Hey I figure i should introduce myself. My name is Jerome and I stumbled upon this site not to long ago. I just bought a 2002 Subaru Legacy L but im definitely not new to the Subaru scene.

this was my first impreza
-red 1998 sedan L

my second impreza is the red coupe in the background of the above pick. This later turned into my project ej20g impreza. learned a lot
- 1995 subaru impreza LX - red painted graphite grey

I actually did the wiring merge with a friend. NEVER AGAIN!

eventually sold that to go back to school.

-had a 1995 green L sedan that was rusted to hell. never took pics

- then bought a 1996 agean blue lx

This 1996 lx i bought for an xbox 360 and it got me through nursing school. I was now in the predicament of spending a lot of money modding this impreza or going a different route.


Which now brings me to here:
my ugly ass 2002 Legacy L. So i sold my impreza and started this project.

Im currently going to make it a comfortable daily driver till i get another car.
here is how it sits today:

Funny story; they came with the car, but there are some coils another user is selling that are a great deal. viewtopic.php?f=22&t=24870 (https://sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=24870) another user is interested but put a word in for seconds. Put in a post on the suspension thread I'm not sure if the 01 impreza springs will fit your car.

yea i think i want springs jsut cause this is my daily driver. Coil overs would be too harsh. Yea I ahve to see if impreza springs can work. I have a few old springs i can play with from my old GC
