November 3, 200520 yr Author Nothing stupid about it It will probably help someone else as well! Every member (to my knowledge) can create a photo gallery that is hosted here on the USMB. The pictures can only be posted here, which is probably not an issue for most people. Under your "Private Messages" link, you will see the photo gallery link in the USMB toolbar. Click it, then click "upload photos", and the rest should be fairly obvious. Good luck with it
November 3, 200520 yr you right click on the pic, then click copy, then post and paste it into the post heres one of your pics
November 3, 200520 yr something like this Thank you ..... just its the prettiest sooby i ever had and want to share. For some reason i can build puters and graphic programs tend to stump me. nipper
November 3, 200520 yr Everyone's pictures are great, but I think Subie Gal wins. Here's mine: This is before I put on the Pugs: ...and there are a couple others in the gallery Nice wagon!
November 3, 200520 yr gonna raise the bar here. This is the wagon I just traded a few months back...it was one of those things "I wanted it but should have never bought it" type of deals. (05 OBS SE)
November 3, 200520 yr (pic taken 2 years ago) that gives me an idea,gotta get me a pic of my beretta 9mm an bert together. soobmater,don't think that i'm busting on ya.
November 3, 200520 yr Seb, we're almost twins! Is that a 2001? It looks great Indeed. It is a 2000... The front bumber might not be the "original" 2000 style as I had an encounter with a deer about a year ago and the front was completely redone. I like the look of yours with those lights on the front :cool: Seb
November 3, 200520 yr Nice wagon! Thanks! It's stock except for the Pugs and lights. Unfortunately, it has little dents in almost every panel, but the pictures do a good job of hiding them. I got a nice comment on it the other day after a staff meeting when one of our other IT guys drove by in the parking lot and stopped to comment that it looked like a rally car, which I consider a high compliment because he used to race rally cars. Now if I only had time and money to make it perform like a rally car. Oh well. I really enjoy driving it anyway.
November 4, 200520 yr How'd you install those driving lights? Are they attached to the grill or bumper? Pretty easy installation? I think it looks great! Does it decrease airflow into the engine significantly (ie, you don't heat up do you?). Thanks. Old school representation Nice! Here is mine with the summer shoes on. Snows go on this week or next...whenever it gets cold again.
November 4, 200520 yr Subiegal, I think I love you Subiegal, i think she's married. Heres my wagon on her first shakedown run
November 4, 200520 yr Author scruffycyclist - They are attached to the grill, which is attached to the hood, and they are pretty stable. So when I raise the hood, the lights go with it, which puts them out of harms way. The "bounce" at night when they are lit isn't too bad at all. I am going to put a piece of black foam weatherstripping between the grill and the bumper and that should firm it up nicely. My relay is fried or I would get you some pictures of them on...now that I think of it, I really need to fix that relay (I'm going on 2 months without working Hellas!). Thanks for the compliments, Kevin btw, no problems with running hot or anything
November 5, 200520 yr Ok, Emily is a work in progress. I'm repairing the bodywork that the original owner let go (he was hit a few times in parking lots and such, so the original doors were pretty banged up). She is not the prettiest on the outside, but she runs like a top, and quick as all get-out. . . Look in my gallery for more. . .
November 5, 200520 yr Subiegal, i think she's married. no no no ... not married..... but may as well be the blue wagon and the yellow wagon = the same car!!! repainted Video clips, and more photos here: http://www.subiegal.com/images/rallies/rallies.htm Jamie
November 5, 200520 yr Subie Gal, I think you just got the complete attention of every guy on this board. That is a sweet wagon you got there. I'm interested, though. Is there a reason to rally wagons instead of sedans? Stiffer body perhaps? You are the second person I've heard of rallying wagons. I would think the rear end would tend to wash out, or the weight to be too high for the size of the engine. . . Where am I wrong?

I chose to rally the wagon simply coz nobody else was doing it. *it's just as fast as the sedan *just as capable i have the suspension set up so that the car handles like a dream. it wasnt always so, quite a learning experience weight difference vs sedan = 80lbs hell.. i weigh 80lbs less than most other drivers it's a good rally car. really glad i chose to try something different.

November 6, 200520 yr This is the Turbowagon (also called Turbie, Turd Wagon, etc..) lol instead of Herbie the Love Bug I have Turbie the Shaggin Waggin :brow:
November 6, 200520 yr Here are some pics of my L wagon. mods so far: -H&R springs -WRX wheels -05 WRX axle back and custom 2.25 midpipe -01 EJ251 -RS side skirts -pioneer cd player
November 6, 200520 yr Gnuman...I wouldn't say your 92 wagon is "not the prettiest". I would call that a custom Burgandy-Winestone-Pearl Door Modification.
November 6, 200520 yr slide...: you are so my hero! that car is hot! Nice list of mods too! One suggestion: factory fogs.
November 6, 200520 yr Gnuman...I wouldn't say your 92 wagon is "not the prettiest". I would call that a custom Burgandy-Winestone-Pearl Door Modification. Actually, only the rear door is changed in that pic. It is actually a "the metal is straight" door modification. There are a few other patches as well, where he got tagged. Got the car in his late 70's and gave up his license (and sold the car to my stepdaughter) in his early 80's. He passed away about a year and a half ago, sadly. Just before I aquired the car. My one regret is that he never got to see what I did to improve the car. He was very into functionality, and most of the improvements added to that. He could give a whit about bodywork however, and did not have any of the dings fixed. That is really the one thing that is wrong with Emily. Everything else is way better than any rational expectation. . . Here is a pic of the "Entertainment Center": Note that the CD player is out of an SVX, and the foot stays pinned to the firewall. . .
