In this episode of Dirtcheapdaily, Matt, Aaron, and Paul put a new timing belt and radiator in the Soggy Fozzy and then take it out on a frozen lake to test out its drifting capabilities! Music by: Joakim Karud

heck yeah, best episode ever! so stoked, looked like a ton of fun. "Lets go to the lake" has a whole new meaning. Thats like $7000 car for under $2k, unheard of

Gotta say WOW! To bring a car that was so severely flooded back to life is almost mind boggling. Tip for the trans, break down and take it to a shop that offers a T-Tech service, it replaces ALL of the old trans fluid with new, even the TC.

I dig the content. Contemplated doing a flood car before, just seemed like a cumbersome task to re-do it all. Love what youve done and look forward to the updates!

Good stuff guys! Love the forester XT. I think you guys should make it a sleeper Forester STI next. I have a 2004 XT automatic and put a VF39 turbo, STI intercooler and COBB downpipe on it. Left the exhuast from the downpipe back stock for a super sleeper look and feel and it's been an absolute blast and is surprisingly fast. It snowed recently here in Seattle and has been a ton of fun.

subarus actually don't have a harmonic balancer, that pulley has no dampening capabilities (there is a writeup on nasioc) that pulley has the very important job of holding the crankshaft sprocket on the crankshaft before i had a garage to do bigger jobs on vehicles, i took my 99 outback (5-spd) to a mechanic because the front pulley had a wobble, they replaced the pulley but neglected to properly tighten it! it came off and destroyed the sprocket and the brand new pulley....bought a racing front pulley and a new sprocket and timing belt.........it lasted 10,000 miles before the engine spun a bearing

Just found your channel, whats your thoughts on these Subaru's? I see them really cheap on craigslist all the time, 9 out of 10 times the transmissions are bad, but I was curious about getting one.

+nikond90 we're using the factory service manual. If you google it you'll find a couple forums with a link to the site you can download them from.

what they are doing is basically locking the center diff if you want a real 50/50 torque bias look for a 04 forester LL bean edition and grab its TCU...

It needs more power, a bigger turbo, maybe a supercharger conversion would be good to see done.
@christianbuczko14816 жыл бұрын
Before you do too much like that, I think it would be a good idea to underseal it, and get some corrosion protect especially driving in icy conditions. Salt will kill it otherwise.

It tightens itself over time when the engine runs, but should still be properly torqued.
