Spec B is an upgrade over the regular and GT brakes, the calipers are better but allow the use of larger rotors (and the rears let you use vented instead of solid rear disc). I'd also invest in a Grimmspeed master cyl brace, I was skeptical but it really makes a huge difference.
All Spec B’s have the same brakes as the LGT, which like mentioned earlier is the largest caliper Subaru makes short of the STI Brembos.

JB weld on mine held up 18.5psi no problem for 25k miles until I went front mount.

Thanks for the info. Very useful. Do you remember where you bought the halos from? Found a few sources but would prefer buying from a proven company.
DiodeDynamics and ProfilePrism are your two best options. DD has the best customer reviews and will last longer with a longer warranty but does not have Bluetooth or switchback functionality with the RGB halos. They have a unit that is RGB only and one that is switchback only while the ProfilePrisms can do both.

Very nice, how is the projected light?

Much is left to be desired but better than OEM.

So......a little info for the fella? They do look good but what is different?

Aesthetically, they have RGB remote controlled halo LEDs, painted gloss black reflector delete, JDM yellow reflectors, clear coated (although not perfectly) also have HIDs and LED turn signals and running lights

New member here with a question. What headlights are these? Looks like the JDM with demon eyes. Are these custom or premade this way? Been looking for some like these to no avail.
They were custom made by me.

Turbo blanket is fine, works better than a heat shield. No need to wrap headers. Down pipe and Up pipe are fine to be wrapped but people are cautious about wrapping the up pipe because it may get soaked in oil if you have a leak, same goes for the headers and that’s a fire hazard

I'm a bit late to the party but I just bought a 2005 Outback XT. I was surprised by how challenging it would be to put a bluetooth system in the car so I achieved it in a sort of round about method. I installed a bluetooth amp and a set of relays to switch the speakers over from radio to bluetooth. I recorded my process in case anyone else wants to give it a go.
I commend you for the hard work you put into this system and the video tutorial, but there is a much simpler way to do this. The JazzyAux mod + RCA->aux cable + an aux to Bluetooth unit powered through the cigarette lighter will work just fine and also gives you controls for the Bluetooth.
Yes, my method is more expensive (~$85) but less than the JDM conversion and much less work than what others have done.

There aren’t many if any AWD Grand Touring cars with manuals so I don’t see that as a deciding factor.

As far as 2019 models, the Audi A4/A5 are probably the only ones left.

Photoshopped, but hopefully this livens this thread up as well because there are some beauts in here. Someone sell me some bags lol

So share the raw image files so that they aren't all compressed. Unless you're just trying to up your Instagram followers. Then you are trying too hard if so.
Alright, alright. I've uploaded them to a dropbox and updated the post.
-
Lol gotta pimp that instagram
Haha, I wanted to share but I didn't want to upload the raw image files anywhere so I took the links from my instagram. Sadly they're extremely compressed now.

As seen from my Instagram

Nice! Where in Cali is that bridge pic?
I found it in the back roads on the way home near Modesto/Turlock. It’s a train track bridge.

Did some tire lettering and added custom LGT Legacy Grand Touring door stickers
-
Love the Gold/White and also Dark Grey/White combinations.
Under the gold is actually a dark gunmetal silver haha
-
Trying something out with the wheels. Recalling digging the gold on white and got some new fog lights as well for the rain.

A cheap set of winter tires will be better than a set of the best all seasons. It’s a pain, but if you really care for safety it’s worth switching them out.

The issue with it being lean most likely due to the cold air intake. It might also be VF52 swapped so if you can check for that too those two would be the culprit. Either way I would invest in a pro tune as soon as possible and stay out of boost especially. The OTS tunes are only safe with the stock air box and turbo. They actually are slightly rich to be safer I believe.
Also 20+ on the AFR with throttle or off? Around that range is safe for no throttle just cruising. WOT should be as close to the lowest the stock sensor will read which is 11

I’m on Koni’s with H&R lowering springs but a full sway bar, end link, strut bar, etc set up. I love the ride for daily driving and road trips and the wheel gap is about a finger and a half. Highly recommend going this route if you don’t need adjustments, don’t ever need to slam the car for shows, or don’t need to go on the track.
I also wouldn’t recommend cheap coilovers, if you have the budget for nice coilovers and sway bars go ahead though. With the amount spent on nice coilovers you can also have the setup I have with the sway bars and etc. I believe H&Rs are good for stock struts as well.

Took Stella for a lil shoot last night

This is how Stella sits right now. Blacked out the fog light covers and added the mud flaps yesterday. Desperately needs to be detailed but it's gonna start raining soon so we'll see if I get around to doing it.

I got a 06 sedan red emblems should I do red rally flaps or just oem??? Haven't seen many rally flaps on legacy around where I'm at. I want it lowered. What would be a good height?? Without camber. Any help would be nice new Subaru owner
I went with just black Rokblokz mudflaps with the white logo, for you I'd go black with red. To me, red mud flaps are just too much on a Legacy. They look better on the WRX/STi in my opinion. For lowering thats all up to you and how much you wanna pay, handling goals, etc. There's a lot of threads out here to help you with that.
Best budget brake upgrades?

Which hawk pads do you use for track? Curious.
