I'm taking my team out to a Brazilian steakhouse tonight. RIP my wallet 😭
It's out of pocket for you? No company card? Bruh, you're too nice to your colleagues, what weird favors are you trying to get out of them?
Get with the program lol, expense that ho.

If Jay takes you out to dinner, he expects some good loving afterwards. My ass is still sore from the time he took me to taco bell.

Correction: The EJ was garbage.
I did unspeakable things to my EJ205. Tuned it myself, had no idea what I was doing and ran stupid amounts of boost. Didn't so much as burn a drop of oil. EJ257 in the 05 was stg 2 most of its life. Never a single issue. EJ257 in the 08 ringlands broke 3 times. Once stock, once with a conservative stg1 custom track tune from a good tuner that was considered the best Subaru tuner in the SE, again stg 2 same tuner. I rebuilt the engine with forged internals. Started to burn oil 6 months later, I traded in and bought a 911.

You guys are messed up. It was the Taco Bell that made my ass sore. I couldn't even feel Jay.

Did someone say Fit. Absolutely the most fun going 40mph with pedal to the floor.

AFAIK, the 2.0's were more reliable then the 2.5
The legend Mike Kojima does a solid in depth breakdown of the faults of the EJ motor in many videos and how to address them.
The FA motor in comparison is so much better

On one of the driving roads I hit on the regular I always see two Honda Fit absolutely blasting down the road.

I've never been in a chase position with them but I feel like I'd struggle to match their pace.

Or crash trying.
