Thanks!

[mike-tracy]

Paragraphs, not walls of text please! I do like your 99.

[WESTcoast]

Paragraphs, not walls of text please! I do like your 99.

haha alright ill break it down it was like 5 or 6am when i wrote that haha the english dictionary nor the fundamentals or writing were awake at the time hahaha

[WESTcoast]

ok should be fixed now haha

[mike-tracy]

Much appreciated edit. Yeah, it's hard to say how long your motor will last. The head gaskets blew on mine, and I drove it about 40k HARD miles with warped heads, scorched pistons and walls, crankwalk, etc. I overheated it hardcore about 20 times, but as long as I filled it up with fluids and ran thermostat-less (not recommended for a good motor) I was golden. These are tough little suckers.

My bad motor never died - but did I swap in a newer engine eventually.

[WESTcoast]

Yeah I know it is but it starts up everytime for my 80mile commute everyday so I have faith in it. (knocks on plastic woodgrain trim in car lol) Danngg your car has been through alot! Its like our engines just wont die!! everyone in the subaru car club i belong to swears i can drive that engine forever hahaha. As much as I would like to believe them im just going to give it untill 200,000 and swap that motor then.

I am also thinking of upgrading the radiator to somthing a little more beefy but thats in due time haha

[gibbons98legacygt]

You have a p0420 cat code yet from all the raw fuel ur dumping in ur cat

[WESTcoast]

You have a p0420 cat code yet from all the raw fuel ur dumping in ur cat

[d1giPhux]

looks like fun man! wish more people did tech type meets around here.. hell.. i wish people did ANY type of meet around here. LOl guess i gotta move to cali for that! :lol:

[WESTcoast]

Well today headed up to my local subaru dealership and went in to order some windshield wiper plugs, I was pleasently surpised when the guy asked if i wanted a freee oil change and from a dealership i couldnt pass up the offer, mainly the guy was interested in seeing my sway bar and how i got it in, so instead of me taking pics of my undercarrige for you i went out and test drove a 05 lgt that they had on the lot. FUN is all i can say. Plus I got my plugs half price!!!

working on another D.I.Y for restoring your rusted wiper blades!

[WESTcoast]

looks like fun man! wish more people did tech type meets around here.. hell.. i wish people did ANY type of meet around here. LOl guess i gotta move to cali for that! :lol:

Haha I belong to two car clubs out here, one is J_Status and the other is Def Sik (definitly Sick), were mainly a bunch of great friends who love our cars, hang, bbq and the cool thing we all met through our cars! There are alot of meets that happen out here in the bay area. About 10 meets happen out here during one whole week arond the bay area.

You should start your own meet around your area! just get a whole bunch of people to go with you and soon you will gain supporters!

[d1giPhux]

^ bit harder then that on the east coast man.. things don't happen like that too much on this side. at least.. north east. maybe a bit further south or something where the people are more friendly! haha.

[jduldula]

how do you like the rear sway? i was thinking of going to 22 but trying to see where the limit is before DD is foregone.

[WESTcoast]

Oh I see New York attitude over there??? hahaha jk jk, i never been to the east coast but definitly would like to! You can always start off small couple of friends and then try to open it and see what happens. At our Def Sik meets in the summer we had stupid 5.0 mustangs come and do burnouts and basicly make us have to more to other locations to avoid them. They havent been comming in the winter rains, but as of now we are looking for another meeting place. So bascily there will be haters everywhere you go haha.

[WESTcoast]

my whiteline line rear 24 is meant for a impreza but theoreticly doesnt fit out legacys due to our wheel well. I took matters in my own hands(and a hammer) and forced fitted it. Its a ruff ride when its on the hard setting but give me incredible handling unline anything i ever driven before, but as of now im on the soft setting which is pretty comfortable.

22 is pretty good, if you can go adjustable look for them used(to find them cheaper) but I say adjustable so that you have want the stiffness when you really want it, and for DD purposes keep it on soft.

[WESTcoast]

sanded down and repainted my windshield wipers, and belt covers last week, this week was the test of indurance, as I drove a good 1500 miles to break in the belt cover paint(see how its holding up) and this week was off and on rain and so far the two coats of paint and the wiper arms seem to be holding up. When it gets warmer i plan to go back over them. Working on a DIY for that as well.

This morning the subaru dealership called me up and surprised me with Subaru goodness, not much but I was pissed pants happy when I got there haha

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2010/02/photo35-1.jpg

[WESTcoast]

TOOK MY WING OFFFF!!!! I looks like a tottally different car to me! Now i just need to be low again!!! and spacers hahaha

Correct!! haha I didnt have any on my car, i ended up replaceing the bolts as they were rusty and getting those caps for a buck at the dealership! probally the cheapest thing ill ever buy from them hahaha. But they do complete the look of my front bezel, used black to black on the vynl parts, sanded and painted windshield wipers and the caps to with the cherry on top! hehe

[WESTcoast]

more pics more pics more pics+++

[WESTcoast]

I was inspired by your car to go wingless when you took yours off. But if your jealous we can fix that reall quick just tade me cars or trade me your STi bbs's or your coilovers hahahaha

[WESTcoast]

Here is a video I took the other night of the suspension in action, freshly tuned in, with the rear sway set to the middle position i wish i put it on the hard setting but havent tried the medium setting yet. This is my main road and I usualy push it hard, but my tires are on thier last stand and plus my friend is in the drivers seat who is 300lbs +!! So the car wasnt acting like it was with just me in it. And sorry about the camera work, didnt have the mount with me.

what camera is it? dpreview.com will tell you everything you ever wanted to know.

basically what you want to do is have the camera shoot in RAW+JPEG format.

thanks for the info!

s techs SUUCCCCKKK!!!!

[WESTcoast]

s techs SUUCCCCKKK!!!!

20 bucks for s techs = greattt haha, I heard about ppl not liking s techs, but ill find out soon enough, my sold them to me for 20 bucks and all the times i road in his car it was really comfortable. Ill still have my ebanchi's incase i dont like them.

[Navi271]

YEEEEAHH!! S-TECHS!!! lol, I've heard so many stories about s-techs, BAD stories... but I have a set waitin to go on too!

[WESTcoast]

YEEEEAHH!! S-TECHS!!! lol, I've heard so many stories about s-techs, BAD stories... but I have a set waitin to go on too!

hahaha I just want them to go low for a bit, I will keep my ebanchi's as I love how the setup is with those but dont like the ride hieght(too much like stock). I'm patiently waiting for my friend to return his wrx to stock and swoop on his megan racing coils!

[fwa2500]

im actually wanting to get my s-techs off my car, ya, the ride hight looks good, but the ride quality is shit. they are both harsh and mushy all at the same time

[WESTcoast]

what kinda struts were you running with them. My friend who I snagged them off of was using his stock struts yet his car drove extremely smooth. I know that with them on I am not going to feel velety smooth but Im curious to see how they perform for myself. Hey it they were basicly free! I am just going to take them off of the oem struts up them on my gr2s ride with them for a month and call a verdict if I go back to my ebanhi's. I will only be out 60 bucks for an alignment and thats if i dont sell the springs and old struts!

its a WIN WIN situation!!!!! lol

[fwa2500]

i have '04 STi struts

[WESTcoast]

thats is wierd with a better strut its still musshy eh?

[WESTcoast]

New pieces to the game:

counter-clock wise from the top left: Whiteline adjustable rear endlinks for STi. Rear subframe lock-down bolts. Rear diff mount with Turn in Concepts hardened bushings. STi aluminum rear lateral links with GrpN bushings. KYB Gr2 struts with ebanchi pro kit springs (these arent new just cleaned). :grin:
not pictured is the cusco 24mm swaybar

[TGX4776]

i want.

[TGX4776]

oh newb question for you, whats the rear diff locking bolt for?

[fwa2500]

TiC <3 so glad they are literally 20 minutes away from me

[Lone_legacy]

So jealous of the cusco bar. Let us know how the rear end behaves with it on. Im looking to go for a thicker swaybar in the rear. Bring on the oversteer!

[TGX4776]

Same, It looks like i will be doing my suspension this summer too.

[WESTcoast]

oh newb question for you, whats the rear diff locking bolt for?


It locks up the rear diff to the frame so that when your under alot of tourque the diff isnt moving/twisting. keeps it level and the movement to pretyt much none. Dont worry I guess you can call me a newb to it too i just recently found out about it and then found it for sale hahaha

[Navi271]

Curse you and your no snow and salt winters and hardly any rain summers!!! I guess it depends on where in CA you live, but the underside of your car looks pretty damn rust free.

Oh, and nice collection of new parts! Megan racing coils sound awesome!

I had a whiteline 24mm adjustable before this and it was awesome, my car literally was on rails, when i had it on the 24mm setting

This one feels the same way, well i havent tested out the new suspension as i need tires, but im firguing it will react the same yet better and stiffer due to the other upgrades

[WESTcoast]

[TGX4776]

I want to do that too mine too, but I got bigger problems on my hands haha


The diffuser is from an sti tooo hahaha, just put it on for the hell of it, it still hangine down in the back with no support and the front is ghetto riged hahaha, hope it doesnt fall off on the freeway!

[Lone_legacy]

I picked up a set of fuzions a month or so ago. What do you think of em?

[TGX4776]

VRI or HRI?

[Lone_legacy]

VRI or HRI?

hri, as in the picture above ^^

[TGX4776]

I have HRI's as well. so far they are ok, they like to pull a bit on the highway. I got a laser alignment with the mounting and balancing of the new tires. Don't think i'll buy another set.

[LIMITED]

Hey!
I had Fuzion HRI tires on my BE(205/55/16"). Replaced them before winter started with dedicated winter tires.
They are made by Bridgestone If remember correctly.The Fuzions were a little loud, and when get used up they started hydroplaning at high speeds for me (be careful).
BUT on the plus side they are asymetrical tire specifically designed for AWD vehicles. Handle not bad in snow.
After hitting some biggish pot holes the wall on 1 of mine showed a bump, which sounded horrible.
I have 3 used ones still in my garage if you want spares will sell for cheap.
Enjoy

[Lone_legacy]

They have been adequate for the price for me so far. Dry grip: good, wet grip: ok. More tire squirm than the ze912s I used to have. Let's not thread-jack WESTcoasts ride journal though.

[WESTcoast]

Its all good guys thread jack away, I acually got these tires for pretty cheap, totally price came to be around FREEE!!!! haha, my friend had given me his wrx rims with these tires on them, i had them unmounted and remounted to my snowflakes. So far they are excellent tires but I haven't pushed my car hard in a good while. I would say that they are really really iffy in the rain when taking sharp corners but other than that they are ok.

I still trying to make up my mind about what new rims I want. I been on this decision for soo long and everytime i need new tires, I keep saying new rims and then become undeciive then i just give in and buy antoher set of tires haha

i also saw these yummmmmmmm but are 18's on our car tooo big??

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2008/03/bbs_rgr_db_ci3_l-1.jpg

[TGX4776]

you might have to roll the fenders and depends on the offset. I wanted a set of BBS 16's that came into 12.2 lbs but it was gunna run me 2k

[WESTcoast]

All this clunkiness in the car is driving me insane, but the feel of it is sooo great! I wish I didnt have to extend the life of my tires a bit more as I will be needing some soon or else I would be hitting the backroads to really test out this new setup my tiens will go on after I tried out this setup.

all that and you still have oem endlinks??

lol

[WESTcoast]

on the front thier stock, but the rear are upgraded.

[Lone_legacy]

You still going low or decided against it?

[WESTcoast]

You still going low or decided against it?


yeah its on my todo list, its been raining on and off and work has pined me down lately so i havent had the chance to put them in but its on the todo list. Im acually dont like my setup hahahah, it soo stiff but before i do anything i need new tires and new brakes thier both due haha

[chromehorn]

I'd say 18's are too big. It'll look donk. Mine's getting slammed on 16's on 205/45 16's and even I need to roll fenders. My stock tires now rub. But mostly on the fender liner. I personally wouldn't want to try and fit 18's. 17s are nice though, with the right sized tire. Regardless of rubbing, I'd say 17's look much better than 18's. Our Subarus have fairly small wheel wells.

yeah 18s are a little to big, but i like to try before i buy i might borrow my firends and try it on to see how it looks, I always been a fan of 17's as when i use my car, it iwll be used and not for show haha. STi bbs's have always been the apple of my eye, but the price and finding them is hard for me. But i do like the spokes on LMs hahaha lets jus say i like shinny things haha

Next I want to do a sick street build. I had been thinking a 2-door RS w/swap, but your GT is inspiring me. Maybe I should stick with the Legacy and do a 'late-90's specB' build. :smt030

Thanks bro, shoot I wish I had an STi outback hahahahaha

[WESTcoast]

Its a good day Im lowered finally on my s-techs, they ride like coilovers yet handle like your average lowering springs. I liking the drop it too me from a fist pumping gap in the front to a barely a finger gap and the rear is now two fingers. the sits and looks right with the rims and the wing missing. I will take better pictures later

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2010/08/f5a4cd4a-1.jpg

[httrdd]

sexy!

[)2edline]

Looking real real good. cept I'm confused on your statement about riding like coilovers and handling like lowering springs lol.

To me that sounds like the exact same thing, or worst, is kinda the opposite of what you want =\

Maybe you going for stance/drop is like coilovers, and the handling is like regular springs?

[Lone_legacy]

Nice, I like the rim choice as well. Fender rolling??

[Navi271]

...they ride like coilovers yet handle like your average lowering springs...
I know EXACTLY what you're talking about!!! lol, you really feel every little bump in the road, but the springs still have a ton of flex and compression. It's weird to describe. Just watch out for the big bumps! Those are a painful, and the only reason why I want to raise my car back up.

but...


Maybe you going for stance/drop is like coilovers, and the handling is like regular springs?
I think that's pretty much spot on too.

[WESTcoast]

I really wanted it to put them on for the stance and to see what everyone was fussing about, I mean they are livable you just got to get use to them. I hit up the twistys adn the car handled well beyond what I thought it would feel like. Although I am watching out when I see pot holes and bumps, I have to go sideways a bit to get over speed bumps without scratching my bumper, but ehh my front bumper needs to be resprayed anyway.

Going on a photshoot with some friends from Canibeat.com yay

[fwa2500]

the entering sideways and feeling every single little bump things got old quick for me. the drop looks good, i loved how my car looked when i had the s-techs on and you car also looks great, but the harshness on any kind of imperfection on the road combined with mushiness in the turns (my stock '05 STi springs feel the same and even slightly stiffer in the) really put me off. oh, and the whole scraping the bumper everywhere thing too :|


anyway, car is looking great! have any plans to get jdm headlights and fogs?

[WESTcoast]

Yeah I know what you mean and thanks for the complement! I will rock them for a whille till i get really tired of them and throw on somthing else, hopefully somthing else wil lbe the form a coilover lol. Jdm headlights and grill are on the way, but a replacement motor is what I need next hahaha

[Navi271]

Sounds like you'll have to make the move to coilovers someday!!!

Idk about the DIY lip. Everything is white on your car, and that black DIY lip might stick out in a bad way. Just a thought, try it tho!

[WESTcoast]

my front is shit, my car was in an accident from the last owner and the front bumper was poorly redone and then me and my drunken yellow fogs(you can see yellow overspray on the bumper and then the bottom is all scratched up. So any lip I'll put it on and then have it repainted when the bumper is done.

I also been looking at those integra lips that people have been putting on legacys, like the mugen one and the type R one. haha I cant wait for my next pay check!

Blacked out Projectors, a JDM Grill and a little negative camber would go a long way =]

I'm not really a tint person but I will probably go like factory % tint in the rear and passenger. Living in the great state of California, I'm trying not to give the police a reason to pull me over lol

Yeah Im trying to find a lip for cheap off of a integra, more so trying to help my friend find a mugen lip so have his type R one

[harrymaneuvers]

Just so you know... Firestone complete auto care shops will do a lifetime alignment for the vehicle for about $120!!! (the one in Mt. View I know for sure does it!)

You can take it in to get adjusted any time you feel like it is off... for the rest of the life of the car!

['Buru in the Burgh]

Picked up the car at around 140,xxx and around 160,xxx I found out I had a misfire going on in the 4th cylinder. Had it throughly checked my the subaru dealership and they said I have a burnt piston, in which instead of making 150lbs of compression im making 32lbs of compression in the cylinder. They told me to scrap it, and buy another one as it would be a grand for them to fix it or 500 for a shop to fix it. But the main thing they told me was to stop driving it, has I could have a wrongful dedination in the cylinder and blow the engine completely.


That's how I blew my engine last week :smt009

My car is been everywhere, LA and back reno and back, more touge runs that I can think of, bounced of the rev limiter a couple of times, geez me and my car have been through alot, I just hope it keeps up the good work and doesn't stop now *knock on wood* I already have a hook up with an engine to put in, and I have a new job as well so Im prepared to buy it at any moment haha

SPACERS SPACERS SPACERS! I got my hands on a set of 25mm hubcentric spacers from cusco for free! then a pair of 10mm spacers for free as well from a friend. I tried them on and if i had a different tire size with the such as 205 or 215 it would give it the right look to what I would like. I dont have pic's of the 10's on but they fit just right flush enough for me so I am going to find another pair and then have those on.

When I get my alignment I will hopefully have the neg camber maxed out!

[WESTcoast]

Drove behind a lifted truck and he kicked something huge up at me which took out my side marker, cracked headlight, broke my grill into two, then got caught, bent my control arm oh and dont forget MY BRAND NEW V LIMITED LIP WHICH IS NO MESSED UPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

That's the main damage, I have scratch but I can care less about that. Didnt even have the time to avoid it, insurance wont cover it, and my wallet is saying wtf, ughhhhhhhhhhHHHHHFJFJLKDFJOLFJDSLFJSLFJFJLTHFJLGHOAJ ----RANT OVER

all in all its looking like projectors, L7 grill, aluminum forged control arms? hmmmm we will see, here is the damage report

SADDDD DAAYYYY

[harrymaneuvers]

Weak as hell!!!! Time for projectors!!!! Hell yea!

FYI i have a headlight in great condition for sale if you need one asap...

I know I will be in the milpitas/ san jose area this comming sunday if you can wait until then.

[WESTcoast]

Awesome! thanks dude! You wouldnt happen to have a turn signal would ya haha as right now thats more important lol! I will see need to get paid first before I do anything

[harrymaneuvers]

I literally JUST sold both turn signals to "grayguy".

Otherwise I would in a heartbeat!!

[bmwpride]

what is that v limited lip off of?

[TGX4776]

I have some one pieces for sale for 100 shipped if you are interested. minty. you would need a new wiring harness though. but will still run you less then new headlights or JDM's

[sybir]

Sorry, man, didn't see all of the other damage. I think I have a grill if you need one. One of the rolling shots my buddy grabbed:

[WESTcoast]

what is that v limited lip off of?

Its of an STI and now its reallly scuffed from being dragged, but I will see what I can do with it. I had cut the thing that goes up off so that i can somewhat lay it. When it was on all i could say was bad ass :)

[WESTcoast]

I have some one pieces for sale for 100 shipped if you are interested. minty. you would need a new wiring harness though. but will still run you less then new headlights or JDM's

Thanks alot dude I appreciate it, I'm taking this moment in time to run with scissors and some jdm projectors so I can be cool like you guys lol :grin:

[WESTcoast]

Sorry, man, didn't see all of the other damage. I think I have a grill if you need one. One of the rolling shots my buddy grabbed:



Thanks man for the picture super awesome rolling shot YAY! good thing your friend got my good side lol, please thank him for the picture for me! Yeah it wasnt till I at BAM when i noticed my grill in two and not untill I got home that I had a bent control arm, but I think the control arm will live, not bad but im a perfectionist at times. Great seeing you at bam and randomly joining your caravan to there lol.

[WESTcoast]

haha sybir remember I was talking about your grill and how much i wanted it!?! haha it looks like thats next on the plate, but having a grill is least on the plate, I will see what bondo, sandpaper and paint will do for me. Thank you through for the offer!

[Lone_legacy]

Sorry to hear about the accident. I would be fuming!

I am curious about this lip. What year sti is it off of? Any pics ?

[WESTcoast]

Sorry to hear about the accident. I would be fuming!

I am curious about this lip. What year sti is it off of? Any pics ?

I had just put it on the night before, and was going to wait till that day to take pictures and post them up here as I went to B.A.M Bay Area subaru Meet. I'm going to see if I cant salvage it, it was off of a bugeye but I think it was from a 04-05 one.

[bmwpride]

where can i purchase one? Also i love your car...

[sybir]

Search for v-limited on ebay for an 04-05 Impreza. There are a bunch of replicas out there- get a polyurethane one or you'll destroy it instantly. The 06/07 follows the lines of that bumper more and wouldn't look right on a Legacy (at least IMO).

[bmwpride]

sweet thanks. One more question, what spacer would go good with stock snowflakes... I saw your aggressive look with the spacer you have, and it looked amazing. SO i want to get some for my stock wheels?

[WESTcoast]

Yeah the 04-05 one fit well with the car, since i picked it up for cheap I'm going to get another one maybe play around with it and see if i can come up with somthing as I have a broken type R lip from my friends integra and my v limited lets see what kind of monster i can make with bondo! lol

I was using 25mm hubcentric spacers these will make your snowflakes flush, as you can see for me it was a little tooo much and i ended giving them to my friend with a buyeye for his edm wrx rims. Spacers arent cheep my friend and thier hard to find hubcentric and 5x100 in some cases. If your a fan of the mesh looking pattern you can find some lina corsa (might of spelled it wrong) by rota or the real deal BBS LMs (yummmm) then you can go low offset and wideeeeee!

[bmwpride]

what size would i need, would i need to get 25mm, or would something smaller fit.

[WESTcoast]

what size would i need, would i need to get 25mm, or would something smaller fit.

I will post up a picture of my friend's wrx with the 25mm spacers on, They made his stock jdm wrx rims pretty flush. I would go with a 20 or a 15mm you wont be flush but a hell of a difference over stock offset! I'm looking for another set of 10mm as I have one pair need to find one more!

[WESTcoast]

so I took a day out and created me some HID from oem BMW HID ballast and some bulbs that I was given, Thier way too blue, so I'm looking for some that are 4300k-6000k to put in. While I was at it I wired my fogs into my turn signals so that for my parking lights they turn on as well, looks pretty aggressive.

oh and JDM PROJECTORS ARE ON THE WAY!!!!!!! YAY

[4n70n1n0]

Ur BD is coming along super nice dude

Spacers, I've used ICHIBA and they are in Cali(i think)
ICHIBA 25mm Spacers for 5x100 (http://www.ichibausa.com/25albowhsp11.html) < - Link

[bmwpride]

those were the ones i was looking at

[WESTcoast]

Thanks dude I might buy their 10mm spacers!!!! and thats good that they are hubcentric!

[bmwpride]

Hey with your 18x7.5 did you have to roll your fenders or anything?

[Reuben]

Spacers are for posers, real men buy low offset wheels.

:p ;)

[WESTcoast]

yeah I had to roll the rear fenders when I wasnt low, the fronts werent a problem till i went low, but now that I have then cambered its so i dont rub.

Reuben: hahaha dont worry I have something in store and it will be agressive and functional haha

[WESTcoast]

What I been working on lately:

projectors say they will be here Saturday! YAY!!!!!

here is a sneak shot of what will be installed tomorrow :)

Starts with a V ends witha limited...and its painted hehehe

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2010/09/6a1549a7-1.jpg

[TGX4776]

NOT A FAN..... of your beer choice. :grin:

[WESTcoast]

hahaha dont worry Im a corona man myself lol

[Lone_legacy]

Looking forward to that lip dude!

[bmwpride]

im very excited to see that lip.. So i can see if i will like it!!

[bmwpride]

im very excited to see that lip.. So i can see if i will like it!!

[WESTcoast]

So last I left you guys the sneak peak of the v limited being painted but now its done and half ass installed but installed none the less haha. I will take more close up pics later of the job and more detail of all that i did. please leave a response on what you think its sorta a hit or miss Im still 50 50 about it but i gotta say it looks nice.

Also my JDM projectors came in the mail today and I wired up my Custom BMW HID Ballast and bulbs to them, I am going to buy some 5k bulbs as these are a diffent size and are somewhat jimmy rigged in there haha, but t
hey work for now.

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2010/10/38e37845-1.jpg

and of the Projectors and the HID's

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2010/10/65f729ec-1.jpg

[Chushajo]

Got to be honest, I'm not a fan of the lip. I think the car looks better without it. On the plus side those projectors look amazing.

[TGX4776]

well it is half installed..... I hope. otherwise that is crappy a crappy fit.

[sybir]

I'm personally not a fan of painted lips, especially when you're slammed or it's not an exact fitment. Hides scratches, chips, etc, a lot better when it's black/unfinished. A bright color like white calls attention to gaps, etc, and the double-lip effect on your bumper is more noticable when it's the same color.

But, it's not my car - that's the great part about modifying, everyone likes different stuff. If you can get it pulled up on the corners to remove that gap I think it'll look cleaner and be less likely to get pulled off when you scrape it on stuff.

[Navi271]

I think it looks awkward for everyone cause there already is that pseudo factory front lip on that bumper. It just looks a little funny with 2 front lips. Maybe if you could mold it to the stock lip, and create one MASSIVE BUMPER LIP! haha

Is that gap between the left side headlight and the bumper from that thing you hit?!

[WESTcoast]

yeah you guys are all right in a way, paitned lips do show mistakes and gaps but funny thing is right now there are only 4 screws holding this baby in place, I ran out.... lol

it does kinda look wierd but it looks a little better in person in my opinion Several ppl said that after showing them pictures they were like ehhh, but then seeing it up close they were a like it alot more. those gaps that you see will be taken out as I need to finish adding in more screws haha I will ride around for with it a bit and get my 20 dollars worth hahaha or untill it cracks and falls off lol.

My car has been in an accident (previous owner) and they half ass fixed the repair so that saggy bumper has always done that

BTW thanks everyone for your freedback gives me some good constructive crtizisim to work off of, I know the gaps are first to be eliminated, but Im going to look for a better way to makes it look natural haha

[WESTcoast]

Well in other news headlights are being worked on, get ready for omgwtfbbq HID's hehehe. I ll give you a hint I spy two of something

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2010/10/a978f037-1.jpg
before starting the projector project...getting plenty of beer so I can work smarter ;).....old HID's btw
https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2010/10/387ab24f-1.jpg

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2010/10/8023cc79-1.jpg

[Lone_legacy]

Love the projectors, I didnt realize how much they improve the asthetic appeal of the frontend. I really need to get a set of these.

The lip is too round on the corners I think, whereas stock lip is more squared off. Props for doing something different though!

[TGX4776]

you lip looks most excellent in the night shot

[WESTcoast]

I gotta say after putting in the projectors my car is a whole other beast, I just want to get a different grill to set off the aggressiveness, looking at something mesh to go with.

No progress on the lip I will work on it next time i do my oil change lol (im lazy)

in other news the projectors are now all set and squared away.

projector housing 55w 5k hid's running off BMW hid ballast
high beams are now 35w 10k hid's running off a generic ballast

impressions-GOD I CAN SEEE!!! and now with out blinding people! The 5k are perfect for causing less attention as they give off the stock look and like tinted blue look. high beams are murderous and go everywhere! and i like it, they light up anything that not in the way and then some!

Will post pictures tonight as I just got back from a vegas woohoo

haha Kinda hard to see the legacy in the picture when the GT2 just right there, love that car, its loud as F#$k!!!! Its a 99 with 32k on it and stole it for a price of whopping 18k with everything on it from an enthusiast who has 3 more of them haha.

[Reuben]

I just noticed, someone nicked your wing man, you should fix that. BD's look gay without their wing. Damn thiefs.

Also good job on getting the headlights hooked up right. Too many people leave em so that the projectors turn off when you go high beam. They look niiiice.

[TGX4776]

is the saab in the background a manual? :grin:


not much of a Porsche fan my self but the RUF's always look good. too bad it's not a full RUF

[WESTcoast]

Hahaha I like my car without the wing, it looks different and it looks alot longer without it. Dont worry I didnt get rid of it its sitting in my room :) If anything I want to find a trunk wing i know there is one for the BE/BH models where pretty much goes off the truck and looks sick, but as for now no wing is a nice wing

hahah no its an auto hahaha hella random lol

Yeah its fun to drive none the less plus it breaks necks everywhere it goes

BTW Rueben help me snag some jdm side markers :)))))

[TGX4776]

lol it's literally the first thing I saw in the pic.

[WESTcoast]

Last night the worst could that could ever happen to me happened.......I understeered into a really high sidewalk curb on the first rain of the season, messing up my front end and driver side, the wheel is pushed back, control arm bent, steering rack thing bent and pushed, fender is messed, and other cosmetic stuff. The frame is no doubt bent to. It will cost around 1-2grand to fix and I was just about to buy my engine next week, looks like This car is going to stay down. All you legacy guys should know how I feel its like my car was everything, girls went and came but my car was there always. At the moment I dont know what I should do, I sorta want to find another bd and carry on the legacy, or a forester, or even an outback. Funds arent in the right place at the moment so I really just want something that can get me to work and back.

Here is the picture I took of the milage when the accident happen When I go see the car i will take damage shots

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2010/10/cf578a08-1.jpg

and these shots were from ealier that day at lake berryessa, car handled great up and down the mountain, lucked out on understeering into a sidewalk and not into a mountainside at berryessa

[httrdd]

Got any after pics even though it hurts to post them?

[WESTcoast]

yeah it really really sucks, looking for another legacy, but this no money thing is going to be the death of me. Looks like I'm working from home for a couple of days/weeks till i find some type of mode of transportation.

As for the leggy I plan to visit her tomorrow with some tools and see if i cant take a look at the full damage. Tomorrow's toolbox will include, socket set, hammer, and a tissue box

[dplacencia]

Damn man sorry to hear that!!!!

[Lone_legacy]

NO! Im sorry dude... Hopefully its not the end of her.

[bmwpride]

Im sorry to hear that man, hope everything works out. Also glad to hear your alright. Now i understand its not something you want to hear but if you need money, you can also sell me some partss.. haha JK good luck with her tomorrow

[WESTcoast]

Thanks everyone I appreciate it, still at this moment I looking for another car, finding legacy's but they have problems with them. And the ones that dont have problems and are in good condition will need me to take a loan out on them. But I am looking at this gem, silver 99 lgt 5spd with 77k. Great right dealer wants 5500 bad right? My friend does business with the owner all the time and he will be talking to him about the car for me see if they cant strike a deal, probably not but i like to be hopeful




Im sorry to hear that man, hope everything works out. Also glad to hear your alright. Now i understand its not something you want to hear but if you need money, you can also sell me some partss.. haha JK good luck with her tomorrow


Thanks Dude, I took a look at it today and its pretty banged up :( sway bar bent, broken, endlinks, bent control arm, bent rack and pinion thing, fender is done, front bumper can be pushed back down, frame has been bent bad, rims are barely curb rashed!!!!!! yay!

I had the thought of parting out, and I might make a feeler thread to get an idea on who would want to buy what, seats, sway, endlinks, sti lateral links, diff mount, projectors, hid's, 05 wrx seats, harness bar (just came in the mail yesterday), catback exhaust, etc and the list goes on.

well i for one want your passenger side projector!

[bmwpride]

i will take just about everything hahah ..... Just let me know i have money ready...

[TGX4776]

how much for your rust free trunk?

[httrdd]

I had the thought of parting out, and I might make a feeler thread to get an idea on who would want to buy what, seats, sway, endlinks, sti lateral links, diff mount, projectors, hid's, 05 wrx seats, harness bar (just came in the mail yesterday), catback exhaust, etc and the list goes on.

You guys are relentless! Do think I did not peak at his mods list though.

[TGX4776]

lol well mine is dissolving.

[WESTcoast]

haha you guys crack me up lol! I acually have two trunks hahaha got it for 5 bucks one is a wingless one that i been slowly (think turtle pace) sanding down and painting and then my original trunk, Im willing to sell ya the one im working on once i finish it, and when i mean sell it to ya i mean you pay shipping to get it to where every you want!

but i wanna finish it, i hate not finishing projects haha

haha my part list isnt even fully updated, and i still have parts sitting in my garage waiting to go on! I will keep you all posted as to what I will do with the car, at this time she sits till further notice.

Speaking of sitting, I had it parked on my friends street and of course yesterday morning a cop rolled by, saw my expired tags (by 1 WEEK!!!!) and decided to help me keep spending money on my car by slapping a FAT 300 DOLLAR ticket on the windshield! Great right!?!? So im handling both that and the placement of the car, right now i moved it onto my friends property so no more tickets cant occur her. Here are some pics of the damage Doesnt look that bad from the pictures but its pretty bad, the hanger for the control arm is bent badly.

BTw I need your guys opinion looking at this

http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/2014959319.html

I messaged the guy about the rack and pintion problem, he said

"little play in the steering and sometimes, mostly at more than 40mph it vibrates once in a while when turning. One mech said just needs alignment but other recommended a new rack and pinion and he quoted 750. That why I reduced price. I was going to change it myself, but I don't have time, parts about 330$"

is the rack and pinon stuff hard to replace? can i steal some parts from my car (or worth it) could be wheel bearing from one friend, what do you guys think?

Good about the car,

5mt!
Head gaskets have been replaced,
timing belt and water pump have been done 40k ago

thinking about talking to him down to the 1000s

he is also going to get my more pictures of the car too

[bmwpride]

try yo snag it for between 1700-1900 and see if he goes for it. Replacing it isnt that bad, i mean you basically have a parts car.

[TGX4776]

[Okin DaVanh]

Sorry to "read" about your car, but if you get a few friends together and are capable of doing a motor swap.....Get a trailer and go get this:


http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/cto/2012930807.html


Offer him $500-$700 tops. You might end up swapping your motor into the other wagon, so you might as well save some money on the receiving chassis.... just a thought.

hahaha damnn just buy my car as it is hahaha, you got a pm good sir

[WESTcoast]

tomrrow im going to try to go over to the car, and take some stuff apart and see if maybe its fixable or at least to get it rolling again. I dont know but somthing in the back of my mind says, its justa strut and a control arm, but reality it looks like there more. This past week has been lame without a car, my 30minute commute has turned into 2hours thanks to the bus and b.a.r.t. Cant hang out with friends, cant go anywhere :( So Im going to bring a gang of tools with me and see what i cant see

man I should have been quicker on the cusco 24mm rear sway and the rear strut bar. I take it the front bar didn't survive?

how much for the brakes front and rear? (rotors ect)

[bmwpride]

Good luck and let us know, how it goes.

[jockstar]

Well sorry to hear about your misfortune! I would like whatever rear sway bar bmwpride doesnt buy. I would have liked ONE of the whitelines but I'm running stock legacy so even the OB would be an improvment. Also, what would you like for the apexi? If it is even prudent to use on my 2.2.

i know i called dibs on the projector headlight..!!

[Huffer]

My suggestion, start a FS thread and do it properly.

[WESTcoast]

My suggestion, start a FS thread and do it properly.

I understand, I waiting till i come to the confirmation that I am acually going to sell the parts, I didnt want to create a FS thread and then turn and round and say some to alot of things aren't for sale. As of now I havent posted any prices or anything, basically and updated mod list of whats all on my car :)

But one I come down to the verdict I will start a parts thread

[bmwpride]

whats the word, and or what did you see

[WESTcoast]

sorry everyone for getting your hopes up, its not that bad, just everything is bent! hahaha, so new axle, new rack and pinion stuff, new control arms, and i said why not, new whiteline endlinks, new whiteline bushin mounts, going 4 pots wrx brakes, and coilovers.

Didnt sell anything, well sold my trunk brace and my harness bar and harness, but i can buy those anytime. My car is home instead of sitting 40miles away in a friends driveway, at the time i was on the edge of giving up on my car, and i was about a signature away from buying an 08 lgt then backed out, then came close to buying a 05lgt and back out again, i just kept thinking about all the things and times my car has been there for me, call it love but hell i my car been there through 40k on with a misfire, 3 ex's, 2 years of college, and numerous times of saving my ass(thank you awd).

So to give back to my subaru, im repairing, and not caring about price, and to give you guys a hint, im in talks about buying a wrx engine.

I will keep you guys posted on work being done, the rainy season has started off in cali and my subie sits in car port with her cover on here is her on her maiden voyage home (never got got to see my car from a 3rd person view, but i gotta say its sorta sexy)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!

[httrdd]

Good to hear!

[ryu_haneda]

Ah, good! Now I can definitely include your car in next issue's write-ups without any awkwardness. :grin:

Glad to hear you kept the car. BD GTs are a bowful of win, and it sounds like you'll be comfortable in your sedan when it's back up and running right.

[WESTcoast]
