Yeah, but it is a little extra insurance against last night. You guys didn't tell the officer the speedo didn't work, did you?

On a side note, if you want, I can play wheelman for a bit after work tonight.

Did that CV boot come apart again or something related to that?

Re: Project GC8 AKA USDM STi Killer

I don't think officers let you off for the whole speedo not working thing

I plan to try using that one on the first cop that pulls me over in my beater though..

Re: Project GC8 AKA USDM STi Killer

So I just picked up my new CV Joint at Orry.

A little background for those that didn't read that post. I have NEW but cheap Ebay aftermarket CV Joints on the front. The tab on the INNER joint broke off and it puked 80-90% of it's grease all over the place leaving little to none left in the boot. I clamped the boot back down and now it knocks. That all happened about the same time. So hopefully that's it

Re: Project GC8 AKA USDM STi Killer

Well I swapped it out and was holding it on the output shaft of the tranny with two zip ties, JDM SONNNNN!!!! And it helped it a bit but was still getting a "thudding". Today I took it home and was like FUCK THIS and found the old pin and put it in. The holes didn't line up 100% so I didn't think it would go in, but I just beat the piss out of it with a hammer and my man muscle and it went in.

The car is now working fine, I think the thudding is still there? But it comes and goes and it's much lighter so it's to the point to where I can't tell if it's the road or not which means it's fixed in my head.

Did some other shit the past few days.
1.) Got my shift knob on, no more stick stabbing me in the hand when I shift.
2.) Got my sway bar brackets FINALLY and put my STi sway bar on
3.) Tonight I put in my wheel liner to protect my car from waterz

Re: Project GC8 AKA USDM STi Killer

Added this to the original post but wanted to also put it here. Shane @ DB sent this to me, thanks BTW! A good comparison to how amazing my Evo is for sure, but the low end torque is so hawt on the Suby. Except when it's remotely wet out... this winter is gonna be scary.

Re: Project GC8 AKA USDM STi Killer

I wasn't going to post anything, because at this point... it's just fucking retarded and funny. But at this point I'm done, as of 30 minutes ago I more or less confirmed I have a major blown head gasget. As in coolant was spewing out of my DS head area and my car was overheating to 217F if sitting for a bit.

This has been the worst year in cars I've ever had and I've had some pretty bad ones. I can't work on my cars anymore because of the cold garage, I guess I'm taking the bus to work this winter.

/end fucking rant

Re: Project GC8 AKA USDM STi Killer

Don't know what to say, that just ultra-blows. Maybe sell some parts off it to get the Evo back on the road and attack the Subaru come spring?
