So a little history about me and my Subie. I statred out with a 93 legacy L of which I have few photos. At the time I couldnt believe the deal, a 5speed AWD Subaru Sedan, this was right before was moving to Tahoe in 2006. I did a few minor modifications and then some research and made the discovery that Legacys came factory equipped with a turbo. So the hunt began. I sold my first Legacy and got a 240sx but missed my Subie immediately. While looking almost every day on Craigslist for about 2 Years, I found my Baby. The offer was way too good to pass up $1500 and a plane ticket to L.A. and I could be driving back a 93 Legacy Turbo 5speed 25th Silver, Black interior. I flew to L.A on literally a wing and a prayer. I knew the moment I was picked up at the airport that this was gonna be a car that I never sold. I was in love. Since then the car has been a work in progress. I always wanna do more than my budget allows but its coming along.

Nice video! Loving the sound of the car and that road looks pretty fun. Twisty roads are my favorite.

91LegacyAWDturbo- Sweet Car i like the look of the pre face lift in white. plus it was cool to look through your Pics and see the progression. Thats Wicked, you break em loose on pavement again, ENVY.

Zagarus- Yeah Twisty roads and subarus go together like fish and water.

Just installed a front Lip from a Volvo... Not sure what year and make but it was real easy to install and it looks super nice on our cars. Anyone know how to post pics from a mac?

post the image on photo bucket and than post the img url here.

The new/old front lip Plus sweet new EDM Lights (Thanks ben!!!)


The Exhaust when i first got it all mounted up...


And a pic of my 240 for the hell of it




Thanks Eric!

yea this car deserves good lighting! great that you instaled them. their real power comes in the night.
make more pics with the city lights and beam pattern.
btw sweet sound from that exhaust!

I haven't got the city lights to work yet or the leveling feature. Just got them installed with the stock bulbs but am waiting to go pick up some new bulbs. The lighting difference is HUGE compared to what I had... Definitely recommended. Ill get some pics of the beam pattern and cut off when i get new bulbs

Just gave it a bath!!!!








What do you guys think??? Sorry for the crap quality these were from my phone...

I'm loving those wheels!

Yeah Im a big fan of the wheels, I just wish they weren't Rota. I questioned putting 17's on but I think they look nice...

From my buddys go-pro fish eye.

Do want. This makes me excited that my leggy will be fixed soon!

I love that idea for a lip! I might do the same, any more pictures of it? Great build so far.

You didn't happen to own an e30 at some point did you?

Those lips are pretty popular with e30 owners

Na never owned an e30 but always lusted for one...

GClark- Yeah ill snap some more pics of it today. Thanks i've got the group N engine mounts on there way.

So I just installed my Group N motor mounts... Nice improvement. A little tough at first to install. I think it took me a little less than 1.5 hours by myself in the ground with a floor jack and hand tools. Definitely the worst part is getting the rear bolts on the mounting plate on. then just a matter of coaxing the main bottom bolt in the slot. Id recommend this for sure if you car has got 175xxx plus and you have some jerking issues when you on/off throttle. Worth the 100 bucks just wish i would have done the trans mount at the same time.

Just got done adding these.

After a bath lookin clean...
