    Cool, thanks. Yeah, I don't want to have to change it all out. Although if I have to do it up to her "specifications", then most of it will be custom anyway. It'll depend on a couple things:
    1) If I can even find a VDC with dark interior and,
    2) How bad I want a third blue Subie.

    Picked up the donor car today! Here it is:



    It's complete garbage, but free doors are awesome! I'm also going to fit on all the front exterior parts that I have now to see how my project will look. I get this car for a couple weeks before I am required to junk it, so I'll play around a bit.

    EDIT: son of a bitch! I should've checked the doors before I accepted this heap.... Can these be fixed cheaply?

    No. 2 and 3 don't look too bad, but with rust you really don't know the extent of the damage until you grind all the rust off down to bare metal. If its just on the surface you can just hit it with rust inhibiting primer and put a top coat on it.

    Re: Yamazaki's project "D model RS30/Blitzen6"

    is there any specific reason for wanting 04? i know some of the 02 came with black interior. as far as vdc and McIntosh goes i would opt out any aftermarket stereo will be more up to date and vdc is just another heavy and expensive thing that can fail on you. just my opinion.

    Re: Yamazaki's project "D model RS30/Blitzen6"

    I want '03. '04 didn't have a black interior option. '02 doesn't have digital HVAC controls. That' leaves '03. And no, the McIntosh system in my S401 (which is the same in the VDC outbacks) is far better than aftermarket systems I've experienced. Keep in mind that it was designed specifically for that car and it's just as high-end as the ones in Audis, BMWs, and Mercedes Benz's. I can't explain it because it's something that has to be experienced. As for the VDC, I've been sold on all the brochures I have. I just wish the US had the ADA system, which was the predecessor to the Eyesight system (also not available in the US).

    EDIT: Okay, so I was wrong. The '02 has auto HVAC also. That opens up my options. I'll include '02 in my search. I've actually already found a couple, but I don't live in the US, so I can't register/store them.

    yeah from what i know all H6 in US are auto climate control, also if you can score one with winter package it would be nice. when you are going to be purchasing a car go to the subaruoutback.org the 3.0 section in every "need advice" thread are a general list of thing to watch out for on these engines.

    Re: Yamazaki's project "D model RS30/Blitzen6"

    Well, I finally gave up and settled for a turbo hood. So I was able to put the hood, grille, lights, and bumper on the would've-been donor car to get an idea how my project will look. I didn't bolt/fasten anything down to take the picture, so the parts are all just kind of sitting there.

    Before and after pic of the donor car:


    It doesn't even look like the same car! I just wish I could've found a non-turbo hood....
    Time to go hunt down some doors now (that aren't rusted)! Since everything I've got so far is silver (except rear bumper), I might as well keep going with that.

    Re: Yamazaki's project "D model RS30/Blitzen6"

    Jackpot!!! I recovered the interior from an '02 Blitzen. The RSK interior I had before is for sale now. I also got some doors! I'll take pics of everything once I put it all together, but here's a preview:


    Now this car will be even more Blitzen! The driver's seat needs a little refurbishing, but knowing how hard this is to come by, I don't really care. With all of this taken care of, I am only looking for a muffler now.
    Question for Dodik (or anybody else who knows) - Are the regular Legacy mufflers compatible with the 3.0 H6 Outback sedan? Or does it have different places for the hangars, piping, etc?

    yeah h6 muffler is somewhat odd it has bypass pipe im not sure if its the same as legacy location wise but it will be mad easy job with a small welder to relocate hangers. im just waiting for my to rust thru so i can build the whole system from scratch. if you dont have a welder any exhaust shop will do it pretty cheap.

    Really? How much was it? Was the driver's seat in the same condition? If so, then I know at least one yard where RPMgarage gets their stuff. Web stores charge way too much, so I don't buy from them. My prices tend to undercut web store prices, so that should show that I don't get stuff from them.

    Okay, definitely different place then. Wait a minute... Seat covers? There are no seat covers on these. The seat itself is the blue/black leather.

    EDIT: okay, I just checked out rpmgarage.... They have some seriously false advertising going on there...

    The seats were complete, but because of the weight they mostly just sold the leather. But you also have to consider the fact that they arent a brand-specific shop. They got a lot of cars they strip so for them to be a 100% accurate in the description is nearly impossible. I myself is very pleased with the customer service they provide.
    Tough if i win the lottery i will finish my JDM dreams easily by importing a S401/Blitzen and get it registered with LHD.

    Have you got pictures of the RSK interior?

    Are you saying ALL the B4s have that interior?! The interior was an option for the RSK here, but very few actually have it. Most of the '02-'03 Blitzens have the dual-color interiors. As for the picture of the car, yeah, it looks just like a run-of-the-mill GT. Nothing special, that is, until you bring it to the US... And when you combine EVERYTHING (not just the front) I have for this project, well then it's even a little special here.
    Here are pictures of the doors (yeah, I know, one of them is white :smt012):



    I also realize some "modification" is going to have to happen due to the driver/passenger sides being on the opposite sides. No biggie.

    Yep, the majority of locally delivered B4's here had that blue/black interior;

    Hmm, the driver/passenger switches are different sizes here. Looks like I will still have to do some interior magic after all.

    Since it seems like it'll be irritating finding one that fits that I like, I'll just take the muffler that's on the S401 now and use that one and have a shop fab something. I'll reinstall the electronically controlled variable exhaust on the S401.

    Hey, that means I'm done. My "parts collection" phase is over! Now I just wait it out... unless anybody can think of something I missed.

    I'm thinking that you can just transfer over the switch panels from whatever US car you'll be putting those doorcards into onto the new doorcards...no need to mess with the wiring as you're keeping the switches. The only thing that would require some wiring and modification is the folding mirrors if you are putting those on as well.

    I keep finding stuff I just can't pass up....

    I switched out the CUSCO strut tower bar for this:



    And I switched out the B4 rear bumper for this:


    Can you see a resemblance?

    So I'm going to sell the CUSCO tower bar and throw away the B4 bumper.
