Springs should be done by oneself or with friends. I'm sure you could convince someone on here to let you borrow their garage/driveway for a couple hours to get it done.

Hah, yeah me and my roomate tried to do it however it didn't go well. Didn't have a torque wrench and ended up snapping the socket wrench on the first bolt. It's something I really want to do myself but don't have proper tools.

spotted a white wagon at the chase bank in novato. Then coming back to my car, i spotted a lic subby mansion on some paipuh in my window. pssshhh does it look like my car needs work??
I have taken it to lic before, and don't know where the new place is, so thanks, good to know.
I take it you're a promoter, or a sleeper of the noah or something?

Don't want to snap socket wrenches.

A couple pictures of my STi in my i-club garage. My avatar is one of them. I can also be seen driving around in a 95 red GM6 L 2.2l now, it's the one with the wicked cool perfect condition hubcaps on steelies.

Good meeting you at FLI yesterday. my FXT is in good hands today with them installing my STi steering rack. However, I think Ryan is going to wind up draining my bank account before it's all said and done. Those coilovers have been on my mind since last night.

Hahahaha. Ryan has a way of doing that. It was definitely cool shooting the **** with you guys. I am sure you will notice a huge difference in steering feel with that rack. If you wanted to save some $$$, you could always go with some other suspension upgrades like an ALK, sways, end links, etc, and not break the bank. What suspension work have you already done?

NB on 101 between Petaluma and RP/Cotati:

black 04/05 STi with stock wing, angled exhaust, and a LIC license plate frame - why do you have clear garbage bags wrapped over the front seats?

Didn't even look when they went by. No big deal, no one likes my lesbaru.
