@@sixgundave Thank you

It appears I won by the 60ft line

@@KingofRoad_ yes you may - Spearfish, South Dakota

@@sixgundave Thank you

@@wisewayss sure 👍

@@sixgundave Thank you!

I agree but that's South Dakota for ya.. no emissions testing here (yet)

Don't worry it's only a carcinogen if you're in California

@@RRBDDrivingSchool sure!

@@sixgundave thank you

@@stoptaxingme it was something straight out of a cartoon ha

Appreciate you checking it out

Really these machines aren't too high maintenance at all. This is set up at a car dealership, the bearings at each wheel and brush arm just need a few squirts of a marine-grade grease applied by a grease gun found at any auto parts store. My particular machine has a total of 24 bearings that take no more than 20-30 minutes to service, once or twice a month. Basically all one needs to do. Whether it's worth a service tech to come by and grease it is more up to you, but it's definitely quick and simple. I do keep spare hose and water valves around to minimize down time too, because yeah one can get the occasional leak sprung here and there.

I wish I would have shown the magnet install, but what I did was take one magnet to the local hardware store, and found some small brass screws and nuts (or nylon, some non-magnetic style) that would fit flush with the magnet hole, and only long enough to fasten with a nut on the backside of the skirt's mounting points. Some info is added in my description for this vid, and be a good idea to watch my follow-up video for this as well.

Yeah had heck of a time with those cans, but never used these two-part ones before this project. Whether the hardener mixed in or not, they laid down evenly and had fantastic gloss once cured

I appreciate you checking it out 👍

There's a few sellers on ebay, but I had purchased mine from a website called k&j magnetics. You need a total of 16 if I remember, but I would get at least 20 as they are brittle if they slam against a surface too hard.. Either in N42 or N52 strength.

Since you have manual I'd still recommend 3.73. Those wake it up quite a bit in itself. RPMs at 80mph will be 2700 with them, versus about 2300 stock, reducing your fuel mileage quite a bit. If you're still on stock rear end (7.5 inch), it also has open differential. You would also benefit much from putting in a Traction-Lok differential as well so you'd then have two wheels being driven instead of one.

@@sixgundave not too worried about mpgs it is a mustang after all lol and yea im putting the gears into an 8.8 rear end that im swapping in with a new driveshaft so got the lsd covered. Just didnt wanna buy 3.73s and regret it after alls said and done

@@Lord_McCrank Ah very good. Having an 8.8 also opens you up to a 3.90 ratio as well if you want to split the difference. I had 4.10 before, back when I did the trans swap, and discovered that my stock driveshaft wasn't balanced for those higher speeds it would need to turn. Bad vibrations and noise beyond 70mph. Swapped to a Ford Performance aluminum driveshaft for (if I remember) a 94-95 GT.

@@sixgundave would you say the 4.10 is a bit too much gear for the stock T5? i appreciate the responses btw trying to pick people’s brains on the forums usually ends up in “just buy a v8” lol

@@sixgundave yea thats the same driveshaft i plan on upgrading to

Back when I got that, there was a company called vapauto.com (doesn't exist anymore). It came with that 96-ish Windstar intake and a modified GT throttle body, and a bracket to relocate the coil pack. Could use stock throttle body with good results. The kinda bummer thing is one needs to modify the EGR system - you can use the stock valve itself, but need those years of Windstar's EGR tube to bolt it to (the part that joins the EGR valve to intake manifold), plus you'd have to cut the metal EGR tube that goes from the passenger exhaust manifold to EGR valve, and extend said tube with a piece of 5/8" I.D. high temp silicone tube. Hope that helps. Or, one could get block-off plates for EGR and delete the system completely, which would also require a tune.

@@sixgundave will you be at Sturgis mustang rally this year

@@chadkremer3050 Yeah I better go, I haven't missed a single one yet

@@sixgundave our first year was last year, I had so much fun, I just had the show pass , this year I want to do rodeo and autocross, I'm building a super stallion clone

Yeah race package you would need, it definitely worth the extra cost. Only thing is, the Sturgis drag strip may not be open as the previous folks who ran it chose not to renew their lease. Indefinitely shut down unless someone picks up the tab and opens the place back up. But all other race events will go on. Your build sounds pretty sweet

Yes it sees in town and highway just the same, all is great after about two years. Even though I have a small gap between thr moldings and the body as shown in this vid, there is no noise from any molding movement on bumps, nor wind noise/whistling at speed. All has been great with them. Still recommended as an alternative to drilling holes definitely 👌

@sixgundave thank you for getting back to me. It seems like your the only person who thought of this. I will definitely be trying this method and I think I'll try some small fender flare gasket to account for the gapping. Thanks again for posting this

@@Mhbultz Right on, appreciate you checking the vids out

I have part numbers listed below timestamps in description on this vid, if that was meant to be a question 🤔 th-cam.com/video/8f_srWeXrJ0/w-d-xo.html

I think there is a red kit, but the one I found was for the previous body Impreza (2016 and older). I wonder if someone aftermarket or otherwise has the LEDs themselves in different colors one could swap out

I appreciate that! & thanks for checking out the vid.

This is at a car dealer in western South Dakota

@@sixgundave OK. Thank you!

@@sixgundave what town is it in?

Thanks a lot, really appreciate you checking it out. Had that thing looonnnng time

No rinse aid was used on this particular wash so I could show the properties of the pickup's ceramic coat in itself. But I do use either a Ryko or NCS-labeled drying agent I can't recall the name of yet ha

It's NCS-labeled Wax Luster that is used on this machine. I don't use any other conditioners beside that one, if I use it at all (some of my wash options have the rinse aid option disabled).

I appreciate you checking these out. Not often do I have time to post these vids but keep an eye out once in a while

Ha, by that time... 'twas toooo late

Excellent platform to mod, even if one doesn't mod the engine internals.

That's great news & really appreciate you checking the vid out & glad it was helpful!

Exactly the point I was making. As the technician of this machine since 2007, I can afford to demonstrate what happens anyway.

Thanks & appreciate you watching! Those are a factory 2016 Subaru Crosstrek wheel - they are the same specs as the stock Impreza wheels (if it came with 17s). They're a 17x7 wheel and would use a 205/50R17 tire size.

Thanks for the reply! I assume you’re on the stock suspension?

@@adambenjamin3055 Suspension is stock. Likely won't lower it - with the exception of IF I wind up moving to 18" wheels.

Those are an SVE-brand model, called NVX. They look good in a bronze they come in too

Yes go for it 👍

Это тексты песен?

@@sixgundave Id love to say my own poem, but no😊

I understood what you said perfectly 👌 & you are right. One of those things I relaize to do, but when I am out there and in-the-moment, my brain gets scrambled 😅 It was a combination of that, plus my understeer I was dealing with that I didn't yet tune for. I appreciate your advice and thanks for checking the vid out

@@sixgundave yeah, heat of the moment and all adrenaline rush makes you forget the basics but you'll get there 🤘and honestly, those technical kind of track are not easy to maneuver around, especially with power steering on older cars

The engine is the base 3.8L with a Windstar minivan intake manifold and some loud Borlas. Everything underneath the car suspension-wise is aftermarket & set up just for autocrossing. It's a great time!

Ha that was an eBay find!

Something I never thought about. Perhaps that was an add-on option for these machines. I bet it wouldn't be hard to plumb one in either.

It's been so long, I don't know anymore. But. It appears it is still widely available at many places online 👍 Thanks for having a peek at the vid btw

Well so far, I haven't heard any gearbox or unusual motor noise at any of the wheels on this machine. Been maintaining it since new in 2007. Depending on the noise and speed or pitch of it, could be several things, e.g. the internal bearings in the motor itself (sealed units far as I know but could still get moisture in over time), or tooth damage to the gears in gearbox, or wheel bearings. Wheel bearings are the one main maintenance item of the three, abd perhaps they weren't getting lubed enough. Of all the bearings to lube on the machine, those ones for the wheels are by far most important to keep on top of. Buzzing noise.. 🤷‍♂️ heck maybe a motor was about to burn up. They see a lot of action and do the most heavy lifting on the whole machine.

@@sixgundave I found a perfect video of the sound actually! th-cam.com/video/tC_emArIMmk/w-d-xo.html Definitely has to be the wheels though, but I'm no tech, haha! Thanks for the information though!

@@CarwashReviewsFlorida gosh all I hear before the brush cycle is the pulsations from the high pressure dirt blasters up at window level, and the rotation of the rocker blaster that is at the bottom section of the vehicle out of view. I just know it makes less noises that shouldn't be there than the one I maintain. Ha

Those are factory wheels off a 2016 Subaru Crosstrek. 17x7 inch, +48mm offset, 5x100mm lug pattern

I'VE BEEN GOING TO CAR SHOWS FOR YEARS AND I HAVE SOME PRETTY SWEET EXPENSIVE CARS ESPECIALLY MY SUPER SNAKES AND I HAVE NEVER PUT A SIGN ON MY CARS FOR TOO TELL PEOPLE NOT TOO TOUCH LOL IT'S COMMEN SENCE I HIGHLY DOUBT ANYONE WOULD LAY A FINGER ON MY SUPER SNAKES AND MY GT500 AND MY 93 COBRA AND MY TERMINATOR LOL YOU GET THE POINT.

The front piece requires drilling holes and using hardware. baysonr.com/products/st-style-front-lip-for-2017-2019-subaru-impreza

A situation like that seems related to a photo eye that sits between the wheels of the machine, it reads position of the vehicle wheels... or something? I just know when they're dirty that causes issues with not reading the overall length of the vehicle correctly.

I have a link in my follow-up video to this one (in description) th-cam.com/video/R9vrqJ71RqQ/w-d-xo.html
