Nice!
When does the warranty run out, can't wait for engine mods.

What warranty does it have on it... not new car surely? Let me know if this is a stupid question haha

That's kinda handy and very generous of Brett letting his car be the lab rat...

Maybe that should be the name of your car brett - Lab Rat - Should we start a poll?

Cheers

Given that we'll be hearing about any new mods from the horses mouth (figuratively speaking), I think Test Mule or just plain Mule would also be appropriate.

****, $2000+ for a bullbar from Subaxtreme. Spose I gotta pay it as Custom alloy don't appear to do one.

Yeah, they're not cheap.

Which style are you thinking of getting?

Notice the vent's under the number plates are different?

Given that you plan to supercharge the EJ25, I'd have thought that maximising airflow to the radiator would be a consideration for you.

Have been away for a week on a cruise for my hunnymoon and look what happens.
Very very nice Brett, thats what I having eyeing off as my next car in a year or two.
Love that blue, think its about the best of whats out there.
Cant wait to see how it turns out.
Will it be at the BYB BBQ ???

The pic of the bottom one is the style I want. Need some thing to hang some HID spotties from. Also protect the corners a bit better when in the scrub.

Brett how mant airbags you got in the outback?

Outback bloke · Post by **Outback bloke** » Mon Nov 05, 2007 6:03 am

Not sure but I think two. I seem to remember seeing some thing on the passengers side dash.

We took it for its' first offroad trip yesterday. Went for a cruise up around some fishing holes I knew of around Coochin. I think this might end up being a pretty good offroader.

INEEDABEER · Post by **INEEDABEER** » Mon Nov 05, 2007 3:21 pm

I'm sure the late Outback's have side or curtain airbags as well.

Chris_Rogers · Post by **Chris_Rogers** » Mon Nov 05, 2007 6:02 pm

leather bound ones did - the one he has shouldn't. it will say airbag on the visor if it does. quickest way is to pull the A pillar trim.

I've been wanting to see one of these lifted since they were released - can't wait!

Pics please!!!!!!!!!!

I have HID kits in stock now Brett if you want to see if they will fit your Hella spotties

Outback bloke · Post by **Outback bloke** » Tue Nov 06, 2007 5:10 pm

I think I am up for a new set of spotties for this car. I advertised the old one with the Hellas on it. Wouldn't mind seeing if they fit though as I may go for them again next time if I don't buy the ones like yours.

2 weeks until the new wheels arrive. So, new wheels, tyres and lift the weekend before the DI trip.
