Yeah i got it too. Definitely awesome purchase. :tup:
Haven't been on in some time, pretty busy with work and other things. Nothing too new with the car. Changed my map from E85 to 91 oct for the first time in over a year. Cars running really well so far. Ive been on a modding hiatus for a while. Might get some new stuff for Xmas though. This is in the list:
Whiteline front sway and end links
Defi boost and oil pressure
In dash pioneer touch DVD player
Grimmspped front plate relocation
Jordan @defined: I gave my mom your info if she wants to get me some stuff!

Yes, i know not to run PS fluid, and run ATF. I was having issues a while ago, changed the fluid several times with ATF, replaced O rings, etc. Had two shops tell me it was failing and would need to be replaced over the past year. Finally had to do it. Upside is that i got a brand new OEM Subaru pump, i guess they redesigned them and are much better somehow now.
And no it is not Plasti-dip. Its similar, but gets applied a different way and also gets removed in a certain way. Here's the place that's doing it, and the spray wrap:

A little hiccup with spraying the rims, so I won't be picking them up until next week sometime. Hopefully have then mounted next Saturday, I'll definitely post up some pics when they get put on!
Gonna have my car emissions tested at lunch today. There's a really good chance it fails due to the Cobb dp, even though its catted. So I've set aside tomorrow to swap in the stock dp, go back and pass, then immediately swap it out for the Cobb. Luckily the emissions center is literally 1.5 miles from my place.

Yeah, they run the car on a dyno and do an obd2 scan and sniffer test. They can also fail you on a visual inspection I think. I'm on a local co forum, and any upgraded dp, catted or not, has a good chance of failing usually. Unless you have an emissions tune or something from your tuner, which I don't have.

They should not be allowed to fail you for an upgraded cat. In california, where they have CARB, ok, sure. But the rest of the country, you're allowed to replace factory emissions bits with other brands. So as long as it passes the sniffer test and has ANY cat, they should not be allowed to fail.
edit: about about 98% sure on this, so its possible that i'm wrong. And if im wrong please let me know...i like learning new things!

Haha, I don't know the actual rules or regulations on failing someone for visual inspection. But I've heard stories about people passing the sniffer out here and being failed because they couldn't visibly identify the cats or something. I'm not too worried about the visual part, odds are I won't pass the sniffer, but I'll keep my fingers crossed!
