Washed the BRZ and put it away, under cover for the winter.

Ace's 2013 Subaru BRZ Build

Got around to wiring my driver side headlight harness along with installing my Chasebay's windshield reservoir as well.

LoL, I was going to tuck my VDC control module there, but my ChaseBay's reservoir tucked very nice right there.

Nothing, because 10 months ago a nice lady decided her phone was more important than stopping at a red light…

Since I have not been on the track this summer finally changed the oil. Actually got just over 3k on it. Only had one 5qt container of 0W40 so the last quart and half was European 5W40, engine will probably blow up tomorrow!

Well I did not blow my engine but I Hooned some on the way to work yesterday. Clutch felt a little weird on the way home. Today headed to work my clutch broke loose in 6th gear on the highway. Looks like I smoked my ACT clutch in 30k miles. Was wondering so I counted my shifts on the way home today. 196 shifts in 19 miles. Got to love Dallas traffic.

i couldn't count that high in traffic.

but my typical weekend going's on with the car, i'm probably close to 100-200 shifts as well. of course half those are rev-matching and engine braking to slow down to stop lights because it's fun.

Oh hell no! Not for this car. This is the first clutch I have ever taken out, put well over 100k on vehicles and never needed a clutch. But that was in a small town and more normal driving.
