Mate your car scares me. I know it all might "look" solid but it obviously is not strong enough. You could seriously be putting lives in danger with the amount of mods you have done there.

No offence intended.... just don't want you to die.

i think it has somethin to do with the fact it has been shortened to make the diff higher so it was reweled a couple of times
that and the thrashing it gets daily from me RWD burnouts hehe im gonna have to start treating it with more respect if i want it to last

I wouldn't be surprised at all with parts of the rear end breaking running it in RWD. The Suby rear ends just aint designed for it. From what I've seen under the car I'm sure it will be perfectly safe when its completed.

Car problems, i think we all have them

Ive had a squeeky rear bearing, a radiator on the edge of overheating the engine and today i noticed that my fuel pump is making funny grinding noises.

I WANT A NEW FORESTER!

The trick to owning a subi is to fix it til you have a problem that you're happy to put up with, at this point stop fixing it and it'll be all good from there ;)
