Dropped off the S on Monday for a major 100k overhaul:

Supercharger sent to Vortech for complete rebuild, supercharger belt replacement
replacement of master and slave clutch cylinders
TCT adjustment
valve adjustments
wheel bearing nut retorques
EVERY fluid being replaced
cabin air filter replacement
PCV valve replacement
state inspection

When I get it back it will go in for a full detail.

Can't WAIT for spring!!!!!!

100K is a nice achievement. Congrats Mark.

Car should keep going for longer. Are you getting a Billman TCT?

Lets hope the weather gives you an early start to the driving season.


Wife and I are planning a trip to the USA. Home of the half price gas as she describes the USA.
Our last trip over was before covid and we are looking forward to seeing family and friends.
My auto plans are to visit the Northeast Classic Car Museum in Norwich, NY, attend a road rally and meet with some S2K people.

as long as it’s ok (no ticking noise) you are good. Otherwise just sandblast the wormgear

Woah. The STi is no more.

Super happy I bought the CTR instead of holding out for an STi. That, and car prices (and inventory) being completely bonkers.

Y'know, with all the complaining I hear about high fuel prices, it sure doesn't seem to deter anyone from actually driving anywhere. Traffic was a mess this morning.

I'd gladly keep the higher fuel prices if it meant 50% less traffic on the road.

I know traffic is a pain but I’m happy people are getting around. Otherwise the streets were so empty, it was depressing.

and while middle class will handle the higher fuel prices, it’ll be hard for the working class and hourly wage earners.
