Hey guys my names Mark, picked up my liberty back in January.
Havent seen alot of Gen 4 liberty's in this colour which is what got my attention in the first place.
After picking up the car on a saturday afternoon, on the monday morning some other road user decided the liberty would look better with the RHF of the car modified, So the car has had to go in to the panel beaters to get fixed.
Was completely stock when i picked it up and had a pretty low km for the age which was a bonus and also picked it up cheap.
The cars shifter was sloppy as all hell which was the first thing i had on my to do list, which i got sorted pretty quickly. The car also had a little bit of brake shudder which was bugging me every time i got in it & went for a drive, so picked up some DBA T2 slotted rotors cheap & fitted some bendix pads.

Got some new brakes today to go on the car once it comes back from the panel beaters, picked up the rear rotors really cheap due to someone buying the wrong rotors for his car.

Wow that colour is really nice, don't think i've ever seen one like that in person! especially a spec B. progress is looking awesome too dude, have you had it tuned at all yet? something i definitely recommend as the factory tune really doesn't utilise all that these engines have, noticed a big difference even with no mods. lovely car nonetheless!

Thanks, funny thing is when i was at chadestone yesterday had a 3.0r premium i think as it had 17's not the spec b 18's & was the same colour as mine which is the only other one i have seen in this colour, I have been thinking about a tune as i already have a tactrix cable from when i had the WRX.

So i forgot to pull my torque solution pitch mount off my WRX before i sold it to the new owner and finally managed to get my hands on another one. I really wanted to change the one in the liberty as when i changed it in the WRX it made a huge difference, it didnt feel as sloppy and could tell the gearbox wasn't moving anywhere near as much as with the stock pitch mount. When i pulled off the stock pitch mount i was not expecting to see that one of the bushes in it had actually split. I haven't had a chance to drive it since i replaced it (the joys of having a company car) but im hoping i notice the difference again as i did with the WRX.
