Hi everyone, I was born in New Zealand , and live in the U.S.A. I am a very big Subaru enthusiast and own three great Subarus including a 22B. I am searching for a legacy RSRA and want to be involved in this forum to share my projects and interest in Subarus and hopefully get some help from you guys with finding a car. I currently work building racing engines for vintage race cars and mainly Coworth DFV V8s and BD Twin Cam four cyl engines but have also worked on Ferrari F1 engines I spent almost
ten years in Indycar series as a Mechanic, so thats a few things about me. Here's A few pictures of our cars

Some of you may have seen these cars on the Nasioc forums "when OCD meets opportunity" projects but above are pictures of my cars and some of my project work. I was trained as an apprentice mechanic at Trevor Crowe Subaru in Christchurch and worked with some really talented mechanics there!

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD. Sorry to be crass but I just JIZZED EVERYWHERE. And I am a GIRL. :w00t:

Your GDB...one of my favourite cars. That beautiful BC, enough to make me HNNNNNNGH. And the 22B? EXCUSE ME WHILE I HAVE A HEART ATTACK.

The warmest of welcomes to you, that's gotta be one of the most epic driveways we've seen here. You really, really take pride in your babies from what you've posted here, and that's everything us fellow enthusiasts could ask to see. Cockles of heart warmed...warmed, I tell you!

Really hope you enjoy your stay here.

Thanks everyone for the comments, it's great to see the enthusiasm here, really more than I expected. I really am a huge Subaru fan more than anything else I work on and it all started in N.Z

I will post a few more pictures as I go, these are photos of the car parts as I went through them. I guess one of my favorites is the short throw shifter with the Deleon bushings we made at the shop, it's better than the 05sti. Also pictures above of my wife with our Subarus and me with our 05

I am blown away by the care you have put into these. A man after my own heart. That genuine gear must have cost a pretty penny for the BC!
