Well I recently picked up a new toy to serve as my daily driver. It's a 2000 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS:

It's got a few small issues, but nothing major. I'll keep updating as parts start arriving, but for now that's about all there is to it! I signed up to do a winter auto-x on Jan 22nd with it up in NH which I'm really excited about.

haha thanks. I have a few tricks up my sleeve for both cars come next year
. Regardless, I am really looking forward to getting this thing out on the ice. It's been a blast to daily.
Update as it's been awhile.
Car still hasn't given me a single issue and I've been enjoying it everyday. Decided to lift the car for the winter, so installed some Forester XT struts/springs along with outback rear trailing arm brackets. Netted me about a 3" lift.
Part of the reason I lifted it was that I needed clearance for my ice racing tires, which I just finished building.
