SaggioWRX Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 After owning a 99 OBS, 02 WRX, 06 WRX wagon, 2 04 STi's, 05 STi, and many other cars, I've had my eye on getting a OBXT. Love how Legacy's ride in general, so I went and bought this 2007 OBXT Limited 5-spd. So far I LOVE IT!!!

Old Davy Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Good choice, Sir. Nice to see folks are still doing this. Interesting to be sure...coincidentally, up here in southern Canada, I dropped mine on OEM LGT wagon suspension just this past Tuesday and couldn't be more pleased with the stiffer flatter cornering improvement. http://www.toronto-subaru-club.com/forums/technical-suspension/151134-lowering-my-06-obxt.html#post1270006 May I ask please, what rubber are you running on those Outback alloys? Are those the OEM 225/55/17s? I shod my Virus alloys with 215/50/17 Eagle GTs for summer, taking no chances of fender rub. My Outback alloys will be shod with winter Ice tires so I'm thinking 205/55/17 for deeper snow grip if the Outback OEM size doesn't fit right...

OutbackXT05 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Looking good so far. The legacy suspension was one of my first upgrades too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Can you measure from the center of the wheel to the fender for me?

kongzilla Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Did you get your alignment done? It shouldn't be off by much but enough to get it fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaggioWRX Posted July 31, 2011 Author Share Posted July 31, 2011 Yes, I'm still using the 225/55/17 OEM size rubber. No issues. Can you measure from the center of the wheel to the fender for me? Sure thing. I'll measure and post it up. Did you get your alignment done? It shouldn't be off by much but enough to get it fixed. Alignment will be done this week sometime.

Here is mine: http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6014/5952226340_6fca5c1f2a_b.jpg Every time there is a thread with a lowered OBXT there is ten pages of questions about the LGT suspension. So funny.

OutbackXT05 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Every time there is a thread with a lowered OBXT there is ten pages of questions about the LGT suspension. So funny. Thats because us outback owners are careful. And want to be 100% sure that it can actually be done. I know when I was looking at legacy suspension I asked 100 questions to 4 different people to make sure it'd work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I feel like I asked a bunch of questions before starting my Bilstein install too. I really want to look into removing all of the body spacers, though. That'd be the final component of turning the car into an LGT wagon.

Sublimejoe Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 I'd like to know about the spacers as well, so let us know when you figure something out. I need to tighten my suspension a bit still, what do you guys recommend to get thugs started, sways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradze Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 not many, the first day i got i drove over some boulders no problem, and the other day i went up a jeep trail with no issues and its completely stock. only things ive changed are an afe dry flow air filter, and i replaced the "subaru" emblem with "lesbaru". got in big trouble with the wife for that but my friends think its hilarious and her lesbian friend thinks its the best thing ever. i wanna paint the chrome trim around the windows and powdercoat the wheels, but nothing too crazy. about to get an 89 325i and would rather put my money towards building that into a pro3 race car. after i hit the wall in portland with evo, i definitely knew 1 car was bad idea. whole point of getting outback, i love it! 30 mpg and its just as good as a jeep offroad while being super comfortable, reliable, and practical. you still run solar reflections?http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x86/lilyluvr77/lesbaru-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
