ken, edit all your links if you can and remove the .orig.jpg from the end. even if someone is an imagestation member (like me) they cannot open those links.

Wasn't that the door jamb of the Legacy? It's in the next picture as well. Looks like the latching device to me as I don't see anything higher up on the door to keep it closed. If not, it could just be some reinforcment for side impacts.

Colin - I don't think Ken meant it WAS a B&O stereo, I think he was just comparing the LOOK of the center console to one of their stereos.

You can see that black thingy in front of the rear wheel well on all the subdriven photos as well. No idea what it could be though.

Rats. I missed the Edit window. I'll keep the orig.jpg off for future posts. Sorry about that.

Hey with all the wonderful Subie weather we've been having in much of the country, why doesn't somebody post some good shots of their Subies in action?

ateixeira · January 2004

Nice dog in that first pic. ;-)

No GM clones, please. If I wanted a TrailBlazer I'd go to the Chevy dealer and get $200,000 cash back.

hypov · January 2004

Nice new ride...
oh and the Boxer, with power to all fours too ;-)

-Dave

hondafriek · January 2004

I guess that will make the pain of parting with the legacy that much less.

Cheers Pat.

paisan · January 2004

Looks like first or second weekend in March for me to pickup the legacy. Getting excited about putting in some mods.

SS Lines
Front WRX Rotors/calipers
AGX struts
HR or Eibach Springs
WRX Seats
JVC MP3/AM/FM/CD Player
20% tint
Exhaust
WRX IC
Manual Boost Controller
Driving Lights
Rear sway bar

That's about it off the bat I'm sure there will be more though.

-mike

nygreg · January 2004

Some mods?? How about some nice fuzzy dice?

Greg

paisan · January 2004

Those are the "minor" mods that I'd do to it, pretty much any car I own/buy gets the struts, springs, brakes, ss lines sway bars, tint, head unit.

ateixeira · February 2004

Q: what type of AWD does it use? The VC from the Highlander, or the new system from the RX330?

I've seen some interior pics but they haven't shown how the seats fold. In fact it looked like they didn't at a glance.

I'd consider it for my next vehicle, even though I'm sure a well equipped AWD model will burst the $30k barrier easily.

Black with WRC hat. I was with a bunch of NASIOCers at the Chicago show.

<http://www.kr4d.com/~teknisa/Chicago%20Auto%20Show/Ibuki.jpg>

The 3 people to the left with the hat in the back were all in the group I was in. About 9 of us total I think. It was fun. Wish the new Leg had been there, but oh well. Sat in the OB XT. I think the seats totally suck up front, backs are nice. The fronts have no bolstering or anything, but heh, at least they leather is decent quality finally. Other than the seats, overall seems pretty good. Looking forward to seeing the new Legacys come in. Okay, enough ranting/raving for the picture thread.

locke2c · February 2004

awesome shot, typical of teknisa.

that's one ugly car tho.

~c

ateixeira · February 2004

Ibuki looks like a pill. No way would that ever replace the Miata in my driveway.

Legacy GT seats are unique, bet you'd like those better.

-juice

sube555lgt · February 2004

I hate that car too, it was the only one a couple a couple of us were in. From left it's Chad (Fliz), me, Franz (TheFranz), and Aaron's hat (CaddyDaddy) in the background. Also along CaddyDaddy brought a friend, Mick (Slack) and Marisa (Teknisa), as well as Dan (Scobaru) and his friend whose name escapes me at this moment. All NASIOCers. Decent group at least.

It was decent and sorta fun, the trip in and out was an adventure in itself.

Watch for more pics this spring on the back roads of SW Wisconsin in preparation and on the LIZARD RUN - SPRING 04.

outback_97 · March 2004

...brought about four feet of new snow to the mountains here in SLC. This winter's totals are approaching 500". On the way back from snowboarding I snapped this:

Beautiful!

I had to cut/past the URL but it was worth it.

nygreg · March 2004

must make for a wet spring.

Greg

toboggan · March 2004

Whine, wish we had those conditions around here. All we ski on is man made snow - whine. This is like having ice underneath several inches os groomed "snow." And it really can hurt if you take a bad spill (fallen twice on the right shoulder in one week).

But that OBW sure looks great.

MNSteve

outback_97 · March 2004

It's like a different world here now. Sunny and 50's... all the snow in the valley is gone, except for a little snirt in sheltered areas. Wet spring? We'd love that, we've had drought for about 5 years.

MNSteve: I moved here from MN 7 years ago, born and raised there, and the snow is most definitely different here. UT has powder, and lots of it. Very fun to board in... I've never gone anywhere else so I'm a bit spoiled. You should try it out here if you haven't before, you'd like it. You know the snow is good when it's up to your thighs and you almost need a snorkel to breathe as you glide down the mountain. Steep and deep = big grin! I'm not ready for spring yet!

utahsteve

toboggan · March 2004

We were out there about 15 years ago. Came out over Christmas break for the kids. It was great. But on the 4th day another skier (shouldn't have been on that run) blind sided me. I sat out the next few days with a badly wrenched knee. No skiing for 6 weeks. During my ski patrol duty days, I sat in the patrol room or ran the snowmobile. Needless to say I've gotten a bit "long in tooth" to ski the bumps. I'm now sticking to the groomed runs to save the knees.

But some day, before I quit skiing I'll try the champane powder again.

But the subie wears Blizzak WS-15's and a Thule ski pod right now. 3 more duty days and the area will close.

That car is in fantastic shape, it must be gut wrenching to part with it.

Cheers Pat.

paisan · March 2004

It will be here tomorrow evening! With any luck (not sure if the paperwork will be here) I'll have it registered and burning gas by Friday afternoon!!!!!

-mike

hondafriek · March 2004

like you are getting a beauty Mike, good luck with it, examples like that are few and far between.

Cheers Pat.

subearu · March 2004

that looks very good and will be isolated from the elements on it's journey to you.

Mike - try keeping all 4 wheels on the ground and wipe that smile of your face! ;-)

-Brian

jimmyp1 · March 2004

I have a bit of seller's remorse, but I made a decision a while back that Mike was the guy (if he still wanted it) because I want to see what he can do with it. It has a fresh oil change, too, Mike. Forgot about that.

Jim

paisan · March 2004

It will get good use and it'll get some AZP Tweaks

-mike

hypov · March 2004

Looks like those WRX wheels will stay on. They looked good on a already great looking car

Lets see, here by Thursday night, burning gas by Friday... so Sunday he'll be burning rubber with it at the AutoX.

-Dave

locke2c · March 2004

that's a pretty fast site at least at this time of the day, Jim.

skin13x · March 2004

Im looking to add a tow hitch to my legacy to hook up a bike rack to and i was wondering if the draw tite model #36217/36234 will work. It says it is for the legacy wagon and the outback so i was wanting to know if it would be compatable with the standard legacy sedan frame. Below is a link to view the above said hitch.

We begin the ceremony for the Lifetime Achievement Award for the OCD Club.

As OCD Club Founder I hereby present a Certificate for Lifetime Achievement to Jim in TX for the exemplary care of his Legacy Turbo, which remains in astounding condition despite its age.

<applause>

Bravo Jim.

paisan - you gotta take good care of her, she's spoiled!

skin: I have seen a Draw Tite on an Impreza, but never on a Legacy. Maybe ask in a busier thread?

"You like me, you REALLY do like me"

Thank you very much.

Jim

njswamplands · March 2004

looked like no room....

ateixeira · March 2004

jimmyp1atwork · March 2004

I actually didn't see how he did it. Either very carefully through the door or out a window, not sure. He did hug the right side a little. Apparently that had been quite a trip for those two guys. You can't tell in the video, but the trailer had jackknifed on snow covered roads in Wyoming. The rear end was all twisted up and the rear door was held in place with ratcheting straps. They got a flat in my cul-de-sac and didn't have a lug wrench. My socket set didn't have an adequate 1/2" extension, so we drove very slowly up to the local tire shop to use their air tools. My guess is they headed East at about 5:30 or 6:00 pm. Straight into rush hour traffic all the way through Houston from West to East. Come to think of it, they may STILL be in the greater Houston area!

Jim

Now I know what he was saying about quite a trip....

bigelm · March 2004

it's beautiful!

I most def need to drive that ;-)

paisan · March 2004

I can't wait til it gets registered tomorrow

-mike

bluesubie · March 2004

The shine is amazing!

-Dennis

jimmyp1atwork · March 2004

Have you driven it yet, Paisan? I'm at work, so don't email my regular address, reply here....I'm dying to know what your first impressions are!

Jim

hypov · March 2004

Don't think he has driven it yet.
He should be later this afternoon. I believe he is at the DMV or on his way, according to the clock.

-Dave

nygreg · March 2004

had the same question about getting out after driving it into the truck. "Enhanced daily driver" LOL.

G

paisan · March 2004

Can't drive it til monday.

You forgot to sign the Title, so I'll have to bring it back on Monday to the DMV to get it registered.

-mike

ateixeira · March 2004

You can fax a power of attorney the same day.

Happened when I bought the Miata, still got it done the same day.
