I used some teflon material I had laying around & secured the empty airbag cover back on my steering wheel. I added a microswitch to make the horn functional as well.
I did the rear brakes.
Hopefully tomorrow, weather permitting, I'll do my pass. control arm.
In between I ran out $30 in gas, adding a few hundered miles to my tally.

I LOVE my SVX!!!!!!1one!

I replaced my leaky power steering line with a new OEM one, washed and waxed her, cleaned the interior with leather conditioner, installed tires of the same tread depth, and put in my FWD fuse to start diagnosing my binding issue.

Window regulator sleeve lock replaced, Stereo (wrx 6disc) acquired and harnesses on their way. Oh, gave the car a bath too. It's almost winter hibernation time so a wax job, oil change, and the car cover coming next. Part of keeping those miles down and not exposing the car to some of the terrible drivers in my locale.

Among other things, I replaced that stupid o-ring on the p.s. pump. I had been putting it off because it sounded messy or hard or something. Actually I am just lazy. So using my fluid sucker thing to empty the reservoir, bam 5 minutes later I was done w/o any mess. I wish someone would have told me that it was an honest sub ten minute job several months ago.

hmm...I autocrossed the **** out of mine, and drove about two tanks out of it o n the highway (Man, 4.11's, power mode, and bad 02 sensors really make for poor gas mileage at highway speeds)

Had a blast at the pumpkin carve

Spent 11 billiondy on primer, plastic, compressor, fans, lights, and sand paper.


Let the painting begin.

added the stage 1.4, replaced the time control module, pulled and prepped about 30 parts for my fellow SVXers about the country.

I swapped out my summer tires and wheels with my winter Toyo Garrit's and modded my muffler. I also fixed my power window switches on the driver's door.

I drove to VA from MA with her this weekend after getting an oil change. Here are some newer more resent pictures of her in a graveyard in Warm Springs VA. It was a beautifully chilly fall day. This weeks plans are to get here all cleaned up from the 1600 mile trip..and take her for a mini meet and cruise.
