Beautiful just beautiful. I want my legacy at this point already. Love it, can't wait to see more pictures!

 

Thank you! I know someone local who does excellent photography, just trying to find time in both of our schedules to make it happen!

Loving the STi turbo. Romping around on boost constantly. Its an absolute blast to drive. Just got a fresh tune, it made 360whp and 420wtq on a dynapack. And i dont have instagram but i may have to just to see what your talking about, people making me famous and i dont even know it. haha :lol:

Haha yeah because I would see this car whenever they have meets and I remember seeing your car with the license plate infront and that blue piping lol. Wow! Nice numbers, I want to hit something like that after I do a swap because I want to find another motor for my legacy and switch auto to manual I hate auto, boring and no power. Damn I bet it's a lot of fun I was thinking vf52 or 18g depending on money.

That probably wasn't me, i have never had a front plate, i luckily never had my front bumper drilled. haha And also never had blue piping, nonetheless i hear you on hating auto. Its easier to drive, but there's just something about a manual. And i was debating on going vf52 when i found the vf48. At the time it was a deal, so i went with it and seeing as i already went fmic it was a cake walk of a swap. Happy with the outcome.

Haha no I meant like that one picture, that you have with the hood open. Can't tell what color is that on the intercooler piping and license plate on the grill, but I know I've seen that picture on Instagram lol. Yeah right now I'm driving a 94 escort gt 5 speed manual and loving it but I miss my legacy gt, the turbo and power. Has some weird squealing noise comes and goes and sounds like it's coming from the engine. I don't blame it since it has 162k now, bought it when it had 144k 2 years ago. I've done so much to it I can't possibly let it go. So I've been looking in options to either rebuild my engine, or just find another motor with less mileage and tranny, full package. Open that motor up just incase and put Manley pistons, eagle rods or Manley, gates timing belt kit and gaskets, that would be about it. Or since I'm in college and money is so tight I could just let the motor stay like that stock. I could leave it stock and add my mods i have now and just dyno it. I want to go with 740 or 850cc injectors and 265 fuel pump, fmic and EWG with equal length headers on a 18g turbo but that won't be done until another year.

 

Sorry have you a book to read xD.

haha no biggie. And yes, that picture! But its always about decisions, decisions. I actually have a set of Deatschwerks 850cc im selling that i ran for oh...2400 miles. i just bought the 1100cc so i didnt have to buy them later when i go built and rotated. and run out of injector. They will be posted soon, they're practically new.

Really? How much you selling them for? Because right now I'm just trying to get a job because I worked in construction but can't do that anymore because of school. My legacy still drives but id rather not drive it to mess it up more.

Car looks good man. Need more pic's though. Whats in store for the future?

 

Yes I do! Its in the works. I have a buddy with a nice camera that does some excellent photography so that's soon to come. For now this is the setup I'll run. Eventually I've got plans to go built and rotated. But I am a full time student so for now that comes first. But its an absolute blast and I'm happy with the results.
