New guy from MN

[RS MN]

im joey, and i may be new to this site, but im not new to subarus,

i currently own a 1997 Legacy Brighton, and it is my third subaru.
current mods are as follows:
WRX struts and springs,
tach from a LGT,
previous owner chopped the muffler off the axleback.
blaze orange RS 6 spokes with hankook ipike w409s for the winter, and i am currently on the search for summer wheels and tires.

the only picture i have at the moment is a crappy cell phone picture, but i guess it will do.

plans for this car arent set in stone yet, but i have some thoughts of what she may become.

im glad to have found this site, and hope to contribute what i can to help the community.

Welcome, those rims are bright :shock:

[RS MN]

ive gotten people telling me how awesome they are, and ive also gotten people giving death glares until i drive away.

So how you liking Don's old car? lmk if you ever want some rear disk brakes, i got a set of disk hubs for my brighton, but now i got izzy's old gt shell that i will be using in the future and wont need em anymore.

im liking it alot, although, i do miss my RS, hope hes enjoying it as much as i did!
i would like to do a rear disk conversion, but ive got some other issues with her to take care of first, and i would like to save up some money to have 4/2 pot brakes when i do the conversion.

so are you pulling that eg33 out of the brighton and putting it in the gt?
also, did chux do your harness for that swap? if so, how much did he charge?
ive been thinking about the EG33's and the EZ30R's more and more lately, and they are starting to get really appealing.

Ramsey/Anoka area. I work in South Minneapolis though.

I gotta say, those wheels are... intriguing :P

Chux did Stat's harness.

Just turbo the stock 2.2, we can't all have 3.3's in our cars haha

turboing the 2.2 is actually my plan,
but almost 300WHP NA sounds like tons of fun (and they sound beautiful :smt007 )


i am currently on the search for an up-pipe for my NA manifold, that will put the turbo in the right position for a WRX/STi downpipe/TBE.

also looking for a good VF11.

if anyones got these things, shoot me a PM!

Well hello again, everyone!

Took a break from the forums for a while. In the past months, I traded the Brighton back to don for my rs, then bought an 02 wrx wagon (aspen white), then sold the rs, then earlier today bought a bd7 legacy for my fiancee!

Feels good to be back :p

[phi11]

did you buy palmer's 02 wrx wagon?
nvm, I don't think that you did.

hi!

[RS MN]

No I got mine from a dealership in Fargo, that got it on auction in new Mexico lol.

If anyone knows of any local jdm projectors for cheap, shoot me a pm. The headlights on this leggy arent with repairing/refinishing.

Oh, and hi, phi11!
