    Default My 'new' JDM 2000 Subaru Legacy B4 RSK











    Bought this on Friday in Antigua. All I can say is that I love driving it. It has a manual transmission (5 speed) with a 2L boxer engine that has sequential twin turbos.

    Mods (came with car):
    -Double DIN JVC DVD deck w/ Pioneer speakers
    -Kakimoto sports muffler (cat back)
    -JIC coilover suspension
    -17' Volk CE28
    -Turbo timer
    -upgraded clutch (not sure on specifics)

    Things I have done so far:
    -increase boost from 11 psi to 16 psi on first turbo by disconnecting one of the lines (read this on a forum and saw it on youtube)
    -cleaned MAF

    There is a front lip that goes on but at the moment it is being repaired and painted.

    I have no major plans in the future. If I do anything it will probably be an engine management system, but I still have to do alot of research on that.

    Thanks for looking.

    That's pimp yo!! Especially for an island whip!!!

    How's the scene over there?? I sold my S13 because I'm in my final sem...time to leave in December. They just finished the drag strip here and have races every week. Some pretty nice cars have been showing up (Supras, R33's, STI's, EVO's, TT Soarers, TT Fairlady's, etc).

    Car is str8 gangster sir!

    Nice man! I saw some pretty amazing rides in Antigua, like this little gem:


    BALLLIN!!

    And how could I forget our own pimp wagon:



    I miss that place so much. I hope you're enjoying your stay.


    And I remembered this picture and I think you should take its advice:

    Update: my right front coilover snapped where it connects to the bracket. Since they don't sell this part here it looks like it will be going to a machine shop.
    Worst part is my car is at campus right now.

    Also, after being parked for an hour or two with my 4 way flashers on the battery didn't have enough to start the vehicle. Same thing happened last week when I was putting new speakers in and listening to music - the battery drained enough for the car to not be able to start. So should I just get a new battery?

    nismodrifter:
    Thanks!
    The car scene at school (AUA) is non existant.
    However, on the island, there seems to be good number of EVO's and quite a few STI's. Also 2 R35's that I have seen and apparently there is also a third one which I have not seen. I haven't checked out the drag strip here but hopefully within the next few weeks.

    analbumcover:
    Not sure. I have looked up some specs online and it is rated at 280 hp but I am sure that after increasing the boost on the first turbo it should be over 300 (I think). At the wheels, I don't know. There is no 4 wheel driver dyno here.

    msommers:
    I love it here. I most definitely am enjoying my stay, more so now that I am not renting a shit box for 400 us a month!!
    and lol @ the road sign!!

    Here are some pics from yesterday.



    *photos taken by my friend neal with his iphone

    The white Grand Vitara is owned by my boy who helped me out yesterday. He just got it last Friday too.

    Cost me 150 EC to get the right coil over's bracket welded back to the coil over and on the left side the bracket reinforced as it had a hairline fracture developing!
    The car pulls a bit to the left but I will get an alignment done and hopefully it helps.
    Basically by evening time I drove my car home.
