    Muchos gracias

    I was under the same impression when I was searching for a Subaru as well. I always seemed to associate Subaru with reliability.

    That's gotta be the most interesting to watch exhaust clip video I've ever seen

    your build is gorgeous!
    I was a Subaru guy before my tacoma, I still have it too but it needs a new motor.. has a miss firing cylinder 4. I want to get it going so I don't put more miles on the Tacoma than are necessary...
    I miss having it never failed that another sub guy would wave when passing, don't get that as much with the tacoma.. maybe ones there's sliders and a winch bumper on there it'll change haha

    Haha thanks! I'd love to get a stabilizer and play around with some video more often. I get a kick out of it.

    Thanks! I miss it dearly haha. I noticed that a lot when I lived in Colorado. I got lots of waves from fellow owners down there. I always thought that was cool. That pesky cylinder 4 seems to be the one that always goes haha.

    Those RS coupes are sweet! Be an awesome candidate for an STI drivetrain swap.

    I've been considering the swap, but at this point I just want it to be what it is, and keep it reliable to a point. I feel like that would in the "more money, more problems" category haha

    Yeah for sure haha. Would be a bit overkill for a daily. Great for a project car though.

    Well life in the diesel world was short lived lol. Posted the truck up for sale recently. I dearly miss having a car already. The truck is badass... it's just not for me.


    I'd be lying if I said this wasn't helping my decision to get rid of it and get into a car again:


    upload_2017-3-16_7-14-19.jpgupload_2017-3-16_7-15-45.jpgupload_2017-3-16_7-15-58.jpg


    My good friend picked up an R33 Skyline GTS-T...Truck was loaded down in the bed with a motor, tranny, tons of parts in the bed and packed in the car. Gonna be a sweet project when all is said and done.


    It really is a sweet truck. I almost have to keep myself from rolling the windows down while driving through town or listening to cold starts because it sounds so badass, makes a part of me want to keep it haha. Unfortunately, I can't have my cake and eat it too in this scenario.


    If anyone is interested here's my CL ad for the Duramax.

    https://wyoming.craigslist.org/cto/6041053663.html


    Found a clean car in Laramie I'm really tempted to try to pick up, so I'm trying to move it quickly.



    Skyline got the interior and engine bay painted this past weekend:

    LBZ is sold :woot:

    A little sad to see it go, as it was a pretty cool truck. But it will make someone else happy. Was a good truck to me for the short time I had it. Maybe someday when I win the lottery I'll pick up another one to pull my rock crawler and racecar around with.
