Yea I've been having a little bit of buyers remorse cause I've never really owned anything but a honda. (Like 6 civics and a accord) I did have a nissan 300zx in high school but thing was the devil.

Got my wheels finished and tires swapped over
Yea I'm really happy with it. I've wanted an STi wagon for a while. I'm sure the itch to do something to it will come but for now the plan is to just drive it.

Haha. Right now I'm just trying to get some mileage on it before I start having some fun. Only had 19 miles on it when I drove it off the lot.

How many miles on your car? How often did you flush your system?

154,000 about 50-60k miles. The bearing on the impeller was pretty much toast....
The procedure sounds simple but it's a pain to do.... Remove belt, alternator, pulley on water pump, tensioner which is a bolt and a 8mm Allen bolt, drain coolant, remove water pump, then do the whole thing in reverse to put back together and refill system and in a space less than a width of your hand....

Gotta love transverse FWD, aside from pulling the timing cover, a WP install in a Subaru is not bad. With the FA/FB engine it's even easier since it's driven off the serpentine belt.

And maintence is the biggest reason why this car will not be in my ownership after 200,000 miles

oh, what are you replacing it with? I almost had a 97 BMW 318ti today, almost, it would be a cheap alternative to a BRZ or Fiesta ST, and a possible M3 swap, but it never came to be.

So the chrome finish on my steering wheel H started flaking off. And of course you cannot just buy the H. You have to buy the whole air bag assembly. So I did the only thing I could think of.....
The fake J's racing steering wheel emblem. Mine did have the "chip" out of the bottom but this one was less noticeable than others I have seen. Bottom right corner.
But of course I can't be running around with a red H on my car...... so Black/Chrome overlay to try and keep it stock looking.

So what do you'll think is causing it to flake? Sun or cleaning chemicals?
