New to Liberty

Hi Everyone,
Recently took delivery of a 2007 GT Spec B - Tuned by STi after getting around in a 99 WRX for the past 7 or so years.
Despite a few initial problems I'm pretty happy with the upgrade - still kind of miss the WRX but don't miss the coilovers on the local crap-tastic roads. I must be getting old.

Anyway this is me:
Name: Adam
Ride: 2007 Liberty GT Spec B - Tuned by STi in black
Location: Qld, Ipswich
Mods: Not much at the moment - still pretty standard
Plans: nothing too dramatic - upgrade swaybars - inc links and heavy duty mounts (though I do currently have HyperREV vol170 Legacy book open in front of me. )
Occupation: Principal Environmental Officer - DEHP
Year of birth: '75
Interests: If it's nerdy I'm probably into it... messing around with my car - also hoping to get back into Kendo soon, also go to Japan about once a year which is pretty much the highlight of my year.
Previous Rides: 84 Corolla (0-100 measured with a calendar), 99 Nissan Pulsar, 99 WRX - not much in the way of mods - basic coilovers, swaybars, tower bars, ALK, replaced some bushes, braided brake lines

Welcome aboard. Coilovers these days aren't bad, especially the ones designed for road use with light track. The softest settings are very comfortable now and still allow you to throw the car around a bit without getting jarred on every pothole or bump.

You'll get used to the Liberty - it's still a fun car, and even myself had three Impreza's previously and now two Liberty's and I find it quite difficult to get away from the comfort of the Lib now (maybe I'm getting old too!).

Just need to get a Forester to complete the set!
