    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Yeah they're about the only cutoffs I'll buy now, they don't explode easily and they last a good long while

    their ability to resist random disassembly is a great advantage

    the diablo recip blades are absolutely ruthless too, shit will be bluing from the heat and still cutting long after the cheaper ones would have tapped out :laughing:

    if you make your own juice vaping costs pennies…

    130k on the stock motor is impressive
    Most wrxs are on their 3rd at that point

    I see a variety around here. There's a white, silver, and another blue one at work. A chick drives a silver VA WRX and I feel so bad for that thing. She's always in it letting it idle for what I'm assuming an hour +. o_O

    There's another chick that drives a blue bugeye at work.

    I think this motor wasn’t too bad if kept stock and unmolested. It’s the EJ25s in the STIs that were grenades.

    I'm on my second... :anonymous:

    I'm the 3rd owner and trying to treat it better. Just ordered a 5 pack of Motul gear 300 and going to change the oil here shortly to prep it before winter. Also gonna get some new tires and front/rear brakes in the Spring.
