mars_volta Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 (edited) Hey all. Been away for a bit. 212k on the LGT and still going but needs some help. Only making 8-9 psi real late. All vacuum lines were shot. Hard, broken and loose. New lines from Subaru. Including that lovely PCV valve and its clic clamps. Wastegate flapper stuck. Intercooler was leaking. Fixed. Exhaust falling apart. Y pipe hanger gone and muffler flanges leaking. At the shop now. Maybe patch it up. Vent actuator stuck on vent only. Got a new one. Just need to do it. Lots of clunking and bad tire wear. Replaced from arms and ball joints bushings. $ Otherwise the car is still nice to drive and looks good. My GtBoost digital gauge is still awesome!

StkmltS Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Putting that much money into a nearly 15 year old vehicle sounds crazy, but beautiful cars are worth keeping on the road My DiySB rebuild Got Misfires? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
