What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today? - Page 27

Thanks Fun173. It'll bet there as long as there aint some major disaster between now and then

It's dark now and the lights seem to be plenty bright still (I just did the 9005 low beam mod). I think I'll go a tad darker tomorrow.

A guy left our Lowe's store with a grill ( $400.00 SS ) in the back of his truck. came back in 1/2 an hour with a crumpled up thing and said it fell off his truck on the high way and hit the car behind him . My sister in law hit a pick axe in the middle of the road on the way to Cape Cod with my SVX.

I started tearing the engine down for a cleaning. Alternator post is melted to hell :/

Going to start on my valve covers in a day or so, since It wont be on the road for another month an a half.

Yeah I wish. Don't have the $$ for that right now. I did come across this though. Anyone tried these?

All of my external lights (headlights excluded) have been replaced with LED bulbs.

oh believe me I know what you mean, I am very very happy with the led's, and I paid a bit extra for the side marker led's as well but I did that when I had my tax refund, wont have that kind of extra cash again for a long while.

I know where you live. don't be surprised if you come out to find stock ones in their place.

They aren't, but they are true color and visible in daylight. It is starting to get dark at night in the north country so I may be able to get some pics tonight, or soon.

Yes, but those belong to someone who came to
My rescue.

Today I replaced the driver rear caliper, rotor, and pads. Reman'd caliper from advance auto. 75 bucks.

Caliper locked up the other day and ate the pads and rotors. and turned my wheel black with brake dust/crap.

all fixed now and continuing with face meets windshield shenanigans.
