Who here owns a Subaru?

[agw_01]

I think I've only ever seen genuine STi wagons in bugeye form, if I was ever to buy/build one, it'd probably end up being a bugeye.

My mate had a bugeye WRX in for an engine swap the other month and we were talking about it then.

Good shout on the Legacy GTB, that's the twin turbo version right? I do like the Legacy, was looking at a 3.0 auto when I was looking for a 2nd car.

Levorg STi looks interesting. Hopefully it does actually offer STi levels of performance and ability and Subaru aren't trying to turn the 'STi Sport' into a trim level.

The local car dealer here as everyone knows as the cowboys at the net. You know the one with a showroom in a massive car park and loads of Japanese cars.

They've had loads of Subaru's come in recently. They've got this legacy b4 2.5. It's a nice car but looks a bit tired. Love the look of the legacy saloons even if they are a little grandpa looking.

Balls. That's a classic failure point, isn't it.

No idea, but its a new rad

Just wow.

Seen a set of these for sale (16s). What's the going value for these? Seller wants £650 which feels quite rich but then I've not seen many like them - reputedly off a 22B.

Quite tempted, following a 30-second Photoshop...

They're not 22B alloys, although nothing to say they were not on one. They look nice, and suit the Forester, not sure about £650 though?

You sure? I always thought if the bugeye had the high scoop they had bought a blob sti bonnet.

Scoops were mostly the same on all classics except for the S201 which has a mahoosive one. Bugeye WRX had a lower one, bugeye STi had a taller one (which I think looks great) - blob WRX had lower one, blob STi had a taller one again (which IMO only suited the blob) - hawk WRX and STi had the same scoop.

pic of the new one.

WR1 to WRX ? I think we need moar information and pics from the crash. You're holding out on us.

Classics had STi wagons. Bugeye STi was the only official STi wagon made, although many have made their own as such I'd love a bugeye STi wagon with DCCD.

Levorg comes in nice flavours in Japan, but sadly only the 1.6 CVT here, which actually isn't all that slow. A few mods would no doubt make a lot of difference.

Classic wagons are best wagons.

Yeah wr1 to wrx. Backwards init

I bet if you had those on all 4 rims you would still have more contact area than most slammed /camber cars.

Not sure I've put pics in here, don't bother now that PB has stopped image linking, can never be bothered to find a host that's easy to use via mobile phone.

Had some Tein springs fitted, very happy with how it looks and it drives pretty well too. Perhaps a little bit more crashy below 30mph but nothing that can't be lived with.

It has settled ever so slightly more than the above picture now a couple of weeks have passed. It looks front heavy in the image but it sits level, must be driveway angle Vs the picture angle.

 

[ScoobyDoo69]

Muuuuuch better Phil! Looks great.

 

[agw_01]

Sorry Kosta, I meant new age STi wagons. Of course I've seen genuine classic STi wagons before... and oh yes, STi bugeye wagon with DCCD would be one car I'd probably chop my blob in for. I do love the bugeye front end with the JDM/prodrive projector headlights.

Looking good Phil, looks much better!

 

[Phil W]

I've always thought the bugs look good with the black innards on the headlights too.

 

[L0rdMike]

Just installed a Christmas gift, seems alright much better than stock.

 

[Phil W]

Does that say pumpkin?

 

[Jumper118]

the altitude isnt much use is it? you need vertical distance jumped in air or distance traveled through air or air time.

 

[Phil W]

I wonder if you can get a BTTF time circuits display

 

[L0rdMike]

Need to peel off the screen protection but putting it to good use now.

Sorry I crashed officer but someone need urgent advice on the forums

So subtle I didn't even notice the correction to start with @ScoobyDoo69

Found your problem, that's supposed to be inside the engine
