sure ... not a prob ... will even post up pics from the cruises the clubs i belong to ... there's a few, but im mainly with www.diyms.org.nz (http://www.diyms.org.nz) and www.clubsub.org.nz (http://www.clubsub.org.nz) ... will be posting more JDM pics to drool at and clues to help tranform your rides into "JDM specs" ... oh yeah ... i have been reading sum of the posts on the forums, and if anyone needs JDM stuff for their Legacies/WRX (light clusters, bumpers, EJ20R Twin Turbo or EJ20 STi blocks :-D, etc, ) ... just might be able to source them from the local wreckers over here in my spare time if you guys would be keen :P

i had a Gen1 Legacy GT wagon, in black thnx i might add :-D ... and i did sure wish that my GTB (what i would call the Gen 2.5 LoL) would be black as well instead of what i would call "Fridge on Wheels" white hahahaha

and Sha, thnx ... but i'd really say black and gold's best, esp if you tint out all the windows to match the blackness of the pillars so the whole car (well for the wagons) is one solid piece of "granite" rock heheheh

here's my old Gen1 Legacy

Hey subbiedoo, sorry I have not welcomed you in yet, good to see you made it over from CS :-D You are the only other northern member here. The southern guys came over in droves.
I want to get some meets up and running in auck but still short on keen leggy owners, The dyno day on sat was a laugh you should have been there jason got beaten by Lorna !!! and he threw all his toys out of the high chair :-D
I have been postin pics of the cs cruses and the boys and girls on this forum are a bit jelous of the amount of cars we have in one city.
Any way good to see you here dude

hahaha ... read em and weep boys hahaha ... and guess wot ... my family will prolly be moving in about 2-3yrs to Melbourne and told em "No way, I'm staying" muwahahahhaha :-D

heard about the Dyno and Jase, and told him "Thats what you get for getting a off-the-shelf Jap ECU" ... he should have known that the Jap ECUs are tuned for 2000 octaine Jap fuel :shock: :lol:

I like your old Gen one, There was an 89 gen 1 sedan on the dyno on sat and it blew 280kw atw the sound was wicked.
There was a good turn out of legacies 8 I think leo had another run with his new ECU as well but lost power. The jap ECUs are tuned for 101 octane I think. I have just got a Prova ecu from there and it is tuned for 101 leo lost boost and so did Jase. I have only run mine once and it lets me sit at 1.4bar, I had to send it back to get some more timing added and have just got it back again but have an airflow meter problem now so didnot run in the weekend.
