Remind me when I'm down there in a week or so to show you a little "Racecah" (NASCAR) trick I have for keeping clamps/hoses from ever doing that. Clamps, all types loosen over time from heat and tension cycling, there's a cool trick we were taught years ago that prevents that.

Thanks, it tore the driver side inner plastics, ripped off the wire for the foglight and put a dent with some scratches in my drivers side fender as well as some on the door. Most of it buffed out thankfully

Sold my car to RodriguezGD. Really sad to see her go, but at least I know it's to a good home.

^ Bummer...

Oil change, tire rotation, made a mess because my drain pan is too shallow and couldn't handle the high volume of oil coming out... DOH.

Rewired my back up alarm switch to a different location.

Changed the switch to a three way
-On (Constant 12V)
-Off
-On (Reverse light activated)

Sanded the ground for my amps more. I'm drawing too much power and the sub still shuts off, new battery time...

Submitted more pictures to county to come patch this **** up, our camry and prius are only about 4" less of three wheel motion than the wrx.....

It's kinda cool but its kinda not.
My neighbor was like how do you get out of there?

Haruhi says "Hi"


I could probably fit 255s but probably not with the 3MM spacers I need to clear the coils
