May 27, 201114 yr Author thanks! its so worth it. even BG stuff bolts right in as long as you use your rear strut tops. (NOTE bg rear springs are wider (no taper) at the top) GR-2's for 02-04 wrx's are 10-15% stiffer than stock wrx struts... Edited May 27, 201114 yr by Ricearu
May 28, 201114 yr replaced bulbs with LED's but I had to take them out and flip them around the space was so tight I just decided to take the whole unit apart.. Edited May 28, 201114 yr by 1-3-2-4
May 28, 201114 yr How even is the light doing that? I just glued strips along the back of the plastic thingies and the lighting is perfect.
May 28, 201114 yr I think they are called light bars.. something like that.. the light shines at it and it spreads the light out. looks really good. At least I know what I'm hitting now but I've learned to go by feel anyways.. I can't wait to do my dash again.. I did that in my other legacy and it looks amazing.

My gauges and hvac are blue. No sploches or anything. I'm really happy with how it came out.
May 28, 201114 yr I did not want to color the bulb covers or the bulbs themselves I'm not picky because this is not a show car.
May 28, 201114 yr Holy Sh*t! Is that what its supposed to look light at night! replaced bulbs with LED's but I had to take them out and flip them around the space was so tight I just decided to take the whole unit apart..
May 28, 201114 yr haha yeah it's pretty damn nice looking only thing really left is the rear cargo light and how to fit that out with a custom LED.. it's like no room in the fixture. tomorrow I gotta go shopping for some welding stuff going to do the muffler sometime soon
May 28, 201114 yr Put new Struts on hand painted the Wheel Well's with Rustolium Protective enamel. Gloss Black Before After
May 29, 201114 yr Pulled a '88 XT6 from Chicago back to WI with the Outback. Tow-Bar is how the Subaru Alliance rolls.
May 29, 201114 yr i got more parts for my wrx swap in the brat. got the entire wiring harness for the wrx as well as a few engine bits, shifter and accessport tuner. i just hope the guy that is parting out the car has all of the sensors and what not that ill need when i put everything back together again.
May 29, 201114 yr nice find tom ! there is your 5 lug for your Loyale. if you decide to part the xt6 out. if you fix it that good to.
May 29, 201114 yr nice find tom ! there is your 5 lug for your Loyale. if you decide to part the xt6 out. if you fix it that good to. This is the XT6 Fox and I ran after in Chicago yesterday. It will become an Ice Racer.
May 29, 201114 yr I did some more work on this, took a picture. Then did some more work on this. In search of TWE. Used, first gen heads, surfaced and standard valve job done. It will be tuned port, pocket ported, full port. Multi-angle valve job cut with Serdi machine comming. I have all new Lash Adjusters. Really, they don't lift anything, they don't get "lifted", they adjust lash. They don't get lifted by the cam. Now, an EA-81 has LIFTERS, they indeed get lifted by the cam, then the LIFTER LIFTS the pushrod, consequently lifting the rocker arm and etc. End rant. I've broken down three turbos and this one is the only one that isn't cracked in the waste gate. I'll need a bigger turbo for these heads and intake tho. Doug Edited May 30, 201114 yr by Quidam

May 30, 201114 yr Finally put a muffler on my car. After 3 months or so with it straight piped it sounds very very stealthy.

May 31, 201114 yr Tom came over and we put new cam and crank seals in my Legacy. No more constant dripping, oil burning and smoking off the exhaust!
May 31, 201114 yr replaced bulbs with LED's but I had to take them out and flip them around the space was so tight I just decided to take the whole unit apart.. I want to do this in both of my cars, what was needed to do the job? Where the LEDs anything special? Where did you get them and what was the part number?
