  1. Bought a brand new EMPI 80-5531 front axle from Midwest-Autoparts on ebay for 64.24 shipped.

    Shipped day after purchase.. looks good. Getting installed Thursday with my new CM FX300 clutch and WRX/LGT SMFW.

    hmm, I had just planned on picking up a reman one at autozone, but maybe this is better since I won't have to bring anything back...

  2. One day when my paint goes to sh!t my Lgt is gonna turn Subie rally blue. I've never seen one, ever.

     

    There have been others on here, but here's one:

  3. silver second gen with yellow fogs and ugly silverstar headlights (both of which were on despite the bright, sunny morning that made the driver need sunglasses).

    about 11 this morning

    128 southbound, a little north of the liberty tree mall

     

    YOU DRIVE LIKE A DOUCHEBAG.

     

    there is absolutely no reason at all...

    1) to tailgate and then

    2) to try to pass me on the right

    3) on a crowded two-lane highway

    4) on thanksgiving day

    5) when the speed limit is 55, and the going rate of traffic is about 70.

    6) oh yeah, and learn to signal.

     

    you bring shame to the legacy name.

     

     

     

    I'm thankful that one of these days you're gonna get yours in a big way.

  4. I especially wonder how the vinyl would hold up on rims in winter -- they take such a beating. I do know that the design of the 5-spoke oem's does allow for significant snow/ice buildup on the inside of the wheels, which can be really annoying once you get going (because the weight being off makes things shake). I wonder if the vinyl would help reduce buildup...potentially could be useful to wrap just the inside and not worry about doing the spokes. ...maybe? :iam:
  5. Well, I like mine quite a lot. It's quiet when I want it to be quiet, and it's loud when I want it to be loud. It never pops, sounds smooth, and has a nice low timbre. In terms of appearance, it's actually a little showy for my tastes, but I let the cans stay dirty, and generally the tips too, as long as they're not unsightly. I would rather the tips be a little bit smaller and rolled, but hey, no way am I changing them now. The sound is exactly what I want.

     

    As far as the N1s...well, for starters, I think they look ridiculous. Those tips remind me of pierced ears with huge-gauge things in them. Or a saggy ass, whatever you prefer. Maybe you like them, but they're not to my taste. I just feel like the legacy is more of a darkhorse/sleeper vehicle than your average modified wrx and a way to have just as much go with a lot less show (i.e. unwanted attention). I've never heard them, so I can't state any sort of legitimate opinion on how good or bad they sound.

     

    just my .02

  6. I think I've seen one person on here with that exhaust. Fart cans + $1100 price tag = not a lot of people using it.

     

    I wonder if you mean me -- I'm actually not sure whether anyone on here has apexi cans besides me. Mine aren't this model, though, and were rebranded as wangan cans. And they're not fart cans, thank goodness - they're actually a little on the quiet side unless you've really got your foot in it, and then they're more like a deep growl than a raspy snarl. I put a couple clips in this thread a while back. :icon_bigg
