Rear Swaybar Installed!
« on: September 02, 2006, 07:27:02 PM »
Paris on the ramps :-D

180% Stiffer!


Yeah! Its IN! time to go drifting!


Wow this made such a big difference! I can now take corners about +10mph faster!

I have yet to install the front one, It looks much easier to remove the exhaust manifold than to try to wiggle the Old one out new one in... So Ima wait about 1-2 months and order an OBX Equal-length Header So im not taking it of and reinstalling it 2x!

Yes I am most deffinatly going to need new endlinks... I have one extra stock rear one... Hopefully I dont have to use it...

Anyone want a RS rear sway? :-D

Quote me now while I'm feeling good about it.  I've decided a WRX will be the vehicle that replaces the Jeep.  I can't see paying Evo prices or justifying purchasing a halfassed/beat to death example for the same asinine amount of money.  For an affordable, point to point, all-weather capable performance car, a wagon fits the bill.  A swapped wagon, even better.

:-D Na there is still 1/32nd left in the center :-D Im just trying to save my RE-92s for the autox... So i keep running these on the street, Yes there are cords showing on parts of that tire... No good for autox nemore... Will have the RE92s on monday though they are @ 8/32nds so they should last me 2-3 months? Sounds good to me :-D

The hole closest to the pivot (rearmost) is the stiffest as there is the least amount of levrage from the center of the Swaybar... Make sense?

btw still lookn good mang

This is what happened when I was changing my oil the other day... The ramps got the best of Paris AGAIN!




As I stated in my Oil Change Post... The bumper just doesnt like to stay on :-\ Ive replaced all the clips many times and both inner fenders too! Need all new ones again, it always costs about 100$ @ subaru dealer... (Both Inner fenders and all the clips) Takes about 4-5 days for everything to arrive... Sux....

Well I got new bumper clips this morning and am modifying my inner fenders so they stop dragging and rubbing... :-D though I am really against zip ties for some reason.. I really want to buy new inner fenders they are 28$ a piece... However other stuff is more important right now since I will onlybe driving my car for 1 more month before I start driving my truck for winter... :-\
