That picture is heaven. When I die I want to go to that parking lot. Dirt with beautiful Legacys all around. Look at every car in the background. I am jealous! Sigh... Here's some more.

Upon first look I thought the previous one was an Impreza. Hot!

Holy crap, look at this:

Check out the extensive grounding mod. I swear if they had a Japan vs. America car show with the exact same cars... Japan would absolutely blow our cars away.

that "custom license plate holder" is angled downward so that the speed cameras in japan dont get the plate. :)

thanks LegacyT how hard you it be to get one of those bumpers?

Im alittle dissapionted with the rear end, too cluttered, but the rear wiper looks cool. And whats up with the 2 antennas on all the cars?

I don't think it should be too hard to get. But it most likely will cost quite abit-especially getting it shipped. New Zealand is a great place to look for these types of parts, since first gen Subarus are most abundant there-and their overseas spec :D. Try www.subspare.co.nz or www.aableparts.co.nz

That rear wiper is just super-cool... the stickers are okay, not my bag but okay, same with the antennas...

But oh, that muffler, how it pangs me to see a BC Legacy with that muffler :cry:

I may be blind....... Ok I am but.....

I know it has the fog lights where we have the signals on the 91 Turbo, and...... it has an extra lip on the bottom... BUT....

I think it looks like a USDM 91 Turbo front bumper.

Re-locate the front signals from the lower bumper, replace with fog lights, and you would get 99% of the look of that car.

I have seen that picture before, infact it was my desktop for about 6 months. I have a black 91 Turbo, and it looks a lot like my car.

Now - sideskirts and rear lip are missing.......

Any one care to comment?

They are for onboard Televisions - to receive the signal whilst drining around :shock:

The "fog lights"(turn signals) on the US turbo are smaller, and the hole in the middle looks a little bigger, other than that it looks basically the same...

Yeah, the fog lights are larger, and the center hole is bigger, and wider thena the us one. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but it also looks like the bumber may actually come further forward than ours do also, but only by a smidge. Ours recesses under the bumber a little more I think. But that could just be me.
