Don't watch MCM unless you want your car to be worse than it currently is, those guys have no clue...

Is that a Jap plate on the windscreen? Fresh import?

[BuuBox]

MCM lost me when they started spruiking Edward Lees.

[*LOACH*]

Speaking of the number plate have you got a better pic of it?

this.

and where can we find jap plates guys and girls?

[macdog]

sorry gents,

here is the actual car...

AUS delivered car...

Needs a fair bit of work.

car has done 330,000kms.

I need help to find the following.

New gear knob

New steering wheel

New front seats, will a later model liberty seats fit?

[*LOACH*]

Looks good, it's a turbo wagon so you gotta love that. I was just interested in seeing the Japanese plates behind the windsceen because it looks like my area of Tokyo but they are usually Shinagawa plated as I don't think there is a rego place closer than that. It was hard to make out from the picture though hence the request for a better picture.

Engine runs really sweet.

Probably going to need a new clutch, needs new brakes as well.

In regards to the steering wheel, any aftermarket wheel will fit on as it's got a factory momo boss kit, in regards to the seats, my brother has an RS Legacy (yes a Legacy, they're only called Liberty's here) sedan, and has version 6 WRX seats, the rails from your factory seats bolt on to the newer seats with no modification. Is the car a manual? Just get any aftermarket knob off eBay?

Thank you!!!

Yes, car is a 5 speed manual!

RS legacy... fairly rare right? I'll look for some of those seats.

Yeah they're rare as hens teeth in Aus, only seen one here, my brother lives in NZ, and they were widely imported over there..

In regards to those seats, not positive that they would bolt directly in, however the rails are easily removed and swapped.. Funnily enough I parted out an 89 GT wagon a few years ago, had full options and electric leather seats, only got $100 for the seats! ( in NZ tho )

Hope that helps

Great cars, just be careful with the "glass" gearbox. Has a rep for being very fragile and unable to handle the all wheel drive grip with some lead footed driving (as MCM Marty found out)

Update on the car...

Getting new brakes, new clutch and have just found a steering wheel to suit.

Overall the car has been really well maintained in terms of engine and so on, the seller sent me all the service history.

Outside the car is not so good, has a mark on every panel pretty much, I'm going to paint the roof one of the following colors, black, white or silver.
What do you guys reckon?

A good cut and polish will fix most of the scratches.

I just need to find out whether the seats on ebay will fit my car.
Seats are from a 1998 Subaru Liberty... any help appreciated.

Cheers
