Double garage now filled with Subarus

Postby Wheaties » Tue Feb 16, 2016 10:02 pm

Hey,

The name is Wheaties. I like long walks on the beach. 38 years old. Social drinker. Non smoker. I have a small beer gut but when I suck it in, I look like I have an athletic build. Looking to meet like minded individuals to share good times. No weirdos.

Just got myself a 2005 Liberty GT Wagon. Bought it off a guy who just had his 4th child. He looked very tired.

The daily driver is a 2012 Forester XS. An automatic naturally aspirated Forester is the very definition of excitement but I needed more thrills. I had a Nissan S15 Silvia Spec R as a weekender but wanted a turbo AWD wagon - picked mine up for just over $8K. The previous owner put a new set of Potenzas and roadworthy on it. Problems? The rear cup holders are broken - "Overnight parts from Japan!"

I live in South East Melbourne. Bayside. Keen to do a cruise or two when they're on.

Here's the only iPhone pic I have of it. Day 1.

'05 GT wagons are the best :)

Thanks mate. Already got some valuable info on parts, head unit upgrades, good workshops and dyno tuning. I'll try to contribute as I work on the car.

Cheers.

Thanks mate. I was looking around for a few months. This one was on the market for about 2 hours before I dropped a deposit on it. Too good to pass up. Getting a few little things done to it. I'll enjoy it in stock form but will upgrade parts as they wear out.

P.S. Chunk is awesome.
