My original LN magnetic drain plug failed when I was tightening it back up so I got another one which is a new design and it doesn't look like this one will fail. Oh, and then I took some pictures before I took it for a "test drive" since it was such a nice evening

AutoX

Did a Autocross for the first time on Saturday, what a BLAST!. Some other forum members were also in attendance. Now I need new brakes, oil change and a good detailing. The list of items to go over this winter keeps getting longer.

My Frankencar is going back to OE...maybe

well my Subaru powered (EJ2.5 SOHC) 98' Boxster is looking like it will return to an OE engine soon (CA smog is a bit*&)....

so two things now,
1- anybody got a spare running drivetrain???
2-anybody interested in a plug-n-play Subie setup (will support any Subie motor)?

LMAO @ me
