So here's a pic of her This was 2 hours after I got out of her, the water had gone down significantly but still...sad http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=237427&stc=1&d=1473665204 The a$$ end made the news that night Still a fine a$$ though... http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=237428&stc=1&d=1473665204 Progressive hooked it up with a $30 rental coverage for 30 days max.. but for $6 more I can get a..... 2017 Camaro LOL hell yes.

Legaroo Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 So she's a 2006 with 151k on her.. lotta miles but that's alright. Two families have owned her, one for 6 years of her life and the rest with the other... Adult driven the whole time but lightly modded.. just the way I wanted it... -Turboback exhaust (still gotta get under her and figure out what she's got going on exactly.. quiet..needs cats removed lol) -V2 Accessport -Cobb Intake -Tein Springs -Cobb dual adjustable Short Shifter (needs adjusting) -Pioneer DVD Dual Din Headunit (with dash swap) So in the next post I'll detail what's coming in the mail very happy I could get the TBE and AP included in purchase price. Took a good 1500 off of what was gonna be done to her in the beginning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legaroo Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 Wondering if anybody knows where I can source the stash tray and cig lighter section below the stereo and climate controls? (please disregard the shift knob and shift boot... they're being replaced lol) Also would be looking to replace the faux woodgrain on the sides of the console if anybody could source that too!!! http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=237431&stc=1&d=1473670630 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holla Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Call some local junk yards for the interior trim pieces or check the part out classifieds, those pieces are easy to ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merc6 Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 My post isn't here anymore.... Welcome to our section of the forum. Did the original owners... Delete banjo screens? Upgrade clutch? Swap Up Pipe? Use a tune other than what came on the Acessport? Faux strips could be covered in vinyl if you like. I plan on doing that since it doesn't even match the wood on the steering wheel. Not sure how they decided real wood wheel but completely different grain faux plastic wood elsewhere. Oil valve, you going nipple or no nipple? Either way is better than oem where you pee oil all over the tire. 2005 Satin White Pearl Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT Unlimited 5EAT (Project Car) 2019 Agate Black Ford Explorer XLT 4WD (DD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legaroo Posted September 14, 2016 Author Share Posted September 14, 2016 Merc, I have to ask about the banjo screens, that's a good question. The clutch is brand new (5k, stage 1 but I have plans to upgrade this when I get a stronger gearbox next year) The uppipe is done but no it's just the stage2+ OTS tune. I tried to book with the local AP tuner and they're in the middle of acquiring a new hub dyno.. definitely don't want to be the first they run on that lol Gonna let em practice so its the OTS map which does run a bit rich but still the numbers are acceptable. Great idea about the vinyl that's much easier than replacing them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legaroo Posted September 26, 2016 Author Share Posted September 26, 2016 So got around to repainting the grille...she was UUUUGGLLLLYYYY. Someone before me did a number on it.. had to fix the mesh and sand it a bit but it came out..tolerable Before http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=238287&stc=1&d=1474912114 After http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=238288&stc=1&d=1474912114 She needs a bath lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good find, thank you! No, it is not one piece. And I'd be interested in your mpg display if you don't want it. Also, sorry to see that you lost your LGT to flooding. That must have sucked real bad when it happened . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legaroo Posted October 11, 2016 Author Share Posted October 11, 2016 Busy man today over here lol Front lip installed New headlight housings installed New HIDs in said housings New HIDs in foglights (pain in the ass to wire up) Bumper quick release installed So everything went well with the headlight housings those were a breeze to change.. the HIDs were kind of a pain in the ass cause I had to solder up a new harness but still no big deal..They definitely needed to be done. I'm going to restore the old ones and crack em open for some LEDs and a clearing I think... http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=239046&stc=1&d=1476148123 The fogs were kind of a PITA to install cause you have to modify the covers just like the headlights but there's way more involved. It's all done though and it looks great! They also needed to have custom harnesses made, easy though. http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=239047&stc=1&d=1476148123 My amazon S204 lip fit really nice and went on easily. None of the mounting points were used as it was designed for a 2006 WRX link (https://amzn.com/B008WGOF3M) Today's progress pic... http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=239048&stc=1&d=1476148123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xt2005bonbon Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 what did you use to restore the lenses? which leds are you going to use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merc6 Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 what did you use to restore the lenses? which leds are you going to use? Says new headlights installed, I'm partial to the 05 housings as that's too much chrome for me. For my restore I used meguiars ultimate compound and a DA buffer. Came out nice for about 20 mins of work but I didn't seal it from the elements. It slowly reverted back to cloud after 6 months of driveway gnome duties. I have a UV clear spray paint I was suppose to use on it but didn't feel like pulling the bumper or masking it off on the car. 2005 Satin White Pearl Subaru Legacy 2.5 GT Unlimited 5EAT (Project Car) 2019 Agate Black Ford Explorer XLT 4WD (DD) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legaroo Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 At 151k Miles -FINALLY got around to doing an oil change with T6 and an OEM filter.. gotta look into a smaller filter wrench because I had to hammer a screwdriver into the old filter.. was way too small for the wrench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reasons, the word 'housing' made me think it excluded the lenses. I used some Costco toothpaste a couple weeks ago . It helped a little.
