Just got my first car, need help.

Postby Mattalot » Wed Nov 09, 2016 9:48 pm

So i just got a 2006 Subaru Liberty Spec.B
And i have a few small things to fix but nothing major.
I am wondering what are some of the first things i should do to it, im not looking for power modifications yet as i plan down the road when i can have a turbo to do that then.
Also not looking to drop the height as i want to keep the drivability of it :P
So i was wondering what i should do to it first and where i get parts ect as im totally new to all this.

I was looking at the Mars rear lights with LED and they look cool, but does the LED amber upgrade basically make the rear indicator LED as well?
And how would i go about replacing the bottom driving lights with LED lights as 1 of them needs replacing any way.
And how do i get those halo rings for the main lights, as i have seen some before and there pretty cool.

Also is a cat back exhaust a good idea if im going turbo in a few years?
and if so how do i pick a exhaust that is not to loud as i want it to sound better then the stock one but i dont want to be that guy ;)

So yeah, happy to finally be a Subaru owner and cant wait to start this journey :D

Are you planning on replacing the car for one with a turbo? You keep mentioning about "going turbo".
To put a turbo on a 3RB you are looking at probably $8,000+ So basically more than the car is worth.

Angel eyes - ask hks180 viewtopic.php?f=42&t=13002

LED fog lights - hks180 viewtopic.php?f=42&t=6132

Some cheap upgrades are to do all the interior lights with LED's, get some under door lights etc. hks180 sells all that stuff.

I would recommend you get a tune from Matt (Kido_tuning) for $400, it cannot be detected. if you are on your P's and want to get more power, you might gain an extra 15-20% power with the tune. viewforum.php?f=63

Cool thanks for that info, I live in brisbane so would hks180 post?
Il send him a message and ask.

But yeah the 6 Cylinders only come NA and i would love a Turbo 6 ;)

And LED interior lights might be pretty good actually, i have noticed the lights in the car currently are a bit dark.
