Just picked up my first Subaru, a 2004 Liberty GT Wagon 2.0L Turbo in Brilliant Silver and 120xxxkm.

Got some big plans for it in the future including:

- Darkest tint
- 18" alloys probs ROTA Gravels in Gun Metal or Matt Black
- Coilovers
- BOV (DONE)
- Tinted rear lights, using window tint
- Headlight and fog light HID's
- Turbo back exhaust with quad tips
- KiDO tune (coming soon)
- iPhone adaptor
- Roof racks (DONE)
- Front and rear sway bars
- Front spolier/splitter
- Mesh Grille (Done using plasti dip for now)

Heres a couple of photos after a wash and wax:

G'day mate, what are your big plans for this?
Looks like a nice straight lib to start with!

Welcome mate, car looks in really good condition nice work.

Mod list looks good and I'd also recommend:
- Upgrade swaybars and some poly bushes

welcome very tidy

Looks like mine when I first bought it. Welcome.

Haha I just looked through pretty much all 55 pages of our page, it's getting me excited for getting some mods started!

I have a couple of cans of caliper paint lying around so this weekend I'm gonna paint them and also use some Plastidip on the wheels until i get a new set. And getting some roof racks for the surfboard next week and tint done within the month can't wait!

Surfboards? Now I am Interested.

Whereabouts do you surf?

I'm pretty shit but anywhere really. A bit down at Sandy Point, the island mostly smith's and ycw I'll go (eat shit) wherever! Yourself?

I'm getting my own wetty and board from Zak's soon!

Ive had some good surf at Sandy point and the Island.

Im West coast though - Torquay area.

Yer mate been doing a fair bit of reading. It's about time
I get started on getting this as far away from stock as possible!

Defs have to let me know next cruise that's on or meet I need people's advice and to see mods in person.

I know you didn’t want a front lip initially but you have to, they look so good!
- definitely start with a rear sway bar from whiteline, and some HD mounts.
- HID’s are easy and look good
- coilovers before new rims, so you can fit what ever you want if you need a little camber etc.

Let the modding begin.

Yer I'll look into it but gonna be a struggle to get it out of my driveway as if when lowered.

Yer I will eventually do all the mounts and sway bars but I think first of all it needs some induction noise and a good note from a TBE

HID's are defs a quick and easy thing to get some soon, got some roof racks for the snowboards and surfboard which aren't too bad looking either.

Coilovers and some 18's probably at the same time, I really like the look/style your rolling with atm haha

All in good time! Gonna be lots of fun!

Got myself a turbosmart duel port BOV which I installed last week. I Also fitted a boost gauge in the cubby hole above the clock. While I was under the bonnet I decided to take out the intake resonator. I'm a bit unsure on what I am going to do now, the car definitely sounds more throaty and mechanical but I could hear the turbo spool up more with it on. So I'm thinking I will put it back in until I get myself a HKS panel filter or a a pod filter and full CAI setup.

Other than that the care is due for a service soon and have spend the last few days washing and buffing the entire car.

I'm going to get a Kido tune towards the end of the month and then go from there. Exciting times ahead!
