What have you done to your SVX (or other Subaru) today? - Page 55

Today I replaced the stereo with one from a '96. Thanks to David Carter for the "How To" instructions. It's good to have a working CD player again! Also fixed my ashtray door. It closes now.

sat in my baby and cried knowing I may have to use my two grand to buy my cousins saturn instead of wheels, exhaust, power steering leak, and the wonderful wheel bearings.

booo subaru.

I have been driving my '91 Corolla more than it lately.

That reminds me.

I broke my power ant. and removed the entire unit/tube.

Nothing special in the SVX today, but I did see a truck yesterday emitting random "smoke" circles/loops from it's tailpipe, which was pretty awesome.

Smoke rings. That's what phrase I was looking for.

Drove to a friend's place in the Cape Breton Highlands and back 900km Major snow storm on the way up. Handled like a dream. Gotta love AWD and studded snow tires.
Went for a great hike here:

Watching 10 cm snow currently falling on my SVX.

svxmybaby: that's awesome... I'm envious to some extent that you get to drive through all that amazing looking scenery

Did you happen to capture any other photos for videos from the drive?

Today I considered pushing my Bordeaux off a cliff

but really... since the tranny is giving me **** I'm grounding it once again for a while and will be throwing new tires/brakes/calipers/rotors on the Laguna and rocking that for a while until I get time to really see wtf is going on with the tranny and/or pursue further replacement options when timing is better.

Got a quote from an exhaust shop for an exhaust system for my pearl. Luckily, the owner also has an SVX, and is going to build it based on his, so I don't have to make constant trips out there for measurement, fitment etc.

.. waxed it. It looks nice .. I removed the rear wing prior to last year's paint job. It looks just like the pic in the magazine article posted in the recent thread re: Sports & Exotic Cars.
