Hey,

Figured this is a good place to start..
just bought myself a new daily in the form of a 94 gen 1 liberty.. povo model dx.. fwd ej22..
while im new to the forum and subaru ownership in not new to modified cars..

Some of my previous cars:
1990 toyota supra manual
mods: built 3lt, trust td06, 3" straight thru exhaust, FMIC, safc.. ~360rwhp @ 18psi

197? toyota t18
mods: 4-2-1 headers, straight thru 2.5" exhaust, welded diff, s13 front suspension, ma61 rear suspension, gutted interior etc.. verly little rwhp..

1984 toyota soarer manual
mods: 2lt turbo conversion, single turbo converison, NA cams, cam gears, SAFC, 440cc injectors, custom single plate, welded diff, s13 front suspension, ma61 rear suspension, straight thru 3" exhaust... 280rwhp @ 16psi

1994 audi 80
mods: custom lowered springs front and rear (very stiff), custom struts all round, stereo gear etc... (daily for a while)

1990 toyota celsior
4lt v8, leather, electrics... basically a massive glorified leather couch..

so now onto my current cars..
1988 toyota soarer.. (BodgePro drift z20)
mods: 1jzgte with custom arias pistons, custom spool rods, HKS 264" cams, OS Giken adjustable cam gears, 550cc injectors, titanium valve springs and retainers, minor supporting head work. modified garett gt35r with .63 rear housing on custom exhaust manifold, tial 44mm external gate, bosch 044 main pump, jza70 feed pump, surge tank, larger volume fuel lines, microtech ltx12s, eboost2, 5 speed r154 manual with custom single plate, HSD coilovers all round 16kg front 14kg rear, whiteline swaybars front and rear, gutted interior, full rollcage (bolt in for now), welded 3.9 diff, straight thru 3.5" to 2x2.5" to 2x4" exhaust (no mufflers no cats)..
painted inhouse by BodgePro in custom blue..
should comfortably make 450rwhp with the small .63 rear housing..





So, now to the liberty..
i initially looked at some RS's as i have always loved the early shape.. unfortunately with a wedding, mortgage and drift car to pay for.. i couldnt justify spending a lot..
i basically said i would spend less than i sold my other daily for..

this car came up..




with some minor work already done: WRX brakes, header back exhaust, aftermarket springs, full RS bodykit (sans hood) it seemed like a nice sensible option for a daily..
the downsides are that it is FWD and NA.. but it will do for now..

plans are to neaten up the body a little and just enjoy a reasonably well handling nice looking daily..although i would like to get the car handling a little nicer.. so maybe some swaybars front and rear will have to be sourced..

the most urgent thing it needs though is some better seats.. the factory liberty seats have next to no lateral support.. i have a spare sparco bucket currently being used as a passanger seat in my soarer.. so i may have to remove that and use it... or look into getting some WRX seats or something.. still undecided..

anyway, that will do for now..

i have to emphasize that my goal is not to turn this into some form of RS faker..
i just want a nice daily which is fun to drive and decent on fuel.. which is something given my last daily did 450k's to a 75l tank.. and my drift car basically needs its own servo..

anyway, i look forward to learning some new things and getting some ideas on here... forgive me for my lack of subaru knowledge.. ill do my best to learn quick..

C&C as well as advice is appreciated..

cheers
