Since moving back to Japan I've picked up a BP5F (MY09) GT Spec B Legacy. There weren't too many around when I was looking that weren't either over-priced (Gen 4 is still popular due to the size and ugliness increase of the Gen V), or flogged to death with dodgy mods. I finally found one, a country car with 72k ks on the clock and unmolested except for a few STi dress-up bits and STi quad mufflers.
It came with a 2 year warranty and Subaru said they'd have to put the stock mufflers back on which bummed me a bit. When I went to pick it up they apologised for having to change the mufflers back to stock but stock was a set of Genome cannons so no biggie. He then said the spares were in the back. Which they were along with a facia, and a set of sway bars.
Currently has;
STi Quads
Full LED interior lighting
3M Carbon wrapped interior parts
Whiteline caster/ALK kit
HkS Hipermax IV GT SPEC A coilovers
Weds Sport SA10R 18x7.5 +45 wheels
215/45-18 Yokohama S Drives
Cusco strut brace
When I first bought it. Drove to Hakone to give it a shakedown.
Didn't like the chrome edging round the grill, like most don't, so out came the Plastidip.
The previous owner had added STi sill/scratch panels and the rear chrome one was looking a bit sad so it got plastidipped as well.
In an attempt to blend the rear a little better I checked up the rear chrome panel as well to match the STi part.
Waist Spoiler and the lower panel were done before I got the car but the lower panel is a bit rough so I'll do it again in plastidip to tie it all together.
Wasn't a big fan of how the 2xDin facia was matt black and the rest gloss black so gave it all the 3M treatment before installing the Carrozerria Nav/head until I pulled out of my Spec C.
Wheels will get changed once I decide what I want to do. Trying to think of something different. Mark (Cruisn) has given me the "find-something-and-paint-it-bug" so I've been keeping an eye on Yahoo Auctions for something suitable. Ironically, Subaru's warranty will let me change the rims as long as the tyres remain the same size so 18x8s wrapped in 215/45s it'll be until the warranty expires.
Once that does happen mods won't be crazy as it is an auto and the Mrs drives it if I want a beer, absolute ZERO here. Mods will be mainly focused on increasing drivability so looking at exhaust flow to and from the turbo (VF45), brakes, most likely Brembos as they are cheap, and a bit of bracing here and there. I'm trying to sell the Spec C at the moment but if that doesn't go then that will become a track car and so satisfy the mod bug.
