Feature: 1999 Subaru STI Version 5

As my first post here, I thought I might as well introduce myself and my JDM Subaru.

I first got into japanese cars when I sold my truck and got an old 1987 Toyota Celica from my Dad to commute to work. It was amazing how fun that car was on the turns, and even on the gravel roads and hills. Right at the same time, the 2002 WRX’s started showing up in dealers and I knew I had to get a hold of one of these. I bought a ‘02 WRX Wagon and have been a certified subaru fanatic since then. I am now on my 5th Subaru, and the first one that is pretty unique due to being a JDM car.

Dry your car quick

Here’s a quick tip, to dry your car quickly after a wash simply use the nozzle of the hose, turn your pressure to about half mass and run a sheet of water over your car. Water has the uncanny ability to stick to itself like magic! Wait there’s science behind that, something to do with polarity etc… The water will literally pull itself off of you car! Go ahead try it if you don’t believe me!

Tales From The DMV

I found myself at the mercy of a police officer the other day for a no front plate violation in the State Of Oregon. Since it’s spring break around here I gather that he assumed I was a teen and figured it’d be an easy ticket. Once the officer made it to my window he realized that I’m not a teen at all! Just a run of the mill car enthusiast. At this point he demeanor had changed and he wrote me a fix-a-ticket for my front plate. However; it appeared my drivers license had expired, he could have written me for that or just had my car towed right there, instead he just put down 2009 for my license expiration and let me be on my way. One of the nicest officers I’ve ever dealt with.
