Just wasn't sure how to compress the pistons. I think these were the easiest yet. Still need to turn the rotors or, throw them away.

Got some pics, tho we were cleaning in the garage and they are kind of bad. No before pics of the interior, which is too bad. It was fanky. I had no idea it was this shade of grey inside.

Haha.. Yeah. By accident.

Forgot to mention.. We were excited about getting this car, but still waiting to hear back from [dealership] about the OBS and there was a guy looking at the car before us who made clear that he wanted to see it first so we thought it would be gone. We got the call saying the guy didn't want it, so we came down ASAP. I asked why he didn't want it and she said because of the dent in the fender, and that he didn't believe her that it was AWD (the emblem was gone)... I peeked under the car, noted the diffy and half shafts and said "hmmm - I believe you." Thank you sir whoever you are, this car rocks!

Oh yeah.. There are a few things wrong with it - like the dent on the fender, and the driver's seat is torn as well but the thing that bothers me the most is that the rear badges (SUBARU and Impreza) are in the wrong place - at the top of the trunk instead of the middle. I like the dent better than this because.. I don't mind it when people do stupid stuff by accident..

Haha.. oops. That's uhh, half. Meant to show the 'dishes' which is a sink full of whatever I could unscrew from the inside of my Impreza. Sometimes I don't even notice those bottles anymore. That's probably the first or second sign of problems.

Roomie is into bartending. Go figure.
