Used to watch the forums off and on and now have some serious troubleshooting and I knew this would be the first place to start. Well name is Dan, live in the cold midwest, the car is a 98 Gt with a few visual mods and goodies, used to be owned by another member on here, Masubie. Anyways, glad to be here. Have owned a couple Subies including an 87 Justy and an 89 loyale.

Welcome, when I scrolled down and saw the pic I said "wow" out loud. However, I think the Ver5 rear wing would look better on my RS. Aside from that, really great car.

Great to see Masubie's ride back on here! I hope your enjoying it. His ride is definitely O.G. status around here, hope you stick around.

I'm kind of liking that ride a lot! The headlights and wing look clean on there.
Is it just the de under the good or is it swapped?

Thanks for the welcome guys, glad to be back in a car that likes the winter. No swap in there stock ej25, hopefully I can get it to run though, thread in the n/a powertrain on that. Prior to it dying it was an excellent all around car. I won't give up on it though, if it needs a heart transplant so be it.

That car is one of the original inspirations around here. I remember when he added the wing. Glad to see it's in loving hands.
