April 28, 201510 yr Welcome! What's the list for the upgrades/modification? Good to see another lifted Ej series out there. I don't want to know how quickly you're going to eat through wheel bearings though with that width. Looks like the stance is pretty level though so the axles seems happy. Nice rig!
April 28, 201510 yr Author The List Stainless steel header & exhaust 10.5" lift 1.5" wheel spacers/adapters 3000# winch 42" led light bar Roof basket 15' CB whip w/grenade mount Hand held Cobra CB Cold air intake w/ K&N filter Onboard air w/tank in rear (quick connect) Semi-truck horn 30x9.50/R15 LT 104Q Joy!
April 28, 201510 yr Just curious, what does the 10.5" of lift consist of? Or is it just 10.5" of clearance?
April 29, 201510 yr Author It's 10.5" of genius. I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you. Mechanics orders.
April 29, 201510 yr Your Impreza looks Awesome! It's 10.5" of genius. I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you. Mechanics orders. Somehow that is Not the way a Club / Forum works, In my own Humble Opinion. But I respect your Choice. Kind Regards.
April 29, 201510 yr It's 10.5" of genius. I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you. Mechanics orders.Yeah ok. If it had 10.5" of lift, it wouldn't look like the other 2 lifted obs's with 6" of lift on here. Genius. As JesZek said, that's not really how this forum works. Don't be an rump roast.
April 29, 201510 yr Author He refuses to tell me either, and I had to do a " mechanic for life" agreement. Just one of those things.
April 30, 201510 yr It's just a lifted subaru, what's the big deal? It doesn't have a 10.5" lift though, it has more like a 6" lift and that's not top secret information, we've all been lifting subies for a long time bro.
April 30, 201510 yr Author Don't even care what you do. I have .40 shells on my valve stems, so I'm a happy girl.
April 30, 201510 yr That's true coma, I wouldn't go less than a 10k winch on these. Heck 3000 lbs is about what the car weighs as it sits let alone it stuck in mud or snow or whatever. What exactly are you looking to get out of being on this forum dragon? There is another member on here with almost that exact car in all black. Though I think he had a dual range tranny, I can't remember his name off the top of my head though.
April 30, 201510 yr It's 10.5" of genius. I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you. Mechanics orders. The shot of the undercarriage makes it seem like it's just crossmember lift blocks, strut toppers, etc. Not exactly rocket science. Many members here have done the same thing in their garages. It's a cool car with what looks like a reasonably well-built 10.5" lift, but it isn't NASA technology. He refuses to tell me either, and I had to do a " mechanic for life" agreement. Just one of those things. Refuses to tell you? Just look under the car...? And what if you see another mechanic? Is he going to come and uninstall your lift? Color me confused.
April 30, 201510 yr Oh crap. Someone leaked the secret to lifting a subaru. Now there's going to be a run on 1/4 inch steel tubing. Better stock up before it's gone! Just messing since all of us here are in the loop and it's common knowledge. We all know how to do it. Props for having a nice rig but it's just blocks and spacers. Not sure why your mechanic would try to be secretive about it. A google search will give anyone the answers to what he/she did. great for romping around. I drove a lifted impreza for years and am about a month away from lifting my 2000 Outback. Makes a lot of trails and destinations more accessible. Edited April 30, 201510 yr by AdventureSubaru
April 30, 201510 yr The bullet casings are a nice touch. Ryot is the twin car. He's down near L.A. and yeah, I think his is dual ranged. Same set up I think. 6 inch lift and big honkin wheel spacers. But there are a few others out there. WagonRyan had/has one that I think he took the lift off of. Monstaru built Stella and I think that car belongs to another member. Tron is selling the 6 inch lifted one that I think was built by scott/SJR

May 4, 201510 yr http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/131698-my-lifted-subi/ Here's the one I mentioned. But yeah, a handful of them out there. I'm looking forward to joining that height level soon. I miss being lifted.
May 5, 201510 yr Hello there to every one out there talking about my lift. I was only building a six inch lift to begin with. And yes einstien it is considered a ten and a half inch lift when you build 6.5 inch spacers for the top of your 2001 forester struts with kyb gr2S . On iT. And this is my third subaru i have built. Fully on my own without anykind of instructions. All my cars have all driven good.
May 5, 201510 yr ... And yes einstien it is considered a ten and a half inch lift when you build 6.5 inch spacers for the top of your 2001 forester struts with kyb gr2S... So, you are the Mechanic?
