Jerboa113 Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 ya know I was just thinking of the cost to build this car out of mine.. it'd cost more than the car is worth.... how in the world did you do all this??

Arith Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 Unfortunately car prices in Australia are double that of North America so it will be difficult to spend more on mods than the car is worth. Plus for more money, one can get the limited STi version which has some nice bits already included (ie- STi lip spoiler, STi front lip, STi quad tips, Brembos, etc).

wpgspecb Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 thats funny you say aud prices are double because Australia is much closer to china/japan than we are (canada/usa) now in my case my legacy is made in Indiana(usa) where your legacy is made in japan, am I wrong?

Verwilderd Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 dang! That's ridiculous! I will say...this is something Americans often forget. We have some of the best prices on things like vehicles and electronics. People here really don't realize how lucky we are sometimes and it annoys the s*** out of me.

Arith Posted October 11, 2009 Author Share Posted October 11, 2009 now in my case my legacy is made in Indiana(usa) where your legacy is made in japan, am I wrong? Wow, I never knew USDM Legacys were made locally in the US (like the Accords and Camrys)! But high volumes of sales and domestic manufacturing has certainly made the price a lot lower. Whereas in Australia, volume isn't high enough to justify local production nor warrant lower prices, so the Libertys/Legacys have to be imported in from Japan against the higher Yen. Sux big time.

Jerboa113 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 current usdm legacies and outbacks are made in the same plant.. and probably the same assembly line.. probably using the SAME PARTS as the toyota camry.

05longroof Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 legacys outbacks and tirbecas are all on the same assembly line at SIA lafayette IN. Camrys are on a separate assembly line. Arith your car is really amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arith Posted February 12, 2010 Author Share Posted February 12, 2010 where did you find the cusco radiator support bar? Umm, one of my friends got one for me from Cusco Japan. I'm sure most suspension places that sell Cusco gear should be able to order one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
