Your Subaru's Past and Present
 
As the title says, just subaru's, from the humble Justy to the large Legacy, post them up :D

My first one, picked her up with 7 miles on the clock :D nicely modified, defi's, PD7's in antracite, door protectors, a/c, PPP, uprated brembo brakes with AP discs (308mm) and mintex 1144 pads, doesnt seem to be with us any longer as cant find the info on the dvla website :cry: she was a lovely low mileage example, less than 44k when she sold 2 years back.

My First Spec C and one of the first twin scroll's in the country, great car and still about with low(ish) miles on (34k at the last count earlier this year)
http://i632.photobucket.com/albums/u...B2004-0059.jpg

My Version 5 Type R "project", still only has 31k on the clock :lol1:

My one and only scoob, bought Mar 2006 as a replacements for a mildly tuned V6 cavalier, never realised just how addictive turbos could be. Currently just over 50k on the clock and is a work horse as well as a toy and is currently being prepped for a respray and a bit of a general tidy up.

I'll keep it for another year or 2, finish what I want to do and then move on, probably to an Audi RS4:Whatever_

rb5 286 27 December 2010 09:12 AM

my first Subaru, the RB5 (#286) non-PPP , bought as 2nd owner with 15k on the clock, which ended up with a spec list too long to mention lol
http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...286/rb5sig.jpg


My 2nd was the Crystal Grey Hawkeye, brand new with PPP, unfortunately a bus caused its early demise at around 6k miles on the clock
http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...6/P1000176.jpg



Insurance paid out on an Urban Grey Hawkeye which I heavily spec'd up with Subaru goodies
http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...7/IMG_0138.jpg


My 4th and current, which I totally love and is easily the best one, the STi PPP Hatch

My first was a Wagon which i purchased about a year and a half ago for £1300, wasn't in the tidiest of conditions but i was just looking for something so i could see what the fuss was about and it was fairly easy to get the baby stuff in with shopping aswell.

http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...vjJvBKZGNi.jpg

In July after selling my house i decided to upgrade and try and find myself a bugeye, took a while as i was looking for something specific and eventualy i bought an 01 bug which had the modifications i was looking for, this is my current car but it doesn't get used that often as i have a corsa for the daily commute.

arumdevil 27 December 2010 10:49 AM

nice. Well I started with an old '92 legacy turbo wagon. had it for about 6 months or so until it had a disagreement with a hedge. Got it for £280 on ebay.

http://arumdevil.com/subaru/legacy/side.jpg

then went back to Saab for a bit while I waited for a replacement for the legacy. Eventually found a lovely GT-B Limited twin turbo for bargain money, although the milage was high and there was some rust on the rear arches:

http://arumdevil.com/subaru/legacy/GTB/dmr_01.jpg

After some engine trouble following a Head Gasket replacement, I gave up on it and replaced it with a standard GT-B, but that too blew it's head gaskets. The engine from the LTD is now in this one:

Gone but not forgotten :cry: I really wish I'd kept her now, what a machine she was. :notworthy

It's only a pity the new owner didn't respect her and binned her at an accident at 'only' 30mph :cuckoo: never mind at least I know he lost out heavily on the insurance payout. ;)

stevie1982 27 December 2010 12:13 PM

Right 1st one a uk turbo ppp
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f6...Picture001.jpg

2nd a uk wrx few mods and lasted about 3 before his
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f6...r/DSC00060.jpg

3rd was a 96 wrx well modded bought off lenn @'S4U
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f6...82/car/ad1.jpg

4th took a leap of faith as thought life was to short as my dad had been diagnosed with cancer so got my dream car, spent £1000's on it Inc 6pot ap's, 6 speed box etc
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f6...r/DSC00030.jpg
Got into loads of debt as life was to short and had to sell in the end

5th was to ease the pain, well modded but another uk car running 340bhp
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f6...982/car/16.jpg

Sold it as missed the p1 and went looking for another, this was a year later, to my suppress the guy i sold it to was selling my old one, with my love for it and the time i bought it during i snapped it up with 4k on the clock but at £4k less then I sold it for so for the 2nd time
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f6...1982/p1/20.jpg

After another year decided i wanted to tick one more box and own another dream car which was this a mk1 type 25
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f67/stevie1982/d.jpg

Then yet another tick list a 450bhp all singing all dancing classic and came across this, bob Rawle's sti5 snapped his arm off to buy it running just shy of 500bhp and 10's of thousands of pounds spent on it
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f6...5/100_0281.jpg

And an end of a great run as need to bank money and get a house so it all came Ronan end in one of these
http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f6...82/photo24.jpg

Not the same but it will do for now as im sorting out a new house
In the new year so hope to get back on board in spring

Sorry for not the best pictures more can be added if need but doing this off my iPhone

Hope you like

MovingShadow 27 December 2010 01:21 PM

My first one, bought with my head and not my heart. At that age STI insurance premiums really wasn't worth it. So I bought a Turbo 2000, stole a lot of the good aftermarket parts and put it back to standard. I actually really love it as a standard car and for the money I let it go for Iwish I had just stored it and thrown some money at it a few years down the line.

http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...impreza012.jpg
http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2.../Scooby073.jpg

It's replacement... Had a nice little spec, was running 280bhp with some great little suspension upgrades. Blew the gearbox and engine within a month of each other, so fitted a low mileage engine and 'box. Actually still own this although it's mid way through being broken.

http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...3/giles017.jpg
http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...3/giles011.jpg
http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a2...s/DSCF2864.jpg

And last but not least the new one. I wanted a DBM Classic (or anything other than silver) but i saw the spec of this and was sold. APS fmic and wing mounted ik, Link ecu, EXE-TC suspension, AP 4 pots and OZ P1 wheels to name a few. Just need to sort a few niggles out, might get my old engine and gearbox fitted.

Ste RB5138 27 December 2010 05:09 PM

My only Subaru, RB5 #138 bought Mar 2007 with 65k on the clock, sold it in October this year with 97k as the daily commute doing too many miles, along with the VPower cost going up this year.

Off came the 18's,tints and the big rear spoiler another couple of quid spent and it looked like this.
