[gumbyy]

Welcome to the forum mate, clean lookin ride you got there.

[aekOne]

thanks mate

ps: i've updated the first post to include the full story of my cars evolution

[Subie Boy]

wow, what a beast....I am surprised I never came accross this thread before! Welcome and nice car you have there! So you go to A&B Motorsports too do you? Where do you live? I been going there for years as well....as I live in the Northern Beaches as well!

[Digital]

screw that i want the toy model lib!!

seriously, welcome and nice work and post!

anyone seen some replica liberty toy models anywhere?

end of post hijack!

[aekOne]

lol thanks guys

yeah mate get lots of stuff done down at A&B. They do all my major engine work like the conversion and rebuild. Louie has started working back there full time too which is great as he has huge knowledge of subarus and what you can and can't do with them...if you go past tomorrow you should see mine getting done as the engine is getting assembled and dropped back in the arvo

i might get Justin from Tweekit to do my next tune though as he used to work for Haltech so is probably one of the most qualified guys on the Northern Beaches to do it

For the smaller stuff i get the guys at Cromer Exhaust Centre to do it as it's about 300 meters from work which is handy.

I actually live in Summer Hill at the moment but have been working in Dee Why for 6 years so get the majority of my car stuff done down there. I'm in the market to buy a unit at present and am looking to move somewhere between Freshwater and Narrabeen so hopefully i'll be living down there soon. The drive everyday is killing me!! Where abouts are you on the Beaches?? I haven't really seen many Libs with work done on them down that way (except for another Gen 2 that looks almost the same as mine but not sure if it's had a conversion or not?)??

haha yeah mate that lib model came from Japan as well. One of the guys i work with is married to a Japanese bird so goes over there a few times a year and always brings me back something good. I've got that one and 4 smaller penny racers - a gen 1 RS, gen 2 GTB, Gen 3 GTB, Gen 4 GT I've seen them on ebay from time to time

cheers
