I gotta new (to me) car

I'm gonna make this short cuz I'm on my hone and I have to get up early tomorrow for the montain run.

You all know I was selling my acura, well I wound up trading straight up for a '97 impreza L. It's automatic awd 2.2l with 162k on the clock. I plan to do a wrx swap into it. Already got an sti axleback, put it on tonight. And already have a tribeca front sway and wrx rear sway lined up. The car already had wrx seats in the front and an sti rear seat.

I will post pics in a few days. But for now, let me know if you guys have any spare wrx or sti parts laying around. I'd also like any black interior pieces you guys can find to fit it. And oh the prices need to be cheap or free because I an seriously strained for money and in debt up to my eyeballs. I am determined to see this project thru. Anyways let me know what you got.

Thanks in advance guys!!

gratz...pics when you get a chance

 

Congrats dude. You know where all my parts are.

 

Nice project car congrats!

 

Congrats! You get back into a Subaru and I get out, lol.

STi or ///M3 coming in 8 months!

 

is it the coupe of sedan? If it will be a while for your swap I will have the full 5sp conversion from mine. It was an auto once upon a time.

 

it's a sedan. And yes I will be over at your place helping you. Let me know when youre working on it and I'll come help.

Posting from vogel! Great turn out for the mountain run.

 

ok guys. the alpine CD player that came in the car is completely FUBAR'ed. My roomate and I are going on a road trip (back home) this weekend and we will die if we don't have any tunes. I'm looking for the cheapest (under $100) used cd player (preferably with an iPod capability) that you guys have to offer me.

let me know!!!!

 

Tell Chris to buy my car and keep it in the family, lol.

ROAD TRIPPPP!!!!

 

ha we are sitting at the exhaust shop getting the sti axle back buttoned up. Are you coming to the gsu game this weekend?

 

jake...you know where all of your OLD parts are lol...holler at me when you get in town...got a question about the subie. need some help running down a bump bump bump. congrats on the car though! i am sure that i have some parts that you need...and don't worry, i'll make them nice and expensive!!

 

I think I still have my stock 03 headunit. Not much but it still works.

$10

 

if it will fit then I'll take it.

And Jamey well see you Saturday!

 

Yeah, your welcome for my Witness Signing..

 

Dana bring that headunit over here tonight or tomorrow night after 9. I wanna see if I can make it work.

 

I'll see what I can do lol, thats quite a drive. When are you leaving?

 

early Friday morning.

Anyone care to chime in that might know for sure whether a wrx headunit will fit a 97 L???

 

ok guys i need to know what all i need to make wrx brakes fit on an L. my rear drums are shot and I dont see the sense in replacing them if i plan on upgrading them. might as well go ahead and do the brake swap now.

 

also i am looking for an STi or '06+ wrx driver's airbag.


lmk guys

 

FWIW I have a WRX 6 disc in my 98 RS.. it was plug and play. I dont think anything changed from 97-98. And, congrats on the new ride man.

 

^^thanks!!!

 

Let me know how the tribeca front sway works out - I've been considering one for mine, but I don't think it'll fit after my swap.

 

Yeah I was hoping to find someone who put a racing steering wheel in their car and didn't want their stocker. To be honest I'd be cool with just the cover and no bag.

And as far as the sway bar, it won't fit after your swap. Because frm what I've read you have to swap subframes. Which would eliminate the sway bar

 

pics!

 

would a 99 RS suspension be an upgrade at all?

 

^ probly but im going with coilovers

 

pics or you dont have the car yet.

 

I don't have a camera. At least one that works. Tons of people have already seen it. It's nothing special....

Yet!

 

bump looking for an STi or 06+ airbag or just the airbag cover.

anyone?

 

go get a NOPI steering wheel for $50 call it a day!

 

^whats the latest with you wrecked wrex?

 

Uhmm, I called her back to ask what the "buy back" is. I am guesstimating that it will be anywhere from $300-$1000. You can buy the car from me, but I would need the money by Monday or Tuesday so that I can clear my loan. I have to get a car my next weekend. hnoes:

 

he insurance payout wasn't enoughto pay off your loan? Let me know what it is. My bday is Tuesday so I may have some bday money to give you. Let me know regardless, I will make it work.

 

It was like $400 under...

 

just let me know

 

ok guys I'm raising money to buyback airmax's wrx (as well as taking donations from those who don't want to see it sold to a scrap yard). I am selling a near perfect sti rear seat as well as an apple iBook g4 notebook in another thread please help me (and Tereance) out, need this money asap!!!!

 

I saw your car up at on the border. It looks pretty clean. I can't wait to see it decked out.

 

thanks, ^^yeah sean said he was going to give you a ride the other night.

 

Yeah, he let me try out the koni's. I'm hoping for a christmas bonus. If I get one I might be able to swing it. I ordered a couple chassis braces to keep me busy in the mean time. Cowl stays, H brace, and a rear strut brace to shore up the back of my wagon.

 

Good call. Good to meet you the other night also.

 

guys I need two good stock wrx wheels with tires temporarily. I need them asap until I can get my some new tires myself. I'm not looking to buy just to borrow. Lmk what you got!

 

You know where my wheels are. You would have to buy some tires though.

 

yeah just need some already mounted ones asap. cuz all 4 wheels are fine. just need tires

 

anyone? I need some today!!!!!

 

you can use my spare...:keke:

 

ha, already have one spare. i was looking at them and i could really use 3 wheels if anyone has any. i'm shopping for tires with money i dont have right now
