But nice news with the conversion, did you go for the wrx as mentioned or the sti, you never confirmed which

But not sad at tarbot conversion. Also interested in what motor package you're going.
Cheers,

Went with a 2004 wrx. Will be buying a Blouch TD05 18g and a tune to get some really good power gains.
Not STi?
Those are the last of the 2.0 IIRC?
Will be sweeeeet when it's done

Japan continued with the 2.0L. Australia switched to 2.5L for emissions, so JDM cuts after 04 will still have the 2L.
Not STi?

Sad to ..read that the vinyl will not be completed
But nice news with the conversion, did you go for the wrx as mentioned or the sti, you never confirmed which
Yeah the vinyl looked extremely TACKY (only word besides shit to describe it).
So i ripped it off and am getting quotes to respray the whole thing. Candy Red comes to mind, as well as wrx blue with the white rims.
For the time, effort and money I would have gone with an STi cut.. But it's your choice and i'm sure it will be enough power to get you going anyway

Yeah, it would have been too expensive to get an STI engine from Japan though, I thought about it, and couldnt find any that I wanted...
I also want Ben to do the conversion, so decided that he could get the right cut for me.
The turbo I am getting, as well as the tune Im gonna go for is going to be more than what im looking for.
Not STi?
Those are the last of the 2.0 IIRC?

Cant wait for Ben to open NeoGarage. He said about a month, and then 2 weeks for the loom to come back...
I should organise a cruise like last time for when its finished and Im about to drive it home!!!
Rotas SHIPPED!!! Should be on the car tomorrow arvo!

I have ordered a set of these time too.
Bought a set of the hollow ones of these wheel nuts in this colour...
And also needed some new number plates!
Went with these.

I'm unsure how that'll look on an outback... Choose wisely!! Candy red or whatever appealed to me on a account of some gen1 wagons i've seen..
Sam 07 Jun 2012
So these blue nuts and plates mean you're pretty keen on going with a blue colour then, does it?

Yeah don't mind the blue.. So will stick with it.

9.5"
So much stretch!
Looks waaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy better than before.
Shaz 09 Jun 2012
Do you have aftermarket camber bolts in the rear? If not, you need to get some, and sort that out.
Rims look good though!
Sam 09 Jun 2012
Any idea which ones to get? (link?)
Shaz 09 Jun 2012
$540 vs $110.
If you're going turbo, and want to be able to adjust settings easily, i'd go the control arm kit personally. Why skimp out now?
