Early this morning encountered I a traffic accident in my BC7 SUBARU Legacy LSi US model. TOYOTA Crown Athlete could not stop just behind of me.
Treatment of my cervical bone, accident proof by police, car repair estimate by SUBARU dealer and the communication contacts with the insurance company have just over before long.
Accident in any fields have increased in number at the end of the year. Anyway, the best care must be taken everywhere, because anything can happen at any time.
I had ever done the same about 15 years ago, so this accident is the secondary one. As a proverb says the same thing might happen as the third one? Is it a time for giving up this car?

Because my son pointed out the poor ride on rear passenger's seat of BC7 SUBARU Legacy LSi US model last time, I have a planning to replace rear suspension into another setting, putting back the original suspension coil springs with harder shock absorbers or another combinations, all the parts would be applied under the condition of the use of not third parties but genuine parts only. I would be at a loss what to choose, because there are many combinations at all. All the suspension arm bushes should be loosened all together and re-tightened at Zero gravity condition. The strut upper mounts especially for the rear axle should be deformable enough to consume the shock from the ground, involving some barrier of particularity, tapered suspension springs applied only for initial model of BC7, so different rear strut upper mount is set for initial production model. If no stock in maker's parts depot, some adequate rear spring rate should be applied because of the compatibility.
Lower arm lever ratio has been changed in order to make use of the deformability of the trailing arm hinge compliance bush contributing comfortable ride. So some harder spring is used intentionally for recent SUBARU models. But remember here that too much application of compliance here invites sometimes unpleasant rickety feeling leading to anxiety, lack of stability in short. Anyway, change of suspension components would make it different one as I did several years ago. I did it from comfort American design to sporty European on, now I do the opposite. Just trying on a whim is easy for everyone, but it would be difficult to establish and finish the work is above words, because what I'm going to do is nothing but a professional's work like an engineers in some researching and developing division of an automobile production company. As I'm keeping several parts for the trials in my villa so I'll do it in very near future.

YaHoo auction exhibited a memorial Leitz lens, Macro-Elmarit R 60/2,8 last night in MINT condition. Though close up exposure designed as it is, some extraordinary fantastic perspective is produced when used as a standard lens. An unforgettable memories while silver salt film period obliged me to push a bid button without any hesitation immediately after coming across to it. Leica-R to Canon EOS adapter device would establish a compatibility as usual. Pictures taken by this ultimate lens would appear next week.
