Rims in the boxes waiting for the snow to disappear

3 pod A-pillar gauge cluster also in the box just waiting

AEM UEGO wideband kit on its way!
AEM Boost gauge around the corner!
AEM Oil pressure sender kit on its way!
Manual Boost Control

that should probably do it for me for 2010 - seriously - this ****** is expensive! :spin:

I'll believe it when i see it. ;)



Lowering springs, rolled fenders, ALT wheels, shift, e-brake, and armrest boots to match my seats, fix my scratch, and MAYBE stg 2....


Now, we will see what i can afford when the time comes around.

Now that 2010 is here: I need to get my front and rear swaybars I have installed, my Perrin TMIC (black) will be here in a few days. Once installed I need to retouch my tune with Bren Tuning for some more boost. Im also getting my summer wheels torn down this week for powdercoating.

In the works for the summer will be, PnP stock manifolds, turbo inlet, new 50/50 BOV, 750cc injectors and maybe a ride down to see Bren for a real big tuning session.

I'd like to have 17s but going lower is a greater urge. Probably some plain H&R or Eibach springs. Projected for late summer.

A nice stereo system. The base impreza sound system sucks. Its been waaaaay to long since I've had decent tunes in my car. And maybe a TomTom or Garmin.

Might paint my sons' cars. Might do an engine swap in slap happy OBS.

Replace valve cover gaskets, install perrin headers, sti group n engine/ tranny mounts, 650cc injectors, re-tunning, paint job (on a few areas) if i can find someone who can do it for cheap

Keep them running. :unamused:

Beyond that, I'd like to tackle some maintenance and restoration on the SVX. Brakes, struts, tires, alignment, plugs, etc... Basically, just grab the 90k maintenance schedule and go right down the list. Plus some paint in a couple spots. Basically, by summer I'd like the SVX to look, feel, and drive just like it did when I bought it 7yrs ago with only 20k on it.

Depending on what I have left for expendible cash after that, I might try to paint the side skirts, front bumper, and hood on the WRX. I also might try the headlight restoration kit from FastWRX.com, since both the SVX and WRX need that badly.

- tune and bigger injectors once the system i want comes out
- d2 coilovers to replace my worn tanabes
- paint job
- 6mt if the n/a 5mt blows up
- 300awhp

and the accord is getting a better fuel pump setup and a race gas tune that breaks 650whp.

Take it to NED. Plenty of people will be glad to line up against you. I'll go once I change my gear oil in my tranny and my diffs.

Just gave it a tune-up, but I'd like to fix the piston slap (slop?) problem. Maybe I can talk the guy into doing a nice balance of the crankshaft, connecting rods and pistons. I'll definitely send the heads out for a re-planing to keep the head gasket problem from coming back.

Yeah I think i'll wait for it to warm up a bit first. Not to good for the tires and I suffer from traction issues anyways. It's not like driving a subbie = p

Down pipe and stage 2 tune in about a month, then later this year...front mount, bigger injectors, tint windows, smoke tail lights, cf hood, cf trunk, cf rear window spoiler, lowering springs, advan rs-d rims or powder coat my stock ones for now, new head unit and speakers. Then whatever else I cant afford.

piston slap? replace #2 and #4 pistons, and hone the cylinders. voila! no more noise. :)

getting a proper transmission in the GF's car, and fixing the alignment issues

Looks like all bets are off because we have to replace the radiator (AGAIN). This time it was rubbing the A/C condenser that was zip-tied in place. This car is always finding new ways to surprise us.

I feel like cutting all losses and just parting it out, taking it to a junk yard and celebrating it being crushed.

f/r sways w/endlinks

those are under consideration. just worried about premature wearing out of the struts from theses.

inski
02-16-2010, 07:59 PM
Theres not much difference in how the struts sit and work, but the control arm is now pushed down from where it normally sits. I'm thinking control arm bushings might wear a bit sooner than normal, but not too bad.

Im also considering this for my car or the OBS.
