Drove to work for the first time in 3 months today my rear end swap subframe/arms etc from an sti(the whole back end basicaly) has made a huge difference :multijump:
 
Changed oil and filter and changed spark plugs for the first time ever!(me, not the car) An absolute pig to do the ones on the passenger side but all in all I was glad I got stuck in! :653:

fitted new leather interior, need to get power sorted to passenger seat as they are both electric. Also my Deatschwerks uprated fuel pump turned up and also new caliper decal's so i can refurb my AP's at last.
 
well had a poxy weekend car wise, 1st of all went to the square for a bit of shopping saturday morning and came out to find my alarm going off and this on the side, i'd say i just missed the C**T who did it as well thats the most annoying part

the pic doesn't really show how bad it is but it's right down to the metal on 80% of it :angry1:

so i said i'd give it a sand and buff the best part of it out, i did that touched it up not so bad now but thats not the end of it, when pulling out of my back garden i rubbed the front bumper off the gate piller and it looks like wolverine took a swipe at it, all this would have to happen the week before heatwave and im booked solid so no time to fix it up :angry1:
 
Blew my rear diff on my way to get some nct bits sorted
Scary sh*t was going along at 120klms when
what sounded like a jet engine in my car started i have never stopped so quick in my life

Nearly had a sh*t fit thinking I'd blown the rear diff with the rattle coming out of the back of the car. Happily turns out that it was just the bell that holds the donut wheel loose rattling around as I'd taken out the donut :hammerhead: :hammerhead:
 
I got a Full air con setup off davelegacy yesterday for the nurburg trip, so fitted that today,also changed the oil and a/c + altenator/ps belts.
Thanks Dave for allowing me to sort you out after the trip :subaru:
