Borla header? You have my attention. I am running a 20gxt already with the perrin fuel rail setup so I'm find there.

ben wait till you see jmo's legacy. built the whole thing himself...
it scoots
I can't wait to see it. I have an interview with a company coming up in the next couple weeks and if that goes well and I land the job there are quite a few mods heading my LGT's way. Such as saving for an STi trans swap and a reseal on my race block with hopefully matching STi heads just for starters.

I'll be up there watching the event. I was gonna bring my GoPro if you wanna mount it for a run or two. Good to know someone else with a LGT will be there. I'll have my AP w/ me if that's the cable you'll need?

Went early with wrxatlanta and there was a pretty good turnout. They went on a mountain run afterwards. Sorry I missed you guys. Anyhow, what's new with everyone's rides?

Got a link? I'd be interested! What airport?

http://wannagofast.com/clayton.php $15 for a spectator. Driver spots are all gone unfortunately. I'd love to get some rolling shots of some rubies headed up there though.
I'll be at C&O this weekend also. This week is my bday week so I get leverage to go to every car related thing in the next two weeks. My self proclaimed authority over my wife. We'll see how it goes.

Anyone on here drive a bronze LGT on 400 south and 385 west earlier? Looked stock but did a couple solid pulls.
-
Anti-lift kits are magic. Ps it's been awfully quiet around here. Who's down to ACTUALLY meet sometime? The local forum is putting together a Tail of the Dragon run in the fall, any takers?
-
Yeah, that's how I've done the last few cars of mine.

Everyone (and particularly Ben)-
I've been looking for a 2005-2007 Legacy Ltd (non turbo). I've passed up a few that came from rust-belt states (lands of snow and road salt). However, ones that spent the majority of their miles in the south are extremely rare, so I may need to be a little less picky.
What kinds of diagnostics can a Subaru dealer (or a shop who specializes in Subarus) do to minimize the chance of getting a car with severe problems (especially engine, but anything else that could be expensive)? Is there anything a traveling tech could do if the car can't be taken to a shop (just test driven and whatever he can do on the lot/driveway)?
Any recommendations on local shops and/or traveling techs in the Atlanta area?
And if anyone runs across a 2005-2007 Legacy with auto-AC controls, no major damage in its history, non black interior, and not used by a smoker, please let me know!
Subaru of Kennesaw does a pre-purchase inspection that I'd absolutely recommend. As far a subaru-specific shops, most the ones I know of are speed shops so why not try the dealer? Unless you're trying to keep it super cheap. What you're looking for is super specific so I wish you luck! IMO you should go turbo.
PS: Where was everyone today at the Little River Cruise today?! Only two LGT's showed up!

Nice wheels man!

We just finished rebuilding a trans in a 5th gen a week ago. Minimal mods, idk if he's on the forums or not.
Anyhow, who's down for the mountain run this sunday?
-
Anyone around??? Come one out to the run next sunday!
-
Well then come on out to the event!
-
AUG 10: Mountain/Subie cruise! I'd love to see anyone and everyone come out for this. There will be quite a few subarus coming out from wrxatl

I am planning on taking the family to this ... that is if everything is ok with the car. So we shall see.
Heck yeah man! I hope to see more leggies out for this!
-
I'm considering this, but not really sure what all is involved.
Fairly simple. Meet up in the AM, drive up there, enjoy the roads/cars/ scenery, hang around the park, go home!
-
Yeah I saw that! What spurred that one??
PS: Mountain run over to Little River Canyon on Aug 10th?? With the wrxatlanta crew
-
Great seeing you and the wife Ben!
Yeah man, always a good time!
-
WRXATLANTA meetup tonight at 5 Seasons at the Prado if anyone is interested! Should be a big turnout tonight at 7PM.

Better than mine, I'd love a little flex sometimes. With the spec.b suspension and almost every bushing that whiteline makes things are a bit stiff.. hehe stiff..
Georgia roll call
