For five years my winter car was a Legacy GT that impressed me by being entirely indifferent to the weather or roads conditions, but snow actually makes the Impreza happy. I'll probably drive only Miatas and Imprezas for the rest of my life. |
Clearing out a foot of snow, even with a new snowthrower, is a lot of work. Mother Nature sucks rabid donky dick.

i like shoveling for real. i feel like a man.

What I assume must be going on when I hear folks in the northeast talking about the snow they've been getting:

I can understand and feel for you Richard seeing as some of the ladies I date are going through that time right now. Not fun for them either.
I lived in State College Penn and Spokane Wash. Man have I shoveled my fair share of snow over the years. I kinda liked it back then but I'm over that now.:party: |
What are the chances I can successfully swap valve springs in my new head at home with the rental tool?
|
Aftermarket springs with stock shocks. Good idea or bad idea. If bad remimber im drunk if bad odea if good idea rwmimber om a genius?

I've done it before with a giant C-clamp and a notched piece of tubing. Not the most fun, but if works.

it's easy if you have this: https://www.miataturbo.net/attachmen...ine=1360502586 |
paste this into your CMD.EXE:
Code:
tracert -h 60 216.81.59.173 |

BTW, both Subarus are 5MT, so they both have real differentials in the center. I know the Legacy's was viscous LSD and I'm about 99% sure the Impreza uses exactly the same part. I will say that the Legacy center diff was so gummy that on hot summer days it would buck like a 4WD truck with the steering at full lock. |

Assuming that by "aftermarket" you mean something with a significantly higher springrate, and not something like a Racing-Beat spring which is shorter than stock but not significantly stiffer, this is a good way to make the car feel a lot floatier / bouncier. What, if I may ask, are you trying to accomplish here?

Seriously, there was a time when I was militant in my anti-MS ways (though I was not alone.) But since Bill Gates stepped down they really don't leave that bad taste in my mouth anymore. Meanwhile, Ubuntu has taken such a seriously wrong turn that I'm losing hope for the future of linux. |
BRB, putting Ubuntu on my junk computer.
