Show Notes
There was a time in the early 2000's where Subaru Forums were the place to go to find information, parts, or to connect with the Subaru community in your area.There were a number of local forums but the central hub for many of us was NASIOC. The North American Subaru Impreza Owners Clubhttps://forums.nasioc.com/This was at one point the largest Subaru forum, and had tens of thousands of members from all over the globe. It was, and still is to an extent, a critical source for information about how to build or fix your Subaru.At some point though, people just stopped using forums. For this episode, we talk with Justin from Overtake USA, and the legendary Unabomber (one of the most prolific contributors to NASIOC) about what happened to forums with the rise of Social Media.Are we in a better place now than we used to be? A big thanks to Justin for putting this together, and definitely let us know what you think about this in the comments below.Thanks for watching and Stay Tuned!

For Episode 216 of the Podcast, Dewey, Art, Tanner, and Jon all sit down to talk about the Japan Mobility Show news...At least that was the plan.But the show was run differently this year, and there was no News to discuss, so we decided to Pivot and talk about Driving.Dewey is just back from driving at Tail of the Dragon, and he had a blast in his STI swapped GD WRX.Cars are built and designed to be driven, and we ended up having a great discussion about why it is so good to just get out there and drive your car.Hope you enjoy this episode.Thanks for watching and Stay Tuned!
If you own a car, it is pretty much a given that at some point you will need to take it to a shop to get some kind of work done.It could be that you just need to get your oil changed, or a new set of tires put on.But if you have a car that you have started to modify, or you are looking to start a build on your car, there is a good chance that you will need to find an experienced shop to help you along the path with your build for anything from installs, fabrication, set-up, tuning, etc.For this conversation, we sit down with Dan from Mach V Motorsports and Tony from Turn in Concepts to talk about the best practices to find a shop to work with.What is the best way to initially reach out?What kinds of questions should you ask?How important is budget?What if you have a problem you can't figure out?We get into all of these questions and more.Thanks for watching and Stay Tuned!
What happens when NASIOC goes down and doesn't come back?What about these new WRX and BRZ Anniversary editions?We had a plan for this episode of the podcast, but when NASIOC went down at the beginning of the week, and with all the discussion about the Limited Edition WRX and BRZ from Boxer Fest, that plan was pretty much thrown out the window.I'll also mention that Dewey was at the IAG Mother Ship for this episode, so his audio had a few glitches, and there wasn't anything that we could do to fix it in the edit. This was a great conversation and I hope you enjoy it.Thanks for watching and Stay Tuned!
Ever since we saw the three new Manual cars that Subaru said they were developing a few months ago, we have all had questions.
Rally Colorado was a couple of months ago now, and we had a rare opportunity at this event.
