axis008 Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 Your job rocks!!!!!!!!! No questions at this time. :) Welcome to the board. -ben
Guest *Jedimaster* Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 Dude! Welcome! I'll double your hourly rate if you get me my car faster than the end of July ;)
antelope Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 What are some of the most popular options that you are seeing put on the Legacys? Welcome - what a cool job!!!! :D
SUBE555 Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 Welcome! Nice to have someone on the inside around. Maybe some of us will be there in the fall for a plant tour if things can get figured out between SoA and SIA. :)
orpie_lightfoot Posted June 21, 2004 Author Posted June 21, 2004 What tour is this? That would be cool. That probably won't happen
SC GT Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 So, how do you avoid the temptation to take them over 4K?
gtguy Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 I almost crashed driving down to Indianapolis for the USGP...there is a stand just outside the Subaru plant that has a new Legacy (and Outback, I think) on it. I thought for a second that it was a rest stop, and that there was actually someone driving the car, but no, it was just a static display. :lol: Kevin
SUBE555 Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 I'll take a pic in front of there next time I drive by there in the next week or two when I deliver my current machine. :)
Th3Franz Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 Would you happen to know the specific model of turbo in the 2.5GT? Or, the speaker sizes front and rear in the GT? :D Also, is there an armrest extension available? I thought I remember seeing that it was, but it would have to be dealer-installed. -Franz The end of a Legacy http://www.youtube.com/th3franz
SC GT Posted June 21, 2004 Posted June 21, 2004 Same questions as Th3Franz. Also, do you know the weight of the 5 spoke GT rims (without tires)?
SUBE555 Posted June 22, 2004 Posted June 22, 2004 Plant tour, was supposed to be set up by someone at SoA, but came down to last minute and things fell apart. Not a big deal to me, gave me more time to work and will have the new car to make the trip, but I'll make sure to inform anyone interested about making a trip to the factory if/when it will happen, next target date is in August/Sept hopefully. Should work for me. :)
7stars Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 My car was ordered June 15th. It was one of the last to get on the assembly line before the cutoff. When do you think it'll make it out to CA?
Two-Five Sti-L Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 Can u chk and confirm for us what is the size and bolt pattern of the OEM wheels for the GT? Is it 5X114.3, 17X7 w/+55 offset? TIA

7stars Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 Well, the Legacy is here. Can someone verify this for sure?
WRXTom Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 5 x 100. The 17" Rotas from my WRX fit just fine. Tom
gtguy Posted June 24, 2004 Posted June 24, 2004 The Imprezas are getting the 5x114, but not the Legacies...just yet. I rather imagine that eventually, everything in the line will be 5x114. Kevin

SC GT Posted June 28, 2004 Posted June 28, 2004 Another question from another thread: How, if at all, does the strut valving and spring rates differ between the USDM GT and the JDM GT? Is SPT going to bring over the some of the STi Legacy parts? Is SPT going to have Bosal create a Legacy GT exhaust? Also, I haven't seen the back of the Legacy stereo yet, but the WRX stereo had a connector in the back that no one could figure out its use. Does the Legacy have that connector, and if so, what is it for? And when are we going to get some answers to the previous USDM questions?
gtguy Posted June 29, 2004 Posted June 29, 2004 Seconding what SC GT has queried, even if we don't know precisely how the USDM strut differs from the JDM strut; 1. What type of strut do we get? 2. What are the spring rates? 3. Do the wagon and sedan have the same spring rates, or, as per Subaru usual, does the wagon get higher rear rates than the sedan? Kevin
