Default What did you do to your car today

For myself:
New drivers door check/stop.
2 new front speakers, alpine 4x6 2 ways
New OEM floor mats, black w/ black Porsche logo.
New (Used) vacuum canister
OEM washer fluid pump (had some hack job aftermarket one before, was ruining the engine bay feng-shui)
New T-fitting/valve for the windshield washers (mine was non-functional, causing only 1 of the washers to work)
A good washing

I think that's it, t'was a productive day.

Drove the $hit out of it.

Last night I installed a rear sway bar and 250# Welt front springs, had to go "test" it out on some back roads.

I washed my WRX today. It's overcast and rains coming so the 951 will stay in. Hope to get her out tomorrow.

Tom,

Can't say how refreshing it is to see such an honest, straightforward and detailed auction. Good luck selling that beauty.

Drove it, washed it,waxed it for the first time..made it so at least 1/2 the hatch shuts..vacuumed the ocean out of my car...put a bolt in one of the seat rails so it holds a lil better..will do some more

On Moms 944 I put a new bat in, started it for the first time in months, and will soon wash it/take it for a lil drive hopefully

Drained the first bit of coolant flush out of it (951) which I'll finish later tonight or tomorrow. I'll probably do a couple more little things on it tomorrow so I can (finally) get it out of the garage and get the 944 in there to do an overdue belt retensioning and oil pump drive sleeve replacement next week. . .
