  1. I have a built Legacy GT done in my driveway. I began the project end of May to mid Aug. It wouldve been my winter project but my friend blew up my motor. Don't worry, he helped pay the bill. So I built my car with a purpose of having a fun, reliable Daily Driver. Here is a list of whats done and had been done and plans for the car. http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/IMG_20150708_132630_zpsdtprmcec.jpg http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/IMG_20150713_132241_zpsqitb3xoz.jpg Engine: Built EJ257 705 Blcok from an 07 STI Bored block because of minor scoring on the walls. (SPun Bearing from previous owner) Wiseco 99.75mm Pistons 2015 STI Rods 2015 STI Crank (nitrated) King Race Bearings Oversized STI Oil Pump Gates Timing Belt Kit with Water Pump ARP Headstuds Freshened Heads w/ porting, polished TGV Deletes Cobb Light Weight Crank Pulley One Step Colder Induction: BNR 18G Turbo w/ vf40 Exhaust Housing Mishimoto Turbo Inlet KS73mm Big Maf intake Tube AVO TMIC (at that time) Grimmspeed EBCS TurboSmart COMP40 EWG Exhaust: Invidia catless DP Grimsspeed Up-pipe with EWG Fuel: DW65c Fuel Pump Stock 550cc Injectors (I know, I forgot. Just wanted my car to running) Drivetrain: Stock........ So after my car was put together, I had my car tuned by Lou Leiberman of ProCom Racing in Toms River New Jersey. Very nice facility and very kind and helpful staff. I must say, my car performs better than stock even witht he low numbers i got due to my injectors. http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/IMG_20150829_191651_zpsgbcl0len.jpg @19.5 PSI my car was at 98% IDC. I Had done 280 across the board. I was very sad but I had just done a recent purchase of Injectors and getting tuned By TurboTek Ray in Pheonix Performance in March. Haven't determined a specific Dyno day but it would be in March. My car at that time will have everything from the top PLUS: 850cc DW Injectors FMS FMIC COMP Clutch Stage 3 CLutch Kit Overhauled Trans My car should be ready by then and i maybe running E85. It depends on what Ray says lol http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/IMG_20150808_121307_zps2mcchxf0.jpg I will have updates and the Dyno sheet once everything is said and done

  4. How low did the rallitek drop your car and what struts were you on? i like the stance on the car
  5. Is there anyway to prevent this? Maybe spacers perhaps on the shocks?
  6. It would just be an affordable set for a long run while I gather money for small engine components later down the road and would probably end up buying new set of springs and strut combo after words if I get bored with them. But I'll see how it rides.
  7. Hey guys. I dont really have this wheel or setup yet but it is in the works right now. Since im leaving for the army reserves for basic and ait, i figured i can use a little bit of the money i earned to help fund half of this. It is a set goal for me to make my car like this and here is the picture. It is photoshopped so i can get a good look of how it will look once the task is complete. http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/photoshopped_zpsd805e3ea.jpg The projected setup would be: XXR 530 17x8.25 wheels Wrapped in BFGoodrich G-Force T/A KDW 2 225/45/17 sitting on Swift Sport Springs w/ KYB GR-2 Struts will definitely roll fenders and pull. Was completely addicted to the look of one other guys setup just like this. My goal is this setup now in the long run
  8. a quick and easy mod i did to save my wallet from ripping itself apart. only cost me $100. With the money i saved, it will probably go towards wheels and suspension and then lean towards an actual catback. Nice deep rumbel to my car with a muffler delete [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EC6a1EquIk4]Subaru Legacy 2.5GT Muffler Delete - YouTube[/ame]
  9. Ok, so im kinda new to this forum but then again i know my way around here.. sorta.. but my next upgrade would be suspension and wheels after my modification to my exhaust. so here is my question, i've heard alot of great things on swifts lowering springs, and im actually leaning towards buying them soon. But my problem is, idk if i should buy new struts at the moment. I like coilovers, but at this point, i cant afford it yet, and im only lowering my car for looks, and a little performance in the streets. Im trying to make it a great daily driver. With the Swifts springs, it also gives me a 1" to a 1-1/2" drop on my car. So what are your opinions on either getting new struts or stayng stock for a little bit and then later on, get new struts If it helps, my car has almost 120,000 miles on it and suspension ride still feels great with no issues.
  10. No tire rubbing i suppose? im really like this setup
  11. what brand are your wheels and tires? ^^^ nice setup btw
  12. Had a little photoshoot with my bud. Here are the photographs that he took of my car and they look amazing. http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/phtoshoot7_zpsfbd4e951.jpg http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/photoshoot11_zps03ac9de7.jpg http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/photoshoot10_zpsbf317808.jpg http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/photoshoot9_zps6b87c71a.jpg http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/photoshoot8_zps57689ccf.jpg http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/photoshoot5_zpsd5985dc4.jpg http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/photoshoot4_zpsd6a3caef.jpg http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/Photoshoot3_zpsd2e9381e.jpg http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/photoshoot2_zps46bed4b0.jpg http://i304.photobucket.com/albums/nn162/toledomaniac89/Photoshoot1_zpsaa4597d3.jpg There will be more photos soon.
