We talk about his decades-long obsession with Subaru engineering, from rolling a Brat off jumps in Northern California just to see if it would break (it didn't), to building a full-blown rock crawler out of a 1991 Legacy wagon that's still street legal and drives way better than it should. Dan explains why the EJ22 might be the most bulletproof engine Subaru ever made, why old-school engineering is great, and what makes Subarus so endlessly modifiable. We get into everything from Toyota gearbox swaps to custom Bilstein shocks and even the wild story behind Subaru's 1989 endurance world record that still stands today. It's not just car talk though. Dan also opens up about his life off the wrench, overcoming serious injuries, learning to accept help, and how many lessons from the garage apply to everything else. This one's packed with stories, technical insight, and perspective from a guy who's lived the Subaru life for decades.
