Hello,

I'm Brian from Missoula, MT. I just picked up my 4th Legacy after selling my beloved 98 Outback Limited with a fozzy strut lift. I'm trying to buy a house so I am liquidating all of my cars except for my SVX and the Legacy I just purchased. It's a nice car, runs great. It just needs some cosmetic tlc. I have only had time to fix a few little things on it. And I put a nice set of snowflakes on it too.





Here's a picture of my SVX too

Welcome to the BBS!

That's a beautiful SVX!

Thanks Josh!

I'm really stoked on my new leggo project. As you might notice from the picture some dumb ass replaced the Rh fender with one from a 90-91 model. That's why there's no turn signal. The Lh fender has also been replaced but it is the proper fender, it's just green. I have a new Rh fender on the way. If anybody is interested I'd sell the 90-91 fender cheap.

I bought the car for $325 it has 185K and its a 5sp with 4.10 gears. Replaced the Rf axle and ball joint and now all it needs is just cosmetic work.

nice looking rigs ya got there.

Beautiful SVX! I would drive one of those in an instant, especially if it had a manual swap of some sort. What wheels are those on it? At first I thought they looked a little odd, but they are growing on me every time I scroll back up and look again. The color scheme is my favorite as well.

It's amazing how much better that Legacy looks after a wash and some decent wheels. I am partial to a clean white car, but they never seem to stay clean for long.

They are off a 2011 Mazda CX-9

Yeah, those wheels look good on that car!

I swear every time I see a clean SVX like that it still makes me think I'm looking at the "future" of cars, and those wheels are perfect on it. Nice....

interior pics of both cars? cars look good, nice idea with the mazda wheels.

+1 for interior pics!!! That wraparound "alcantara" dash in the SVX....mmmmmmmmmmmm...

Thanks guys! I had a Magnaflow exhaust with quad tips installed on thursday. It looks and sounds awesome.

This is a picture of the Leggo the day I bought it. Interior is slightly cleaner now.

I installed my new fender, fender liner, and turn signal on Saturday. Looks allot better. I used 3 cheap rattle cans of gloss white and one can of clear. At this point I am not going for perfect just decent appearance. Now I need to paint the LH fender and remove all the pin striping. Also ordered a knock sensor. The wiring to the sensor needs to be repaired too (mice).

Good work, she's looking fine!

The svx is sick! Are they both turbo'd?

Nice work on the Leg. I have been researching SVXs for about a couple of weeks now. Really want one and have found some support for it. I think they are just really cool and something really different from everything else. very clean none the less.

I wish! I think it's easier to supercharge the SVX than to turbocharge it. A TT SVX would be crazy.

Thanks i've been having allot of fun working on it.
The SVX is the cat's ass and there's plenty of support out there for it. I always wanted one since I was 15. And almost 2 decades later I finally bought one and have been loving every minute of it. Go pick one up!

are you on big sky subaru? I'm kind of new over there and moved back to Missoula last year.

Yeah dude. I was at the parking garage photo shoot with you and at the Hastings meet earlier this year.

haha ok that's what I was thinking. didn't recognize the svx with those wheels on it though
