"2014 Forester XT Touring"

 

Blacked out the chrome, had the 18 inch wheels powder coated and painted the skid plate. Anyone have sugestions to change the look of the chrome oval badge?

Welcome!

 

That Subaru Impreza Coupe looks Awesome!

 

What happened to it?

 Sadly I moved from CT to WA state and it became a total loss motor wise (mis firing on 3 out of 4 cyls after the first rebuild) it just went down hill- couldnt afford to replace the motor nor ship it out west so i had to cut my losses and sell her :/ I will get a new on for sure in the next 1-2 years tho! just putting money aside everymonth and trying not to splurge and go crazy on my hatch <.<

My first post in the newer generation forum!! Never thought I'd post in here, but a couple days ago I bought a 1993 Impreza L. Drove 600 miles (round trip) to get it. Drove 11 hours for a $300 car. But man, what a deal. She runs and drives, rust-free, clean, and straight. Previous owner lost the title, but I am going to try and get it registered and it'll be my parts-getter car. Was originally going to take the EJ18 from this and put it in my Loyale, but I really like the way this drives. The radiator needs to be replaced, so I'm doing that next week along with the hoses and cap. Pulled the plugs, and they look beautiful. Not burning oil or coolant or gas. Did a compression test, and got about 145, 135, 130, 100. So it could benefit from a rebuild, but I'll do that later. Going to do the timing belt, water pump, plugs, wires, and serpentine belts soon. Oil change too.

 

Came with a handful of receipts from different shops. Tires are less than a year old, radiator was replaced in 2012, front-end crash was fixed in 2011, transmission fluid was flushed 15,000 miles ago. Also has had exhaust work, cooling system work, and some other things within the past 3 years. Oh, and the A/C works amazingly well! From what I can tell, it's still R12, but it blows ice cold.

 

Again, runs good, drives good, shifts good, stops well. I think I got a great deal! Anyways, here are some pictures:

Litterally picked her up yesterday in Spokane, WA.  The interior is amazing for an '02.  The guy I get her from seems to have been pretty anal about keeping her clean and well maintained.  173,000 miles and going strong!

Few months back I replaced my 1999 Impreza (1.6 lpg) to a 10 year newer and bigger 2.5 Outback, also LPG converted, all options and red leather special for the 20th year of Legacy/Outback in Europe.

Outside looks clean, engine bay must be cleaned as well, and there is a minor oil leak somewhere (but, with the exception of my 1.6, all other subarus we have had leaked oil somewhere).

That red leather would look awesome in my Forester! I'll move that to the top of the list of mods I'd like to make but never will.

The previous owner said there only 20 in The Netherlands in red leather as an anniversary edition (5x aut, 5x mt, 5x 3.0L and 5x diesel outback).

A month or so ago, I had slapped a quick coat of paint on my Mudrat bumpers, in an attempt to keep the salt off of them over the winter. I'm hoping to get them sandblasted and either POR-15/Rustoleum'd or powdercoated come spring/summer.

 

I also found replacements for the missing bumper cladding on the rear corners. It's not perfect, but she looks a lot better than she did before.
