Hey everyone! I see some familiar board names but I figured I should introduce myself. I'm originally from the old school Subaru scene, really haven't had anything newer then a '90 except this one. Found a one owner, '04 Outback Limited sedan with the 3.0 that we ended up getting for the other half and it's pretty fun. It's white on a silverish two tone, not the standard gold like they all have. Just rolled over 100k but it's immaculate. Can't wait to start modifying it to her taste.

Tint, standard suspension and brake stuff will come but for now, here is a picture with my 1989 XT6 which is also a one owner and powered by a 6 cylinder :razz:

Love that XT! Looks super clean! Funny looking cars, but always like them for some reason. That little thing must scoot with that 6 in it!

And your local! Whoo Hoo!

Welcome. IIRC you had an ej22t project in the works as well?

I was also in the process of dropping an EJ22T into my '87 RX but I was having issues with the harness that was removed and partially stripped between 3 people before i got it. I got a newer body for the "RX saga" as this is my third body for this project. First was a black '89 RX coupe, then to my silver '87 "RX coupe, and now I'm rebuilding it in another black '89 RX coupe. The suspension and subframes have been moved from the original project that started back in '04 in Wyoming... I'm working on piecing together a different drivetrain setup but the XT6 needed major attention.

After a full engine reseal with lots of new parts, she also got a complete update to the suspension and braking system. So that took most of the last year away from the RX saga but now that the XT6 is road worthy once again, it's back to the other project.
