First time Subaru owner
« on: January 15, 2019, 10:00:27 am »
Hey everyone,

Picked up a 2010 Forester NA 5mt last year and am still really stoked about it. I've been enjoying working on it, having done the timing belt /water pump and installing mudflaps. Overall, just trying to keep things clean on the interior/exterior (previous owner didn't care too much about cleanliness).

I've got plans for more that I want to work on, the most imminent being wheels and tires for the summer.

Looking forward to exploring the world of Subaru, and seeing people's STIs (the car that is).

Welcome! More plans eh? Gonna dump it on some low low coils?

Today happens to also be our weekly Tim Horton's meet. If you have some time, swing on by and see some Subaru's!

Welcome.

diamondedge is definitely the guy to talk to about lifting Subarus.
