Finally got a Subaru: Beatrix.
I've been here for 5-6 years, and just started looking through the Garage section. Very cool threads by the way. Lots of ideas and cool projects going on.
So ever since I was a newly graduated 18 year old, and first laid eyes on the 2.5 RS, I've wanted a Subaru. Because of the decisios I made in life, I haven't been able to afford one till now. I do not like debt, I lived abroad in the jungle for 2 years, came back and went to school, got married, had 2 kids. Life has been a great adventure and I've loved every minute of it. but until now, I just couldn't swing the car I've really wanted.
I recently bought a 2005 Legacy GT and am able to have my company pay for it! (yay, car allowance!) It came with some really nice modifications (courtesy of the previous owner, who is a Beyonder):
- Borla Hush Exhaust
- Cobb Up Pipe
- STi Down Pipe
- Kartboy Short Shifter setup
- JDM Rear Sway Bar
- Open ECU Tune
- Jazzy mod stereo
I love the car - despite having now to replace the clutch and flywheel less than a month after buying it. So I'm looking forward to getting a nice, durable Stage 1 and lightened flywheel setup. I'm not a gearhead myself, nor do I have the space to get out the tools and learn. So for now, I'll lean on the boys at Tunerworks to source the parts and do the install work.
Looking forward to learn more about the car and progress with smart modifications that will boost the performance and still make for a comfortable and reliable daily.

. I've always liked this body style best for the legacys. If you haven't already, you should join WSC. Lots of good information and friendly members on that site.
