Bet you weren't expecting this now were you?

After deciding it was a good idea to hit someone's Mazda 3 in the ass and write off my wagon id spend 2-3 years rebuilding i was left with some time to think. 

Obviously I wanted another car and im not done fiddling with Subarus just yet. Another wagon of course but I didnt feel the need for another gen 2, coupled with the fact that RX shells are very thin on the ground, especially in good condition and in not shit colours. I decided it was time to move up/down/sideways and into a gen 3. 

Originally the plan was to get a nice one cut up in japan, source a local shell, and do the swap. Due to reasons Import Monster were unable to provide the service for 3-4 months (at least) and I didnt really want to wait that long.

A few days before this news a Legacy popped up in QLD for sale, that truth be told ticked all the boxes

• White
• Rev D-E
• Manual
• Legacy
• Not forked
• Personal Import

So with nothing happening on the import front and money burning a hole in my wallet I sent the seller a message...

2 weeks later we have this




Noice. Its not 100% perfect.

• Scuff on the rear bumper
• Spats and skirts need painting
• Drivers seat is forked
• Single turbo conversion but still running the TT ecu and tune 
• Its in QLD (being looked after by Shaz)
• NSW has forked it and I have to get it trucked down

Other than that it should do nicely. 

My plans are basically the same as my gen 2. Nice compfy street car that can be driven in the twistys without falling over, and as much turbo succ as possible. 

Ive already started buying a few things for it without even having possession of the car lol.

Piano black dash trims


Cusco rear swaybar


White LED conversion for the climate control


I will post some in-depth pics when i finally get the car in a few weeks

nice
