Alpine F31 Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 yep! 1/2" wider than old ones, still using the 215's from the old ones too which give a bit more stretch and you can see the wheel lip nicely. I want to max out the factory eccentric bolts though and see if I can at least get a little camber on it, the wheels are way too straight for my taste. I think it looks perfect just the way it is. Love the color of the car and the style of the wheels. The gloss black is just right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertyFLS Posted June 18, 2014 Author Share Posted June 18, 2014 Got some engine bay bling. I had ordered the Megan stb which is a million times nicer but it hit the firewall so I got the eBay cheapie. Bummer is that my wholesale price on the Megan was only a little more. Oh well this looks nice and I could tell right away it was tighter in corners. Stb are a great cheap mod that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacobpockros Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Same exact bar I bought off my friend's Impreza. When I got mine I had to flip the bar so the bend faces upwards like yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertyFLS Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 I think it would still fit with it more turned back towards the fire wall, but I can't imagine it does much good that way. An aluminum bar can't be much stiffer than the firewall, so IMO this way is more "logical"... Dropped my wife and kids off for their summer trip to Japan, sadly I'm not going this year. However, she is going to be bringing me back a few sets of clear corner tails for the BH wagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kdubsteezey Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 UEL headers make such a difference in sound, they give that growl subies are supposed to have! Your gonna love them. Sick car BTW!!! Very tasteful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertyFLS Posted July 17, 2014 Author Share Posted July 17, 2014 Put my JDM clear tails on. The best part was they only cost about $28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboLag23 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 ^^ HOW?! At that price, I'd snatch some up in an instant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboLag23 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Haha awesome. Also, in reference to your earlier post (on 6/19) where you mentioned "a few sets of JDM corner tails for the BH"... did you wind up picking up more than one set, perchance??

LibertyFLS Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 She didn't want to bring another set back sadly. On another note I put some shiny stainless unequal length thingies on it Saturday. Sounds nice got that rumble. Only had a hard time on one of the bolts at the down pipe. Other than that a little pushing and pulling to line it up and overall very easy swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertyFLS Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Lowered it a bit more. With 450 pounds of 10x20 tents, can't believe 4 of these frames and the tops fit with no problem! Does look nice with no gap tho =/ Loving the new sound on the road, can't really tell if it's any more power, maybe a touch but whatever, sounds nice and rides good. If this motor dies, I'd like to make it a 3.0 GT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yaya20 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Still looks like a little gap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertyFLS Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 yeah, a little bit lol.. I'd like the tires to be tucked but I already have another car that fills that gap (pun intended haha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derp Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 no sense in tucking tires in a work vehicle, even if the work vehicle looks damn good when it's not being used for the job I could suck start a snow blower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertyFLS Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 Drove it on the beach! Oceano Dunes off road vehicle area near Pismo Beach. Was so fun, even though you can't go over 15 mph, it was still a blast. First time I've ever driven on a beach before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTEASER Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Subscribed to this fantastic build!!! I'm about to pick up an '01 GT Wagon myself. I like the way the H&R's look. I may be PM'ing you for some guidance on suspension and wheels.

LibertyFLS Posted October 2, 2014 Author Share Posted October 2, 2014 Bump, lowered the price, this is a great deal for the base cost of the car plus all the mods you can save about 2-3k over doing it yourself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertyFLS Posted November 1, 2014 Author Share Posted November 1, 2014 Well everyone, she's officially gone to a new owner who I think will treat her well. He said he actually found this thread so he knows exactly what a nice car he just took off in. I am a little sad, but I like to build a car and move on (except my M45 which I think I'll keep forever). There's a good chance I'll be back in a Subaru so until then, take care everyone.
