What have you done to your car today?

Picked up some new late model SG C Pillar replacements, obsidian black.

Very happy chappy, direct from Subaru Japan (Due to paint code).

With all the talk recently about cabin air filters, I thought I'd better check mine & give it a clean aswell.

Your not far off the mark mate :lol:
I'm guessing it would have to be a Wattle Tree, judging by the amount of yellow buds & flowers that I ended up removing from it :poke:

I didnt have a filter to clean but there was heaps of gunk in there :(

Bought a Ridge Ryder 5000kg Snatch strap & distribution strap from SCA today. Snatches are on special - $40 :biggrin:

Gonna look for bow shackles that aren't poo brown! :rolleyessarcastic:


Replaced the replacement HT leads I got with ones that actually fit! Plus they're pretty blue :rotfl:

Bad Fit:

Good to see you got the right ones :biggrin:

Do you still have some misfiring?

Yeah about time!

Tried Top Gun, Champion, cant remember 3rd one. Then found NGK at Bursons, haggled em down to $80 from $95. Next choice was gonna be genuine for $140 set!!!

Havent checked if misfire is still there yet, its gonna get a good workout in Bunyip SP Weds so I'll let you know then. Hopefully gone lol ;)

That'll be a good test for it for sure.
You'll have to report back to us after the the trip.
Hopefully it's all good :)

Sweeet! Until this past month, it had been a while since we've seen any mud down here!

Thanks! I've been wanting to go do that for a while... We've received a couple of inches of rain in the last couple of days. So, I decided to go see how slick it was. :lol:

Looks like it was slick & slippery alright. Seems as though you had a fair bit of sideways action there too :ebiggrin:

Yeah... It got a little 'slide-ways' a few times.. :lol:

I wish I could've stayed over there longer. But, I was running out of time and I still had to go grab lunch and get back to work..
 
The foz's roof is packup up just over 1metre high and the wholle car upto the front seats is full to the roof. Slowly moving house... in 40c degree heat. Its like ive been swimming im that sweaty :lol:
 
Well, it's not my car but I have organised for work to buy an MY07 Forrie. Picked the car up this afternoon. The car is not for me, but it's good to see a Forrie join the company fleet. I had to get Dave to check 2 cars, as the first was not acceptable. This one is from a Subaru dealer, great service history, well maintained and just had it's major service. Looks great.

I know how you feel taza :iconwink:
I remember when I was moving my place years ago, in temperatures similar to that (36-38 deg C) :bcool:
I had an old Kingswood (which I owned at the time) packed to the hilt, together with a thumping huge trailer hooked up on the back aswell. And no air con either :o

Just be careful & take care, especially with all that extra weight you're carrying on board :cool:

Yeah the car was full and had a small trailer pretty full. Had to take it all 160km to home. Was a slow trip but just chugged along at 90km/hr the whole way with my music and aircon on so I was happy.

It all has to go to Perth in 3 weeks anyway, we just have to be out of the house in Geraldton mid next week.

Be sure to let me know when ya down my way Taza. Wanna check out your ride ;)

Yeah sure, will do. We can go for a surf some time.


Repainted my rims back to silver too, was starting to get sick of black.

....and since to get money from the government for living away from home and studying I can't have more than $2500 so a bullbar and supercharger are most probably on the cards :biggrin: I hope, but i'll see.
