All the law-breaking! MY EYES! I cannot unsee these shenanigans!

All joking aside, that's quite a few Subies. If there is ever a drive that just runs out to Hwy 1 through Forestville/Guerneville and back through Sebastopol, consider me interested (that would be within my STI's ethanol sucking fuel range).

I would recommend avoiding WORKS whenever possible. I've seen people end up screwed because of work performed by WORKS. I'm talking about people I know, not forum posts. I genuinely hope everything went well for you though!

It went great, the work they did was only to the suspension. Also hung out with their guys on their lunch break and did a couple sessions at the go kart track, which was a blast. Their office isn't very well run but otherwise I'm happy.

I'd like to do this as well since the roads on that loop are well paved for the most part.
even though we just did a big meet and drive, I'm ready to plan the next
. Hopefully we get another great turnout.

Got the fozzy back this morning much happy. Drivers side valve cover was leaking, so that was replaced under warranty. the oil consumption is still under investigation, but the important thing is that they are taking full responsibility.
On a related note, which AOS units would you guys recomend? The perrin one looks nice, but its pricey. Thoughts?

For Subaru, Crawford, hands down. Although I do use Radium for my Evo. Radium's products are all legit, very well-designed and crafted pieces.

Kevin suggested the crawford AOS as well. I'll probably go for that. Thanks for the input!

Thanks guys, I'm quite relieved to be driving it again. The 5mt 99 LGT loaner car was fun, but having nothing under the pedal gets old fast lol.

Anyone going out to ricefest tonight?
