Drifting
They are Nokian WRs, very good in the snow, but can also be used all year round. I still have the oem tires on in the spring/summer, but when they are shot I will run the Nokians all year.
I really should clean the car up, but have been lazy.

Legacy Door speaker installation
For those that need it, I did a walkthrough on speaker installation and thought I would share it here. The threads have a lot of pics.

Thread Bump with Pics
I was out today, so here are two shots. Sorry about the size, but here it goes:
My car next to a red 2002 Blitzen model GT. The thing hanging down below the Blitzen bumper is an NHK mascot, Domo.
And the other of the ride.

after last nights ride
I'm getting a new turbo and some additional go-fast goodies in the next month or so. Still need to install my CF trunk spoiler and put on my summer tires.
She'll also be getting a new windshield soon.

I'm OK with it. If we can change the thread title to the Official Legacy / Imprezza thread.

Well, once you hop in and drive one, you think otherwise. I would love for more people to at least give them a shot.

Ended up attending the 11th annual West Coast Subaru Show in Stevenson, Wa. Had a good time and ended up winning best 4th Gen Legacy.

There must be some sort of irrational snobbery in me that I won't consider a Legacy because both Matt and Mako's cars look fantastic for totally different reasons.
Ignorance maybe? I dunno. Bias against my perception of Japanese design maybe.
Just weird. I love both those cars but part of me says, "I won't own one." Kind of sense does that make?

Bump, plus a tire pic
Here's more. Plus I have the Goodyear F1 A/S-C tires on. Before you scoff at an all season tire, they are W rated and I'll never drive that fast.
The wife's Odyssey and the Subie
Side shot of the F1's so you can see a bit of the tread. They are directional, and they seem to be OK. Only a touch noisy, and decent grip. I need to put about 1000 Km on them before I can give a full verdict.

^Dude post pics of your Mazda!
I was behind a white 3.0R yesterday at a light and we were stopped on a somewhat inclined hill. When he took away, it seemed like the rear of the car kind of went down and the nose raised quite a bit..is that a suspension setting or is it normal for that car?

I definitely want more power than what I have from the 3.0, but I don't think my car is slow by any means. Now, on the Legacy GT boards, a guy in Finland has a 3.6 in his and he puts down 425 HP. And it's a daily driver.

Nice Matt...I'm not a fan of white, but your wheels, rear diffuser, and trunk lip offset it just enough.
