Let me know what u guys think

[GTDrifter]

First post woohoo

the ricemobile finally has a build thread!!

[04Legacy]

I'm glad u like it Harry

[GTDrifter]

it needs a tranny swap

[04Legacy]

it needs a tranny swap

NO it doesnot, if u have an extra grand u want to give me to do it then i will

[GTDrifter]

itll cost about $300 if you run to the junkyard...just sayin

[04Legacy]

True, but thats $300 i can put toward other mods like lowering springs and HID's

[GTDrifter]

get those after the swap man

[04Legacy]

if u can find the goods and i can get the funds saved then we can do it

[GTDrifter]

get the funds and well get the goods lol

[04Legacy]

ok sounds like a plan

[Huffer]

You girls need to get a room! :P

Just kidding. Love the color of the car. The intake mod, not so much. A Ganzflow style pipe into the stock air filter box is actually better for these cars - no heat soak on the intake.

[nikolaus.conrad]

itll cost about $300 if you run to the junkyard...just sayin

I picked up my 5 speed for 100 bucks. A diff would be $50 and a driveshaft is like $40. Just throwing that out there.

[04Legacy]

Well that's you Nick. I'm not that lucky finding stuff, unless you consider finding a working 3rd gen 32gb ipod in a neon.

I will have updates in the next two weeks though.

[04Legacy]

So got my steelies today and decided to paint a rim to see what it would look like.
The picture does no justice to what the real color of it is

Let the hating commence!!

[GTDrifter]

[insert hate with profanity here]
dont wanna get banned for making Nic cry lol

[04Legacy]

You just hate on me for every thing I do to my car. I'm not going to do a tranny swap just to make you happy. When I'm ready I will get the parts to do it.

[Okin DaVanh]

Good for you, as it is your car after all. I get the same comments from people who think I have this imaginary money tree. Go at your own pace and I happen to kno that Harry is just playing. It does get a little out of hand when it's posted consistently in your personal thread. Keep modding the way you want, and other things will happen down the road.


A Ganzflow style pipe into the stock air filter box is actually better for these cars - no heat soak on the intake.

And this is sooooooooooo true.

[04Legacy]

Well I have a couple of mods at home that I'm waiting to do and some that I still need to order. I have a vision for this car and its going to take some time. Prolly like 2 or 3 years to have everything that I want done to it.

Yea i found it that the stock air box does better for city driving than for highway. I can get about 2-3 more miles in the city with the stock set up, but im getting about 2-3 more mpg on the highway with the sri. I think if I built a heat shield it would be a lot better.

[04Legacy]

Finished up painting the rims this afternoon and here is what they look like

http://a3.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/s320x320/421186_343113645709429_100000323905230_1184208_33228670_n.jpg

So either Thursday or Friday the tires will be mounted up and be put on the car.

[SativaMan04]

Nice BE!! Can't wait to see those wheels. What color is that?

[04Legacy]

Thanks. The color of the Steelies are Metallic Rich Caramel.

[04Legacy]

So got the tires mounted on the rims and put on the car. Enjoy guys!!! :smile:

Also Finally installed 8,000k HIDS. They are not the dark blue and ricey look, they are the blue with white tent or white with blue tint, but i can say i can actually see better at night, then with the stock halogen lights

[02_Legacy]

Also Finally installed 8,000k HIDS. They are in the stock halogen housings so they are rice and dangerous because they blind oncoming cars, but i can say i can actually see better at night, then with the stock halogen lights
Fixed it for you

[dodik]

what he means is, you basically running hi-beam HID, always. lol

[Huffer]

HID's in stock halogen housings is a no-no. You THINK you can see more but all you've done is blind oncoming traffic.

good call, nic's english is worse than a newborn's

[04Legacy]

Actually the hids i have in the car are the ones that move the bulb up and down not the ones that ones that have a flap in the bulb to switch from low beam to high beam. I have the actual Bi-xenon Dual Beam hl/low beam bulbs.

BTW Harry you have no room to talk cause you have done the same thing.

[xoSubieLegacyxo]

Andrew I think you were already told NOT to put HIDS in stock Halogens. And don't throw Harry into this beacuse at least his headlights were designed with projectors.

Steve posted this on your facebook and it needs to be brought up again.


"The Kelvin scale is only a scale of color, as you go up it you loose light."

4300k= White/yellow
5000k= White
6000k= White/slight blue
7000k= Blue
8000k= Blue/slight purple
9000k= Purple
10000k+ = RETARDED

Mine are either the 6 or 7k's they are not the blue like harry's, they are a lighter color. And i can bring harry in this cause he put hids in his halogen lights. Now since he jot his jdm lights which HAS A PROJECTOR in them, he can use the hids. Also mike does the same thing, dont start giving me crap when you know to other people who have done/ are doing the same thing.

[04Legacy]

Okay just to make everyone happy, i will go out and take a pic of the lights and show you what they look like! After that idc what anyone thinks of them, i like them and that's all that matters.

[amgarrety]

Guys, I don't really want to get in the middle of this, but this isn't NASIOC. Don't bash someone's build. Its his car, and he has his right to build it the way he wants.

I personally like being a Subaru driver because Subaru drivers are some of the nicest people on the road, whether you drive a STI or a Legacy. Don't start giving Legacy drivers a bad rep, we're all friends here. To each his own style.

If you have criticism, that's ok, but like I said, it's his car. If you don't like it, don't do it to your car.

Don't let this site fall victim to the fate of NASIOC. Keep it nice guys.

[MRLancaster]

Amen

[Wiscon_Mark]

Okay, I'm now going to unlock this thread - everyone's been warned about the fighting/bashing. We'll have none of that here. Constructive criticism is allowed, but let's keep it positive please. If it becomes a problem again, temporary bans may have to be enforced.

*Note* - the offending negative & arguing posts referred to have been deleted, so things may look slightly fragmented. I did the best I could to not take away any useful content.

[ampped88]

awesome thread and i agree with tanner and Michael Garrety !! let's keep it productive not destructive..

[beeda]

EDIT: I don't like the lights

[amgarrety]

The problem with HIDs is they don't focus well when reflected by a normal halogen housing. Im honestly not exactly sure why, I mean, in it's most simple form, the HID and halogen bulb do the same exact thing - they produce light. I know HIDs are often brighter, but there is a difference in the light too, and you can tell just by looking at it.

All that aside, here is the problem with HIDs in your current light housings. You have the single Hi/Lo housing, which means your reflector in the back is doing the job of both the high beam and low beam reflectors. The only thing that changes when you flick on your high beams is the light intensity. Since HIDs are naturally brighter, it's like having your hi beams on all the time, and there is just no way to fix that because that reflector in the back still has to do the job of both the high and low beam.

Personally, I switched to the GT lights for that exact reason. I wanted the low beams to actually have a cutoff, like they should, and I wanted the high beams to throw further, and they do now. I still wouldn't run HIDs unless you had projectors, but it would be more suitable in the GT lights because you won't directly blind people with your low beams.

I mean, some of it comes down to personal preference and how you want your car to look, but there is also that factor that if you are getting flashed often by oncoming cars, there is a hint to be taken there.

Dalton (drtylggy) has HIDs in his single bulb housings, and I don't think they look too bad. I think he has the 35W, which is definitely what I would recommend if you insist on running HIDs. 55W are almost too much for even projectors, let along halogen reflectors. I don't know how the Hi/Lo bulbs work, but if you have an option between 55W and 35W, do 35W.

[04Legacy]

I have driven the car now with hids for over a week and now one has flashed me. I have driving past a handful of cops and still no problems from them.

1. Thing you have to consider is what k rating you are getting. If you get a rating that is close to what stock cars have in them now and the color that the newer cars with projectors have you will have no problem from any one because they believe that is the stock color that the car comes with. 4,300-6,000k is what you want to have for driving lights. Because they are the most stock looking colors to you and to other drivers on the road.

2. There is no reason to go above 8,000k for hids unless you want to irritate other drivers on the road and make yourself look like a dick.

3. Actually some halogen reflector housings can run hids without blinding other drivers. It also helps to but a stock looking color in them too. Yes projectors help reflect the light better, but it doesn't mean they are better. It all depends on what kind of headlight and reflector housing you have.

I myself believe if you get the k hid and properly get your headlights aligned, then you will not have a problem with them, the police, or upset drivers.

I also will be doing some testing tonight and later this week on the dispersion of the light from inside of the car from the drivers aspect and some from outside of the car from the opposing drivers aspect. And will be posting those pics and some of the actually hid bulb in the headlight and out of it to show the difference in the bi-xenon dual beam bulbs and the ones that only have a switch/flap in the bulb to show what the actual dual beam bulbs are.

[04Legacy]

At the request of Wiscon_Mark I took some pic of the hids from inside and outside of the car. I'll try to get a dispersion picture later in the week.

Let me know what you think.

[drtylggy]

HID's in stock halogen housings is a no-no. You THINK you can see more but all you've done is blind oncoming traffic.



So how can we do a retro fit? I say we because I have the setup. Or would JDM HID headlights work?

[chuckthefuk]

JDM housings are the same as halogen housings..

[amgarrety]

JDM housings are the same as halogen housings..

Except i've never heard of a single bulb dual intensity HID setup using a single reflector, as Nic's light housings are. All the JDM lights are dual lights and dual reflectors. Like I said, the single reflector is doing the job of low AND high beams. Thats why I argue that HIDs in a single bulb housing are a bad idea. It's like constant high beams if the bulb is bright enough.

I mean, correct me if im wrong, but i've never seen a Japanese car with the 9004 hi/lo setup using HIDs from factory.

[Yamazaki]

I mean, correct me if im wrong, but i've never seen a Japanese car with the 9004 hi/lo setup using HIDs from factory.
You are not wrong.
And even the separate hi/lo housings are different between HID and halogen. Althought the difference seems so minor that most people don't notice....

I don't have an opinion either way on the matter, I'm just giving some facts here.

[chuckthefuk]

I do not agree with you when the HID used is a Bi-xenon that is motorized..

I have seen this setup in action on multiple halogen housings..

Anyway's to each their own..

[04Legacy]

The way that my HID's work is that there is a magnet at the bottom of the bulb housing when lows are on the bulb stays extended out, when the high's are turn on the magnet sucks the bulb into the bulb housing.

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2012/02/9007_BiXenon_HID_bulb-1.jpg

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
this is what i have in my car

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2012/02/HID_bulb_9007_Bi_xenon-1.jpg
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
These bulbs are the ones that have a flap in the bulb itself that switch the lighting for the hi/lows, these are not the true bi-xenon hids.

[rougeben83]

Yeah, that mechanism is nothing new, what chuck is saying is that the action doesn't really give you "high" beam, it just moves the already out of focus capsule to a different location, changing the location of the hotpot.

Anyway, I had HID's in the L headlamp as a first attempt, like I've said in other threads, the sheer light output of them HID capsule just overpowers the bad focus and makes everything look brighter. However, particularly on the L lamps, they tend to throw hotspots pretty badly, partly due to the HID capsule not being the same length as the 9007 bulb and because of the mediocre reflector design subaru used.

HID's coupled to the proper projector/reflector blows any "retrofit" out of the water because the tremendous lumen output of the HID's are being focused/distributed properly.

Also, 8000k will make it particularly hard to see in inclement weather, the bluer the light spectrum, the less contrast there is between objects. 4000k-5000k really is the most optimal temperature since its...wait for it...the same temp as daylight, which is what the human retina has been optimized to see at. But aside from the science, I had 6000k bulbs before on another setup and even that slight change made it hard for me to make out the difference between objects during rain and fog at night.

[04Legacy]

So I'm thinking about getting a new set of wheels for the summer. What do you guys think about the 2000-04 BH wheels on the BE's??

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2012/02/ipzCR_640480-1.jpg

^^^^^^^^^
Same design but gold outline in color

Or should I try to find the 03-04 LGT wheels, 2002-05 WRX wheels, or 2005-09 LGT wheels??

Also I can get another set of snowflakes locally if i want for really really cheap!!

Let me know what you think!!

[SativaMan04]

I say 05-09LGT or 06-07WRX wheels. 18's would be perfect, but tire is expensive. 17's fill up the gap a little more. I don't like those outback rims because it's not sporty enough for me on a Legacy. It looks good on an outback though.

[geckoboy86]

Outback wheels are heavy!

[04Legacy]

I'm trying to get an idea of what OEM wheels would look good on the BE's. I haven't found any aftermarket wheels that i like other than the snowflake design.

[Thatonejawn]

I'm trying to get an idea of what OEM wheels would look good on the BE's. I haven't found any aftermarket wheels that i like other than the snowflake design.
I have a set of 17' OEM wheels from a USDM WRX (Legacy GTB E-tune 2 in Japan). They are relatively cheap on ebay and would look clean on your BE.

[04Legacy]

Took some pics of me and my friends Subaru's this afternoon. All in the same group, which doesn't have all Subaru's.

[04Legacy]

So I saw another Legacy like mine with custom made eyelids and decided I wanted to do the same since I would some free time on my hands to work on the Legacy so I did just that. Not a major update but one that was kind-of fun to do.

What started out like this:
http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/419744_364681253552668_100000323905230_1240068_1653222497_n.jpg

Finished like this:

http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/420239_364681433552650_855576520_n.jpg

Can't complain since it was very simple to do and didn't cost anything!!! :grin:

[GTDrifter]

if that's only tape read the thread below and pull them off. the heat from your headlights will probably melt the tape
https://sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=22905

[Kansei]

be careful putting tape on your headlights. it can cause them to crack due the the expansion when they heat up. but nevertheless they do look good.

[blanquelm92]

make em permanent with Krylon fusion for plastic

[rhdlegacydrvnguy]

Looking good !

[04Legacy]

Here are some better pictures for you guys!!! And Thanks for the compliments!!!! This is only a mock up template design until I can get some made out of fiberglass or vinyl.

She is finally getting to were I want her, slowly but surely. :grin:

Should have some nice goodies done to her in the next two weeks with the help from MRLancaster and some local HS Subaru buddies. :wink:

[04Legacy]

Went out and took some pics of the eyelids cutoff!!! Let me know what you think!!

Hopefully getting this made up in vinyl this week in black and color matched. Also will be making another decide that doesn't go all the way down to the bottom of the light, prolly more like straight across the top.

[04Legacy]

So the mods I was hoping to get this week with the help of MRLancaster will have to wait till spring/summer :smt010 :smt022

I HATE SHIPPING COMPANIES WHY MUST IT BE SO EXPENSIVE!!!!!! :smt013

Well at least I can get one part of my exhaust done in the up coming week :wink:

I'll keep everyone updated, the Legacy will be a little different then as it sits right now :grin:

[blanquelm92]

How's it going with the eyelids? Any vinyl yet... Haha that pattern
Really looks dope I like it

[04Legacy]

Thanks, yea i got color matching vinyl today. All I need to do is trace the pattern over to it and she will be looking good.

[04Legacy]

I have started my weekend/week long projects for the Legacy. Ill post updates as soon as i can. She will look different, then some of the above pics.

[STIdarkside]

Have you seen the SYMs eyelids? Check out NDTO's thread, I would model your DIY homemade eyelids to the same shape... Flows better with the body line on the fender and the hood/bumper. Just my 2 cents though...

[04Legacy]

Well I finished Day 1 of the week long mod-fest. Pics will be up but ill let you guys find out what i did wahahaha.

When i started out this afternoon

[chuckthefuk]

[amgarrety]

I agree with chuck.

Also, what else did you do? I don't wanna miss anything :razz:

[04Legacy]

I agree with chuck.

Also, what else did you do? I don't wanna miss anything :razz:

I added a mesh bumper grille, 3000K halogen foglight bulbs, painted my hood grille and I'm painting the stock wheels. I also have someother things to add when I can get a chance to get up to my uncles garage to use his welder and lift. :smile:

[chuckthefuk]

oh now I see what the zip ties are for ;-p

[amgarrety]

Movin' right along! I approve.

[04Legacy]

Thanks guys!!! Once i get the grille and the painted snowflakes back on her, She will look so sexy!!!!
All i need now is a Integra Type R Lip and the exterior well be done, except for 2-3 sets of wheels.

[04Legacy]

Phase 2 is completed!!!! Wheels are all painted and I'll let them harden up for the next day or two. I should have them on this weekend. I'll post a teaser pic if there is enough interest if not you all will see this weekend. Wahahahahaha now all I need to do is complete Phase 3 are she will sound and look like sex. :grin: :wink:

Also painted grille is on her and it makes her look so much better.

She also was given the name of "Joy" this week. So she will be known as Joy instead of Legacy

[04Legacy]

[04Legacy]

So me and my buddy decided to work on his car tonight and he so badly wants my painted snowflakes. So i teased him and put the rim up next to his car to see what it would look like. I think i might be out of a set of rims. :smt022

Ill post up more pics later in the week

[chrish8r]

The red lugs really pop on those white wheels. car looks clean and i think i saw it once at a longs park meet a while back

[04Legacy]

Thanks. I was at the meet, she looks a lot different now. Hopefully this summer she will look lots better.

[amgarrety]

Yeah, the red lug nuts definitely look good on white wheels and a red car.

[04Legacy]

Just to give everyone an update. Joy will be getting some new additions to her in the next week or two. :wink: One is something that a couple of members on here have been razzing me about since it got her, and the other is to help her drive and look alittle better. :glasses2: <----Step 1 of 2 for Autox :grin:

Also should be getting some nice goodies from Reason :grin:

Thanks Michael, the red lugs do make the white wheels look good on the car, breaks up the color a little bit. Looking to get another set of red lugs just dont know what style yet. Now all i got to do is paint the calipers red, might be upgrading to drilled and slotted rooters pending on how much and how hard of autox i do.

[04Legacy]

Small little update for you guys. I sold the WRX exhaust that had been sitting around for too long to my buddy, and pick up a set of WRX wheels for autox. Going a different approach with Joy right now because I want to work on mods for autox. Also you will have to wait for the color of these rims, some will like it and some will not, but o well. Plus i will be posting pics and videos of my autox runs.

[geckoboy86]

What performance mods do you have planned to get her ready for autox?

[04Legacy]

hopefully lowering springs or coilovers, and front and rear sway bars

[geckoboy86]

Nothing to increase power, or help with braking?

[04Legacy]

I want to do breaking after i do a couple of events this year. Prolly do DBA drilled and slotted rotters with hawk hps pads. Power upgrades don't help unless you can put it to the ground.

[04Legacy]

Just a minor update, I got a set of 02-03 WRX rims for autox!! I finally picked out the color which will stay on the DL untill I have all if the rims done. I just got done painting the center caps and will be letting them cure/harden for the next few days before clearing them. Also I have some surprise parts that I also painted tonight. You guys will like the color of them, when they are all done.

[04Legacy]

Just a little update for you guys. I just finished up sanding down my summer wheels, and JB welded them too. Will be sanding down the JB welded areas, and priming them tomorrow as well. Hoping wheels will be painted by the end of the week.

[Reason]

Wait, JB weld on your rims? Why?

[Yamazaki]

Okay, I've just searched this entire thread for some pics of your interior...

Why are you holding out on us? I want to see what you've done to the inside of this BE9. :smt006

[04Legacy]

Wait, JB weld on your rims? Why?

Because i am fixing some curbage and nicks that are on the rims, i could have either used jb weld or body filler!!


Okay, I've just searched this entire thread for some pics of your interior...

I am holding out because i have some nice goodies for her and also because i like to keep stuff on the dl, its much more fun this way for me :grin:

[04Legacy]

Just a little update, all of the rims are all sanded down and primered. The JB Weld did a FANTASTIC job fixing the curbage and nicks. :grin:

It also helps when your neighbor worked in a body shop years ago :cool:

Tomorrow they should all be scuffed up and ready for (3x) paint. :wink:

P.S. xoSubieLegacyxo, GTDrifter, and nikolaus.conrad will have a chance tonight to look at the center caps of what the color will look like since they have been painted a week :wink:

Thanks for the edit chad!!

[nikolaus.conrad]

Whatever, Harry didn't even show up.

[04Legacy]

Another update rims are all painted and they look really really good. :grin: hoping that I can clear them either tomorrow or Saturday. Also Nik and Chad got to see the color last night at the meet. Even though they only got to see it on the center caps. I got all thumbs up which is nice to see for once. :smt023

Sad part is I have to order new tires before I can put them on my car :smt022 :cry: :smt010 so it looks like I won't have them on the car for the Performance and Style show liked I hoped. But hopefully they will be on for the York meet and eat on the 18th :smile:

[chrish8r]

date fail!!! 19th man.....havent seen your car in person since that meet at longs park a while back, cant wait to see the color you picked for those wheels

[04Legacy]

Yea FAIL on my part!!! :smt021 the wheels look really good!! I'm excited for the next meet, I'm hoping to have my new tires for them, if not I'll bring the rims with me to show you guys!!

[xoSubieLegacyxo]

I KNOW WHAT COLOR THEY ARE! :smt026

[04Legacy]

Yes you do Chad :cool: keep it on the DL until I put pics up!!!

[04Legacy]

Here you guys go who have been waiting to see the color of my Summer wheels!!! Enjoy!! This is without a clear coat!!

Paint looks good, I don't know about that color on a red car though. To each his own though, I'm thinking about getting bright green rims which I think some others would say the same about lol.

But im up to any suggestions on how to fix it :wink:

[amgarrety]

Although I think you have an absurd amount of rims, I have to admit that I like what you do with them. I also like that you do stuff that should look hideous, and it actually ends up looking pretty cool.

Also, very good paint job on those rims!

[amgarrety]

I decided not to lower. It would be more trouble than it's worth where I live. I just want to do a small lip to create the illusion that I'm lower than I actually am.

[chrish8r]

Try the garage door seal lip...I heard if done right, it looks like a real lip

[StatGSR]

where did you buy this lip at? the reason i ask is because that's not what an "actual" 94-97 integra type r front lip looks like (trust me on this)

USDM 98+ top, USDM 94-97 bottom
https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2012/05/1994L-1.jpg

the lip you have is actually a civic type r style lip, designed to fit on a 94-97 integra. Big difference! ;-)

I got mine at Carlisle it says 94-97 Integra Type R front Lip on the package. Also no one every had pics of what kind of front lip they had when they mounted them on the bumpers, i was taking a shot in the dark!! Couldn't I just cut the top of the lip where it would bolt up to the integra bumper off so it would sit flush on the bumper??

This is the exact lip that i got!!

You could also cut off the bottom of your bumper to make it match up :smt023

You know what that doesn't sound like a bad idea. :eek: Thanks for the idea Nic. Also not like i have a good front bumper anyway, its all ziptied up :smt005

[StatGSR]

This is the exact lip that i got!!


i see, even that picture shows the 2 different lips! lol

the one on the car is accurate, the lip below the car, doesn't match the one on the car.

in any case, i just wanted to clarify the situation in case people were looking to do something similar to you.

[04Legacy]

Yea good point! Could I just cut the top part of the lip where it is flat off and make it like the once that are supposed to be on the integra's?

[ndto]

Maybe I could shine some light on the front lip fitment,

I have the same bumper and lip, you will have to trim the front two corners of the lip. Im talking more specifically the surface that folds in at the top, once you trim that part down you should be able to wrap the lip around the sides of the bumper and fasten in the center as well as in the wheel wells.

Okay, Thanks ndto!!! By any chance do you have new pics of the front lip, and some of the installation process???

I really like this lip on the 3 gen legacy's and really badly want it to fit good!

Also how are you doing ndto, MR.Lancaster (Tanner) just saw your car on scraped crusaders facebook page. Car looks good :smt023

[MRLancaster]

Do what he said. Just cut the sides and then line it up until everything lines up right.

[04Legacy]

Yea I will, Its still a work in progress!! Also Hoping to get some nice JDM goodies from a member on here!! :smile:

I'll keep everyone updated about the front lip! I can tell you that I am already scraping with it and I'm not even lowered. :smt022 I just have to learn how to drive it like it is a lowered car now.

Small update got forced to fix the rust on my trunk by only painting it then putting the wing back on. :smt011 The trunk looks like utter SHIT!! :smt013 My parets wouldnot let/ allow me to buy a new wingless trunk to have my wing trunk fixed for the rust and have the badge holes welded up. But what do I know, the rust is just going to come back and make it look worse! :smt010 I should just make them buy me a new trunk and have them pay for it to be fixed since it needs to last me 3 more years!! I wonder if my rear quarter panels will last that long since the are bubbiling up pretty nicely in 2 spots in each side.

Well my luck just went from bad to worse today!! Got my Inspection and found some things that i really didnot want to find!!

List
1. Head Gaskets are leaking externally after just being done 20k ago
2. Oil Drain plug leaking even though its tight, I mean TIGHT (also has a brass or copper o-ring on it, fluids were fine)
3. Transmission filter was loose and leaking oil all over the Tranny pan ( check fluids and were fine)
4. Oil residue on my driver side rack and pinion
5. Flange on my second cat is gone (completely rusted away)
6. Exhaust donut between 2nd cat and midpipe gone
7. Need a whole new exhaust system and/ or new Cat before putting on my uel header

Not a very good day, and not a very happy camper :smt013

[nikolaus.conrad]

Ouch! I'm sorry to hear that! Were your heads not torqued to the right spec? On the bright side, you'll need to pull the engine anyways to replace your oil pan :wink:

[04Legacy]

Ouch! I'm sorry to hear that! Were your heads not torqued to the right spec? On the bright side, you'll need to pull the engine anyways to replace your oil pan :wink:

I have no clue. The dealer that I bought the car from does the t-belts, HG's, and water pump. My dad told me that they also rebuilt number 1 and 2 cylinders. They were not that way last year when I check them so i'm guessing either the heads are bad, used bad gaskets, or torque specs are wrong. I need this to last me 3 more years through college. I have no idea how long the hg's will last. Either 6moths or a year.

[chrish8r]

The dealer coupd have re used the head bolts. I just learned that they should only be used once. Because they are "torque-to-yield" l. Thwy actually stretch and expand to securely fit. I guess we learn something new all the time.

Well hopefully you get that all fixxed in a timely and cost efficient manner

[nikolaus.conrad]

Just throw in a 2.2, you'll be fine!

[04Legacy]

yea hopefully if not im going to let her sit, sell her, or fix her. If i have to let her sit, ill buy a beater to get me to and from college. If they go, im going to redo the whole dang engine, new seals, gaskets, bolts etc for everything. im not going to cheap out on the motor.

I dont know what they did, they have told us that they use the heads from other cars that they take off that have already been machine etc, so that the car doesnot have to sit on the lot. I say bs to that cause then your not keeping original motor parts. I dont care if its cost effective, keep the same parts with the original motor.

[04Legacy]

Just throw in a 2.2, you'll be fine!

yea i can get one cheap, but id still need to do all the stuff to that motor

[98legwag]

Did the dealer give you some sort of warranty? Even if not, it sounds like they did a poor job. If they won't cover some of the costs you should look into taking it somewhere else.

[04Legacy]

They only warranty they had was a 3 month/4k. My parents are like wait till it goes then fix it. smh

[04Legacy]

Just a heads up for you guys have been keeping this on the DL. Installed my UEL headers and had a custom exhaust made for the Lego. I LOVE the sound of it, finally sounds like a proper Subaru.

[04Legacy]

So today i decided to fix my heat shields on the lego that were rattling and driving me nuts. Well the Lego had other plans for me :smt013

It's a import muffler

[xoSubieLegacyxo]

Well it's going to rip off at that height. Get that fixed!

[04Legacy]

It's actually tucked up under the bumper. Actually had to cut the bumper to back it fit.

[nikolaus.conrad]

So wait, you had to take off your front lip to get to the heat shields? :lol:

[GTDrifter]

the exhaust wasn't done right nic. if amgaretty (spelling) could fit his exhaust and make it look good then this should not have been a problem.

also if your lip broke off going up on ramps you should have ziptied it. that's how mines held on and half of it was ripped off after my car went over a parking block (long story and not my fault...i wasn't even driving) all I had to do was replace the zipties. Fix the fart can

can't believe you're not gonna be at the meet.

[MRLancaster]

You need to get some far away pics of the back of the car to see how it sits

[04Legacy]

I'll have pics. This is one reason why I haven't said anything for over a month about it.

[redlegacygt]

yeah there's noway that should be facing downward like that. The only reason would be because the muffler is too wide, but that shouldn't be the case..

[MRLancaster]

In the future, dont use ramps if you have a lip, or lowered. I never use ramps for that exact reason. It's impossible to get it onto ramps

[MRLancaster]

I think it looks like its facing down because the front is on ramps...

[04Legacy]

Actually the car is not on ramps its on the side of a hill. Also I couldnot use ramps, and I didn't feel like jacking it up.

yeah that's still pretty low and i think its because how big that muffler is. that thing is huge under there..haha

[GTDrifter]

I'm not allowed to say anything mean so lets see if I can do this:
it should have at least been angled upward...its a subaru thing

[redlegacygt]

lol and let me be clear, my comments are not to be taken to be mean or negative in anyway. If you wanted to put a diesel stack for an exhaust i dont care, its your car..lol also, did you just put the muffler on or did the whole exhaust get changed? also, why worry about the heatshield with the new headers? did i miss something?

[GTDrifter]

There's heat shields above the midpipe so maybe that's what he meant?

also I'm trying not to sound mean...its just my nature

[04Legacy]

It's a custom 2.25" catback exhaust, UEL Header, and I had the muffler laying around. I was fixing the heat shields on the cats.

[GTDrifter]

how did you fix them? wedge wood screws in between?

[04Legacy]

No :smt011 I put a new clamp on the one and tightened the other one that was loose.

[GTDrifter]

wood screws work....or just remove them

[Perdue]

I wonder if you couldn't use a dremel and a steady hand to cut a half circle cutout in the part of the bumper that tucks inward at the bottom to buy you a couple inches for clearance? I'm not bashing you...I have a tsudo exhaust waiting to go on the BD. I just don't wanna see ya rip the muffler off on the road and do damage and/or lose your investment.

[04Legacy]

Tried a dremel and it melted the plastic. Also tried tin snips and that didn't work. Had to use a saws all to cut the opening that is stock on the bumper. The muffler is as far up as we could get it with out having to cut a lot out of the bumper. It sits flush with the bumper.

[chuckthefuk]

Need to cut plastic bumpers? Cut Off Wheel is the tool for the job

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2012/08/0910phr_19_z1966_ford_mustangcutoff_whee-1.jpg

Small diameter discs and no shield will do the trick. (always wear eye protection / face protection .. plastic heats up and turns in to molten liquid plastic!!)

Tape off area with masking tape / draw cut out line on masking tape / Cut / Shape / Angle the cut off wheel on a 45 degree and smooth out the edges / peel tape / done

I know nic lol. the bottom part was to give nik some ideas on what other tools he could use.

Nik you can use a dremel...the plastic will melt a little where you're cutting it but won't melt the entire bumper.

FIXED IT! :smt005 I would use a pair of tin snips because it doesn't melt the plastic, and you wont have any mess.

[GTDrifter]

but it's more work..just go for the dremel

[xoSubieLegacyxo]

but it's more work..just go for the dremel

how? no battery power, no melting plastic, and no shavings. I cut up broken bumpers all the time at work with tin snips, and I've never had to say "that was a lot of work."

the lights look great! I had to cut some of my rear bumper when i was trying to fit my dual tip muffler on. partially because in order for it to be welded straight, it had to clear the hole, and because the tips would've touched the factory cut out space so I dremeled out alot of it. even now, at some angles, it looks slanted but whatever. I cant do anything about it now. it fits the best it can fit.

I know you would love to see it lifted and with grabbers. Unfortunately I'm in the lowered scene right now. I'm thinking about going up to the gaps on friday night.

We are all located in Lycoming County, Williamsport; Jersey Shore; Muncy; Watsontown.

i'm usually up for a ride and usually so is my brother but not sure about the gas money situation. i only get paid every 2 weeks. but just remember i have some roads down my way as well(pine creek area) but not as many as the gaps. what i like about up in pine creek is that their are about 3 overlooks that are pretty cool.

Back from a long hiatus, and have some updates to make. Updated Mods list. Picture heavy
Also installed a NAPA The Legend battery after my old one died. Who knew a battery with 550cca would make a difference.
Also 110 amp alts and a grounding kit make a huge difference as well. Running 15 volts.

Nice water pump. Let me know how your engine likes it lol

[04Legacy]

lol I'll let you know when i find a deep enough puddle and that's what the bypass valve is supposed to eliminate from happening (hopefully).

[Navi271]

Wow, that's a really nice CAI!

You shouldn't have to worry too much about water since you haven't gotten rid of your fender liners and such. You just can't go into pools of water, oh well, you should probably avoid them anyways... Water can still get back there seeping around the fog lights, but otherwise should be fine.

[nikolaus.conrad]

I dig the red, glad to see your back on the forums!

[amgarrety]

Damn that engine bay actually looks really good. I need to follow your lead for a bit haha

Any further info on that stuff? I find it hard to find good intake parts for our cars.

Thanks! Yup hopefully shouldn't have to worry, but that is why I got the bypass valve. Just in case I decided to go swimming lol.


I dig the red, glad to see your back on the forums!

Thanks and so do I the crinkle red does stand out and look really good. A little time away did some good, plus I wanted to keep somethings on the DL.

Thanks, its getting there. Yea intake stuff is very hard for our cars, the CAI system is actually a FMIC kit from a WRX. Sometimes you just have to go for style points and make your own. Took a little bit to mock it up and and make it all fit and work perfectly. Still have a few little ideas for the intake setup. I can tell you that I didn't cheap out on the custom setup. Spent a little extra more to make it a little better looking and better performing.

I will give away that there will be some more engine bay additions that will help it look better. I have a few ideas in mind and tricks up my sleeve so stay tuned. :twisted: :wink:

Also shout out to GTDrifter (Harry) for fixing my front lip for me, really appreciate it Harry!!!!!!

[GTDrifter]

No problem. You just gotta be careful with it

[04Legacy]

I will, gonna take better care if it this time around.

[04Legacy]

Thanks! I forgot how awesome the white wheels look on her.

[04Legacy]

Nothing major to update, ordered some more goodies for her. Also gave her a nice hot bath tonight. Gonna give her an oil change, hopefully install her skirts and install her undercarriage protection.

[04Legacy]

Ordered some new to me but used Hella 500 FF's and got them yesterday and also did a little photoshot while I was at the golf course.

Also tried to install my lowering springs and lets just say that it didnot happen. She decided to be a little pisspot. So now I have ordered all new components for the lowering springs setup. Hopefully will have them in next weekend.

Got bored today and decided to install my Carbon Fibre shift boot and 5spd trim with darker wood grain:
