Romp in the mud

Swweet! I <3 bajas. I could never find (hard to find i guess) but always wanted to buy a black on black 5mt turbo and put a lift and some nice a/t's mmmmm.

 
that's Awsome man! That Baja sounds Real good! Never knew a baja could sound like that, more of a reason for my gramps to put one on haah! very nice!

 
I don't think I've seen a black on black Baja either, a few charcoal ones though. When I bought mine I really wanted a garnet one, it was a year old, but they made me a great deal (interest rate wise) on a new silver one. It had to be a 5 speed though. If I ever get the chance to put a dual range tranny into this thing, it will be sweet.

So what's in it for a lift? And you know they make adapters to bolt up a dual range!! And I have a dual range:D

Scorpion 2" body lift, did it myself 2 years ago, took 3 days and a lot of crawling around under the car. I have seen the adapters online, what did your tranny come out of?

Cool! So you got one from Australia!! The tranny I have came out of an 89 GL wagon. It's a 5spd dual range. I have heard of a few people doing the swap. If you go onto ultimatesubaru.org, they can tell you exactly what you need for the swap. I also have two cars right now that have 5 spd dual ranges

 
I kind of want to swap a dual-range into my legacy, but my tranny works so well (except for the leaking and speed gear) that I don't want to swap in a transmission that may be a POS.

 
That thing is pretty sweet! Im not sure if ive seen any other baja's on here. So any future plans?

The next thing I would like to do is get some stiffer/longer springs. Having a hard time to find out specs though, it would be nice to find a site that lists the various spring lengths and load ratings for the different Subaru models. My "todo" list for the Baja is as follows

springs

skid plate

bull bar

sway bars and end links

dual range tranny

The ultimate goal considering it is an N/A model, is to make it as truck-like and versatile as possible.

 
Have to say watching this video started my day out right. The rumble of this Baja is amazing. I just wish more people saw the Baja as more than just a Brat wannabe.
