Alright, time for updates…this guy has only changed the oil and that’s it for the past 73k miles, sooooo… I changed the nasty ass black-tared air filter NGK spark plugs Oil and filter - 5 qts. castrol synthetic with mobil 1 filter = $30 at advanced auto Rear diff fluid Cabin air filter - dam that was black too A/C + alternator belt PCV - will be done this weekend I need to change the front diff, tranny, brake and coolant as well, then all the maintainance will be complete. I also purchased a perrin uppipe and a GP moto air box delete elbow. And I ordered a brand new set of wheels from saab - one of my wheels is cracked causing it to lose air… :wtf im also trying to find a downpipe and possibly get a new perrin exhaust since they are on sale for $389… ---

Is this your daily driver/winter car? If so, put some nice snows on the new set of wheels, and some wide lipped wheels for the summer. Good ol’ **Saabaru.** Enjoy that spark plug change? ;D ---
