I've been checking this site for a while now. Finally decided to post up my 3.6R Limited. I love this car.

 

For the wheels I went with the Mach M5 19x8.5 on 245/35. I think it's a +40 on stock suspension. They were pretty cheap and it's not like I'm racing people going back and forth to work. I was thinking about putting some springs on it but it's growing on me just like this and knowing Chicago weather it will be snowing before you know it haha.

 

 

I'm also a fan of the stock ride height. It happens to *just* clear the sidewalks I have to park at the way it is.

^ if you have some spare time, the side mirror caps pop out for easy SWP vinyling.

 

 

Nice!

Since the 2.5i is an all-season, all-road, smooth, efficient touring sedan, I avoided trying to make it look like or act like anything other than what it is, or otherwise compromise its abilities - but I did want to step it up and make it my own a bit. It came with hubcapped steelies and an unfinished tailpipe, so I was happy to add a few bits to make it more dressy. I'm happy.

 

This is my FIFTH Subaru since 1990! I only ever got rid of a Subaru because I wanted to, not because it broke. Previous Subarus: 1985 XT GL Coupe (sky blue metallic), 1990 Legacy L Wagon (Milk Carton White), 1996 Legacy L Wagon (Sapphire Blue Metallic), 2003 Legacy 2.5GT Wagon (Titanium Pearl Metallic)

 

Love this forum. Thanks for all the ideas and information.

Ok. If you hit up Blackstone Labs they will send you the sample bottle kit for free. Would love to see your numbers at 60K.

 

I think that will be interesting. I didn't get Added Security and it's too late now, so I guess I'm committed. Sigh.

Is there any way to fold down the rear bench seats without going into the trunk?? It seems like theres nothing inside the car, maybe I just cant find the popper thing though...???

 

I actually really like this in my sedan. If I push the trunk release lockout inside the glove box, and then lock the glove box with my key, then the valet can't get into the trunk or the glove box using the valet key without considerable headache, a lock picking set, or a chainsaw.

You planning on changing it anytime soon?

 

Not planning to until the 60k visit. I had a 2003 LGT 5MT wagon forever, and I really like this CVT more than I thought I would.

45,000 miles on my 2013 Legacy 2.5i CVT, and it's perfect; I drive it pretty hard. Car is bone stock, so no extra torque from any mods is hitting the tranny.
