Hi, I'm new to the site but not new to Subaru. I picked up this 1994 Legacy GT and restored it a bit to make it a suitable daily driver. One of my favorite Subarus so far.

When I'm not driving the LGT, I'm working on this.

I have a thing for the nineties.

Loving this site by the way. Nice collection of classic Subarus here 8)

Welcome. Your wagon is really straight. Is it dark blue or black? Not too many black ones around.

Thanks - It cleaned up really well after we replaced the fenders and rear quarter panels. The color is dark blue. I think it's called Deep Sapphire, and I believe the USDM 94 GT (BF model with the raised roof) was only available in this blue and a dark red.

Is it lowered in the front?

Yes, a little too low in the front. The previous owner had installed adjustable coil over suspension and when I purchased the car it was tucking all four tires, and the fenders and quarters were rusted out from being rolled incorrectly. I had never owned coil overs before, so I adjusted it the best I could back to factory ride height. The front is still too low, and the suspension is too stiff, so I'll be swapping it all out for a set of Prodrive/KYB take offs from one of my other cars.

The Legacy also has black 05 WRX seats, a Cusco WRC shift knob, a 94 Momo Corse wheel with an NRG quick release. I have a Liberty RS spoiler I found in New Zealand, as well as the turbo hood and grille to install. I'm putting together a homebrewed 5psi turbo setup on a spare EJ22 motor.. but that's sort of a distant future goal, as most of my time is spent working on the SVX, and my Impreza:

...which is getting a much needed suspension refresh, new Prodrive wheels, and a Spec C roof vent that's been collecting dust in my garage for too long.

Just finished up my 500 dollar flip. 1991 SS will likely be for sale soon. Has an 03 ej20 short block with stock heads and a 4.11 4eat. Shifts really smooth. Not a single leak on her. Pictures are kinda blurry because there's oil or coolant over my phones camera lens.

Yea it's fairly clean I got it for pretty much the same price as it would be to fix my Trans so I will swap everything to my old car and I already have a buddy that wants to buy the shell when I'm done so I think it was a smart choice. I'm still trying to convince the wife it was lol

I think those are the European headlights that come up for sale on the Board for about $300 for the pair.
