kenny_fatlace Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Picked up a 95' Postal Legacy Wagon a few weeks ago in Reno. I'm a total Subaru noob coming from a Toyota background but ever since i got into snowboarding, its expanded my interests towards them. I have a lot of plans for this car still but here is how it sits as of now. Haven't done much yet but paint the door moldings and some WRX wheels for the meantime. Hoping to pick up some coilovers in the next few weeks. I will probably post all the updates on this car in this thread. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8427/7730748408_c728f80173_c.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8282/7730748282_ca86f47546_c.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8291/7730748152_d6b538d5eb_c.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8282/7730748058_8f8c13bf56_c.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8293/7730747812_a939cee345_c.jpg Old old wagon and the old new wagon www.hellla.blogspot.com http://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1538212/profile/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenny_fatlace Posted August 25, 2012 Author Share Posted August 25, 2012 Where did u find the coilovers?? Those look awesome.... if u dont mind me asking how much I got these coilovers from Evasive Motorsports. $1100 retail. Here are some updated photos after the coilover install. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8286/7855279692_e499ed0529_c.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8305/7855279768_c3ba99fa1f_c.jpg Just picked up a JDM bumper WITH fogs from VENUS MOTOR in Sacramento for f**kin' $150, not sure if this has already been discussed on here. Anyone in the area that needs a JDM bumper for their legacy, they have more (only round fog version left) for same price or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Ed Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I'm from Sac, and haven't been to Venus in years. BTW, I've seen your Toyota several months ago in Japan Town. Clean ride man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenny_fatlace Posted September 25, 2012 Author Share Posted September 25, 2012 Here's a quick update. I painted the bumper which luckily came out good. Never painted body parts before. Haven't taken many photos lately but here's an Instagram photo with the new bumper http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8317/8004931632_d85473732b_z.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

987687 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 The shift button pointing the wrong way would drive me crazy. You know, you can take it off and put it on the other way. It's just two screws... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenny_fatlace Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 You know, you can take it off and put it on the other way. It's just two screws... I had some friends come from Japan and thought that it was cool how the button was on the wrong side since everything is so "USDM" about the car. Thought it was mechanical and couldn't be changed, thank you for the tip i will change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
987687 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 At the bottom of the shifter handle there is a little screw on each side. Take them out, spin it around, and put them back in. I've never put one on backwards. But I've had them off plenty of times. No reason it shouldn't work. It's just a tube with a rod on the inside that gets pushed down. It's symmetrical.

987687 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 WOW! those cleaned up really nice. Just one thing, you're going to want to polish those with some wax compound. I know there are products that'll help preserve them being clear. Often after a headlight restore like that, they'll yellow again very quickly.

kenny_fatlace Posted October 29, 2012 Author Share Posted October 29, 2012 Picked up some Ganador BG5 mirrors off Ebay for pretty cheap. Wired them up and the motors work. Can finally see properly out of the mirrors. They are black with sparkly red glitter (weird, low rider style) but will probably paint later. http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8043/8134086537_8f67bf5944_z.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
