Re: 1986 Subaru Leone RX TURBO STi
Goodridge brake lines made up in all SS including the bolts
picked up a set of VOLK RAYS 16x8 ET42 5x100 Wheels so I can put the power down the some bigger rubber 225/45R16
had them sandblasted and they will be white

Re: 1986 Subaru Leone RX TURBO STi
found a original front lip in Japan so it looks like the sedan
was time to take care of the intercooler and like the sedan I got a nice BELL intercooler made up
the bumper plastic isn't bolted up that's why it sits like that or else it will sit straight, I have a brand new skin coming in

Re: 1986 Subaru Leone RX TURBO STi
got the turbo sorted out so the wastegate won't hit the wall
SS feed lines and fittings so never rust
got my PROvent 200 all set up so it can catch all the oil
also add the radiator cap on the radiator like the factory had it so its clean and works flawlessly
2 x 12" opal fans made in Italy, the driver side has a bigger HD motor then the slim passenger side

Re: 1986 Subaru Leone RX TURBO STi
these Subarus don't really have a proper toe adjustment so I came up with a heim joint with threads so I can adjust the Alignment much easier, and its all made out of SS so it will never rust
original subaru leone
Version 1 : hard to adjust live on the alignment rack.
Ver II perfection !
made this long time ago for the bushings in the arms now the wagon will have all pillow ball heim joint ride like the sedan

ordered up the aluminum tubes for the intercooler and radiator pipes
first step was get the radiator pipes made up, lower & up pipes for both sedan and wagon
more alignment goodnesses stuff in SS, radial rod fully adjustable for caster & centering the hub under the body of the car.

Stunning work as usual Nico! Wish I had the funds to do a build to this level of quality on Ruby Scoo!!
That rear toe adjustment looks neat. I’ll be keen to see how this device effects your camber as those three bolts are key to this setting. It’s not very well documented as to how to adjust it. I’ve seen an official note on this adjustment once on the USMB but haven’t seen it since. Wish I took the time to save it!
Keep up the good work!
Cheers
