Yeah that's a perk of living in the south. Still waiting for things to continue to settle. I can't tell if the slight butt sag I have is actual butt sag or just the rear not settled all the way yet.

Wish me luck as I drive 150 miles home to Atlanta tomorrow with the RSB 75% connected...

Duct tape? Take it easy and you'll be fine.

On the passenger side, the bolt that attaches the mount to the frame through the evap canister tab crossthreaded and isn't in. On the driver's side, there's a piece of slag in the threaded insert where the bushing clamp attaches so that bolt also isn't in. It's been so hard not to push the car. Can't wait to get home and get my buddies at the dealer to run a tap through those so I can put in my Whiteline 22mm RSB and hit some corners.

Superacerc- Are you living in columbus cause thats where Im at and have seen maybe 2 other foresters driven by older folks.

On topic... Looks great, nice and level for the most part.

Superacerc

I dont live there, ill just be passing that way going from houston back home to augusta for a holiday vacation. Figured it was easier to explain where I was heading through ga than describe the whole trip.

If youre around when I pass through maybe you can grab a bite to eat with me and my family.

Cool!
I'll blow the horn on my way through Cobb tomorrow to TN and again Saturday on my way back.
Seems like I just did this three weeks ago.

Okay sway bar is on solid and now that I can push... Handling is so much better and the car is 100 times more fun to drive. Just hitting some of the quick twisties around my house, corners that used to challenge my Swift setup are a breeze. D-Specs are still on 5 FFS F&R for 250 more miles but I don't suspect too much adjustment will be needed. The ride is significantly better than my stock setup. Couldn't be happier so far.

Whoa, your ride improved over stock? These days I think a stock Forester rides on clouds when I'm in one.

Two factors play into that statement. One, my front struts were blown. Two, its a different kind of ride. More European. When you hit a bump on the stock setup, it's smooth but to me unsettling in that it takes a while for the chassis to be composed again. On this setup, it's more of a refined thud and almost instant composition.
