That's a serious list of mods. Welcome to the forums. I noticed the Legacy Stance badge you have on your grille. Nice one.
Cheers

@alexeiwoody...I have yet to run the quarter. I have done several driving courses and AutoX competitions. If i had sticky sport performance tires Id hold my own a little more rather than all-season Nittos I run currently. I have some BFG G-Forces waiting to be installed this upcoming summer.
One thing I should've mentioned is the dyno plot shown was before the engine build. So essentially that was with just a dp, tmic, full exhaust with the stock vf54 tuned with a Cobb accessport at 16.5psi on the stock block and internals. Hoping with the head minor headwork, cams, and minor larger bore to see a ~25hp gain and 20-50wtq increase. Looking at the EFR 7064 or 6758 for the future, we shall see, to push beyond the 400 mark.

@shav....the "L7" overlay was just made to simply go with my theme, and bring more orange to the front. Not for a stance logo I guess. Personally I prefer more of a form/functional look

Your car certainly stands out as being individual. I give credit where credit is due. Tastefully done.

Thanks a ton! It has taken awhile for some people to grow accustom to it. So at shows&events I dont say much unless someone approaches me.
Mainly wanted someone to say "hey! I know that car!"... Rather than "oh, that's like so and so's car, or I've seen one like that before"...trust me when I say the Wagon version has been my dream, but we'll never see those here sadly :(

I remember right after I purchased it and when to my first show it was the only 5thgen there. Couple reps even from Subaru of America came over and we chitchatted for a bit becuase even a few of them had yet to see one in person. Total production in the states between 10-12 is somewhere about 7,500 produced iirc.

Wow, that is rare. In Aus, they are very common here. So standing out is harder than it looks. There are a number of 5th gen members here who have really stepped up in the individual department and made their cars look amazing without going over board. Worth a look if you get the chance.

Oh I'm aware, and very envious of how many options are available to you guys in terms of support on the platform. Here its rather difficult to find tasteful things to add without looking cheap IMO.
Before dumping $$$$$ into this I highly considered importing a B4, stuck to my guns though and pushed forward with this.
My 02'BE Sedan was basically my attempt to replicate the appearance of what I wanted. The 3rdgen platform is still most most favorite that I've owned. However my 91ss that I daily still is the most raw and thrilling car to drive.

Kudos for doing something different and sticking with it :good:

Car looks the goods and the orange contrasts very well with the dark grey.
With the hopeful power, will be a handful to drive around too I'm sure haha!
mod -> tune -> drive -> get bored -> repeat...

That makes more sense :) Was wondering why the dyno plot didn't match the engine build. Go the bigger turbo out of the two :twisted:

Bloody good effort turning that 5th gen into a real looker.
And good to see one with a real transmission too, manuals over here are as rare as hens teeth.

Here the 5thgen GT was only offered in a 6spd manual. Which is lovely for me since I've never own a sport sedan in an auto. For its not so much about the horsepower, I just love the torque these cars produce (well Subaru in general). Even my 91 is a peppy Lil car and yet that's only a tiny vf11 with a 5spd, super fun to drive.
Thanks again fellas, plenty mkre to come just time.
here's the details for ratios.
2.5GT turbo- 6 speed manual: 1 3.454; 2 1.947; 3 1.296; 4 0.972; 5 0.782; 6 0.666; final 4.111

I should be flying out to Seattle,Washington to pick up my car within the next two weeks. The EFR&header combo is going on hold until later this year. Should still have a bit of increase with the cams&minor head work. Kick up from 16.5lbs to closet to 20 since the new block can handle the added boost. Hoping to gain 20-30whp and 25-40lbstq. We shall see. Just excited to get it back mostly.
