Great video! I just got a Forester and you've given me some inspiration for how I can mod it a bit. thanks!
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
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.
Sarah, I own a 2019 Forester, keep the Gump videos coming, now to convince the wife I need these Mods.

CORNY 70's WAH-WAH P*** MUSIC STARTS
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.
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.
The inside door trim matching the console trim was cool.
Forester Gump is Awesome & DRL'S are life savers. The best way to stay safe on the road is to make yourself visable.
We just like hangin with you Sarah, doesnt matter which car. Theyre all interesting. Were car people!!
Styling and profiling!! Looking good!! Hope ya like it! Forester Love!! Thanks for the shout-out!! : D (I got those interior upgrade pieces off of Subispeed website if anyone is looking)
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!👍
I’m way behind, but gimme all the Gumpy content. It’s how I found your rad channel, and you’re dope! Keep it up!
Focus on one side before going to the other hand thread > torque > hand thread > torque. Keep the nuts in your hand or a magnet tray if your interested in doing it faster 😁
If I get a 2014+ Forester it'll be mod'ed with 2" lift kit with heavier duty coil springs and some bfgoodrich all terrain tires.
You had some good camera angles on this vid .. good job. 😉
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
loving the videos, finally someone who doesnt take them selves too seriously and has a laugh about it on the way
Thanks for posting.You have a nice Forester there.Like the style with white pearl body colour and black trim.A honest and cool video.
We the people love videos of ordinary cars - they're the cars we drive. Keep it up!
Wow thought went to heaven with sarah innuendo and then starts bouncing in the back to test it that was my xmas made. Your incredible sarah
lolololol
FYI for TaterTot. There's a new biz in your neck of the woods call AZ Dip and Detail. The color combos for dip (Pro-Line) are only limited by your imagination.
Almost forgot...facebook.com/DesertDip/
I am in no way involved with this company. Just like people being able to support their local biz.
I like the view of you standing behind Gump with your cutoffs on! dlight
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.
Yes, Sarah. Please more Forrester content!
Great video. Forester Gump isn't your average Subie, plus it's your car. Whatever video you post I'm going to watch. Even your TFL videos have very good content.
I'm a 20+ year independent Subaru mechanic. Granted I'm mostly a repair and maintenance guy but, I must say... I'm very impressed.
Those stiffener bars ought to make a big difference. As far as I'm concerned you can post anything you want it is always interesting.
How could four people not like this video? Oh well. Loved the video Sara!!!! Keep showing Gump!! I'm not much into Subaru but Gump is a nice looking ride. "I slapped myself hard....kinda liked it" That was so funny!!!!
Loved this video. There needs to be a forrester gump playlist. If there is I need to look at your CZcams page more carefully. Keep up the good work. 😎👍🏽
Seems like the usual difference when you upgrade from regular LEDs to SMDs. It will always be noticeable, so it's a good thing you changed both.
Nice job on your installs. I've always appreciated someone who keeps their vehicle meticulously maintained and clean.
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.
F. Gump looks fun to drive! I think all Subaru's are fun to drive! My friend she was in the Air Force FYI and she has a 2015 white BRZ and its a kick in the pant,s too drive!
Hi from Britain , Sarah you make me laugh and speaking as a guy myself and into mechanics and classic cars for years ,it's good to see a woman doing mechanics and detailing and look forward to seeing more videos soon . you are an inspiration. thank you.
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. ✊🏻
You have a way with words. Don't change! Daily drivers need love too. Anything to make the parts runs a little more enjoyable.
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.
"Because... Race Car!" Heck yeah! Track time = Fun time!
Back in ‘07 I was given a tour of Vermont SportsCars building. In one room there were literally piles of STi gearboxes. They’re out there
So many innuendos. Sarah just keeps getting funnier. Enjoy all the videos, irregardless of which vehicle you are working on. Always put a smile on my face. Keep up the good work.
Hi Sarah, would it be possible to show us how you connected the vires for the new Led Lights because I'm struggling soooooo much.... Thanks! And Big Up from 🇨🇭 🤩❤
Like your vids. Just watched you change the starter. Had to laugh when you were going through all the fault codes. I had several Corvettes , c1, c3 67 Chevelle SS and 70 Chevelle SS, 575hp on the 70. And what electronics did I need for them. A dwell meter and a timing light.
I also have a 2017 forester xt and your forester is the original reason I follow your channel thanks.
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!
The lights look a 100% better , Great video !!!
Turn Forrester Gump into a party-mobile - add interior color changing LED lights in the cargo area and improve the speakers!
Absolutely love the innuendos.
THe answer is NO . this is not too much FG , basically ,anything you film on any topic is fun and great to watch .full stop. :)
I’m planning on getting a Forester soon, so please keep these vids coming! 😊
I love the Forester Gump content, I have a 2015 Forester XT myself, but it's completely stock. Still love the car.
Great choice going with the white, it really brought out the engine bay. Forester Gump is a clean ride.
Tightens down on Forester Gump's nuts, makes him stiffer, they gives reach around. I swear that grille looks more like a grin now.
Oh, and you had to know it would take you longer to finish. :)
Sometimes I think that you aren't a human, but a robot... you never stop, honestly I'm impressed!
Another thing I like is your spontaneity, compared to other youtubers that look like staged.
Chrisfix is nothing in term of content from a certain point of view, I'm not saying that Chris videos are crap but they aren't addictive as yours IMHO.
Keep up the good stuff and take a break sometimes 😉
Subaru Builds are always welcomed!
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!
It's nice that all do you are so technical inclined, you steal know how to be a woman and care about your nails and what you wear. Bravo!
Good video, I have a couple of projects going on with my daily driver. I kind of slowed down on them but when I watch your video's like this one today it gives me inspiration to continue.
Hey Sarah, great video! have a wonderful week and keep the great videos coming! PHRASING!
My 2016 Forrester XT is tuned to 260hp / 328tq to wheels, sleeper 0-60 5sec, flat...I talk to a transmission place in NJ, LEVEL10 TRANSMISSIONS, They build cvt's for 500hp, & there cheeper than factory, they recomend changing fluid at 30k, and adding trans cooler to preserve factory trans...
Also mods 3" exhaust with free breathing cat and mufflers Invitia N 300's & cold air intake, (it runs like a scalded dog)...can't say how fast it goes either...Florida cops are hard on speeding lol... I call my Forrester (FESTER)
Hey I got to your channel because of Forester Gump and I have one myself 2009 that I used for rally recce
Spot on as always!
Wish you were in the UK! The world needs more woman like you! 😊😎❤
Thanks for your video Sarah !
I have scars all over my arms from plastic car trims at work.. They cut very easily also heat shielding around the exhaust is bad too..!
You could say Forester Gump is LIT!
One of the best project car names ever
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
Fun few hours spent! Nice work Sarah 🤘🏾😄🤘🏾
G/day Sarah, it's good to c a lady doing well and showing other ladies and fellows who also like fixing their vehicles up keep up the good work.🕺 Kelvin and Irene.😄😄😄
Innuendo heaven 😎😎
👀
1 Innuendo = 1 Drink
AmazingApeNZ
Be drunk pretty quick 😎😎😎
I'm somewhat at a loss for words
Love your Gump. Getting a black XT soon. Would love to do a few basic mods to mine too
Technically the strut tower brace was installed at 00:48, the hardware needed to install it tightly just wasn't in place yet, so you reached your goal the second time. Good Job !!! :)
There's something about a woman working on a car that is nice to see great job Sarah
75 seconds for Sarah = 2 hours shop time!
We'll. My Jeep is a mix between a Subaru and a Wrangler. Keep it coming !
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!
I think the 2015 legacy with 6 cyl engine has the same CVT as the WRX, I think. But they're not great as I had to have mine replaced at 62,000 miles, covered under warranty at least.
Oh ok. Well than maybe a DIY on how to clean intake valves. Just spit ballin. Love your channel. ❤️
I mean I don’t think I can find anyone I think I can just giggle at I swear Sarah has got a special glow I mean I can feel it. Trust me I don’t think Innuendos come easy like I saw it used to I mean I guess Sarah’s just got the innuendo bomb😂
It's the Sarah content not the Forester content that's important!
Sarah is EXACTLY the reason I crossed into the Blue!!!!
As someone who has a dad wagon.. please do more Forester videos. I'm totally gonna go order those sways.
Sarah, I am a great Forester Fan and so i can say, more of this super Videos👍👍
Wow that mid rib! I was talking about the car!
I really like the Forrester content as well as Teeter Tot and Mr Dos. I mod my daily as well, so sometimes it's nice to see that you don't have to have a racecar to love and appreciate working on one.
Great Video Sarah I think you need to get more plastic wrapped parts I think you unwrapping the back strut support brace was the best part of the video besides actually driving.
Big fan of - umm - video shorts... Good job Sarah - Forester G looks great with the new stiff'ners!
You crack me up. You didn't fail, everyone was watching in slow motion. :)
This has got to be the 5th time I've watched through your forester gump series... how do you not have more subs?! Haha
So many stills from this video to make an incredible calendar !!! Why not, Sarah? Come on... do it for your loving followers.
Bill Stevenson I’m not a model
The door handle changeouts look like pretty good matchups.
Hey... I practically lived in the Ace Cafe in London for a while!
More Forester Gump content is very welcome Sarah...
You will always be a winner in your viewers eyes🎉
2:10....yes, you DID mean it like that! It's okay. A woman who wrenches her own Subie....score, score, SCORE!!! You just made me and my '17 Outback subscribe!!
What brought me to your channel? The Forester !! I have a 2014 Forester with Pearl White. Just the normal 2.5 not the turbo.
Hi Sarah awesome channel! Lasthuman's Garage was the only one I knew of making Forester videos until I found your channel. He quit making them recently so yes, please make more Forester videos! Thanks!
Next time you want to change something fast.....Hold the nuts in your hand. ( No in your window meant) Putting the nuts down is extra steps. You can do this....
my virtual wife 😎 listining to your videos while driving every morning and evining to london is quite fun.
2015 STI 6-speed manual swap into Forrester Gump is what we are waiting for now
