Trying to get my car together, and its kicking my butt. Working on cars is best left to the professionals (aka, folks with a lift, lol).

Im man handling my header and up-pipe by myself laying on my back, nothing lines up for dick. But being a fitter I try do my best to MAKE things things fit into place, lol. Metal puts up a good fight but in the end it always loses.

Lets hope I can even make it! Still got to get my water injection ran with the SS braided line and AN fittings. Coilovers went in good though.

fitter as in pipe fitter? I just installed a header in mine, was nice having the adjustable tubes, it's a perrin, was able to move it about 1/8" and it made all the difference in the world.

Yea, pipefitter. I have the same adjustment on mine. But the header has been coated and I didn't want the coating to break off. And it fit the first time just fine with the same up-pipe. I think with all the welding I did on it it might have moved a little, stainless is pretty notorious for that.

But now I have more issues. My car is just one problem after another.

My old man was a pipefitter, he taught me how to bend stainless using all the trig take off formulas, I am an instrument tech and get to do some of that from time to time. Kinda fun watching peoples reactions when you have a few bends in a length of tubing and it fits perfectly on both ends around stuff.

It's funny you mention one problem after another. I have had my wrx since August of last year and have only been able to put 4,000 miles on it. My car is constantly on jack stands...longest was when I swapped in my 6 speed. Finally starting to run good though. Good luck with your car!
