  1. picked up some Beretta GTZ wheels to use as winter wheels. 2 of the wheels i use to own. sold them to a friend when i scrapped the Z26 years ago.. mounted some nokian hakkapeliitta r2's on them..got some billet center caps on there way so that hole will be filled. wanted to do a light bar for the front but nothing out there will fit since everything is designed on an H4 based car and the underneath of the H6 based car is different.
  2. lol i thought we talked about this somewhere on here but yeah i live in north brookfield and most of my tools and car stuff along with the GA is in Leicester.
  3. put some led's in the door panels..these are blindingly bright i had to unhook the button to tell the car the door was closed. also did the hvac controls with led's was trying to put led's in the plate lights but the right side was being a bitch and it's because the lights i got are slightly oversized. may screw around with it later but the light on the left is the led i bought and the right is the silverstar bulb i bought since that's all that autozone had and i got pulled over earlier that day for the plate lights being out.
  4. it's my 3rd one 1st one i had for like 5yrs and technically still have it since it's still sitting in my garage..the 2nd one i had less than a year and that got traded in for this one. was keeping the first one to use for parts on the one that got traded in.. probably won't be doing anything to the engine since there is literally no aftermarket for it. as for the rest it will get lifted with baja springs which will gain about 1.5" in height. light wise i'm gonna switch everything over to led's..started with the hvac controls since they burnt out and the lights at the bottom of the doors. going to go after the brake lights next. interior wise i'm going to add a few gauges to it.. trying to find a solution that doesn't involve the a-pillar. only thing i have really changed so far was adding an alpine 9813. also i'm partially on the hunt for leather seats. only other thing engine wise i'm looking to change is add a cutout. probably gonna go with one of the electric ones. i like the quietness it has now but i like the loudness and how much it sounds like a porsche when there isn't a muffler involved on these things. the technical name they give it is Black Granite Pearl..honestly thought i was getting a black car and then when i went there i was like oh it's not standard black.
  5. lol didn't realize they were like that. it's not that the plastic is frosted it's got a different pattern..trust me when i put them in i was like oh now i'm gonna have to do something about the center piece. the factory center piece on my car has horizontal and vertical line where the JDM stuff i got has only horizontal lines. to better explain what i was talking about. the us versions are like the bottom half of the red part..this is the pic of the tails i bought.
  6. well the previous outback i had before this started to piss me off. a few months after i bought the thing it developed an oil leak at the oil separator plate on the back of the engine. since i don't have an engine hoist anymore and the shop down the road wanted $700 to start plus it had some rot behind the wheel well. i wasn't really looking for a new car but this one popped up and the day i went to look at it i was headed to the junkyard to grab crap for the old outback. stopped and did the whole test drive routine and a couple hours later i bought the car you will see below. picked it up a couple days later. this thing is wicked clean inside and out. the whole inside looks barely used and the underneath didn't have any rot or body rot. the pics the dealer had before i bought it the same day i picked it up. halfway home. had to stop and mow my aunts grass removed the H6 3.0 piece from the front grille the day i stopped to take pics after i put the JDM out tail lights in you can see the pearl sparkle in the paint in this one. the new addition the JDM outer tail light piece it will be getting lifted with baja springs in the near future.
  7. haven't started a thread yet on here but i put new outer tail lights on the subaru.
  8. the bus thing was ok till when they pulled the "modified" bus out and it wasn't even the same bus they drove in with. i'm glad they did away with the star in a reasonably priced car thing
  9. or they could stop throwing money at the black hole called welfare. take that money and put it towards the roads.
  10. took a picture of it while i was working on the roof at work.. it's the subaru if anyone doesn't know
  11. >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyVSKydUxKk heard this on the radio this morning.. bringing back my high school jams. >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Xi8NvSetZc
  12. mine was around the same price something like $100 but i paid the shop down the street to put it on since shit was rusty back there and i was like nope..plus i didn't want to deal with all the crap that was brittle and what not.. i honestly don't know what else they replaces relating to that i didn't really ask but i'm assuming like you it probably included some little hoses.
  13. the filler neck was rotted bad on my old legacy. they put a plastic shield on the bottom bend at the piece that faced the ground and over the years of sand getting built up there it rotted but didn't leak until i was under there one day changing the tires and decided to clean the sand out.. needless to say it got replaced the next week. wasn't getting any codes either but i'm pretty sure the sand was keeping the gas in..lol
  14. since listening to mike's tractor song i ended listing to the music of the jake brake >https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNhcQTHW8lY
  15. not sure what i just listened to.. might be some kind of tractor porn..lol
  16. tractors gonna get lonely man..good luck stay safe
  17. good show i did the same. try Grimm and for a newer show Bates motel isn't bad
  18. lol saaabaru.. subaru with funny looking badges.. i put like 250ish a week on my outback and did the same on my old legacy. never had a problem with either.
  19. i mean everything else is nice i like the color but the engine choice NOPE..

    Psych

    first burn notice now psych and now white collar is ending after it's 6th season. can't forget about the rushed last season they gave in plain sight too. i haven't been thoroughly impressed with the last season. i mean it had some good moments but.
  21. i think this was the day i was screwing around with the timer on the camera to see if i could actually take a pic of myself..lol 2 different pics
  22. i was gonna say if you can get your hands on some of this loctite natural blue degreaser it works awesome. we use it at work and it strips the grease and crap from parts in no time. http://www.amazon.com/Loctite-Natural-Biodegradable-Cleaner-Degreaser/dp/B002A0FBLG
  23. yeah that's the part that sucks.. every now and then i have to go outside when it snows and even with the safety glasses on i've caught a few snow flakes right in the eye. lol the only thing fun about a fork truck and snow is every time i stop and start going again it lays like 6' of burnout in the snow..
  24. as to the video.. shrinkage you say..lol those 4* days suck but on those days i'm usually driving a fork truck outside emptying steel hoppers. you don't wanna drive fast since the fork truck bounces around like a front end loader but you wanna get back inside because it's balls cold outside..
