    That little Gerber multitool is the best! So easy to open with one hand keeps the tools locked.

    Love the 90s throwbacks and Gump references. Your videos are a lot of fun.

    These videos make me want to go out right now in the middle of the night and clean, detail and fix all the little broken things on my car. Thanks for sharing these videos. The attention to detail you pay and how deliberate you are with your builds is just inspiring. It's not all about slapping on an exhaust and some headers and going VROOOOM. Your MR2 series was even more inspiring in that regard

    Great video! I just got a Forester and you've given me some inspiration for how I can mod it a bit. thanks!

    As a fellow Subie owner I like to see the mods and the maintenace stuff you do, so it gives me ideas of what I can do to my Crosstrek. Thank you for what you do.

    Great video, Sarah. I like your choice of mods to do on the Subie. Very tasteful. Make sure to visit your P.O. Box before you leave this weekend. I sent you a box that's supposed to be delivered on Wednesday. Keep up the good work and safe travels.

    Early this year I purchased a blue 2017 Forester 2.0xt Touring, and that is the reason why I found & subscribed to your channel. More videos on Forester would be great, even if it's just you driving it around.

    Hay Sarah,, so forester gump is the reason I actually stumbled upon your channel maybe a year or so ago. You being you has kept me hooked to the channel. Being a ‘16 WRX owner I say definitely more forester content!👍

    @brentscott5359 6 лет назад

    Just a low tech tip you may use or not. I've found cutting plastic like that, a flat cutting tip on a soldering gun works really well. An electric knife also speeds up the process and is less likely to slip. Your Dremel could work as well but I will humbly defer to your expertise as you know way more about car stuff than I ever will.

  • @Thunderbyrd.

    Please keep the forester videos coming. I pick up my ‘14 white XT on Saturday & I have learnt so much about the model though your videos. Also looks like there isn’t much for tuning these in the UK so it’s really handy to see where you get parts from

    I've got a 2006 L.L. bean edition Forester named Sansa. She just hit 150k, and I've been having to fix one thing after another. (She was totaled at one point in her past) To the point, I temporarily broke up with her and started riding my Trek most places. That being said, I enjoyed this video. Would enjoy more content as most of what your doing is translateable to older models. I just had to replace her entire rear end, due to a saggy butt. It still sagged with new springs and struts. I was furious, I had to revert to spring spacers. It didn't feel good. But it no longer looks like I've got a big girl hog tied in my trunk. Thanks. You've made a Niche, and I like what you've done. Kudos to you from Eastern TN. ✊🏻

    @Todd66 5 лет назад +1

    Yes do more Forester content. Here’s why... Mods are mods and good content is good content. Your videos are fun and actually full of quality how to. You are fun and do a really good job on these videos. I”m a car guy and really enjoy watching how to videos but, like I said, I’m a guy so yeah I enjoy watching a woman do something rather than watching a man. LOL

  • @patrickzimmerli9032
    @patrickzimmerli9032 6 лет назад

    Watching you work on Forester Gump makes me truly miss my Subarus, especially my '02 WRX Sport Wagon.😔 It is a labor of love. Many, many late nights completing mods after getting the kiddos to bed. It was all worth it, as you can't really put a price tag on experience, but I digress. BTW, your energy level in this God is amazing! Glad to see you in a good mood and smiling. Anyway, keep up the good work, my friend! God Bless!

    @upfactoryracing4148 6 лет назад

    You need some awesome s turns to fell the difference. Yeah coilovers will complement those bars nicely. You got that in there without doing a hack job on interior panels which is rare for a rear strut bar. Great job!

    At first I was totally against any more mods to Forester Gump. But these mods are very reasonable. I have a 2017 3.6 R Outback and all I've done is add a towing hitch from etrailer and a K & N air filter.

    Rear ARB's are a little dangerous on wet/bumpy fast corners... another thing you can do is lower the fuel tank a few mm with spacers which lowers the CG at the back. huge difference.

    @viffer94 6 лет назад

    Super bummed Subie is dropping the XT. Hang onto Forester Gump, he’s pretty rare already and I would think he’s only going to appreciate as time goes by. The strut bar really helped stiffen up my old wrx, didn’t bother with the rear because it cut straight across the cargo bay. Nice tasteful mods, love it!

  • @Chicago_Cars

I enjoy all your content and I don't have any preferences for the topics you choose. It's all good! I've recently subscribed to your channel and plan on binge watching them all and look forward to watching your next episode. Is there a "rhythm" to how often you post content?

    Great video! Makes me miss the days of working on my car and all the cool things with it.
    Maybe if you put a bungee cord from the seat flaps to the brace if you notice it collapsing when you put the seat down. I'd get annoyed by it...not sure if you're the same way.
    Coilovers and corner balancing will definitely give better handling and feedback.
