br subaru wagon

16 July 2012 - 09:18 PM

Moved in a completely new direction, this is the third subaru coming from a legacy wags into a gtb and now this. ok time to throw this over to a build thread now

so we are starting with this ............................

2011 subaru liberty gt premium wagon in charcol(yes i know the pic is silver but could find a pic)

blistein shocks , sat nav, reverse cam, 6sp manual, lthr , etc.............................................(wont go into heaps of details as most of you already know it well)

So yes very standard considering the price tag with this wagon. Sitting at dealers now waiting on parts to arrive

so ive added the following to start with
Front sti spoiler
Rear sti spoiler(getting painted)
Revised grill set back into bonnet more with mesh, and painted surround(this may change yet)
Sti gear knob(factory one is just crap)
Window tint
Paint protection

A small list to start with, looking at wheels right now(standard fittment is just plain ugly) so tossing up between 18" sliver sti rims ?? , enkei gtc01, or works emotion.
looking for something which is diffrent and pref a lighter coloured rim. deff not racer style


Also looking at what parts i can get from subaru japan , as they have lots more to choose from than or aus dealer??

thats it for now. as i sit and wait for it to be ready there will be more updates as i go.

something new

13 July 2012 - 08:39 PM

Now the gtb wagon is gone and having spent months before and some after searching and having no luck finding the 08 sti wagon i wanted , i bit the bullet and bought this :

Knowing some have a luv/hate (styling wise) thing with this model its starting to grow on me so the new ride..................................

2011 br gt premium , sitting at docklands waiting for it to be ready to go

will be starting a new thread in builds soon, with updates as this becomes something more than it is now

already planed for sti lip, rear tailgate spoiler, new grill and just deciding on what wheels to go with.

Plenty of other ideas as to what direction to take this, but being a daily drive there are some limits.

valve stem seals

28 April 2012 - 10:51 PM

just looking for advice
how many of you have ever replaced valve stem seals on a 2.5 motor?
do they normal start to wear(ie leak down causing slight white smoke on cold start up)
thanks
