Daniels Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I don't know this area for hidden dh at all. I was at Crockett hills which is all xc. My hidden dh has all been done at Tahoe. I periodically see people disappearing into the woods in DH gear all around the bay area but because of the poison oak I haven't really had a desire to follow them. Santa Cruz supposedly has some of the best hidden trails in the world though. I know Santa Cruz quite well, my buddy Ryan Howard and I are always out there.

ADIKT Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Trailer electrics check. What front lip is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTB Limited Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Got it of ebay. Fits well, considering it's not designed for it. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUBARU-LEGACY-2003-2007-FRONT-LOWER-LIP-BUMPER-SPOILER-SPLITTER-SKIRT-Z1564/263369778005?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kzr750r1 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Trailer electrics check. Paint scheme envy... My preferred body and paint guy laughed at my request to flip all the dark silver panels and bumpers to the light silver with the black running board detail. Said the materials alone would be 2K. Still thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTB Limited Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 You should do it 2K in paint seems a bit steep though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kzr750r1 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 He's trying to scare me away. He did to a fantastic job with my insurance company after the basket ball hoop toppled over on my car. He's mostly not wanting to deal with all the body clips on teardown and install. I bet if it was all said and done be much cheaper. To be cherry again I'd need to replace both bumper skins anyway. There are a few battle scars. Looking at the prices for factory parts it's not that crazy to just buy new. But this is California prices on all his materials has gone up 8 to 12% this year. Plus it only causes cancer in California so add the other commifornia taxes on top of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konns Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 (edited) Guys, what do you think what is the price of this whole Bilstein setup from a spec B including the car's bump stops? Around 150k miles on them in humid England. The seller has replied 500€ which is ~615$. Edited April 23, 2018 by Konns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around 150k miles on them in humid England. The seller has replied 500€ which is ~615$. I would pass unless that was closer to the 280€ mark... simply because they're end of life, and not in great condition. There's a high chance that in less than 10k miles the only thing worth keeping form that lot will be the springs. FWIW, I picked up B6's with pink springs, in excellent condition(no rust, 90k miles), for about 770€ shipped.

Konns Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Yeah I replied to him it's too expensive given their condition. But I mentioned I would be interested in springs for a reasonable price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flinkly Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 funny. your body panels seem rounded off. it's got to be just the rear bumper that's making me think that though. or maybe it's the corner bumper guards (the black strips). * Build Thread * 26.53 MPG - 12 month Average * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTB Limited Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 The bumper strips probably don't help. EDM bumpers are shorter though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christ_MR Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Ok guys i'm gonna need your help on this one. it's been 2 years since I have my 05 OBXT and I finally bought a set of LGT wagon springs. got them for 50$ so it wasn't too expensive. I was planning on running Bilstein shocks (https://www.fastwrx.com/products/bilstein-struts-2005-2009-legacy-gt) with white Sparco Terra. I wanted to know what needs to be done to make this setup work ? the subframe is already out of the car so i'm going to change the bushings for LGT ones. I saw that UCA where different on the LGT but what do I need to change ? thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkycharms Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I'd Recommend at least bumpstops and UCAs. Might as well throw in new top hats and rear spacers too. Dont wait on an alignment.

I killed a set of rear tires in 4k miles due to toe wear I have a used LGT rear subframe that I bough for my brake swap so I am good on the UCA. except UCA and bump stop anything else ? I have read on other forum that removing the subframe spacers in the back is going to be a lot of trouble. anyone here that have done it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
