View Full Version : How's it going people?

Hey guys, just thought I'd introduce myself.

I'm Rohit, 18, and from Auckland, New Zealand.
I'm quite partial to the Legacy, and had a BC5 GT sedan for a year and a bit, before someone decided to jump a red light in front of me one night after work.
Insurance+savings= Me buying my dad's old car, a '97 GT-Bspec wagon. Fairly standard for now, exhaust/air filter and, because I'm too lazy to bother changing it, a really loud BOV that came with the car from Japan when my old man bought it. It's boosting ~13/14 psi, and it still scares me at times.

That's about it from me, gotta say these forums look pretty good, and I think I'll stick around for a while.

Welcome! Glad to see some more people from across the pond. The bigger pond. Sorry to hear about your car. Get some pics up of your current and former ride.

Hi! :cool:

Good to see more Legacy members from down under; most of our older ones deserted us.

Not really a big picture taker, but here's a couple I dug up.

Old sedan, with me needing a shave big time (Movember, long story):

Nothing too special, but I'll get some more photos in a bit.

Cheers for the comments guys, much appreciated.
And about the wheels, they're standard JDM GT-B wheels, as is the rest of the kit.

And these wheels are pretty common here, and if you can live with minor kerbing, they are pretty cheap too. Not too sure if I'm allowed to link to auctions, but http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Car-parts-accessories/Wheels-tyres/Alloy-wheels/auction-63819480.htm

I love that wagon. The black sedan looks like it's seen some action and is ready for more. :lol:

Anyway...

Sorry to hear about the sedan, but I'm sure you'll have fun with the wagon :grin:

Wonder how bad the shipping costs would be though.
