted wagon that was all spraypainted gold. because mine didnt have one when i got it but it had the holes on there

 

btw these 16s arent bad, so far i havent done any damage to the tires which is good

a friend of mine got me a set of forester wheels with great tires on them as an early christmas gift

then i put them on, and i've been driving pretty rough, surprisingly they dont rub, only on my pass side rear mudflap because one of the screws went MIA. but they actually look pretty nice IMO, makes the wagon sit a little higher and it looks like a wannabe outback haha

traded the 18s for 17 inch adr sokudo 10s and emmy looks so much better, considering flares and a subtle drop

Ripped the MSD coil off!!!! What a waste of money. Only had it on for about 3 weeks and noticed a very minor loss in power and was causing a slight miss on accel. Put the stock back on and runs much better.......

 

What a coincidence, I was just thinking about asking people their reviews on the msd coil on our engines, now I'm having second thoughts. Thank you!

Went to a local junkyard expecting to find nothing and I found a green 93 wagon with tan interior exactly like mine except with no rust.. took the purge valve which got rid of my CEL

Checking in from Fort Lauderdale, usually travelling all over the damn place, new to the forum, legacies, and florida. would love to meet up people from south florida and get to know the speed shops and people to go to for parts and such...

Picked my baby up from the shop after having them install a new differential and drove it home, might I add that the mechanic that installed it told me that the car ran so good that it impressed everyone in the shop. Which means they underestimated it
