rhino6303 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Not to my legacy and not today, but I lifted our Outback Sport on Sunday with the finishing touches on Monday evening after work. Next up is bigger tires and an alignment! The pictures are from before and after; sorry that the quality isn't the greatest. http://i463.photobucket.com/albums/qq356/rhino6303/20130518_220920.jpg http://i463.photobucket.com/albums/qq356/rhino6303/20130518_220935.jpg http://i463.photobucket.com/albums/qq356/rhino6303/20130519_204811.jpg http://i463.photobucket.com/albums/qq356/rhino6303/20130520_203310.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhino6303 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 It actually is, but we make frequent mountain trips and fishing trips and I got tired of bottoming out on trails! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes sense then. I like it. Curious to see how it looks with some beefy tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulace Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Agreed, I am interested in seeing how beefy tires look, too! Also, I want to thank you for lifting the Outback, not lowering it like some people do.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxkita Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 drove to work for the 3rd day in a row. I never knew the morning commute could be so much fun. If I got Kudos, too, my cup would be overflowing... Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New LGT Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Traded in my LGT a couple days ago. If any forum member has questions on mods let me know. Accessport has been unmarried and removed from car, but I have maps saved and can pass them along for stage 2 + PW TMIC goodness. http://www.westhillshonda.com/bremerton-used-cars/detail/2008-Subaru-Legacy-4dr-H4-Auto-GT-Ltd/391/4S3BL676284200038 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New LGT Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 You traded your car in with aftermarket parts on it and unmarried the AP right before doing so? Or did you part the car out? It was a poor descision on my part I know and a spur of the moment purchase, so prep was out the window. They didn't know what the AP was, so I was able to pull in the parking lot and drive to ensure it didn't throw a code. I hope the new owner can appreciate what they're getting which is why I posted up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the new owner doesn't end up buying a ticking time bomb and that they understand they'll need a tune. At least go back and leave a note in the glove box or something.

.Catalyst. Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 WOW! If you leave parts on a car that require a tune and aren't taking it back to stock - leave the tune and tool with the car. Your car karma will thank you later. After the shop monkeys at that dealership flog it for a bit it is bound to have major mechanical issues. But hey you can make $400 off that AP and know you fucked off anyone who buys it My spec.B [#163] Project Thread with Pictures Get CryoTuned!

a93x Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Please go back and tell them they need to tune it. Seriously. Or just give them the ap. or deliver a stock down pipe and ask them to install it.

goneskiian Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Alignment done. I definitely noticed the more stable front end with the whiteline kit on there. Still feel the wide tires pulling in the ruts a bit though. I need to get it up on 90 East into Issy to really test it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I feared some transmission or other issues were gonna pop up and I wouldn't feel right selling private party in that condition. And I didn't want to waste any more money diagnosing it :/ You betrayed us... lucky I'm sorry! Lol. Ill still attend meets and frequent the site.

Gex Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 A93x it always sounded like you got the short end of the stick with your lgt. I hope your wrx is much less problematic! Let's see some pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It honestly was the worst experience I've ever had. From going to a truck with 0 problems and no maintenance, to a car I thought I would be able to enjoy but instead putting almost the same amount of CASH into it, as I mistakenly paid for it, was really a kick in the nuts. I wish I could have parted out the Brembos / new tires & wheels / TBE / EBCS and the boost gauge but I got so nervous about the trans. I literally thought it was on it's last leg. I'll still be at NWSPECB next meet and I hope anyone in the area can make it out to the cruise I'm setting up on the 15th!http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/05/26/y7y8eze8.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/05/26/umavu7e2.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/05/26/yhanupa4.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/05/26/ahunu7a9.jpg torque impresses girrls, hp impresses flat-bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legacy360 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Replaced all four wheel bearing/hub assemblies today. It was a good experience, but the rears are a bit of a PITA because of the suspension configuration. The roaring sound from the driver rear is gone now, so I can ride quietly inside the cabin on my commute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
