hey im mitch or sometimes known as tavna
I picked up a MY07 GT B spec on the 25th of august 2010 so im pretty new 2 owning a liberty.
I live in northern central victoria a city called shepparton, approx 2 hours from melb cbd
NO MODS just yet. Accept a set of custom plates. hopefully be n the car by thursday.

plans for the future of the car:
would be 2 remove all the small dents n marks on the car. (result of poor ownership n driving skill), dents removed, cut n polish.
window tint,
repair gutter rash on the B spec wheels (2 wheels damaged but only minor)
the rims r getting a respray in either glos black or charcoal grey
Replace front radius arm bushes with nolahane replacement, due 2 every day wear.
upgrade front n rear sway bars with whiteline sway bars mayb?
untill i have the cash just a simple spring swap 2 get a better stance.
Custom stainless steel cold air induction. fabricated by myself. 3" stainless tube.
might fiddle with the standard exhuast n try n get a nicer boxter rumble without opting for a full system.
Front lip Spoiler install n front Bar re-spray.

I am a 3rd yr. apprentice boiler maker (heavy metal fabrication)
born in june in 1990.

me n all my friends r into cars, drinking n water sports.
previously i owned a my05 VZ calais v6, black with black leather, sitting very close 2 the ground on chrome ALBA BOULEVARD 20's n a mild custom stereo upgrade. owned for 2 years. i also currently own a 1984 KE70 toyota corolla CS-X (rear wheel drive) that is in the process of a full re-build with a blown 3.8 ecotec n a manualised 4 speed auto.

Welcome mate!

These can be purchased for around $100 each from Subaru Docklands at the moment, not sure about the actual price as I haven't spoken to them, but a place up in Sydney is selling them for $125 each and I'm guessing the guys at Subaru Docklands will be selling them cheaper as they are trying to get rid of them as quickly as possible, you should just buy 2 of those and save yourself the trouble of getting the wheels repaired as it will probably end up the same $$$.

Also the PHAT man can help you out, he sells some decent Tein S-tech springs and coilovers, check his vendor section. Same goes with front lower arm bushes if you are after a big handling improvement.

Just beware not to read to much unless you want your wallet to become very thin...

Welcome. I have seen the SpecB rims painted a solid colour and they destroyed the look of the wheel completely. Personal opinion i guess but
