The car is about 5 days out from being "able" to drive on the street. that being said, there are a lot of little things that still need to be installed. The Terratrip rally computer and communication system are still in boxes. The steering wheel extender is in a box in the back seat. The seats are sitting on the ground outside of the car. Rear wheel spacers need to be installed and the chasis stillneeds to be weighted and set up. Lastly, softer street biased brake pads need to be installed. Once all this is done, we are going to go canyon carving with some other subaru/evo friends around southern cali doing our best to not be pulled over and have to answer some difficult questions about straight exhausts (literally just a 3 inch pipe from the turbo to the back of the car) and rollcages. I am pretty sure the only thing street legal about this car are the tires. Those I even would not recomend in the wet (not to worry, Mark promised me that he and Jen would do anti raindances every sunrise for the next two weeks, actually rain would be beneficial to our AWD subaru). Once that has been completed the car will go back under the knife for fine tuning and then out to the track for some high speed testing. hopefully by then the car will be completely sorted. Of course, we will have no choice becuase we leave a few days after that for Mexico...
