moving to stage 2!

a few months went by and i never did install the exhaust components. (this was mostly due to not having space to work on my car for a lengthy amount of time). i ended up moving back to Easton when the company i was working for laid me off.

around that same time, my sister bought a chunk of land that had an actual garage on it! so i used that as my place to work on my car. I installed the uppipe and downpipe immediately..then flashed in Stage 2!

 that winter, i shot this video..my first time playing in the snow...

(video is no longer online...so ill have to find/re-upload it to youtbe later)

a few months later i figured i was competent enough to put a real cat back exhaust on the car..or i went and ordered one from COBB to compliment their downpipe.

i immediately fell in love with the boxer grumble!

Shortly after that i started regularly attending meets so i could learn as much as possible about my car.

this is what i looked like around that time:

 

a little while after that photo was taken, i ended up meeting up with a guy named Bill and we swapped trunks:

this was from that day (1:15:05) - went directly to a meet after the swap - second car in:

 on 04:10:05 i attended my first subaru meet and drive with the NEPA peeps:
