Hi all,

As you may know, I recently bought GRADG's old STI Outback..

Here's a photo from yesterday:



and one from Sat night (when I got home from driving it from Newcastle to Canberra)



Long lnog list of things done to it, But what I have planned is:

Clean it up
Rear tailgate rattles like a bell - change all plastics / boot interior
Re do interior carpet to black
Plastics from a B4
Reconnect the Blitzt dual stage boost controller
Re-do all the speaker wiring as the two amps under the seat make a nice whine when stereo turned on
paint the 4pots gold / bronze or just black with white writing
Varex / or find what GRADG had originally and keep that
new pads / rotors all round
service.

Will do a proper photoshoot when its all nice and clean.

Very nice, ive always loved this car!

Now just install the V7 engine from the B4

[dks51r]

So so tempted to, but then it's a pita to sell the b4!

Well got all the rear plastics sorted and also picked up a Momo wheel tonight so very happy!

[dks51r]

Can any Gen3 noggin tell me what grill I have rev a-c or d?

[Shiv]

The last one by the looks of it.

[Morgan]

Graham changed the front end of the car from memory. Started life off as a Rev A-C but the front end is now a D-E

[dks51r]

Yes as it has bullet style lights like my b4, but I've not seen this grill on rev d's so that's why I though I'd ask!

[Morgan]

Stock Outback grille

[dks51r]

Oh ok, so outbacks are rev d fronts?

[Morgan]

They run along side the Liberty

Older style headlights = Rev A/B/C (1998-2001)

Bullet style headlights = Rev D/E (2001-2003)



This is pretty much how yours started out before the colour coding and front end upgrade -

Except for the drift spec front bar, EZ30 and big ass wheels
