Collin (with the Starlet and Puegot) and I brought you up in discussion just yesterday at Cars and Coffee Tacoma. He said you usually attend the C&C in Woodinville. Might have mention you selling the GT-Four. Anyhow, looking forward to seeing the car next weekend! 1 MILKRUN - Click Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanyb505 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 In April of 2016 I finished my engine build and got back on the road with 203,305 miles on the car. Last night on the way back from getting takeout the car hit 253,305 miles, 6.5 years after first start up. 50,000 miles on my hack job of an engine feels nice. Ultimate goal is 100k, or 10 years, that way I can update the build again while doing a timing belt. Same thing I did last time. Thanks for all the info and support legacygt.com! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xt2005bonbon Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Nice. I rebuilt mine (with new short block) during Covid (~March-May 2020). It's already been 40K now! I have a JMP VF52 and now thinking of getting a DOM 1.5 XTR. I need more juice as I am using crappy 91 vs 93 and live at 2600ft altitude. Need to compensate you know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is my Starlet GT Turbo done in Castrol livery. Sold the GT-4 to get a Pajero Evo. Still have my Evo4 and a few other JDM cars. The Pajero will be here mid October! Wrap is complete and the car is back together. It looks amazing! My favorite wrap I’ve done to date. Can’t wait to share it Saturday. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch some old Best Motoring vids on youtube. The EVOs regularly dominate the track battles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you an might get flamed but I had a wicked white EVO when they first came out. It drove so much better then my 04 STI ever did. I love the STI but the EVO was solid.

pksystems Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Silicone hose kit arrived and I decided to try and figure out where they all go. Pulled radiator and timing covers to get a better look at the hoses coming out of the water pump. Ordered all aluminum radiator. I'm no expert, as this is the first Subaru timing belt I've seen, but I think I have another project to add to the list before this car starts again? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tehspud Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Started prettying up the wagon for WagonFest this weekend. Started with the headlights and Griot’s “extreme” restoration kit. Pretty good results, I’d say! Before, not too bad for 17 years, but a little haze: After: Tomorrow will be a nice wash, clay, and wax, and hopefully time to at least vacuum the inside. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GearJamr Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Lovely headlights. Where did you get the Griot kit? All I can find up here is Mother's or Meguiars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ordered it from their online shop, though apparently they distribute to O'Reilley's and Autozones in Washington. They have a few places in Canada, but not close to Ottawa. https://www.griotsgarage.com/store-locator/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got lots of detailing you need to do? Ima keep looking, there must Be something in Ontario, but maybe not? I also want to try the ceracoat solution, I’ve done my headlights a couple times with different coatings, and nothing seems to last more than a few years at best. I’m keen to test the ‘lifetime’ ceramic protection, given the reasonable price of entry. Edited September 21, 2022 by KZJonny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tehspud Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 I knew it was in the forecast, just didn't expect it as heavy as it is, or during my morning commute. I have to get over a mountain pass to get to WagonFest anyway, so I was fully expecting to have to at least go over the car with a quick detailer on the other side. Fresh coat of wax should make that fairly simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Febreze Mee Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Also been prepping for Wagonfest! Fender liners are back in, headlights are being restored, plates were ordered, windshield was replaced. More last minute prep to follow tomorrow. 2 MILKRUN - Click Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve owned several STIs up to 2015 and I’ve driven my buddies 2021. Evo is just different. Still love my wagon though. I’ve owned enough of ‘em. Probably always have one stashed. iPhone pic Wagon preview. First one I've posted. Rest on Saturday. Maybe tomorrow when the battery on my Cannon is charged. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
