Never apologize for your videos. You never clickbait, draw videos out, or any of the shenanigans other channels do. Just straight content backed by some OCD and an amazing work ethic. THIS CHANNEL SETS THE STANDARD FOR CREATOR QUALITY. Keep up the awesome work and THANK YOU for sharing it.

I'm not disappointed with the content. I appreciate the time you spend doing your projects, filming it, editing it, etc. 👍

One woman show with a cameo appearance form Charlie.

A full dozen cookies for the Regamasters! Perfect choice on the decals. I never thought a Subie could look so cool!

Thank you Ms. Sarah for your service and your videos. Stay safe!

The pneumatic bleeders are where it's at. Makes life so easy and does such a thorough job.

Sarah, I love the fact that you have a Subaru Forester, and you take such pride in your vehicle. Enjoying your videos. Take care.

[@johnceragioli9671]

Can’t wait to see Forester Gump with his flares on, and the wheels are beautiful!

[@ross7684]

Gump looks fantastic! Looking forward to see the Focus come together now. Another great vid, Sarah

[@alrestauro]

Awesome conversion job on the Forrester and a big "WOW" the Focus! I can't wait to what's next for the Focus!

[@dihskursiv]

Sarah, you are incredible. Pretty, smart, funny and entertaining. Most of all I appreciate your indomitable spirit. I learn something from every video you produce. That's saying a lot when you consider your probably half my age. I hope you get everything you want in life. Thanks for the videos!

[@RFXLR]

Your OCD is on point! If anyone questions your commitment to keeping your vehicles running and looking good, this is the case study file you can present to them. Great job and Mr Gump looks like it rolled off the showroom floor. 👍🏼

[@jameslongobardo274]

It's always a lot of fun to watch your videos Sarah Keep up the fantastic work Stay safe!!

Great, a twofer. Gump and the Focus. Snow tires, what a great budget idea.

[@mrwest5552]

Thank You Sarah and FabriCobbler 👍

[@briana8332]

Another informative update 👍🏼 I think one of the coolest things about your job/work/channel, is that you get to wear comfortable, casual clothing every day. I totally envy that!!

[@69fcortina]

Near "golden hour" for your roadside video. Nice warm colors, no shadows. And yes, evening is when a ton of people walk. Best time of the day!

[@johnellis6959]

Well done Sarah, Gump looks great! I’m looking forward to all the Focus content. 👊

[@rolexr]

Now the Forester look so good! And the dampers, brakes and wheels are really great!

FORESTER TO FOCUS!!! AWSOME!!! Good content, and a tease whats to come on the focus.

OH, the suspense build up as you were popping the nipple cap. I had to back it up just to make sure I was hearing that music you added in. I love your editing skills!

[@brianchong4134]

I am three or four videos behind, but this thumbnail had me at hello! Those wheels look perfect. Subtle and agressive. Love it! Can't wait to get caught up. Cheers!

I have that same torque wrench! So glad you got sponsored by GearWrench, I really like their stuff.

" I gotta torqupine these wheels " 🤣

[@funnlivinit]

FYI Sarah, I run Blizzaks all year round. I live near Carson City NV. So it gets hot here too. I've found that the tires still last 40,000 miles. Just as long as the OEM tires. For about 1/2 the cost.

[@botellon25]

Step by step, every mod you made to the FXT is really well done and clean. One of the cleanest Forester on KZbin with funcional mods. 👍🏻

[@BayouBricks]

I’m glad you got it finished and you’re happy with it. I’ll be honest, I’m not a fan of the wheels myself but it’s not my car. But the rest of the car is badass. Looking forward to the Focus content!

[@michaelstorm7552]

Although I am an old-school kind of guy I love of how you work on cars nothing is overlooked or just good enough you demand Perfection and cleanliness that rates very high in my book

Great Video Sarah, cant wait to see the rally suspension 😁 love your videos!

[@Gene1969]

If anyone was interested, the unsprung weight that Gump lost is 2 stone. You're welcome. 😉 I love the rims Sarah, but does this mean you won't be driving Gump in the desert to watch the sunset anymore?

[@twystedhumour]

and Sarah did affirm on another video that all stones in UK are 14 lbs...

[@sporttruck5103]

Forester Gumb’s new brakes and rims with new wide tires look really awesome. Definitely a good upgrade. Of those rally winter tires ... I don't think they'll last the Arizona heat for very long. Here, where we have to drive on winter tires in winter, they are changed in spring as soon as the weather warms up. They melt even though there is half the heat here. Of course we also have pins in them. The winter tire is also bad in the rain, it’s really slippery, though it rains a bit in Arizona. Anyway, your projects are really nice to follow, I wish you all the best for you and your projects.

[@SarahnTuned]

This is not a road car that will be driven on asphalt.

[@cmar4076]

Gump looks awesome Sarah! Nice work 😊

[@morethanaveragejoe8224]

I laugh every time Sarah cracks herself up with one of her accidental innuendos. Lol.

[@richardhobbs9038]

- ' accidental ' . . . . . . ? ?

[@twystedhumour]

@@richardhobbs9038 Sarah's quite "blurt-y" in that regard, so yes, accidental.

[@amigatommy7]

The board for notes is an excellent idea.

[@scottjua]

Yeah boiiii that Forester rules

[@ChewMhojadee]

I don't offroad my scooby but I kept the rally-armors on anyway. I noticed that its the first car I've ever owned without any little dings or scratches from road garbage being kicked up along the side of the car, especially along the lower front doors.

[@Breiten34]

Cool new setup for Gump. 🤙🏻

[@applesplayhouse3406]

Hi there, I’ve been watching your videos for about a year now and have really enjoyed them, thank you for keeping up with constant footage and enjoyable content as it helps entertain myself and distract myself from pain and life. Love the innuendo’s aswell. Keep up the awesome work from an Aussie cripple Ps, you’re very pretty and remember a smile is contagious :)

[@darksideemt]

Looks awesome Sarah!

[@mc26275]

The best collection of project cars on KZbin right now.

[@Sereno44]

That Forester 2015 is in better shape than one 2020... you did an extraordinary job on that car!!! Just see the wheels, suspension, the golden brakes, with special disks ... Just impressed!!! When you changed the brake fluid, I said to myself when was the last time I change it in my Kia Rio 2014... You are skinny and beautiful, but mostly very strong in mounting those wheels.

[@XIIIofdarkness62]

I'm going to be sti swapping my 2019 forester sport and I'm so taking notes from you thank you

[@brianfoisy9818]

Watch out when running the winter tires in the rain, as u will notice that your stopping distance can increase by upto 50%. Keep up the good work. Cheers

..its an off-road rally car, so, Lol, Thanks though! haha

[@_J_U_S_T_I_N_]

The forester looks awesome!!! I kinda wanna know what it would look like if you slammed it on those coilovers. I think going with the minimalist approach on the decals was the right move. Great job Sarah!

[@LA6UOA]

Beautiful! Job well done!!

[@kintamasan]

I absolutely love your videos!

[@sjhanson1690]

I must admit, Gump looks pretty darn good Sarah. Just try not to bed those old shoes into the new rotors or you'll have to turn the rotors to prevent glazing. So brake lightly without heating them up. Before I retired (I was an engine machinist) we used to actually turn brand new rotors for people because they were always off from sitting and shipping etc. It's like you never buy a new bare cylinder head and just throw new valves in it without cutting the seats. They are never ready to assemble no matter what they say. Anyway, when you do get the new brake pads installed, then you do wanna go out and 'bed' the brakes in.

[@hawkinsjd11]

Love the look of those wheels. fresh.

[@SpaceEngineerErich]

The Forrester is a vehicle I never gave a second thought too, but dayum. Your Forrester is the shit! Great work!

[@MS-hd8yq]

[@modesty4senate]

If you want to test run the transmission swap to spare Gump any trials/tribulations, I would like to volunteer Craig, my stage 1 2017 XT/tS clone, as he's at 68k miles and I'm pretty sure the CVT is going to explode every time I drive him. This brake content has been amazing as wheels [impossible] and brakes are all that's left on my cloning project! Thank you for this!!

[@BraveMon23]

Your sense of gettin' every thing as perfect as you could do is awesome....I admire your determination of doing the things like that. The wheels look great!! And your eyes when you make the jokes are kind of beautiful-spicy.....
