The new car.

The Gti has sold, to a very nice gentleman who will probably hang around here quite a bit As many of you know, I have been wanting a Subaru for EVER!! I even remember talking to Derrick about getting an L for auto x long before this forum was in existence. Today I can proudly say, I finally have found that L. It's slow, it's old, but it's a GF, it's a 5 speed, awd, and it's a wonderful starting point.

Current mod list is short, 2.5rs front brakes and rear lsd. Much more to come.

damn dude, this looks super clean, and has lots of potential, any mechanical problems with her?

nope, got it on Tuesday night, been having loads of fun since

what motor is in it?

1.8, Subaru's unbreakable ball less bastard child.

I like it!

Thanks man! Now let's see your new car, I see no build thread

Noice!

2.2L is nice too for being unbreakable. sweet man! get some snows on that bish and hella 1000's

wish you woulda stuck it out with the golf though :/

The Golf was awesome, I had big plans for it too! But I'm glad I went with the Subaru

What hella light does alden have? Are his 1000

500s

Haha, yea the mk1 reminds me of when my uncle built his airplane. I was 8.... and he went for the first flight like 2 years ago haha. But yea, I really like the Subaru. I dare say even that my days of modifying Bmws are over.

Not this year, the all seasons suck but I can't justify spending the money just to get summer tires in a few months.

what tires do you have in mind for the summer?

Direzza star specs

so when is it getting an ej20 swap?

Wallace I was eye balling this thing SOOO hard. Lol. I couldn't do it cause of the color combo. I love it though, hope to see some great thing out of this log.

i dont think he will keep the bumper a different color for long

or you can just do a whole two tone paint job. might do that with the capri if i get an air dam haha.

well at least your uncle got it going! that's a fucking long time though.... maybe we'll live to see alden's dad put together the elan?

LOL, I hope so. Eventually Alden and I will just take that shit and finish it ourselves lol.

Update on the GF,
I threw in a new steering wheel (thanks alden) and a one off shifter I had made back in the day for my bmws. The interior looks much better, unfortunately though in the process of installing the shift knob I broke my center console so I will be ordering a new one soon.


Also yesterday Alden and I discovered that this so called LSD is actually a welded diff . It's not terrible, it is fun but parking is a PITA.

Some shitty pictures from work the other day

Still loving the phone cord on the radar. Gotta be watchin yo back playa! Lol! Btw sick drift after aldens yesterday! Gotta love a subi in the snow!
