Hey all, I figured i'd make one of these to keep track of all the stuff that i've done. I'm on a uni budget at the moment so very little details get done every month. Things might get a bit ghetto and take a lot of time to make something relatively cheap...

I'm aiming for something different to the standard things that people do to Gen 2s these days. I like keeping things real clean with factory parts, which have a little touch to it. I've get many ideas of what could get swapped where etc. and was thinking about an Outback rear sway bar and it's air struts. Still on my P's so the turbo conversion is going to have to wait :(

Exterior:
- Blacked out headlights
- Orange delete
- Unfinished meshed GTB grille
- 5000k xenons

Interior:
- Pioneer S12
- Audiobahn amp

Engine:
- Snorkus delete
- G2S1 intake pipe
- UEL headers
- 2.25" system
- 4" cannon ;)

Suspension
- Stock

Future:
- Get a job that actually fits around uni
- Finish off the grille
- Wire up sub
- Replace that wombat smashed foglight
- Fix the truck sound aka exhaust leak
- WASH
- Heaps of mini details
- STi halfcut
- A non cannon muffler
- 17x7.5, +0

One more headlight needs to be done. Both indicators are all good though.
I really don't want my parents to see a headlight in the oven, haha.

LOL
I'm still a bit paranoid that it is somewhere under my car...
I'd totally ride with those caution signs though!
You can buy me an unamused sticker.

car looks tidy mate! wat are u on bout 17x7.5 +0?

if your talking 0 offset your a long way from fitting those under your guards

what is your daughter going to go tell he friends at playgroup... "this week daddy stopped working and he cooked a headlight in the oven"

lucky it wasn't his wife's car. "this week daddy cooked mummy's headlights in the oven" could have been a rather awkward parent-teacher conference!

Haha, yeah. Uni should stop making their events so fun then! Especially with their $1 Thursdays...

My eftPOS car is living up to the last three letters of it's name and has been saving me money since I can't withdraw without going to a bank.

LOL! Yesss, i'll do another budget mod and print it out for you to stick on your car, haha.

I just want some aggresive wheels! I've been looking at the 'Church of the super aggressive Sooby' thread on NASIOC too much :lol:
I can't seem to find any aggressive offsets for a Liberty. The most is like +35 STi wheels that hardly stick out...

Suggestions? :P

Ahhh the Lib RX is a popular uni car here as well. Its not just the students that drive them, but also the lecturers too! :P Maybe some 18" STi rims (black) would do the job?? I love the aggressive look of them.

I've never seen any other Lib at my uni besides one Legacy wagon. Nah, by aggressive i'm talking about a small offset and wide width.

Picked up the rims incred cheap with great tyres. Finished blacking out the front lights.
Next is to finish up the grille and get the foggies put in again because it looks empty.

If anyone knows who can fix exhaust leaks for cheap in Melbourne, PM me ;)
