View Full Version : 01BE went back to stock
finse46 11-09-2005, 08:54 PM Hey all.
I finally made up my mind and pulled the trigger. I traded in my 01 GT for and 06 Spec B. Overall I am pretty happy with the new ride, sans the stereo. Since I traded the car in, I pulled off some of my aftermarket parts. PM me if you are interested in any of this:
Stromung Axel Back muffler (Stainless)
Cobb Cold Air Intake w/ IAT hole
Alpine CDA 9833 w/ XM Direct
JDM 17" GTB wheels
This pic shows the muffer & wheels

fibuz 11-09-2005, 09:24 PM Congrats on the purchase! Hope she treats you well! Post some pics of the new ride, y0!
have any prices on anything you've got for sale?
:banana:
finse46 11-09-2005, 10:06 PM Thanks Fibuz! I will definitly get some pictures of the new Legacy up soon.
Items would be price or best offer + shipping. for prices I am thinking:
Stromung Axel Back muffler (Stainless) - $100
Cobb Cold Air Intake w/ IAT hole - SOLD
Alpine CDA 9833 w/ XM Direct $350
JDM 17" GTB wheels - Undetermined
I bought the Stromung Axel back from PHATsuby two years ago. In that time, I managed to scrape the tip several times. The Sti springs I ran + Denver's streets made sure of it. The Cobb is new and in good condition, bought it this summer. Both the muffler and cai sound great. They sound even better together. :p The Alpine is about 1.5 years old. By far the greatest deck I have ever had. Awesome power & sound, mp3 & XM radio. The wheels are in good condition, with only minor defects. The wheels have a set of Kumhos that have just a little over one summer on them.
I will get some pictures taken asap.

MitchGT 11-09-2005, 10:09 PM Awesome upgrade! I was checking out a Spec B last night at the dealership. Gorgeous car.
Hey finse, what % tint is that?
finse46 11-09-2005, 10:15 PM MitchGT - That tint was 20%.
PHATsuby 11-09-2005, 11:38 PM I was gonna say, I know that exhaust:)
bump for Ryan, congrats on the new ride.

Damn, I guess my 02 wouldn't have the IAT either?
edit: I just checked and I don't :(
finse46 11-10-2005, 11:16 AM Thanks for all the positive replies guys. This car will definitely be fun to customize, I will be doing the easy stuff first; tint, clear bra, xm radio.. Perhaps by the summer I will be ready to start making performance modifications.
HF|[S]Devil - I live in North Denver and work up in Interlocken. I dont make it down south more then a couple times of year.
IDMO / HF|[S]Devil - The IAT sensor is pretty much just a hole in the CAI, I imagine you may be able to weld it shut, but what it would do the aesthetics....
subysouth - I will get some pics going this weekend. Its that time of year, dark outside when I leave for work, dark outside when I get home.
any idea if that muffler will fit on a 97??
finse46 11-10-2005, 01:30 PM any idea if that muffler will fit on a 97??
Sorry man, I have no idea. I was under the impression that the BE muffler was not interchangeable with the older models. I am willing to take mesurments it you want to pursue this further.
Cheers,
Ryan
bhall 11-10-2005, 02:15 PM Ryan I thought you fell off the face of the earth. I rode in your car about a year ago if you remember. I work right by Jeffco and never see you except one day about 3 weeks ago on 287.
Anyways if you need some help running parts down south for any local guys let me know. I work by you and live down south.
Pm me if you want to grab lunch some day.
PDAWG 11-10-2005, 02:38 PM What about spring and shocks? Got any of them lying around?
finse46 11-10-2005, 03:47 PM bhall - hey man. I def remember you. All the parts are in Denver at my crib, but I may take you up on the offer. Check your PM's
PDAWG - Springs were too much of a hassle to pull off the car. Basicly, I didnt think I could even recoup the cost of the time for the price of the springs.
MitchGT 11-10-2005, 04:08 PM finse - is that pic of your on the STi springs?
iamrazor 11-10-2005, 04:31 PM yes, what springs are they? would you consider an entire take off sale + stockers?
finse46 11-10-2005, 05:12 PM MitchGT - yep those were my Sti lowering springs.
iamrazor - I didnt have the time / money to have the Sti springs removed. I had to trade the car in with the springs still attached. Sorry man.
iamrazor 11-10-2005, 05:14 PM (real) STi springs? gawd. those must've been $texas!
and you traded them in without telling anyone here? shame on you.
I call for warning points :)
finse46 11-10-2005, 05:31 PM iamrazor - they were real STi springs. They actually did not cost as much as you may think. IIRC, they were $250-300 new. These springs had about 50-55K on them when I traded my car in. when I checked last year, the place I originally bought them was still selling them.
However I see your point. I wanted to pull the springs, as I knew some one (if not many) would want them. I didnt have time, and to pay some one to pull them would have cost at least $100. I wasnt sure if I would even recoup the cost of pulling them from the car.

janikphoto 11-10-2005, 06:46 PM i'd be all about that exhaust if it fit a wagon... I have the same year subie, but the sedan and wagon take different exhausts from what I understand...

What is the site? How was the ride?
finse46 11-10-2005, 07:12 PM What is the site? How was the ride?
I can't remember the site. Do a search on my posts, the information is somewhere in the Nasioc DB :) . The ride was significantly rougher then stock, or even the prodrive spings in my friends wrx. If you were lucky enough to ride in the back seat, a normal adult would have to duck when I hit bumps in the road. Additionally, the car was very low, making it more difficult to navigate in certian areas.
MitchGT 11-10-2005, 07:12 PM finse you should have never even mentioned STi springs to us :)
subysouth 11-10-2005, 07:17 PM i'd be all about that exhaust if it fit a wagon... I have the same year subie, but the sedan and wagon take different exhausts from what I understand...
I believe the only difference in the sedan and wagon exhausts is the length of the tailpipe or at least it is so on the BD/BGs. Subaru is now only selling the BD tail section for the BDs and BGs, so the wagon guys get short-sheeted. My BG came to me with a BD muffler section on it.
Judging by the length of the tailpipe in the pic, I'd say it would be ok for a wagon.

finse46 11-10-2005, 07:24 PM finse you should have never even mentioned STi springs to us
Ha! No kidding. I cant believe there is so much interest in the springs and that no one has pinged me on the wheels. IMHO the wheels made my car...
finse46 11-10-2005, 07:26 PM janikphoto - I can bust out the tape measure and give you the length and all that good stuff. Let me know.
flanders 11-10-2005, 08:08 PM The wheels do look good on that car. My wagon is the same color green. I have decided gold version 7 wheels would be awesome on my car. Someday...
