heh.. maybe because its a cheap run-a-round car due high petrol prices (So its Thursday/Friday & Saturday car!) ;)

Is that Liberty an STI? I assume it must be from the sticker on the canon exhaust tip?

also seen a Hot orange lifted Liberty up around Bribie Island,
That would have been mine. I did see two Foresters cruising along there together one day that I think may have been you.

cheers for the warm welcome guys.

yes the sherpa was supposed to be my run-a-round, but having work 60kms up the highway isnt best suited to the sherpa's 4speed, it was chewing just as much fuel as the forester was. but now the little engine has let me down, so now im not sure if im to dabble with a different engine conversion.. or sell it off

no the Liberty isnt an STI, altho it has an STI computer and tuned by STI lol and im slowliy adding little bits to it. going for comfort more than the "Look at me look at me stance"
