    Hey who wants to play name that (missing) part?

    Noticed a threaded hole on my bell housing that looks like it had something attached until recently..
    20190827_141926.jpg what's that hole for behind the cat? (Looking in from the passenger wheel well)

    pretty sure powerstop ceramic pads and rotors is what I put in the wife's Outback. Major difference in my opinion. I'd do it to the Taco in a heartbeat. Funny thing for me was that no one could touch RockAuto's prices locally, even with the shipping it was still way cheaper. I don't even know why I bother looking around any more. I should just decide weather i'm going OEM, or Aftermarket, and if its aftermarket, then it comes from RockAuto

    First time I've used them and I was impressed. Super fast shipping, email to let me know the parts were on my doorstep. What I liked about the shipping was they break it down so I could see which combination of parts were costing what to ship. I also bought sway bar links, spark plugs and a cabin air filter ($5!) so that may have affected things but adding the rotors took me from $20 shipping to $80. Choosing different brands also affected the shipping, both price and delivery eta.

    I am certain I have more than 3' of 2 AWG, which you are welcome to. Also even more in 4 and 6.

    @Canoehead Thank you very much for the offer!

    as an FYI, Atlantic Car Stereo on Main Street in Dartmouth sells wire by the foot, 4 AWG is approx $3.50 / ft and they also stock 0 AWG.
    they are open M-F / 8 - 5 pm. This is really close to my house, so if you need some wire, PM me and we can work out the details

    I remember a bracket supporting the Cat that attached to the transmission or bellhousing. Pretty sure I have the bracket but it is not attached to my pipe anymore, which is why that joint leaks so badly...

    My exhaust system does seem to be missing a lot of brackets, I guess one more can't hurt..

    I've been thinking about what I want my end game to be with sliders and bumpers ect...
    and I think this guy is the closest I've seen so far, I'm not interested in doing 37's but the slider with the fender protection is spot on

    Anyone know where to get injectors that are not remans or chinese? Dealer wants 173 per injector (not terrible really) and the junkyards want to sell a complete motor.

    House work update: Finally got a stop work order at my house last week. I guess tearing the outside of the house apart doing windows and rigid insulation was enough to raise eyes from HRM planning and permits office haha
    Applied for a permit Thursday last week, 2-3 week wait so I am on a small vacation from working on the house


    *Side note: I always clean up each evening after the work for the day is done, so I never leave an unsightly mess on the yard
