another reason why i only check for how the car fits me during the test drives and to verify dat everything works.

it takes me at least 3-4months to really understand the car so i dont really fuss over the test drive unless it's so bad i cant stand it.

yah, cause i remember reading a month or so ago subaru stopped making the 16's and were starting up the 17's. which means i would assume they started planning their production in april aka start of new fiscal year and would begin ramping again pretty soon.

considering there is no visual changes, only background improvements, i dont foresee subaru taking till october to deliver.

Apparently I cannot drill holes in a straight line, even though they were all marked out

Looks good. What type of material are you going to wrap around the wood.

per the dealer, when i was looking at the WRX and STI's they mentioned that it would take about 12 weeks for a custom wrx and 18weeks for a custom STI..

ozite?

or just matte black paint?

matte black textured paint?

kenchan · 04-24-2016, 05:34 PM

18 weeks is like 10yrs.

unless it an exotic or super special trim, im not going to wait 18 weeks for a car.

kenchan · 04-24-2016, 05:50 PM

david- forgot to mention, i checked the AF leaning 1 on the accessport today. maxs were -2.34/+1.56%, at 0 while on the gas. i did a few regular and wot runs too, dynamic adv. multiplier, fine knock learn, feedback knock all checked out. no issue with my map with my fuel.

so i after the drive, i took the accessport off da car as i didnt feel like looking at the thing all the time.

haha

kenchan · 04-24-2016, 05:52 PM

something about getting older.. i prefer the simplicity.

kenchan · 04-24-2016, 05:54 PM

and i noticed today dat my STI does have a blinking shift light like our Z's. lol might help to read the owner's manual, huh?

but by dat time the car isn't pulling as hard.. i should read the manual how to lower the shift light rpm..
