      fired up the 323, drove over to the parent's house for supper, drove it back home again.

      took two HID bulbs out of the lightbar on the gray 4WD for possible inclusion on the subaru, pending measurements.

      rebuilt the shifter linkage for the subaru. shifts freakin' awesome now.

              had to smash on a 7/8 socket on my locking lug nuts to get them off as I lost my key when I had to address a seized parking brake mechanism in the RR caliper the other day...grrr lol, so I have 2 chrome nuts on there...looks like **** but works for now. Had the rear wheels off yesterday to do a complete clean/adjust and got the parking brake mech working perfectly again

              today I'm going to tighten my shiftlinkage bolts, as it's getting a bit sloppy lol...then might do a boost leak test on her if I get bored.

                changed oil. Was 500 miles overdue.... I was going to do it last weekend but didn't have enough time. Oh well. At least I got it done today. Oil looked ok for being a little overdue.

                    man I wish I was able to track down BGs like you guys in the US lol...it's pointless in Canada since they're all base model rear drum, b8 powered pieces of junk (minus the stupid rare Pro GT)
