New guy on the block...
hey guys ive been on this forum for a while, but mostly in the honda section with my '91 hatch(insert flames here)... anyways the military recently moved me over here to Japan and my wife and i purchased this '97 Legacy RS twin turbo for a cool $2,500 with roughly 65k miles clocked
... anyways in the last few months ive installed:
Cusco Zero 2 coilovers and camber plates
Cusco H Brace
Cusco rear sway bar(22mm i believe)
new wheel bearing(last one took a crap)
5mm spacers all around
K&N drop in air filter
homemade MBC
Blitz boost gauge
unbolted axle back lol
Alpine head unit
Kenwood 6" fronts
Rockford Fosgate 6x9 rears
Razo 325 gram shift knob(recently stolen
)
Boss steering wheel adapter
ebay special steering wheel
Raybrig 6000k headlight and foglight bulbs
so far im pretty happy with the car, but i have a lot of future plans for it... in the next 6-8 months id like to get a fmic with 2.5-3" piping, reroute and consolidate some of the vaccume hoses, safc II, bov, fabricate a 3" turbo back or possibly a 4" downpipe to 3" catback setup(waiting on JCI inspection coming up in september first), purchase some new wheels(17x8 gold w/ polished lip wrapped in 215/40-17 Falken Azenis'), 20mm spacers, and lower the car about another inch, stiffer springs, slotted rotors, carbon metallic pads, recaros, kartboy short shifter, AEM wideband gauge with sensor, upgraded injectors, profec b, HID's, and id like to see if an STI intake manifold would fit, as well as an STI 6 speed transmission mated to a lightened flywheel and upgraded clutch, but we'll see... anyways, on to the good part- pictures!!

Very nice...and as far as owning a Honda? I own one every chance I get...but seriously, I think almost everyone here in SubyTech sub-forum owned one at some point or another (Former 97 EX Coupe 5MT owner myself)
Power steering.
Power steering.
thanks a lot for all the comments guys... ive only owned 2 cars before this one, and theyve both been 91 hatches... the first had a z6 swap, and the second had a boosted y8 swap... both were fun cars and i will always be an EF guy at heart, but i wanted something with awd and a little more refined than my last two cars... oh and yes that cap is for power steering
