Bo, I haven't picked the car up yet, but I commited to buying it, and the seller told the other people that are interested in it that it's sold, so it's pretty much mine. I'm going to be driving 7.5+ hours tommorow to go and pick it up. It's in Cincinnati, Ohio, a few states away from me, but I couldn't go wrong for the price. And I thank Chris (Turpro) for finding for me. And Atomic, those are craigslist photos, not my own. So I can't get any more pictures of the subaru.Last edited by Racerboy; 02-07-2013, 07:32 AM.My family has lots of bg's!

^details please^
And, I finally ordered some camber plates for mine. My Cusco plates are bent, and I've been meaning to have a water jet place cut me some 1/4" Mild steel replacements... Instead I found 1/2" Aluminum Billet CNC'd plates. They are for another vehicle, but appear to be very close to BG mounts in size. If it works well enough, I will do a writeup.Current:

Yeah. Pics and a write-up would be nice. Part number or model would be good too. I was actually looking at a 2.5rs in the junkyard on Tuesday, the struts looked to be close to BG, but I'm not sure. Didn't test fit.Current:

What I do is bend a piece of tin metal into a sort of chute and put it under the filter, and funnel the oil down into a pan. Still makes a mess, but not as big of one.My family has lots of bg's!
