Gotta make up for lost time! It must've seemed like an eternity having your car off the road.

Do you know how the DEFI cluster is to be wired up? I thought they were extremely difficult to wire for pre-revision Gen3's....

Yer it does feel like an eternity, I have no idea I just was given it by a mate and told good luck, apparently there are DIY guides on the net somewhere...

Forgot to mention the leggy bonnet and aftermarket garnish cover... I'm not going to recognise the car when its done

Nice Outback man, just like my JDM Lancaster (but with a few extra bits less the sunroof)... they're great cars and I had mine at 18 lol and my mates didn't mind it... I prefer my outbacks on stilts than lowered ;) but still looks nice... although yea the Gen 4 3.0L blow the Gen 3 3.0L out of the water IMO... My 08 leggy pulls like a mofo compared to my Lancaster.

got over the idea of wiring in a new cluster, the plugs are too hard to solder together, so smashed everything and moved on
