Show Us Pics of Your 5th Gen as It Sits!! V-2

Yeah I don't hate that at all. Very interesting look.

Holllllllllllld up. I wanna talk about that wing. What is that from exactly?

Looks like a 4th gen wing, but I would be interested to know more as well. Seems like a nicer look than the 5th gen one.

Had ol girls legs in the air all weekend!

 

Wife was gone for the long weekend and I had a long list of stuff to do before Dyno day Saturday.

 

Dropped the turbo, welded O2 bung, fog lights, wiring, bpv, and ran the cabin wires for O2.

 

I need to do plugs but no local shops had them in stock. I ordered them, guess I'll try this Friday.

You probably gonna hate me but i was able to retro fit that wing from 08 Acura TL and i was able to double tape that instead of making holes in the trunk lid. The most that I like about it, that it repeats the curvature of the trunk, however it doesn't have the third brake light...kinda sucks

Looks like the 5th gens have another option for spoilers now.

Yeah, no hate here. An interesting solution the appears to work pretty well. If I didn't know 5th gens as well as I do, it could've fooled me into thinking it was an OEM spoiler.

 

I say that while I'm over here planning to eventually make this a thing.

 

^^^I think that's going to be a one member club,

Complete fine with that haha. Going to finish up the rest of the body stuff I'm planning on doing first though, I'm not fool enough to slap that spoiler on a stock-body car.

Can’t wait for the blitzen

Just rubbing it in a little January 18th today..... got up and went to the golf course, played 18 holes then came home and washed the car...... 13* C (About 56 F) If it gets any warmer I may have to mow the lawn. Oh yeah....and Scooby Too spent most of the day working in her gardens getting ready for spring!!

Gotta love winter in the Pacific Northwest :)

...I was able to get a lot of things off of it but not sure ill have a chance to get major parts off...

It's been my experience that as long as you have the stock parts to replace them, the insurance company doesn't care if you take off aftermarket parts. I took all sorts of stuff off my old WRX with their blessing - as long as the car was whole when they dragged if off, they didn't care. I just had to go to the body shop and tear it down (unmarry the AP, take off parts, etc.)

Bunch of Leggy Butt from years ago.

Here we go ;_;

And the vendor said: car doesn't need snow chains. Well....

Love the unlimited car wash pass. She’s always gonna be clean. Went twice today cause there was a soap mark on driver side door [emoji23]

whit, how are you liking the H&R/Koni setup?

Not really. A Legacy 2012 2.5i I had to dig out twice on that day. But well, half a meter snow is too much for that type of car

Joe, thanks to you and a few others for talking me into it, absolute best setup for the 5th gen. While I haven’t experienced any other combos besides a set of BC coilovers, these are super comfortable for New England driving and drop the car to a perfect height all the way around. I’m still on the softest setting but will prob go a 1/2 turn up front to dial them in. Koni and H&R all day!!

Power washed the salt off of her today after I went to my PO box in Buffalo to pick up my new summer rims!

You can have wheels shipped to a P.O box ?

I had quickly washed my car on Saturday but it had gotten dirty again from the wet roads on Monday and Tuesday. We had a really heavy rain on Tuesday and it washed my car off. (Usually rain doesn’t clean my cars off, but even my rear bumper was clean). Anyways I thought it looked neat and it nice to see the water still beading on my car even though the last time I waxed it was in September. I am probably should have just taken a close up of the water beading.
