Shiro-ko, my new car.

tora · 08-29-2001, 08:46 PM

Well, the Black RS was officially sold today and I am now the owner of a brand new White Legacy Wagon. I am already sporting the 17's and am quite happy with it after a nice drive up to Whistler. This will be a fun long term project car. If anyone is selling any Legacy parts please let me know.

Congratulations.

Keiho · 08-29-2001, 09:28 PM

cool.

Penphoe · 08-29-2001, 10:31 PM

Looks like Tora is already starting to grow up. So I guess the girls in the Whistler chapter are now women?

LaterZ!
Darren!!

urbanwhitetrash · 08-29-2001, 10:51 PM

tora,

now you can fit 5 or 6 peeps in your car for a ride along at the next auto-X!

So are you going to start an L-club now?

bwhahahahahahahahahahaha

[b]

tora · 08-29-2001, 11:01 PM

L-club....good one. Does that mean "I" stands for Idiot? "L" for loser?
If anyone has tips or ideas for how I should proceed with my little project please let me know. For now I've got the 17's from my black car. I will get a nice smoked tint on 5 windows as well as a spoiler. I'm not sure if I should go Subie stock (big one) or aftermarket. After that I'm just going to do a few cheap but good mods, springs (rid the fender gap), short shift, and rear sway bar. Any ideas would be welcome. Also, need some new i-club stickers...

Prostho · 08-29-2001, 11:03 PM

Cool Tora! mm white Legacy L Wagon. a nice car indeed!!! Does your 17inch wheel rub at all in hard cornering or u are still babying it like you are suppose to in run in period?? hehehe..

Gimme a ride in that in autoX!!!! i'd love to see how it handles!

Check out the Legacy forums for some mod tips etc.

5 Zigen · 08-29-2001, 11:24 PM

congradulation man!

i have actually seen ur car up for sale in the afternoon!!! along w/ Terry's old gal....

at the beginning i was like....aren't u coming to pick up ur car yesterday but then i notice there is no plate on ur car....then i know what happened....

had fun w/ the new babe so far?

talk to steven and i think he can give u suggestion for OEM size rear sway bar or i dunno if the whiteline or Cusco products will fit or not....

i think me, Keiho and tmr were just there after u left....hehe...

so any news tmr?

Ken · 08-29-2001, 11:43 PM

You should try contacting the guy that works at SPO. He shows up to NW annual meets. I'm sure he knows about the mods on the SPO legacy wagon and sedan. I forget what his name is though... ask SubieGal or the Oregon/NW crew.

Congrats!

Orbiter · 08-29-2001, 11:52 PM

Please show us some pix =)

tora · 08-30-2001, 12:03 AM

I just took some non-digital lics this afteroon after washing it. If someone wants to loan me their scanner or take some digi-pics and post them no prob. But I am low tech. I need help.
I have not had any trouble with running. I was taking it easy...on the engine...on the way up but I took a few speedy corners. Not even close to rubbing.
I am now looking at my Legacy book from Japan for ideas.

5 Zigen · 08-30-2001, 12:09 AM

oh...gotta study, huh?

coz that's diff that ur black car....

Necromancer · 08-30-2001, 12:11 AM

Now you can transport ALL your honeys in style. We need to reupholster the back so when you fold the seats down, it's all plush red velvet with pillows. And a big bottle of Courvosier velcro'd to the C pillar!!!

T-REX · 08-30-2001, 01:31 AM

"White like me" hahahah...

Congrats dude!!! I love white legacys
Hope she treats you right!

You going to be at Whistler tommorow?
I may go up to finish breaking in the beast

If I do, what color I-club stickers you want? I think they are like $10 now and PM me your tele#, or where I can find you.

Later,

Terry

Ken · 08-30-2001, 01:36 AM

Why not call 'er Shiro-chan...

White looks like the stylin' color for this year...

death_blossom · 08-30-2001, 01:50 AM

tmr · 08-30-2001, 02:47 AM

5zigen: Unfortunately, I think that the rex would be a little out of my price range. 650 bills a month just on the loan is gonna be tight for me....... Although, I do have something else in mind

TMR

euroauto · 08-30-2001, 10:32 AM

Must have mods for the Sea to Sky are, front strut bar, rear 20mm Whiteline adjustable rear sway bar, and STI engine and tranny mounts. The rear spoiler helps keep water off the rear window also.

Maybe I'll see you next week. I'll be back in the middle of the week.

PS 17" Toyo TI-S Suck in the snow!!

I'm also a white wagon

Ashton · 08-30-2001, 03:21 PM

Dayam!!

Congrats Jamie!! So what class will that put you in for autoX? Hope you get done your break-in before the championships!

Do you have any trouble with those rims on the new body? I hear they have more room up there

Mirage · 08-30-2001, 03:38 PM

Wow Jamie, that was a fast buy!! Just Monday I saw your Black beast sitting on Specialty's lot.. and now it's not yours anymore.. Congrats on your new purchase! Hey, can I get a ride along too at the next AutoX??

Lookin' forward to checking out your new Whistler Cruiser.

Ken.

Prostho · 08-30-2001, 06:29 PM

FYI, Legacy 2.5 Runs in E/S.. but i guess it won't be in Stock class for long. haha.... wagon will look so damn cool in autoX!!! maybe take the whole iclub for ride in the back of that wagon!!!

5 Zigen · 08-30-2001, 06:29 PM

tmr: that's what i think....really couldn't afford $800 a month to my parents although i will get half from my bro financing to my Civic....hehe....

yet another 3 to 4 years loan stop me a bit too....also everything has to depends on my parents decision....

i don't think T1S is made for snow use anyways....hehe....good try though....my friend couldn't drive even snowing in Vancouver downtown....haha....and last year i saw someone's S14 got stuck and i know he has T1S too (he is my bro's friend) but i dunno him at all....

tora · 08-30-2001, 07:33 PM

T-REX, in Whistler today. Was working this morning. I'll PM you my number.
Ken, Shiroko has been chosen, Shiro chan is a possiblity. I may change it...I suppose it is more friendly sounding right. But I don't know my baby very well yet so I will keep it this way for now.
My car does not rub, no problems. I doubt I will break it in before the next auto-x. But I will go watch.
