Jax Mod Squad #151 Proof!

jaxscuby · 03-03-2018, 08:41 AM

Been sometime since a JMS thread.
Most have moved on life/years/cars, but some of us are still around.

SCCA AutoX still are third weekend of the month.

So after my 02 bugeye wrx was customized I had to find a donor body
for my drvetrain (+268k second clutch).

So that is what i do on the weekends when not assigned to Dad duty.
wrenching on some loose items this sunday.

Yeah I know it's an odd looking Subaru but couldn't pass up the deal on this car. 2012 G37S Convertible with 58K miles in pretty good shape. Here are some more pictures

Subakook · 04-22-2018, 03:57 PM

Hope to be installing new lca bushings next weekend. I bought the avo tool if anyone needs to use.
Dont have to remove the control arm with this tool.

Been wanting to check out some autox. I have not skills and a few mods tho. What part of town is it on?

jaxscuby · 04-23-2018, 07:09 AM

sometime up in my neck of the woods, but sometimes at people's house where they live
around town.

Charlie Fairmont · 05-12-2018, 10:22 PM

Hey Jacksonville, FNG here saying hello. Just got my first Subaru. If anyone has a new silver trunk without the big wing, I'm interested. May save me a trip to the body shop...

In the mean time, I'll be suffering through this break-in period. If you see a frustrated looking guy in a silver one doing a lot of short shifting, that's me, lol.

jaxscuby · 05-14-2018, 09:44 PM

bled my brakes after new pads and turned rotors.
but no joy with my clutch slave cylinder..even with vacuum bleeder.
well probably swapping slave cylinder and rebleed..oh joy..

Sparks · 05-29-2018, 10:20 AM

It sorta seems fitting that I chime in since it seems mostly old guys posting

Scott - whom now lives in SC and does not own a Subaru anymore

However, my 00 Honda Insight gets me 60mpg on my 25 mile commute

jaxscuby · 06-28-2018, 05:28 AM

60 mpg?! what type of voodoo / black magic has honda cast on cars?!

jaxscuby · 08-23-2018, 04:25 PM

jaxscuby · 08-24-2018, 05:16 AM

Leonardo · 08-26-2018, 11:07 AM
