I like the Legacy WAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY more than the Impreza in the picture. Purely based on fit and finish :lol:

hehe that's how everything starts

all it takes is one mod to get the ball rolling

 

 

Yeah, unfortunately I wont be doing too much more until I get the ball joint boots and driver side CV boot replaced (CV I noticed last week when i got underneath to look a bit)....then a rear brake job including new calipers since the dealer said they are seeping. they also said the steering rack is seeping, but I'm getting 2nd opinions on it all from a non-dealer shop.

Found stock calipers for $60 ea, but I might check for someone that has WRX or STI rears they are no longer using if they will fit. That work I can do on my own with a little help from my friends...steering rack sounds a bit more involved.

Yeah...they wanted $600 for calipers and $1100 for rack, $50 ea for ball boots, $250 for CV boot, and another $130 to allign and other asst parts...like $2500 total.......no drivability issues, so I wouldnt have known until later...I can get the calipers like I said for $60 ea and $280 for the rack...pads and fluid shouldnt be another $50....Boots wont be too bad either...will just need one of my friends with an open garage and a good weekend, then take it to a shop for an allignment.

That's way to expensive for just that... was most of the money in labor fees?

 

 

no idea, they just had it broken down into total cost for each repair(rack, (3)boots,(2)rear calipers, pads, allignment, 60k svc, brake fluid change and radiator flush + tax and shop materials running close to $3400...about $600 alone for the 60k and $125 ea for flush and fluid changes. They tried telling me that even though I changed with NGK G-plats..the only plugs that would properly work were the "Subaru" plugs *rolls eyes*

 

That's why I'm hitting up a couple other local shops to see what they think about the calipers...they didnt tell me if it was one or both. And they didnt say how bad the rack was leaking either. There have been no squeals or drivability issues, fluid levels are @ their proper locations, driveway was clean when it was snow covered....so we'll see.
