  1. I can't wait eather. I'm sad that its not on the road now but missing parts is missing parts. Hopefully next weekend !
  2. I should not have to swap filters for a car thats 2008 with less then 40k on it. I know I'll try i'm just frustrated btw. is the 06 by chance a 3.5? I think that motor is made by honda
  3. It only needs 1 bumper resprayed and then hood/front back on tranny put back together and in and it will be on the road.
  4. when its cold its WAY worse. It did not do that 10k miles ago. I guesse I'm used to good motors like the 3.8sc and the ej2* . It sucks I;m seroius if i thought I could get out of this loan even if I got fucked hard I would . It would suck but I don't think this car could make it to 100k miles maybe 150k. On COS just the other day a guy with a 300whp ej205 blew his motor. He drove this car and enjoyed it. but it had 200K miles on it.
  5. it's the 3.4 I thought by now they would have fixed it.
  6. <RANT> I'm fucking sick of our POs SUV. We got a 2008 Equinox the fucking thing has valve tic like a SOB. I've taken it in and they tried to tell me they could not replicate it. Thats funny I hear it chatter every time I start the fucking thing. It's got a crappy ride. If I was not upside down I would trade this thing it today. </rant>
  7. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN5aECC2Dzk&feature=popular I was rockin out to this
  8. I think it would cut down on street racing allot. I know I HATE to goto NT on a friday. I in a street car get to watch the nitrous and 9 second cars make lots of passes while my lain doesn't move
  9. Could you get around that with a good Legal binding agreement ?
  10. I called up jeff today asking about fluids for the WRX. I had hopped the tranny would be going in the car today. Shop was closed but jason was at the shop doing some shit in the back. They took care of me got me my 4qts . thanks again guys.
  11. I would like to thank Jason and Jeff for taking care of me after hours on the fluids! IPS FTW again.
  12. I wish I could have stopped out. I've been working on the car or trying to find piece for the car all day long.
  13. Look this may be fucking retarded but I'm tossing it out there. I think I'm missing some logistics but I'm not sure. what would it take to create a nonprofit who's sole reason in life would be to help prevent street racing by renting out runways or even trying to get sponsors to buy a piece of land not for from columbus to race at. I've seen drag races at the air port before. Like legit ones. What does it take to own a piece of land and have a area that you could race at your own risk. Or even a club. You join or by donation your a member and get access to a "Park" that has some area where people can do like 8th miles or something. This sounds stupid so I start by flaming my self Your a idiot it would never work.
  14. Tim i missed your post me and norm and a few others have been busting our asses all day long. As you can see I had set backs . I think honestly for what it costs to do It's a awesome option. would I do it again? YES I would do things diffrent which I will touch on when I post the howto video.
  15. setbacks The bumper beam subaru sent is the wrong one. I also think I need another tranny piece. I'm calling monday. Sam's been great and I'm sure will have it to me quickly. http://www.40roll.com/wrx1/sidefront2.JPG I've got to respray a fender. Lesson DO NOT SPRAY ABOVE . For the roof fine but we had allot of repairs on this bumper and it causes texture issues when applied from above. It's coming back off the car and going to be resprayed. We do have most of the car together. I went ahead with Draco's help and did the Bug eye mod. http://www.40roll.com/wrx1/Headlight.JPG I did it a little diffrent. Instead of full on black on the edges I did like a speckle of the duplicolor stuff. Sorry or the low qaulity shots Ty will be over to take more shots. A few things to note. We've learned from the trunk lid you have to Spray the car down after painting to get the excess residue off. Trying to blend the pattern much before then is pointless. Pattern wise you can get pretty uniform. But there are a few still spots. I'm going to see if I can blend it better once I get the car power sprayed. http://www.40roll.com/wrx1/sidefront.JPG BUT Even with the texture changes the reaction from everyone local has been that it looks evil. I really like how it sparkles in the sun. This project is a diffcult one. But if your like me and want to Rally your car or your paint is shot and your worried about rusting your baby out and don't have a huge budget to fix it. This looks awesome. I think it could look good also using the roll onn product. I have not tested But I'm thinking about testing it out. It may be easier to lay down. This has been a long project and I promise how to video and final outdoor shots of the car as soon as I get it on the road.
  16. Has anyone considered polling our money to gether to get a private piece of land to race on?
  17. People should not have to DECIDE weather they should drive to the store, Pick up there kids because they work a late job or anything else just so a few people can 40 roll. Plain and simple people got hurt/killed. I would prefer to see more legit places to race. I hate driving way out to NT to make 3 passes. I would love to goto Bolton field and make dig races or even 20 rolls all night long if i wanted.
  18. I WANT TO DRIVE IT !!@#!@#!@#!@#!@#!@#!@#
  19. .... the head lights look sick I'll take some pics tommorow.
  20. PROJECT UPDATE Ok guys. Its been 1 week of work. Lots of hardwork but I'm happy with how it looks. We had to light up the garage with the head lights. Here is a peak. http://www.40roll.com/wrx1/uhhhohhh.JPG More pics soon.
