[rocketlegacy]

Thanks everyone ive been so modest about the transformation. but i do find myself staring at it when im supposed to be working on it. im going out for a photoshoot tomorrow. so we'll see what new photo locations i can come up with.

[Reuben]

Btw, try not shooting in square frame, and cutting bits off the car! I just had to say it. I reckon it's looking properly ready to actually go out on a real photoshoot now, I want to see that thing proper!

[WESTcoast]

congrats at WCSS!!!!

[Huffer]

Well done!

[redlegacygt]

Congrat's man!

[r3v_v3ng3]

[MonstarMotorsports]

[Zangado1]

Im loving the red GT nicely done,and thanks for the Sonax demonstration im sold! just ordered some on Amazon ($15) Sonax should give you a case of wheel cleaner for your kind product demo. I have been screwing around with $10 Mothers wheel cleaner and not getting results that i like without a toothbrush being involved every week. Thanks again..... :smt023

[rocketlegacy]

Thanks everyone. couldnt have done it with out everyone's support.


congrats! Do you know who won 1st on the 95-99 legacy?
this guy. he had a FULL 08 STI swap. from the interior to hubs-wheels-brembos. so i feel pretty good taking 2nd to a 30k build. with my small 12k build.

happy to help. you'll still have to agitate with a brush stubborn areas but it turns out great in the end.


whens the new wing coming!?
SHHHHH!!!! :shock:

[Perdue]

That car is nice and all, and I understand he has 30k in it, but he could have at least cleaned it before the show.

[Dead91silvia]

Agreed... I just looked at it in passing and thought, "oh cool, a turbo Legacy"

[Perdue]

Had it been clean, i could have understood taking 1st, but when you put no effort into it...anyways...

[rocketlegacy]

he was also apart of the Outback Automotive crew. who were major sponsors of the event. im not saying that had anything to with it but they did have some presence. 2 guys with WRXs had to even had their "bro's" walk their front bumpers around so they wouldnt scrape. :shock:

Like it! Well kept secret my friend.

Most people, me included, show off what we have on the shelf...which, sometimes leads to post like "wtf, havent you put it on yet!?".

Dead91Silvia, myself and maybe some others know that you like to keep secrets about what is on the agenda though. :lol:

[chrish8r]

does the spoiler have a brake light in it or is it just a slit to see the top brake light???

yep. what size were you thinking?

[rocketlegacy]

Well ive been searching the web for a while to see if this has been done on a second gen. i dont believe it has. so i think im the first. previously i had a 06-07 v-limited lip installed and it looked pretty damn good. so i figured when my car got back from the body shop id try another lip but this time i changed the style up. i chose a 06-07 Charge Speed replica STI lip. when i throw my 18s back on ill go out and get some better pics. enjoy

JDM rear lip arrived today. tomorrow between classes im gonna paint it up to match the other skirts.

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/



Is this a stock JDM GT-B rear lip? Or some aftermarket lip? I have been told that the rear lip and bumper on the JDM GT-B is really all one piece, but I've never seen one in person. Hard to tell from your shots if it is JDM stock or JDM aftermarket. I've been wanting the JDM rear look for ages but can't find any rear GT-B bumpers.

[rocketlegacy]

So I put my 18s back on for summer. I'm really happy with the way the new lip works with the rims. Also as some of you have seen on the eBay listings topics I purchased some RFRB side moldings. So those will be here soon. I'm also expecting to buy coilovers with this next paycheck.

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2013/05/image-1.jpg

[Muse]

So how are you going to paint the RFRB moldings?

[moneymaker9210]

first of all rocket amazing car i to have the second gen as well, mine is the gtb with twin turbo anyways loving the look of your car what lip is that as? im wanting a new lip for mine as mine is pretty beat up!

[rocketlegacy]

Bought my coilovers. They should be here soon.

[Muse]

What are you running right now?

[rocketlegacy]

JDM GTB bilsteins. And H&R wrx sport springs.

[rocketlegacy]

got the RFRB side moldings in the mail. they are amazing. they are gonna so easy to to change the color to red. ive already started scraping the glue off the backs of them.

[fwa2500]

removing the leftover adhesive was what kept me from putting on my standard JDM strips for ages, such a pain in the ass, lol. cant wait to see them on there for real!

[Red85Celica]

Is it just the backside that's painted silver? Is the whole trim piece clear?

[camroncamera]

Is it just the backside that's painted silver? Is the whole trim piece clear?

Clear? Woah, I thought they were aluminum from the look of the photos...

[rocketlegacy]

They are clear my friends. I'm gonna try and work on them again today and Thursday. there's still a thin layer of glue left. So I bought some automotive 3M adhesive remover.

[rocketlegacy]

got my new coilovers the other day. getting them installed today. hopefully i can get an alignment too.

Oh, man. I was a little jealous of you for getting the RFRB moldings... Now I'm extremely jealous... 'Cause I just bought a silver BK.

[ags18]

Nice! Where is the current suspension going?

[Chief]

nice coilovers!!!! waiting for photo

[rocketlegacy]

ive been riding on these for some time now. the ride is only a tad firmer. which is nice.

its this one im still thinking about getting one once the car is painted.

[chromehorn]

Nice. I think I'm getting one to put on my Outback bumper.

[Matty2Hotty]

Had to say... Love this wagon. Maybe I will see you soon at a WCSS or Show soon once I get my rhd wagon done up. I'm thinking of doing a 08+ hood scoop on this model :)

[Cervantes]

I love the way the front lip looks on that car. Looking good man!

[chromehorn]

Finally got mine on too. Thanks for the inspiration.

Great job mate!! The RFRB Side moldings its very cool!! Im very jealous lol

[BG5guy]

been awhile since ive seen this, looking good dude

[rocketlegacy]

Well guys and gals it's that time. The car has taken me so far and I love the damn thing. So it pains me to daily drive it. I'm looking for a Toyota Tacoma 01-04. I'm thinking the car is gonna have to sit for a long time so I can finish my engineering degree. when I do have a real stable career the legacy can come out of hibernation. Hopefully a majority of you folks will hold on to you're legacys like I will be doing. And can watch it transform into the car I want it to be. I will be buying some Status Racing GTX seats within 6months and I think it will be the final mod. I will post up a build thread for the Tacoma when I acquire one. Thanks for everyone's support

[BG5guy]

make sure u wash it from time to time lol

[rocketlegacy]

Well sad day guys I've decided to return my car to stock to sell it. I'll be parting out some things. And keeping a lot. I'll come up with a list of available parts after I give first dibs to my friends.

[couchfuzzy]

Damn, r.i.p to one of my fave wagons... I'll buy some parts off of you

[USDM96SLI]

I agree with couchfuzzy, ill buy some stuff too.

[86bratman]

so many things I'd love to have on this car. I hate that you're getting rid of it though.

[Muse]

Shame, man... I'll definitely try to scrape some cash together and get a few things.

[BG5guy]

I'll buy back the fogs possibly

[datdookie]

Sucks to see this sexy beast go but since you are selling it, how much are you letting it go for, (not to put you in more of your sorrow of loosing her)

[rocketlegacy]

car is staying modded. not selling. family wants to help me get a truck so i dont have to sell my car.

[couchfuzzy]

I am okay with this. Lol

[subaru51390]

good thing you hadn't started parting out yet

[Hinyo]

I am okay with this. Lol

I second that

[86bratman]

I am very much happy for you keeping the car. It would have been a shame to see such beautiful work undone.

[98legwag]

Glad to hear it. Your car is fantastic.

[xoSubieLegacyxo]

WOOHOO!

[subaru51390]

Hey what size are your tires on your summer setup?

[Muse]

This is good news. First, your car is too cool to part out, and second, I would've bankrupted myself trying to get as much of it as I could, had you parted it.

[datdookie]

Woo, that's wassup. Disregard my previous post :)

[Cooper197]

Super happy you aren't selling it!

[rocketlegacy]

thanks guys. for a celebratory car keeping palooza i took some photos. im a little rusty and its a new camera so ive got all summer to get my bearings

I think the car would be perfect with a FMIC, debadged, and deffinetly something for the rear bumper like a diffuser or something

I love the car tho. I love people that mod up BD/BG cars and be innovative because as we all know there isnt nearly as much stuff on the market for these as the GF/GC/GD klans

[Yamazaki]

I know I'm late to the game here, but I am VERY happy to hear that the car isn't going anywhere. This is one of the cars I first became attached to on this forum so it has "sentimental value".

I am loving your updated pictures. I'm submitting this for RotM...

[amgarrety]

Regarding ROTM, I'm hoping my comment doesn't look like I have and bias, but Yamazaki's nomination brought me here because last I heard you were selling it. And I'm just commenting to say thank god you aren't. It would've likely been a sad day for the entire Legacy community.

[N'CTRL]

That's some inspiration right there.. great looking wagon!

[BG5guy]

Looks good, glad your keeping it

Hippo Sleek spoiler arrived. Painting it tomorrow.

[fwa2500]

if we are honest here, hippos arent the sleekest of creatures...


ill be interested to see how it looks all painted and on the car, these have always intrigued me.

Looks good with the hippo spoiler, also when you get the rack spoiler on you should put on a middle spoiler for full insanity (I kid, I kid).

I wanna see that RFRB one on the car. The hippo sleak looks good though, thats a tricky part to find.

[peugoby]

Nice. I like it a lot more than I thought I would.

[yaya]

The hippo sleek looks great on there!

[Matty2Hotty]

Hippo is by far the best spoiler I think personally... Just my opinion.

[Yamazaki]

Hmm, I expected to like it, but I think the RFRB spoiler looks better. Possibly because it matches better with all of the other RFRB stuff on the car... The Hipposleek just looks like it's trying too hard.

[Matty2Hotty]

The Hipposleek just looks like it's trying too hard.

Probably cause it's not painted to match, would be a different story if it was red.

[rocketlegacy]

I'm not completely sold either on the black. If I had red available I would have defiantly gone that route. But black is an easy fix till I can pick up a few gallons of red and get the car painted.

A buddy of mine took a rolling shot with his iphone. I think it turned out pretty good.

One of the best wagon's on SLI for sure,got my vote back when your car was ROTM. A perfect combination of black/red and an awesome choice of rims and front lip. I have to see the rear wing in red though,i think it would look more appealing to the car with your theme...Cheers

[BG5guy]

Great lookin wagon. They really are impressive when they are tricked out. I have a 1990 first gen wagon I am slowly improving, my wife has a 97 outback i bought or $500 and built into basically a new car. She loves it. Anyhow, I tried searching for links in the thread, but can you tell me exactly what rain guards you ordered? I am going to try and see if they will fit my first gen or the wife's outback. Thanks

[blankdeluxe]

What happened to your old RFRB limited grill?

Its sitting in my garage

[Muse]

I'm gonna buck the trend here, and support the black wing. it ties in with the grille, wheels, front lip and side splitters... It wouldn't work if it were the only black thing on the car, but as is, it just adds contrast.

[blankdeluxe]

Its sitting in my garage

Are you just keeping it for a rainy day or trying to maybe get rid of it? And what about that RFRB rack spoiler? Cause I wouldn't mind having one of those.

[rocketlegacy]

Possibly looking to sell the grill. Still not sure if I want to. As for the rack spoiler. No way José

Casey, I'm curious if these BG roof railings will directly swap over onto a BK. I'm thinking about doing this myself. The roof railings look physically lower than the one's on our BK's and generally a little sleeker. Has anyone done this before or have feedback on it?

Car is looking gorgeous as always.

[rocketlegacy]

Not a direct swap. I'm working on another secret project right now Toby. As soon as I'm done I'll start the roof rack. I will say my plan is to cut the OB rails down to the BK length hopefully mount them up cleanly enough so I don't have to weld much.

Thanks bud. Now that I'm for sure keeping the car. I'm going nuts with some fun modifications.

Here they are. 06 Legacy GT seats. First ever in a 2nd gen?

I swapped the rails and custom welded brackets to the new seats frames so they wouldn't sit 3in taller

Those look really nice! Are they power seats? Do they recline and function like factory or are they fixed where they are at? I've thought about these seats a few times. They modernize the cabin a bit. Nice work Casey

[camroncamera]

Very nice! Are they slippery leather or grippier than usual?

[redlegacygt]

aw man you should have done a DIY! My brother has a set of these he may get rid of and i'd love to have them in my car! lol

How was modifying the brackets? Thats why I just got 93 tleg seats in mine for now. I'm too tall for stock brackets

It took a fair amount of welding to get them to match up


aw man you should have done a DIY! My brother has a set of these he may get rid of and i'd love to have them in my car! lol
Yea unfortunately I took zero photos other then installed. I thought about it at the beginning but I got a a little excited and plowed through it.

They slide on my stock sliders. The backs how ever are electric. So I custom made a harness to supply power to the new seat's stock switch and they work great.


Very nice! Are they slippery leather or grippier than usual?
Definitely slippier but with more bolstering

[Perdue]

I have been considering some newer model GT seats I can get locally for cheap, but wasn't sure how they would sit. I can weld, so maybe I can take this on. They look great in there.

[Max626]

Looks great glad to see someone did it, I have a set in my Garage for almost a year just never got around to the install. If you dont mind and have the time post some pics of the work you did to the rails.
