I haven't touched the wing yet. I got my rear windows tinted last Saturday and got the tow hitch mounted and wired on Sunday. I need to complete the 60k tune-up before I touch the wing. Still trying to figure out what color to paint it, but I'll be making a post in Member's Rides soon to get opinions.

Edit - this a NA motor?

[xXGTBspecXx]

Is that a black lip I see on those ?

[Mikey97D]

The black lip looks good! Good way to hide the weights.

Here's something they've been doing for dirt bikes for a while for rim protection:

Not sure if anyone makes them for cars.

[WinterKnoll]

The black lip came out nice, but it makes the tires look huge!

j/k :razz:

yeah once youve been in a car that does 2.3bar around town, than a car with .68bar is nothing

[xXGTBspecXx]

not really a story behind this car. i just like the legacy wagon. this is my second legacy and my 4th subaru and my 3rd wagon and my 5th car .

[xXGTBspecXx]

... it was to good to be true
i am accepting responsibility for this


the rear main seal has a leak i think. either i installed it wrong or it was bad. but on the good side the motor fired right up and ran strong.
im exhasuted from working in the heat so in a few days il be pulling the trans and replacing the seal and RTVing the fu*k out of the screw on covers.. im out of funds and low on patience.. will keep you guys updated though. thanks for the support so far.


HELP NEEDED. i need some help from someone with expeirence. if anyone could make a trip here to give a hand it would be greatly appreciated. pm me for info if your interested.

[Mikey97D]

Argh It happens. I had something similar happen to me replacing a motor in a '79 Thunderbird and I put the oil pan gasket in wrong. What a PIA and I needed the car at the time.

Glad to read it runs good!

[xXGTBspecXx]

today it started up and idled with open header at 1:30pm i drove her outfront and im waiting to get my exhaust done.. also i need to know how many quarts does an auto trans take?(im low) il post some pics up tomorrow morning...

[decke48]

i cant remember but i think its 15quarts dry. with no fluild in it. if your low you might only need a quart or two

[xXGTBspecXx]

thanks

[Airgne]

video?

[Reason]

Glad you got it going! When can we expect dyno numbers?. And is that a civic intake? lol

[Reason]

auto tranny fill up is 10qts

[xXGTBspecXx]

lol u spotted it reason u get 10pts yes its a trimmed to fit civic CF intake.. got it for free so im not complaining.. dyno number wont be available until i can afford the AVO turbo kit.

[Wiscon_Mark]

You did a full turbo swap and left the auto tranny in?

[Huffer]

It's just an NA rebuild.

[deadlydave]

Wow, very nice. The engine bay's looking good, even in those grainy photos.

The red really jumps out at you.

[xXGTBspecXx]

thanks guys il will also be taking pics when i get the car done.. yes its still missing peices. il use a friends camera so they look better then before.

[J.McDonald Knives]

So hows the update going?

[xXGTBspecXx]

very slow. saving money for more important things. like beer lol. nah im having the timing belt and tensioner replaced next week. then t=she should fire up. then i gotta deal with the damn torque converter deal. i might just 5spd swap it.
