JohnnyWas Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Been several years since I owned a Subaru (formerly had a bugeye WRX for 7+ yrs), but I finally got bit by the flat-4 bug again. Entering my 30's with several other projects on the bench, I couldn't be happier to be dailying this beautiful Legacy GT wagon! Purchased bone-stock with just 70k miles, I couldn't leave well enough alone, and this is how it sits in just a few short months of ownership. Long-term goals are to regain the former glories of my WRX - should be fun! http://i64.tinypic.com/igkmy1.jpg http://i66.tinypic.com/zk4s3c.jpg http://i68.tinypic.com/6sc8ee.jpg http://i68.tinypic.com/xt8a0.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't miss the stress involved in driving that thing in NYC either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyWas Posted December 28, 2016 Author Share Posted December 28, 2016 Was unseasonably warm today in Brooklyn, so I decided to snap some pics: Installed JDM HID Projectors about a week ago and couldn't be more pleased with the light output. They seem to wash out my fogs now, though, so maybe I'll do some sort of LED upgrade with them at some point... http://i67.tinypic.com/y0ys.jpg http://i65.tinypic.com/2agrmfl.jpg http://i67.tinypic.com/15doosx.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have air suspension on your Lexus? Thanks a lot! No the Lexus was static on BC Coilovers with upgraded Swift Springs and helpers. Rode great, just not meant for dailying the streets of NYC. Maybe do another VIP build one day, but too many projects and not enough budget rn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
