Got a few updates from last month to now.

Had Creative Auto Lab from Clovis, CA mould the Cwest rear to the bumper. Looks a whole lot nicer now. Finished it just in time for the Fresno Area Subaru Trust aka F.A.S.T. Little Big Meet.

On the way back home from Santa Barbara 2 weeks ago I destroyed my Wasp Composites splitter. Totally my fault and considered an installation error. I should have bought about it when k installed the SCraft lip. Maxing out the splitter rods to the last few threads was stupid on my part and I should have known better that a piece of aero would need more than a few threads to hold especially at higher speeds. The air pressure in my engine bay also caused the side markers to pop off too. That or side markers just suck.

Finally installed my rear stainless lines for Lone Pine Time Trials that I did last week. Pretty much a high speed autox w/ up to triple digit speeds.

Destroyed my Bridgestone S04 265/35 18 at Lone Pine Time Trials. I got a good 11k miles out of them with autox and canyon driving out of them.

Replaced it with Nitto NT01 245/40.

Picked up new wheels to daily/autox/track (LOL I don't daily this car though). Didn't want to roll around on NT01s

Wedsport 17x9 TC105N on 255/40 Rivals

Ran stock tire since I am new. I'd rather lose traction at low speed than at a higher speed with stickier tire.

May 27th I also installed my Greddy Oil Cooler which I totally fucked up by not tightening the sandwich plate all the way. I bukake'd my engine bay with oil on a test drive for leaks. That was a pain to clean too.

Picked up a Tommy Kaira/Rowen exhaust. This thing is beautiful! Love the way it sounds!

I like the fact that you're doing most of the changes yourself to the car. Nothing like learning as you go. Seems like it's becoming expensive in your end though. Haha

Installed my Radium dual catch can kit today.
