Hi from Perth

Postby RS_207 » Tue May 28, 2013 9:16 am

Hi there guys,

My names Joe and to be honest I've been on the forum for some time and neglected an intro, so here I go.

Well I own a G1S2 BF Liberty station wagon, some members here may have seen this cruising around. Purchased it almost 3 years ago from a uni student, the car was fairly illegal and somewhat unreliable.

She came with:
Full Import RS dash (including rare digital climate control),
Leather B4 drivers and passenger seats,
Nardi wheel,
Apexi timer, afc/boost controller, boost gauge,
3 inch TBE with a nice dump pipe muffler,
More leaks than the Gillard government.

Since owning it:
Replaced tired and leaky RS motor with a V2 STi RA frontcut,
I've returned the ridiculously low suspension to legal King springs and new shocks,
Replaced that setup with Tein SS coilovers,
Fitted Brembo front calipers and rotors (GD STi),
Fitted 18x8 white rims to clear brakes,
Replaced heat shields and repaired leaking ps,
Stripped illegal window tint,
Fitted some Pioneer ICE,
Phillips HID kit.

Future plans included:
V3 STi RA ECU (sitting at home),
STi 440cc injectors (sitting at home),
VF34 turbo upgrade,
Stealth FMIC setup,
Straight cut gearset,
Decent tune to boot.

Overall she's a great car, although not as new as the majority of members rides on here. I'm also a member of PWRX, RS Liberty Club and Rexnet. Keen to participate in any WA events and get to meet some of the members!

Cheers
