Hi there everyone, I have just joined this forum and it is my first. I currently own a 2006 xt forester and it is a great ride. I have just lowered it with pedders standard drop suspension. I was wondering if anyone has any 19inch wheels for sale, exhaust system or anything else useful for me to make my ride more enjoyable. Thanks

Hey peoples, newbie to the subi owner world.
I just picked up a 1990 L Wagon not a neat looking wagon its ruff as (spray can paint job RHS and boot) but its a work and weekend toy.
Trying to get it to RWC condition but the more I dig the more elect probs I am finding

Its just about stock apart from 14" sunnies and a sports exhust the owner before me fitted.

I will be posting some questions soon on some electrical issues that I can't seem to fix with the blower for the cabin and the wipers etc etc already found some great info u guys post up + the unreal job the subie bros do on their resto's...

Hope to see some of you guys and girls around once its on the road

Cheers Mike

Hi all my name's Eden, i just found this forum and what a little ripper it is. I drive a my00 outback with a 2" lift kit, 25mm raised HD springs, subaX bash plate and frontbar, A/T rubber, uhf and oziexplorer for navigation. plenty of good reading here with lots of good info

Hi, my name is Chris. I currently own a MY02 WRX STI and a '90 GX wagon.

The GX currently is lowered on WRX rims and has been my bunky for the last 6 months.... but this weekend im installing a 3" lift, outback struts/springs and a set of Toyo open country's (just waiting on the lift kit too arrive).

Ripped the interior out as the floor pan had a bingle (behind the FR passenger seat) and patched this up last week. Few other bits to tidy up and she'll be set for a bit of fun. Heres some photos of the patch job and its current state

Current "lowered" state - no fun off road

Hole in floor pan

Patch job complete - just cut out around the hole, pop-reveted and sealed with Devcon (2 part epoxy plastic steel) to stop water getting in

You'll have lots of fun with these guys and they know their stuff when it comes to modified Subies

Can't wait to see that Liberty 'Lifted' and on some weekends on the dunes and 4WD tracks

Hi ,
My name is Shane. I've bought a RX Turbo Leonie rally car to do some rally experience drive days with.I don't know alot about these as i'm a soaked to the bone V8 Commodore man.I'd like to learn a bit about what bit's interchange from model to model.We plan to let the average punter drive this and a few other cars on forest roads that have very BIG trees next to them,so i'd like to know how to keep it reliable and easy to drive.
Cheers
Shane
