Twoheadedboy's 01' Legacy Wagon (Yossarian) High Miles Club!

[twoheadedboy]

Felt it was about time I made a thread for my Subie. I'll start with why I decided to get a Legacy. My first Subaru was a 95' Impreza L five speed that I got in June of 2010, but sadly after a head gasket leak was found in Dec. 2012 I decided to cut my losses and move on as I felt it wouldn't be the best decision to invest 1000+ into a 17 year old car. I went searching on craigslist and found my current car (very little rust and recent head gasket repair sealed the deal for me). So far I love having a wagon as it gives me more space. Anyways on to the mods:

Exterior:
- Rally Armor mudflaps with Subaru decals
- Legacy Snowflakes (painted white) with Mastercraft Glaciergrip studded snow tires (205/55/16)
- Summer set: 07' Impreza Wheels (painted white) with Yokohama Avid Touring (205/60/16)
- Sickspeed horns
- L7 vinyl overlay badge
- 02-04 WRX muffler
- GT fog lights

Interior:
- Wood and leather trim steering wheel and other wood trim from an L.L Bean edition Outback
- 07-12 WRX shift knob
- Pioneer CD deck
- Infinity Reference Speakers
- Front tweeters
- OEM all weather floor mats
- Racing pedals

Engine and Performance:
- K and N lifetime air filter
- Torque short shifter and pivot bushings
- NGK spark plugs and wires
- Whiteline Steering Rack bushings
- battery tie down painted red
- kartboy crankshaft pulley
- whiteline rear sway bar

Repairs:
June 2013: Clutch Kit, throw out bearing, tranny oil change
October 2013: Coil pack, fuel filter, pcv valve, duralast gold battery
March 2014: timing belt kit +water pump, a/c and power steering belts, rear diff oil change

Future plans: new brake pads and rotors, steel braided brake line

One of the many reasons I love having a wagon!

Nice! But umm... You do know a B4 is a sedan, right?

[Muse]

No, no, no, Robin... That's just showing that the project is nowhere near finished... These are the B4 shots.

Sorry, that was a terrible "joke," and I shall attempt to dodge the many bricks you will doubtlessly be flinging my way.

[twoheadedboy]

Nice! But umm... You do know a B4 is a sedan, right?

Yeah I found out after I put the badge on the car (assuming that B4 was for all Legacys, not just sedans). I'm just gonna keep it on my wagon though, even though it is kinda weird since it's for a sedan, but whatever.

[amgarrety]

Good looking car!

Random note regarding the "B4"... In it's most literal form, the "B" stands for Legacy (B-chassis, of which yours specifically is a BH), and the "4" simply states that your engine is 4 cylinder. So while it never came on a wagon from factory, it's not technically wrong for your car :cool:

Great wagon so far! We have the same color, such a great color! Are those the basic mud flaps from rally armor, I really want some mud flaps.

Thanks! Those are the basic rally armor mudflaps, I just put some Subaru decals from ebay on them.

[twoheadedboy]

Decided to finally post a photo of my BH with JDM tail lights that I got two monthes ago:

Also I got around to cleaning my headliner:

I used folex, which I bought at Bed Bath and Beyond for 8 dollars, and a microfiber cloth.

[Lancaster6]

Folex is such a magical creation, isn't it? I used the same method on my headliner and cargo area carpet and it took so much crap and grime out of it.

Nice build!

Thank you, and I actually found out about folex by reading your build and seeing how well it worked on your headliner!

[Lancaster6]

Sweet! I'm glad it worked out well for you. I took more Folex to my cargo area carpet today and it took even more gunk out. It's some of the best few dollars I've ever spent.

[twoheadedboy]

Today I got my car to the shop to get some repairs and mods done, and included:
- kartboy crankshaft pulley
- gates timing belt kit and oem water pump
- whiteline rear sway bar
- a/c and power steering belts
- oil changed in rear diff.

Last month I found a good deal on a set of 07 Impreza wheels, and since I liked how my snowflakes came out I decided to paint my new set white also. Here's a picutre of them before they went on my wagon

...and a picture of them on the wagon after I gave it a wash yesterday

Last but not least I found some new decals :-)

[twoheadedboy]

So I decided to hop on the bandwagon and get a double auto window switch for my drivers side, and got bored with my dead pedal so I spray painted it silver.

My plan for the wagon from the beginning was to only do projects that I 100 percent knew I could complete and not spend too much money on it. So far I have been successful, and other than pad and rotors and a double din radio for the summer, my plans are to keep the BH the way it is.

[twoheadedboy]

For my 100th post I thought it would be fitting to give a shout out to SL-I and all the great info I've found because of this forum. From the double auto switch, knowing a L.L Bean leather and wood wheel would fit in my wagon, and the inspiration from other members builds. I used to lurk on the Legay GT and NASIOC forums, and this site blows both of them out of the water with the great community!

That is still low mileage for some. Keep up the good work!
