  1. Thanks! The tmic was looking rough so i taped it up and stuck it in the blast cabinet. I painted the top and bottom along with the BPV. I got most of the front suspension on with the front brakes but im waiting on new crown nuts and need to order new endlinks.
  2. Borrowed the neighbors press and changed out all the bushings for mostly whiteline parts. rear diff and outrigger bushings are from turn in concepts and kartboy. Offset front control arm inner rear for + .5 degree caster Transmission is in! Couldn't source an outback manual transmission mount so i spaced out the sti one that came with the 6mt Currently, I'm working on getting the suspension/driveline back together and the brakes on. Merged harness has arrived so that will be next, then it'll be time to drop the engine in and start buttoning things up. heres how she sits now.
  3. Progress has been slow due to the heat in the garage and working a lot of hours at work. Brembos have been painted Engine was taken down to the shortblock for all new seals, gaskets and arp head studs Intake was stripped and painted and engine harness completely retaped. 1" lift blocks for the sti trans mount to keep the outback lift, phenolic spacers and kartboy exhaust hanger bushings. Stainless steel hardware Bought a sandblast cabinet from harbor freight and have been blasting and painting random parts. f
  4. Cleaned up the Saab 9-2x crossmember and steering rack last night and got the whiteline bushings put on. I received the L&E steering coupler but will need to send it back with my outback coupler since i will be keeping the outback 1" lift spacers and the Outback coupler is longer. Chase bay power steering reservoir and hoses Using Rustoleum aircraft stripper to take the powdercoating off.
  5. Yes it is! Soon, very soon! So the motor and drivetrain have arrived! I've been working on sourcing all the little things that i need to get this done and washing as much as possible in my new parts washer. Also waiting on the Ej207 seal kit to arrive from overseas to change everything out including headgaskets and arp head studs. I'm currently stripping down the brembos and will be painting them red. Still need to pull my harness to send off for merging but waiting on resealing the engine first. Did some common modifications to this harbor freight parts washer. added a remote oil filter and a drain valve. These brembo pads and rotors were surprisingly affordable. Still debating on doing new seals.
  6. Nice work so far! really interested in seeing that widebody kit
  7. all of those options sound good. personally, i went with option 3 with jdm exterior and interior stuff.
  8. I'm about to do a turbo swap as well but will be having iwire do the harness merge. Props to you for doing it yourself! Good luck!
  9. Yes! So far, radiator shroud, front and rear strut bars, muffler, wing and air diverter for the hood scoop. Well, it looks like I will be doing an engine swap this summer. Jdm non dccd 6mt is on it’s way from Canada and I should be ordering a jdm ej207 ver 8 and maybe Brembos tomorrow! So far I’ve ordered/received: Aem wideband, oil pressure and boost gauges Driver vent gauge cluster Kartboy shifter bushings and linkage Sti/wrx motor mounts Saab 9-2x front crossmember and steering rack (13:1 ratio) L&E column coupling (to mate up outback column to new steering rack) Manual pedals and clutch master cylinder Timing belt kit Ej207 full gasket and seal kit Sti oil pan, dip stick and dip stick tube Moroso oil pickup Zero Sport air inlet pipe Exedy clutch Aem 340 fuel pump for GD Grimspeed boost controller Jdm BH aluminum control arms (same as GC STi but half the price) Tactrix opensource 2.0 tuner Need to order: Proper axles R160 or R180 3.9 rear diff Front sway bar Iwire harness Manual Trans mount Twin scroll down pipe Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. No it was definitely there from the factory on the outback limited. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. i never wired them up but its only two wires. i was going tap into the dome lights since im running all leds.
  12. thanks buddy:) Me too! I should be getting my hatch and Zero Sports wing painted in the next week or so. The center hole is not used on the ZS so it has to be filled in. I have a jdm GT-B Limited front bumper and crash bar coming in a container sometime in the next few months And I've decided to do a JDM EJ205 AVCS with 5 speed. So far I've order a complete gasket/seal kit and timing belt kit. I'm on the lookout for the right one. Here are some recent pics
  13. I got some carbon fiber mirror caps. Turns out GC8 mirrors are the same as jdm and 95 manual folding usdm. the base is different but the mirror housing itself is the same. The blend in nicely with my paint. Also got some new Federal Evoluzion ST-1 tires which fixed the vibration as was experiencing. I'm really happy with these tires and they were only $360 shipped or so.
  14. The outback and regular Legacy share the same top hat and i did not need to change them. I dont think you would be able to reach the stock Outback ride height with these coilovers.
  15. Jdm TS type R interior is complete! I also used duplicolor vinyl and fabric due on the carpet and I love the results. New leds for the dome and map lights as well.
