Oh yeah, I should post my poo poo in here.

POSTER: literally a fish
VEHICLE: 2001 Subaru Liberty B4 (3rd gen AUDM Twin-Turbo 5sp manual Legacy. We call them Liberty here...)
GOAL: Currently road legality, future goal is 300 wheel horsepower on E85. A more vague goal is to give me a reason to get out of bed in the morning, which is working thus far.
DIFFICULTY: I already swapped the engine twice. The second time only took five hours. How hard can it be?
COSTS: Bought the car with a blown engine (spun rod bearing, driven with same until it wouldn't start) for $2800. New motor was $2250, with fluids and odds and ends i'm around $6k into the car. Going flex-fuel isn't going to be cheap, so we have nowhere to go but up :V

She's a lil' derpy, but we're going to have some fun. And probably toast a motor or two. :shepspends:
