Entered it in a car show on the 8th! Finally fixed my single locking slider problem! And wiped off some seriously massive (I'm thinking terradactyl) bird poop.

Your car makes me a little excited :lol:

Actually did this yesterday

Changed her plugs and fuel filter.....

And installed a 2001 instrument cluster..... Now I have an outside temp display and 2 trip odometers.

I really like how it looks. The red pointers are really nice, they almost glow.

[Subie 2003]

Installing center armrest extension, Perrin Rear Sway (if it shows up today) and buying new tires!

 

[Vinnyd]

redid my headlights(yesterday)
tackling bumper(today)

 

[thebeephaha]

Changed my oil on my own for the first time. Idle is so smooth after going to synthetic, before it would shake quite a bit despite correct levels and fairly new oil done at Sears (3.5mo with about 1000mi).

 

[bull_paqqy]

removed pinstripes, and had fog lights installed. :woohoo:

 

[subie_roo]

Looked at the nice ding someone put it in while I was at school :icon_frown:
Oh well...my paint sucks anyway!

Hey, did you have to do anything special to get the temp readouts to work? I'm thinking about picking up an '03 cluster for my '00 Outback (same sort of differences).

Just curious if the sender is already there, or if you had to rig one up.

I had to purchase a sender and mount it. I was able to purchase a new one for $32.00. I got the wiring pigtail off the car that I got the cluster out of.

Today is Subaru day at the Dutch dealers so I stop by for a free check-up and present

 

[Snoshado]

Mmm I got paid so I get to take my Fozzie in for some much needed repairs!

 

[Blue Fox]

^^ Repairs? What did it need?

I, on the other hand, drained BLACK transmission fluid from my Foz today. Yeah, a sort of a "kick-in-the-balls" moment for sure.....I'm just hoping since it didn't smell in any way burnt that I possibly dodged a bullet.

**crosses fingers**

Coolant leak, O2 sensor replacement etc.. Is the black tranny fluid maybe from when you fell in that huge mud hole thing?? I hope nothing's broken :lol:

 

[Blue Fox]

^^ Doubt it. I'm sure if that liquid mud got in there, it would have destroyed the tranny immediately. No grime came out, just black fluid (which wasn't burnt either, smelled better than the new stuff even) :shrug:

Bought some new floor mats, had the free check up done and....


I won a Subaru iPod Nano :woohoo:

 

[FLdrummer]

No grime came out, just black fluid (which wasn't burnt either, smelled better than the new stuff even)

It was probably just old fluid past it's functional lifespan. Had the exact same thing happen on an automatic Toyota Tacoma, especially the fluid directly from the torque converter. The vehicle still drove OK, but the fluid that came out was obviously not fresh. Didn't do any damage.

I'm worried this is going to happen too.

I picked up some ATF yesturday but didn't get around to starting the swap (4 liters at a time).

 

[jongrill]

Hit a construction cone doing 60mph last night....messed up the plastic skid plate....cursed a lot....you know..the usual...

 

[thebeephaha]

Car wash, new headers, polished my headlights, cleaned the interior.

Productive day I'd say.
