Subarus invade Silver Lake Sand Dunes
We met up with a couple of friends and fellow UA-cam people to see if our Subaru's could handle at the Silver Lake Sand Dunes in Mears, Michigan.
Granny had a lot of fun on test hill and we all enjoyed breaking stuff and getting our bumpers ripped off. It's definitely worth the trip if you know what you're doing and don't care about your paint.

    • @powerofyourbrains
      @powerofyourbrains 7 місяців тому

      The wiring changes year to year but the mechanism and differential itself is exactly the same, even in CVT models. This is why we don't give detailed instructions, but if you're comfortable with interpreting a wiring diagram this should be entirely the same general concept. This mod is only not possible with non-vtd manual transmissions such as the MT5, because they don't have a clutch pack.
