Off topic, but I have a question for my fellow Ohioans: Anyone ever get pulled over/ticketed for having JDM tail lights and/or cleared headlights? Inspection issues? Reason I ask is I just installed the JDM rev d-f tails (look AMAZING) and, even though I knew they didn't have the use of the third bulb, it wasn't till I tested them I realized I'd be invisible from the rear at night (dummy me). I'd planned on clearing the headlights soon but now I'm hesitant to have too many ticks against me if a cop pulls me over and knows what he's looking at. I'm also concerned about the safety of others driving at night. I guess it's just the risk you take and something always in the back of your head? Also gotta think about the upcoming inspection this summer.

'05 with 137k. All stock/original motor and drive train. Owned since 12/15 with 123k. Runs strong but has a laundry list of things to attend to this spring: bubbling heater core, right rear bearing needs replaced (both front replaced last summer), brakes need replaced, fuel lines need to be tightened, rear driver side door actuator not working, downpipe heat shield rattle (not a performance issue but annoying AF), typical Subie rust on rear driver side wheel arch, planning on replacing shocks/struts this summer All-in-all its a great car. Removed the banjo bolt filter last summer and it was clean as a whistle. Change the oil every 3750 miles. Multiple Blackstone reports come back with only some lead in the oil (bearing wear). Need to look into a trans flush (5EAT) and brake fluid as well

Did you have to roll your fenders? I've seen people saying they had to roll at least the rear with the width/offset you're running. Looking to run a similar wheel size

Awesome. Thanks man. Love your ride height, I'm just not brave enough to go that low haha

Hey man love the build. It's funny, I actually followed you on ig before I picked up my wagon last year. Always had a soft spot for wagons. Back when you were on the koni/h&r setup, did you have any issues with the camber in the rear? Just bought the same setup and don't want any surprises haha

I've only seen a handful of LGT sedans and just saw another wagon for the first time a few weeks ago in Willoughby. I'm in Cleveland Heights near Warrensville and Mayfield. Plan on keeping mine as long as it's feasible.. As rusty as she is

I know a Brandon who works out at the LA Fitness in Legacy Village. Only know him because he knew a friend of mine I went to college with, so Idk his last name haha. Same guy, maybe?

Ohh I see. Think it was anything that could've been prevented? I'm hoping to not have similar "luck" haha.

Thanks! What's wrong with the Legacy? I went to the Subaru of Bedford for an allignment after hitting a massive pothole and was pleased with the service. I honestly have never heard of the F4 group before reading up on this thread. I'll have to take a look at that. Wow that's crazy about the blocks. Think they sell them cheaper than a new short block? I'm anxious to get working on my car once it warms up, namely the cat uppipe and banjo bolt filter.. I'd rather have to hit them up for one of those spares haha.

Okay thanks for the info. It didn't seem like there were any subie specialists in Cleveland. I want to try to do most of the maintenance i can by myself, but I'm sure I'll find something I can't

Hi all! Name's Zach and I'm new to the forum and subies. Picked up a white '05 LGTW back in December. I live in Cleveland Heights near Mayfield and Warrensville. Often found around Legacy (hey-oh) shopping center or Coventry/Uptown area. Work in Willoughby as well. Right off the bat, does anyone have any trusted mechanics or tuners in the area they could recommend? Only lived in the CLE a few years so not too familiar with the area. The car is in great shape, but it would be good to know where others go. Especially since I'll be looking at AP or an open-source tune soon. Anyway, glad to be a part of the club (if you'll have me) and maybe I'll see some of you around!
