Not many updates on my car itself, but a few fun stories to share.

1: We had a huge cleanout at work. We scrapped over 10 full size dumpsters (the long ones that are delivered by 18 wheelers). The rule has always been that as parts are scrapped you can grab items you want for personal use. The only thing not allowed is reselling (ie ebay). Our centrifuges have a 4' x 3' .125" thick aluminum back. about 75% of it is clean. No holes, no slots, nothing. I snagged a bunch of these to use for prototyping brackets. Score! I was running low and almost at the point of needing to buy material. Many dollars saved!

2: Two years ago I bought an 02 WRX with 184k miles for $3350. Did some maintenance work when I first got it, sold parts I didn't need, and swapped parts from my wrecked 06/818 donor as needed (trunk, coilovers, subframes). Friday I drove home from work and hit my driveway right at 200,000 miles. I parked it and never drove it again. Guy came last night to test drive it and left with it. Got 90% of my asking price and sold for $5400.
