I'll leave this here



Unless you wanna raise the LGT and go OBXT style, but with the lips and stuff.




Which would be cool.

Problem is that I want an Auto and something I can rallycross more often. I don't know how much more abuse my motor can take.

Don't know how to link directly from my phone so here's an imgur gallery.
First 2 pictures are some DAMD fenders that I got for a good price. And 3rd picture is a project that's been taking a lot of my time.

Maybe at a later date. Spending most of my time reading old manuals and forums to get more information on it and how to fix some of the issues I'm having

Thanks for sharing.  I may have missed it, but you can paint that stuff directly over paint?  They couldn't have given you a smaller can eh?  Why did you choose Eastwood over Por15?

I was ordering Eastwood body hammers so I thought I should try it. I'm not sure if you're supposed to put it directly over paint and it mentions just to wire brush loose rust off and put it on. The demonstration video I watched they just sprayed it on a rusty frame.

Solid video and I've never actually seen just the outback flare installed. Doesn't look too bad and it kind of reminds me of the Civic Type R rear flare! I'll be needing to do some rust repair to my Legacy as well and I've been debating installing a flare or repainting the entire rear quarter panels after the fix

Slow clap for starting the video without saying "Yo guiz, what's up"
The 3 is raw.  Lighter than more agile.  The 6 probably feels like a 747.  And by that contrast, my STI probably feels like the Hindenburg.  So GR's are like the International Space Station.

If you're looking to go super wide I have a set of flares made for the legacy made by this guy: https://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/bought-me-3-0r-lots-custom-goodies-flared-evo-x-219871.html

Haha yea I'm not looking to be a "youtuber" but when I uploaded the videos of working body work on Yvans old WRX I got a lot of questions so I just want to share a bit of knowledge on different ways of attacking body work on these cars.

I need to do the exact same fix.  Where'd you get your supplies from?  Mine's not as bad as yours though..

Thanks for making the video.

I don't have a grinder.. can I just use sandpaper and a drill with a wire wheel?

Probably could, the rust encapisilator only wanted loose metal to be taken off with a wire brush so one on a drill should do the trick.

Lifting a legacy? When I had my outback I always wanted it somewhere between the oem legacy and skyscraper outback height. That lift kit looks like it might put you into the sweet spot.

Why the replacement transmission?
