So I blew the motor doing stupid and fun stuff... all at the same time!

I must say that was a great time! Which lead to this...

The only go fast goodie that was added was a Catless ERZ downpipe. it didn't even throw a code, until an O2 sensor wire got messed up 5k miles later...

Build Quality was so-so, not the best but not horrible!

And a blown transmission as I pulled the car out of the house...

So after having bad luck with a clutch masters clutch flying to pieces I went with an STi disc and WRX pressure plate. LOVE it! I'm also quite intimate with the pulling of the transmission...

Oh yeah I also bought an AP, I was more impressed with Stage 1 than Stage 2. So I sold that and have dreams of going open source.

While the car was getting rebuilt I drove this as my DD for a while

a 1971 BMW 1602, the anemic brother to the not as anemic 2002. It was a FUN car and we all took turns using it as an Auto X car. THAT was interesting.

I wanted some Tunes!

Alpine 9857 Deck with Sirius and FullSpeed capabilities!
I hid the sirius in the console, and took out the bracket that is useless, which weighs the same amount as the siruis tuner, then ran the antenna wires under the carpet and to the roof. Then ran the other control wires through the console to the head unit.
I cut a hole in the back of the Forester din pocket so that I could put my iPod in there with the cable for a totally hidden install.
