Sold my green 98 Legacy wagon and the 04 WRX sedan in favor of this.

heated leather seats/mirrors/windshield
in-glass antenna
fog lights
dual sunroofs
autodimming mirror w/compass
sideskirts
woodgrain accented interior
rear lsd
6cd with 9 speaker system

Day 1 from used dealership:

I flew from Portland to Boise to get it and drive it back. Took a few neat shots along the way

Car made the trip great. It had a noisy wheel bearing so I did that and now its my DD.

[elislider]

[elislider]

JDM rear seats are installed

 

[subiwag]

this thing is baller!!

 

[elislider]

better picture of the rear seats installed. they are literally like new condition and i was really happy to find them from another RS25 member

and got the jdm gold door sills installed, at least the fronts. the rears weren't sticking so i gave up, and now i have to buy more 3M sticky tape

 

[OrganicObs]

I want to see this with the wheels and coils on!!

 

[Ted]

Won't those STI rims be 5x114.3? Or are you swapping it? :naughty:

Edit: I have to start reading the posts and stop drooling over the pictures lol.

 

[BackWoodsBob]

you need more liters.

 

[JdmGary]

those Sills are nice!

 

[elislider]

not doing an engine swap quite yet. doing the drivetrain swap first, might also do a 6spd at the same time. depends on my budget. engine swap comes next year

 

[elislider]

few updates.

installed a touchscreen nav deck

got these but dont have rails yet so i havent installed them

winter wheels for the snow

at Mt Bachelor

hit 170k in it

 

[DoubleYou]

So where's this conversion...

 

[elislider]

i have almost every single part i need. its too cold outside here to work on it though

 

[GeronimoRS]

You going turbo? I'm from Molalla originally (not proud of hick town) but I gotta say I am loving 60 degrees and sunny in January

 

[elislider]

Yeah eventually I will build a motor for it

 

[Fisher]

Almost got one of these, but the owner sold it before I was able to get up there. Good looking Lego, keep it up!

 

[elislider]

Car is dirty as hell from the winter, but I got the JDM tails and new grill installed
