Wheels (Alutec Grip in 16”) finally came off backorder, so I got them installed with the tires I salvaged from my 94 Accord (RIP) onto my cheap, high mileage SportWagen.
I’ll eventually do a full write-up on this car once it’s “finished“

Is that the stock windshield washer lid I see? 😂 And engine cover. It's surprising to see anything that's stock on your car.
Yeah that’s one part of the car I don’t care to do cosmetics to… unless you got a classic or a swap popping the hood on a modern car like this for a car show has zero appeal to me.

I’m at 3 year mark now…. Holding my breath
Year 4... right there with you but no sign of it struggling at all. Can I expect it to just quit one day or would there be a couple of struggling cold starts that would indicate it’s time?

Mine struggled to start once and the next morning it wouldn't start at all

I swapped in my track pads for Daytona on Friday, bled the brakes, rotated tires, changed oil, and bedded in the pads. 93 degs outside. I'm too old for this crap. Time to get AC in the garage.

Picked up some Marrakesh Brown S/SE seats for my Alltrack. Maybe in 2, 3 years I’ll use a bonus/tax return to get some Golf R buckets and re-upholster in color-matched brown leather, or similar.

My build is really coming together - and this is one of those BHAGs that I wasn’t sure I’d ever actually score. Not to mention the guy was also in the market for RSE10’s, which I had and was looking to sell in favor of some RSE05’s. So not only did I get the seats - I got paid for them + my RSE10’s with PSAS4’s.

Next up, selling my IS20 and putting that + the RSE10 money towards a new set of RSE05’s with DWS06+.
