[Airgne]

i dont know how to get the video to work sorry. anyone?

[WinterKnoll]

Did you upload it somewhere?

[Airgne]

i have it on photobucket.

[WinterKnoll]

I'm pretty sure they'll give you the code for a forum link. Or you could just paste the link here.

[SilentRacer]

added video to your post

[peugoby]

Got to see Brandons car in the flesh yesterday. Very sick BE Bro!

The exhaust is amazing. Really loud but sounds so good. Nice to meet you again bro, thanks for the wheel.

[deadlydave]

Nice. That's a serious exhaust :-D

[rougeben83]

wanna trade exhausts? I can use that 3 incher more than you can :lol: :lol:

(seriously though, I'm looking to getting a 3" exhaust...my car's too quiet now :grin: )

[99gtlimited]

nice ride! i have to say that style culdesack looks all to familiar. nice to see another Washingtonian putting his ride on display. Keep up the good work!

[Airgne]

thanks gys. no problem about the wheel. the exhaust is easy as hell to make. start at about 8in after your first cat and sut it all off. get some 3in pipe bend as requierd and get a Apexi N1 muffler. boom there you go nice sounding exhaust tha will help your car out alot. once i get my new rims i will put more pics up. thanks once again guys.

[Airgne]

going get an extention made for the Cobb CAI. going to go from the pipe that enters the fender to down next to the right side fog light. i will have to take out that plastic peice that goes next to the fog(it covers a tow hook). this should push more air into the intake. will post pics after get some money and time to do this.

[rougeben83]

going get an extention made for the Cobb CAI. going to go from the pipe that enters the fender to down next to the right side fog light. i will have to take out that plastic peice that goes next to the fog(it covers a tow hook). this should push more air into the intake. will post pics after get some money and time to do this.

Couldn't you rig the pipe to route to the factory scoop? I think that's as good an option as the foglight without the increased dirt and misc. road debri you're liable to suck up from down there...

[Airgne]

i was going to be installing 2 mess type of screens. 1 at the opening and 2nd before the filter. only to stop normal stuff. also with all the bends in the pipe i dont think it would get far. this is just a thought for now. if i do it, it would only be about 30 bucks. if it does nothing than its a test that failed.

[99gtlimited]

hey where'd you get your tints done? and how dark are they?

[Airgne]

the only pic from the NW Casscade run that i can find with my legacy in it. there were about 55 cars and one Legacy. me. it was a blast hope to see more legacies out next time. im 2ns to the left end if you cant tell.

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2008/06/cascaderun3-1.jpg

[WinterKnoll]

LOL angry biker. Bikers are such douches sometimes, around where I live they like to ride in pairs side by side, taking up the entire road. Then they get all pissed off when I have to gun it around them because I'm afraid some car is going to be coming around the next corner with me 100% in their lane of traffic.

[BE-Fresh]

Fuck the bikers

[2.5GT]

You guys really should of honk the horns while passing him :lol:

[Airgne]

You guys really should of honk the horns while passing him :lol:

all of us did, but when i did he almost fell off his bike. something about 125db scares ppl.

[henryq89]

i spy a silver 2008 STi =] and a Si =/ ..lol..one question where exactly can u go 80 mph on a road ..?? i wanna go there because the fastest u can go in NY (speed limit wise) is 65...(no one goes that speed thou lol)

[BE-Fresh]

Fuck speed limits, I make my own

[2.5GT]

Fuck speed limits, I make my own

That's right! Fuck em all! :lol:

[henryq89]

hahaha..preach to BE-Fresh :grin:

[Airgne]

in the works right now. i got my JDM HID's finally via 96wagonzilla(thanks man). i orderd headlight restore to clean them up to like new. got smoked headlight armor on its way. i was working on the lights and found out that my eye lids are made by zero sports. last week i started the interior by black plastic dipping all the fake wood. plastic dip is the best thing to use on your interior. because if you dont like it, it peels right off. as soon as i get everything done i will post pics. also i just won an outback front bumper for the car.

[Airgne]

got headlight on with headlight armor 50% smoke(recommened), got outback front installed. JDM rear with spats in. PIAA 520 crystal ions will be in soon. will take pics for update when get camera again.

[peugoby]

JDM rear with spats in.

You get it installed & painted already? Send me a cell phone pic if its on.

[Airgne]

got it installed, but i left for japan the next day. it looks awsome, but now i have to do some exhaust work.

[legacyB4RSK]

Looking forward to seeing the pics, I haven't installed mine yet, want a sneek peek on how it will look like.

[Airgne]

it looks awsome, but i think its going to start bugging me about the exhaust and the side. i just got my jdm rear tails and b4 emblem all for 156bucks.

[legacyB4RSK]

Told my dealer about it and they had mentioned perhaps even reworking the rear fenders. I'll let you know how it turns out. BTW, how bad is the exhaust, is it hanging too low? Good price on those parts. I just went ahead and got the entire JDM trunk lid including the wing. If everything works out as planned , my car will look exactly lika a B4 rsk, except with a sunroof.

[impreza_GC8]

Hey there, nice car. Don't see to many in that body style modified.
Where'd you get your N1 muffer? The N1 on my RS AutoX car took a crap on me (finally) and I'd like to get a new muffler to weld onto the piping.

[Airgne]

legacy,

as for the trunk and spoiler its no diffrent at all. as for teh exhaust it needs to be moved up about 2 in. i wouldnt rework the rear fenders. i would do it to the bumper because its would be alot easier(=less money).

impreza,

i got my n1 off ebay.

[legacyB4RSK]

I know 'bout the trunk lid, I just wanted the actual JDM trunk for the spoiler and badges (excessive , maybe, but I am slowly coverting to JDM parts) little project of mine. As for the bumper , you're right, my thought was to modify the bumper as well. Judging from your first pics, your custom exhaust appears to hang lower that stock, so I guess with the jdm bumper it would look very low. Send pics when you can.

[Airgne]

i updated the mod list will tke pice when i get back and get parts installed.

[peugoby]

Damn, I wanna see that JDM rear bumper badly.

Hope the fam & Japan are treating you well buddy.

[Airgne]

it been awsome. i almost forgot how much i love japan. last saturday night i went to the mountians with my freind. there were about 30 cars there. we drifted for about 3hrs. i got vid of me hanging out my freind Brians sunroof while drifting. Got vid of my freind Josh with the car i sold him. he has done things i only wished i couls have done to that Laurel. i will be doing a Members Rides on the Nissan , just have to compile the list of mods.

[Airgne]

so i finally took pics of the car after some changes to the ones on the first page. the car does not look like it did before. also updated mod list

[legacyB4RSK]

Absolutely Awesome, love the bumper, and it looks exactly like I anticipated, not that bad. I'm getting mine installed in a day or 2. I have those same door sills and that STI key as well. Thanks for the pics. I'll have to post pics of mine next, maybe the Winstone Pearl color won't show the bumper/fender misalignment as much.

Good Work

[rougeben83]

Looks good. I thought the front bumper was a Baja one at first...

Do they sell some kind of overfenders for the BE's? I'm sure you can find them when you go back to Japan one of these days :smile:

[Legacy89]

so i finally took pics of the car after some changes to the ones on the first page. the car does not look like it did before. also updated mod list

https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2008/10/DSC00149-1.jpg
Looks great, tough the bumper dosent fit 100% i think.

Talked to my friend with the 89 Laurel the other day. He is thinking about selling it. And taking over his fathers Saab 9000 CSE Turbo.

That car has had 17 previous owners (the laurel i mean) so it has almost been sold every year since 1989:P

[Reason]

Very nice additions, the grill and wheels should set it off.

[Ryan]

Airgne - If you're interested I have the darker JDM center tail to match your outer JDM clear lenses. It's just a decoration in my house right now. PM me if you're interested in buying it.

Ryan

[peugoby]

Looks really good Brando. You should get the exhaust re-hung so it doesn't slope down as much and has more of a tilt upwards. The wheels & stance are really going to set it off. Nice work buddy

[Airgne]

thanks guys. toby i have sti genome exhaust made for that bumper coming. ryan i have the center peaice on its way as well, but thank you.

[Airgne]

so my freind got a 00 2.5RS about a week ago. i wnet outside to take a look and joking with him asked when we were going to switch rims. for some reason he said when do you want to do it. so i now have 2 pair of enkei rims.

[Ryan]

Nice fit! What size tire and rim are they? Do they pull steering a lot?

[Airgne]

there 18x7.5 +45ET
225/40/18 toyo's(i hate toyo's)

[Ryan]

Do they pull the steering wheel alot when you're driving?

[Huffer]

Dude did you move? I thought you had that nice house in the burbs?

I love the paint BTW, the front and rear matches real well. Not feeling the 18s though - the car looks higher to me.

[Airgne]

they dont pull. no i didint move. i took them while on base. the car is about an inch higher than with the stock wheels. im just going to use these as a winter wheels(they were free). i shoule be droping it soon. just need new tophats.

[Huffer]

You should sell them and buy some cheap wheels for your winter rollers. Don't waste the 18s on a winter. At least make some profit!

[rougeben83]

Def sell those if youre just going to use them for winters. I bet you can get at least $700-800 out of the deal.

But work something out with your friend since it may piss him off that he gave you something for free and you turn around and sell it to a stranger :lol:

[Airgne]

if i took closer pics you would understand why i dont care about them. they have bad curb rash on all 4.

[1996Battlewagon]

When are you putting the RPF1's on?

[Airgne]

when i get 600 bucks for the tires.

[subaru_terrence]

I got the same set of 18" enkei rims before toOO! but they rubbed a little bit since my car was lowered.

Where did you get the legacy foot steps? I am interested for a set too!

[Airgne]

i got those while i was in japan.

i was looking at pics from the start and wow what a diff car it is now. ill take a look around for you terrence

[BE-Fresh]

Lookin real nice brah. The front bumper and wheels really set it off. Did you get the rain guards here or over in Japan? I was thinking about getting a set soon.

[nosbocaj]

Looks great Airgne!

[Reason]

This thing is coming along nice, keep up the good work!

[Airgne]

thank you very much guys. its coming together slowly. BE-Fresh i got those at NAPA. i want the JDM ones since those are one peice.

[BE-Fresh]

Oh. They looked one piece to me, haha

edit: I see, nvm

[Airgne]

so i out the PIAA 520 ATP in and wired it all up. i out them behind the grill, but the damn hood hits them and pushes them down, so they are useless. i was pissed so i didnt even look at them all the way. if i can figure it out tomorrow i will take them out and maybe put them on my bumper. what do you guys think of that?

[rougeben83]

Trim the grill? it's a good 1" thick, you can cut recesses into them to make the lights fit if they're too long on depth.

[Airgne]

well i got them to work. the ebay special jdm grill didnt work to well.

[Airgne]

got the new wheels and tires on the car. Enkei RPF1's with 235/45/17 Dunlop Direzza DZ101's. also updated mod list. got JDM 4pots

[peugoby]

Those Enkei's look really good on there! I like them a lot more than those 18's.

+45 right? Didn't you have Direzza's on your snowflakes too? It's coming together really nicely. Just need that Genome exhaust & 4pots to set it off.

[Reason]

I like that a lot, nice job.

[Airgne]

thanks guys.

toby: yeah there +45et. yes i had the direzza's on the snowflakes.

shane: thans im trying. get those sticker out yeat? if youll look at the left rear(small) window there is not more SLI sticker. it looks naked now.

[Legacy89]

Where did you get those wind-deflectors/bugshield?

[Reason]

They are being cut, they should be out soon.

[Scott01GT]

I dont know about everyone else but are your guys' BE's as gutless as mine? I cant pull away from automatic honda civic's, a saturn sc1 will smoke me off the line and stay ahead of me. Are they all like this or is something on the go with mine.

Just say i get on gas in first second and thrid when i get to around 4500-5500 in third i'll let off and look at my speedo and i wont be doing 100km/h maybe 90.

[99SUS SFD]

These things aren't exactly race cars. Not a heck of a lot of power out of the 2.5 N/A.

[Legacy89]

mine does 0-80 in second. thats what i remember.

Mine isn't :twisted:

Ok ok, that was a cheap shot.

It's kind of like that, you can try some headers and a couple of other bolt-ons, it should liven up the car a bit, but you're still not going to be beating anything with a respectable amount of power in a straight line, at least.

What youre describing in the last part isn't a consequence of power, more so of gearing, and that's pretty normal too because any taller gearing and it would give slower acceleration.

Airgne; pics of the front? I like lights :grin:

[Scott01GT]

I was thinking about an intake and exhaust but i dont want to have a loud muffler, i like it the way it is, i would have it more quiet if i could, but my car burns a retarted amount of gas as it is, and that would only make it burn more. But my check engine light is on and im thinking that has to do with it burning so much gas, im saving money now to put it into a shop and see whats on the go with it..

[Airgne]

with all the stuff on mine i get about 29mpg on the freeway and 23mpg in town. for an AWD n/a car i think i do pretty good. i like to do turns. straight lines are boring and dont teach you have to drive good.

[Scott01GT]

airgne, what do you have done to your car suspension wise?

[Airgne]

nothing so far for sus yeat. i have kyb gr2's, h&r springs, kyb topmounts, and kyb strut boots waiting to go on. i just need the time to get them on.

[99gtlimited]

looks sharp man, i like the outback bumper on there painted to match.

what'd you do with your stock snowflakes?

[henryq89]

looks sweet man :grin:

[Airgne]

thanks. some guy gave me his 18 enkei's for my snowflakes. oh that outback bumper was a fluke. it was the same color as the car when i got it. score for me.

[99gtlimited]

haha, that's awesome it matched that well, i can't tell at all. well, too bad about the wheels, for me....


keep up the good work

[Airgne]

took some night shots of the lights. they are brighter in person. i also lowerd the car, just have to get the pics up. been lazy.

[scubydu]

how many miles when it blew?

[Airgne]

the engine had about 117,000miles on it. i beat the shit out of my cars.

[DOOK]

perfect time to upgrade suspension.... :D

haha. look at about 6k drop for this upgrade.

[99gtlimited]

sorry to hear about the motor, i'm sure you'll get it figured out.

[Airgne]

well im not going to do a swap per say. im going to try the H6 engine.

[peugoby]

I got my eyes peeled for any decent 1st gen or Mitsu Galant VR-4 for ya man!

[99gtlimited]

there's a turbo legacy motor on CL you should check out, it's only like 400 asking w/ecu (maybe wiring harness?), and a good rebuild project, you could drop that into your BE and make it a beast, maybe a frankenmotor with your heads?


just a few ideas, good luck with whatever you choose

[Airgne]

scooy is in the shope getting the headgaskets done. subaru of america is going to pay 30% of the cost to get it fixed. i should be back in a scooy soon. thank god. its been horrible without my car for over a month.

so as of today the engine in back in the car. i found my number cly4 missfire problem. the exhaust vavles on #4 were burnt. when the took a look at the car the left side headgasket was in 5 or 6 peices. they milled both head and replaced the vavles on the left side. also have put on a new oil pan and a clutch bearing. they would have doen it today but the alarm was givin them problems. should be back on the streets tomarrow. it was suppose to be done today but the head didnt get back from the head shop tell late in the afternoon. i will be getting friday night hopefully. also i have gotten a JDM RFRB grill. cant wait to get the car back. i will get it back just in time to go to the legacy meet.

[Airgne]

well i got the car back. its not 100% yeat. i think the center digg or front diff is starting to go out. also the tranny need the snout kit.

There is hope for our JDM rear bumpers. I had the dealer modify the bumper to match the fender curve, looks perfect.

It probably wouldn't be that hard to do yourself. Just heat up the bumper with a heat gun and form it to the shape you. Let it cool in that shape and you have your JDM bumper on a US car that looks good.

[legacyB4RSK]

Of course........... it's that easy, it only took the body shop a whole day!! Amateurs!!!!!!!!!!! LOL. Unfortunately, I am not very handy with things like that, rather have it done by people that do this for a living.

It's easy on paper but you need to be careful molding painted pieces as you may very well damage the paint while heating up that area.

[legacyB4RSK]

The bumper was completely repainted. It had to be with the work involved, they used a plastic repair kit that is similar to the bumper material then had to form that area then sand it. I saw them do some of it , it was impressive work.

This method is better left to a shop or someone very familiar with autobody. Usually when you do plastic weld something back together, it has to get some bodywork and paint.




Airgne= How's the car running now?

[99gtlimited]

How's the car doin????? any updates for us?

[Airgne]

well the car runs fine. drives on the other had horribly. the clutch release bearing wore a groove in my pressure plate teeth and the front seal in my tranny leaks about 2 quarts a week. i bought a new(new to me but used) tranny, rear diff and 4 axels out of an 05 outback. orderd a clutch kit from spec. didnt cost a grand this time for the clutch kit since i had the flywheel alreay. i got a new pressure plate(not aluminum this time), clutch disc, and friction plate(its for the flywheel). right now im in japan again, so when i get back i will be doing the work. all i need to get now is some new gator pins for the axels. oh also i orderd some sun pro poly bushings for the rear diff area.

i do have alittle project goin on right now. im going to be buying a ver4 sti short block(if he still has it when i get back). getting PhaseII heads, intake, ecu, and harness. all that and a raptor supercharger will be going into my car here hopefully in the next year. until then im probly going to buy that supercharger kit off this guy on RS25.com. i looked at the mods he did to the hood. i can make a better looking way of doing it.

oh yeah i just got my JDM grill done and painted java black to match my eyelids. will but picks of it up when i get time. i will not be back from japan for acouple weeks.

[Reason]

i will not be back from japan for acouple weeks.

Must be nice.... How about you bring me back a box of JDM air so I can cram it into make intake for some good fastness! :twisted:

got the new tranny and shit yesterday. also took my 92 ss to get the gas tank changed out. when we got the tranny and stufff the guy asked if i was there for a the WRX, STI, or Legacy stuff. i should have said STI and he probly would have given me the STI sway kit, but with my luck(aka Karma) i would get screwed some other way soon after that.

How good is the light output with the lights in the horn-position?

This is my setup:
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=11454&start=30 (https://sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=11454&start=30)

HID High beams, halogen low beams with 55W Osram Nightbreaker. Bosch Rallye 225 H3 55w. And the output is great.
Im getting HID in the extra lights as well as a Hella ramp with 4 small lights.

But i don't do that much city driving.

[Airgne]

the light output is great. with just my JDM headlights on i can see great. just the center light holy shit you can see like its day.

[Legacy89]

JDM HID? high/low? how are they to adjust from RHD to LHD? Im thinking of getting a set of JDM facelifts with HID.

[Airgne]

the JDM headlamp assy is HID=low beam H1=high beam. i have 6600k HID bulbs and H1 plasma ion yellow high beams. on the outsied of the lights have 50%smoke vinyl tint. ppl flash me ,but then i flash them back with the middle 2 lights and they dont really do muxh after that(other than swerve).

[scubydu]

Looking good man. Liking the grill, although might look better flat black or body color?? ( guess this means I get your stocker eh? :lol: )

How are you liking those tires? I was thinking about ordering them in 225/45's

[Airgne]

as i have told you and i will forever tell i dunlop makes a better(good priced tire) tire. I LOVE THEM!!! they are the best dry and wet tire i have ever had.

starting today on removing all running gear. swaping it out for a 05 outback drivetrain(tranny, axels, rear diff). also putting in a new clutch kit. pic later today.

so i found out why my front seal went bad. below you will see my pilot bearing that fell out(when they did the head gaskets, got the mechanic fired :grin: ) you can tell the damge that the bearing did on the inside of the friction disc. also you can see the seal in 3 peices(suppose to be one peice). also we took apart both 01 and 05 transmissions(easy as hell to do). at the bottom you will se my new clutch installed. went from 4 puck to 6 puck clutch. also went to a better pressure plate. i took the seal and back half of the 05 case and will be using it on in my 01 case. the 05 tranny is the one were teh cv halfshafts go into the front diff. the 01 has the splines stick outside the case.

[Reason]

So did you end up sticking with the stock flywheel? And you are running the 4 puck now? I'm sure I'll end up talking to you on the box tonight anyway let me know fool!

[Airgne]

the clutch kit i got from spec(since i had a spec aluminum flywheel) came with a new friction disc for the flywheel. so all i did was replace the friction disc on the flywheel, install a 6 puck clutch, new pressure plate, and sun pro rear diff poly bushings.

[Airgne]

so i got the tranny backin one peice. i will be putting everything back in in the morning.

[aznguy0087]

OMG :shock: , that seems scary for me to tare my tranny apart! i can do the engine no problem, is the out tranny stronger? g/l wit the car love it!!!

[Airgne]

i disnt rebuld any of the gears or anything. i took the speed sensor and front diff from the 01 and put them in the 05. it was easy, and for the tq specs wow its sad. for the front case 18ft lbs, mid case 18 ft lbs, and rear case 30 ft lbs. an engine is harder than a transmission. just take pics as you take the parts out so you have a ref point for when you are putting it back together.

[rougeben83]

yeah, that's why many people think part of the 5 speed's inherent weakness is the case flexing under sudden torque/load.

[Airgne]

i didnt tq them to that spec so well see how long it lasts. i went to 30 lbs all around.

[Airgne]

everything is in and she runs like a champ. finally its finished. next it the 4pot upgrade.

give me 2800 bucks and i will do it.

[Airgne]

now after a week with is tranny, I LOVE IT!!!! with the shorter gears from the outback the car feels like it got 30%more hp. it didnt its just the ratios of the gears. i like it. next i have to get a new gas tank. i put a dent in mine last year(NW Legacy meet 11pm and drunk, i drove for 30 feet) anyways that will be the next thing to happen to the BE. oh wait i forgot i have to get the brakes done. got FHI 4pots need the money for the FHI 2pots and adapter.

[Airgne]

so i got some work done on the BE. see if you can tell what they are, or you can be lazy and scrool to the end.

the 235's are awsome!!! grip like no other. they did rub alittle tell i rolled the lip on the front fenders, and that was only when taking corners 40-50mph more than posted. the rpf1's have been the best 700bucks i have spent in a long time. worth ever penny. just have to get one more for a full size spare.

[peugoby]

Spats & mirrors look awesome! Did you get those RPF1's new? $700 is a really good deal. Where did you buy if you bought them new?

[Airgne]

got them used with 1 autocross. from tirerck they are 232 each i think.

[Legacy89]

Is your grille the Racing Raven one? Did you just fit it with screws from the back?
I got one for 10 bucks on eBay.

my geill is a real JDM RFRP grill. paid good money for it. all you ahve to do it drill the holes in the ebay one you got.

so the other day i sold my 92 ss. i decided to finsh getting the brakes(was goin to put them on the 92). soon to go on the car will be FHI 4 pot(fronts), FHI 2 pot(rear) calipers, EBC Red stuff brake pads, EBC sloted and blind drilled rotors(11.6in front, 11.4in rear), 06 WRX rear backing plates(no adapter needed), and a new left rear hub(damn bearing has been bad since i bought the car).

started to paint all the calipers and backing plates this weekend(dont use your oven to bake it on, wife will get pissed :evil: ). they are looking good. also if anyone will buy my suspension i have for sale i will be getting coilovers. then we will see how she goes. if no one buys my suspension i will probly not get the coilover(if i have the money i will), but ill then get rallitek sway bars.

also i should be getting my 18 enkie evo5's back. been at the powder coater for way to long, those will probly be for sale.

[Airgne]

installed the group a alt and crank pullies, and holy shit awsome. car revs so smooth and fast. cant wait to see what it drives like(have to get brake first).

[Airgne]

started pulling all the brakes off and installing the new wheel bearing. got the fron wheel bearings done. took me 2 hrs and 2 broke tools to get the left rear hub off. so after that ordeal i took the right side apart to let it soak in pb blaster. while i did this i noticed that my parking brake shoes on the right side are screwed. so now i have to find some damn parking brake shoes and get them by friday. screw it getting ne hardware while im at it.

oh yeah have someone do the bearings for you this shit blows, but i dont have the money and ive never doen it. want to do it al least once so i dont sound like a jackass when i tell someone how to do this in the future.

[Airgne]

so after a week of my being a dumbass i got the brakes done on the car. i had the rear calipers on the wrong side. oh well shit happens and we learn. the 4/2pot upgrade is the best upgrade i have done so far. the car stops on a dime. it stops so evenly, no more nose dive. since i was given the wrong brake shoes or the parking brake the 5 different times i orderd them, i have no parking brake right now. i think this time they have the right ones, so i shoud have a parking brake again soon. i will go take some pics of what the brakes look like on the car.

Looks better here than what you sent me on the phone. Makes the car look more aggressive, I just don't know if I would do it to my car still. :-?

[scubydu]

Looks good. Right rear looks a little out of kilter maybe? I had to reposition mine after putting them on the first time. definitely like em though. :smt023

[ndto]

Love those muds flaps they look so aggressivly functional

Can I ask you what offset your wheels are?

-45et.

the right rear looks alittle off because of the rear bumper. its on right.

[Legacy89]

I want one of those mud-pits:P

[swiftman007]

yup ! nice update . You did some great work to your car. Your engine bay is so clean compare to mine ! :(

[Airgne]

should have seen it after the mud pit. wow it was bad.

[subaru_terrence]

hey, are you sure your CAI is installed correctly? It seems like the air filter is in opposite direction

[1-3-2-4]

when I drilled my mud flaps I had to kinda guess.. I did a rough guesstimate and drilled the hole.. my biggest fear was having one mudflap higher then the other but it worked out in the end.

[Airgne]

im not sure about the filter. it works. i dont think it will change anything if you put it the other way.


as for the flaps i messured it out. 2 1/2 in in and 1 in down from the top corner. drilled a hole in all 4 than went and used the self-tapping screws 1/4in about the hole in the fender and bumper.

[Reason]

im not sure about the filter. it works. i dont think it will change anything if you put it the other way.


Well if I remember correctly it's a cone style filter in there. And IF it is on backwards the flow of air is screwed up. It's not designed to flow backwards, so there could be a crazy amount of turbulence in there.

hmm. ill turn it around and see if anything is different, but have a bad cv halfshaft seal, and cv halfshaft.

[Airgne]

well today i say a good deal over on legacycentral. delta cams was selling 2000grind cams for 82.50 each. i went and bought them. so soon i will have them in and see how it goes. also i have a dyno day coming up :grin:

[Reason]

You know delta cams is on here right?

[Airgne]

You know delta cams is on here right?

yes, but he didnt post it on here that i had seen.

[DLC]

Guess you don't want the Cobb cams then, eh?

[Airgne]

Guess you don't want the Cobb cams then, eh?


yeah sorry DLC, but it was too good of a deal to pass up.

[hallowpoint]

ah man, i wish you were going with boost. but built na is just as good

[rougeben83]

Are you going with the 1000 or 2000 grind?

[Airgne]

im goin boosted next year. this engien will go into the 91 wagon after it comes out of my car.

[1996Battlewagon]

Are you getting engine management with the stage 2 cams?

[Airgne]

Are you getting engine management with the stage 2 cams?

no. stage II cams do not need a EM. stage III would. when the engine goes into the wagon migth use a perfect power 6.

[plaz]

nice car!! :smt023

Cool. I've been curious about that for a while...

[Airgne]

went on a subaru drive on sunday. was good, but ended bad with a car goin off the mt road. anyways here is a pic that someone else took that i thought was awsome. showing the SL-i side of the house.

[ndto]

Nice pic, whats the story on the car that went off the road hope the drivers fine

[swiftman007]

[Airgne]

[99gtlimited]

lucky you... nice parts

Once I get my brake issue resolved we should go for a drive! I'll have my 17's on for another couple of weeks and they grip like hell...

[Legacy89]

Im looking at a smililar engine upgrade.
11.3-1 Cr Forged Pisons
261/249 Deg. Inverted Radius Billed Camshafts
OBX Equal Length Headers
Random Tech Dual Highflow Cat
2.5" catback

[Airgne]

so talked to the shop im goin to dyno my car at and they told me the 2000 grind cams are good, but not good with out bottom end work(bigger piston and cr). they told me to get 2000 intake and 1000 exhaust. called ken at delta cams and ask abotu getting the exhaust ground to 1000. he told me no problem he had a 2000/1000grind set that he would send me once he got my 2000grinds back. the cams are a hold for a moment.

finished the exhaust the other day. got rid of the last cat. no its borla header, 2.5in pipe, to 3in pipe with apexi n1. the car is way to lous not with no cats. ppl have told me that is sound like a rally car. another person told me it sound like a drift car. the exhaust is a for a track car not my family car. going to the sti genome and a resonator when cash flow gets here, probly around engine swap time.

also i started to buy the CF hood for my car. :grin:

[hallowpoint]

^^thanks for the cam info. your car is making me want to get a BE for my next car over a wrx.

[Airgne]

hopefully thats true. stay in the family. :grin:

[Airgne]

picked up some winter wheels today. there are pretty nice. get pics tomorrow. also i am truck bedlinning the trunk of the car tonight. im goin to see if it works to dampen the sound and also seal the hairline crack that i cant find. water keeps getting in somewere.

[subaru13]

Hey dude ran with you on highway 20 the other day on my way to work. Those mud flaps are ridiculous though when I was behind you it look like you had some crazy aero kit on your car or something and that exhaust is burly..

i thought that was you the way you were riding my ass. thanks for the comp.

[aekOne]

nice mod list man! i have NEVER seen that front bar like that before??? we don't get them in oz!!

[Airgne]

im sorry. do you mean the bumper?

[aekOne]

yeah mate sorry the front bumper :smile:

in oz the gen 3 bars that had fog lights were the first revision rx bar, the facelifted rx bar and the pre and post facelift B4 bars. The outbacks here have a totally different bar with the big round fog lights. None of which look anything like yours obviously...

There’s very little after market body parts available in Australia so it would be a real point of difference if someone out here could get their hands one of them.

[Airgne]

cams are installed. delta cams 2000/1000 grind cams.

the car is very nice. there is no lag when you change gears. very peepy.

while we were in there we took out the ac, and usless brackets.

next i will be taking out my fuel rails and cleaning the rails and injectors.

[rougeben83]

You can do the parallel fuel line mod since theyre out as well.
