  1. Yeah, no problem. The DIY options aren't as bad, just a bit more time-consuming. If I had time and space, I would have run it outside instead of through the interior and a single longer piece instead of multiple connection points.
  2. So I had the same issue a couple of years ago, took it to the dealer near me and I think the quote was like $5k for just the brake lines. The reasoning was it was pretty labor intensive and I do not disagree with them. Subaru ran the brake lines through the interior of the car so to replace it, you have to remove the rear seats, carpet, and drop the gas tank also I believe. There is a post by another member here in the forum where they went the alternate route and spliced in a new line by just buying brake lines and additional tools from Amazon. I took that route, called up my boy who I worked with at Toyota and we tackled it. I am a bit rusty in flaring brake lines so his help was great. I will see if I can find the post on the brake line repair for ya. **Edit** Found the post by @covertrussian who detailed their brake line fix and I mostly followed it..I say mostly cuz I missed one of the pics and had a longer brake line from the inside to the wheel. which led to more work on my end but this has held solid for 3 yrs so far **
  3. I think Max is pointing out that someone commented in that thread there is a shop in Sterling, MA. Enhanced Street Performance Depending on "Boston area", you have 3 options I know off the top of my head and I am listing them based on distance from Downtown Boston. I know some have traveled further to a specific person. If you are north of Boston, there is Wicked Performance Group, I think they were called Wicked Innovations before but I may be incorrect. They in Manchester, NH about 1hr north of DT (Downtown) Boston without traffic. If you more towards Worcester county then ESP in Sterling, is what has been recommended in that other thread. They also about an hour from DT Boston. If you are South of Boston, then it would be Wicked Matt, he is in Exeter, RI. About 1.5hrs from DT Boston. I known other owners who have gotten worked done by Wicked Matt or Wicked Performance Group. None have complained. From my experience, Wicket Matt is a complete tuner gear head, I have had him do some work on my car when my clutch fork gave away and he was super communicative, responded quickly by emails and explained things he found including shooting me over a video of the issue he saw. There was a saying when I used to roll around with the import kids, most subbies were probably tuned by Wicked Matt in the NE area. This is not to discount the other 2 shops as I do have a personal friend who had work done by Wicked Perfomance, brand new engine and they rebuild his tranny with all spur gears, and Wicked Matt tuned it . I know I also been thinking of getting more work done but this is my dd without trying to take over the wife's car.
  4. Taking the plunge and have contacted Matt Miner about tuning my car, been overdue. Going to have to tow it to him and get clutch work done also as I have been procrastinating the replacement of the clutch fork when it broke a couple of months back.
  5. Thanks and holy crap I missed a lot . Thanks for the heads up on the meet, unlucky too far for the drive.
  6. Currently looking to buy a v3 version of the Accessport and may consider v2 depending on price. Would be nice if one with all the accessories would be available. Planned to look at NASIOC also in their FS section
  7. Maybe inquire if Madrig would be interested in making for the drivers side, wonder if no one ever asked before so it never came up
  8. @seanyb505Tried Plasti dip with the glossy coating? I have done mine in black and kept it matte.
  9. Should work for me, I am 40 mins away. You pick the spot, 10 am-ish okay?
  10. I can work around your schedule, Saturday would be best to ignore any traffic situation. iirc you aint that far from me
  11. Great idea, I know i been places there there was conduits that came down from the ceilings and an a quad outlet which was great for keeping cords off the ground
  12. lol you never know engine rebuild with some sports in the background with friends over..idk I am i guess younger and hope to do something with my son when he gets older
  13. Looking good, not sure if this might be something of interest on your end but I know when I get the chance to get my garage built up I plan to get a tv mounted to be able to watch sports or youtube videos when I am working on my car so I plan to ask the electricians to give me some outlets installed higher up so I can hide the cables and whatnot. Also plan on routing some audio cables for multi-zone configurations between the garage and backyard
