Kati's '98 Forester S

Head gaskets are beginning to leak on this. And the struts are tired. Might be some changes soon.

 
Buy mine for parts :-P
Lol, as much as I'd like to buy all the Subarus, my yard and driveway does not support me in the idea. I already have one junk car here that doesn't have a title, so it will be a bit before I can add to the collection right now.

I already acquired a set of different wheels I might use on this, for cheap, still working on the replacement suspension though.

 
So the new suspension arrived yesterday. Not sure when it'll go in yet. I also got a replacement tire with pretty much the same amount of tread for the wheels I have for this too. Should be a big change once it's all installed.

 
Should be going into the shop this week. Needs headgaskets and passenger rear wheel bearing. Also getting an almost brand new set of 05 Forester XT front and rear brake calipers, with cryo treated rotors and Hawk pads. A little over kill for this, but I got it all for $100 shipped from Texas, and the brakes need attention anyway. And the new suspension set up consists of almost brand new SF Forester specific BC coilovers, and it'll be sitting on 18x7.5 RAYS G-games wheels that I got for cheap. Should look a lot different.

And I don't have a whole lot of concern in the coilovers lasting a long time. The amount this car is driven, they will still be good  years from now, no problem! And most people have good things to say about the BC's.

I forget what bc coil overs I got but I def like them. Tons of adjustability and ride very nice
That's good. These will be set on the softest setting for sure, and will be low for the 18's, and then it'll get cranked up a bit for winter. But it usually only leaves the driveway once a week, if that.
