    Koalburner's 01 Legacy (JDM) B4 BE5 - subi in the caribbean

    Greetings, I am Newbie to the Subi - thought I would share my first Legacy

    Got an 01 JDM Legacy B4 BE5 a few weeks ago

    This is the car as shipped from Japan -






    Seems the owner did some suspension work - I see yellow front shocks - but I still have to get it up on a ramp and see what's really there

    She will turn a corner on a dime at speed - and stays flat and true - ride is firm but not harsh by any means - interior is dead quiet on the road -

    seats are real nice - not worn faded or torn by any means - interior is as fresh as the mileage

    Then again, its my first Subi - - so this may be the norm - but I am enjoying it

    Any mods would be from the previous owner -

    She has 63,000 km on the clock

    My headlights are the bomb - some kind of LED strip is in there ( yes I am a newbie)

    This is it home in my garage - the pics don't do justice to the color - it is just a deep rich paint and a to see




    My plan is for exhaust mods - she is too quiet - stereo upgrade - but my main emphasis is making the suspension purely to make it a driver's car

    may do a spoiler - but I just love the profile as is


    Whats the deal with the one rear speaker/woofer in the back shelf ??? first time I have seen that ??

    actually that was the name of the vessel - but we just pay for one way - the boat will visit more than one caribbean island on its trip as long as they ordered cars

    Yeah, you may be right - Turns out I have a McIntosh Sound System - did some reading on the audio forum - apparently an upgrade stock system - its not bad - but I think one of my front door speakers is blown so its sensitive to the type of music cd I play



    Some more pics of the interior to share

    The yellow shocks you mention are probably Bilsteins.
