My Twinscroll Legacy

Jasper

Petrolheads
Hi Lads,
She is finally left me alone to post this, so I bought Dan's Legacy a couple of months back now. The car is a real credit to him, brilliant condition!
Since buying it I have done a couple of things, a set of STI Brembos on the front with new discs and pads, (Brembos from Dontommy, cheers) and pads, discs, fitted by Dave @ RSR.
Also had the car remapped by Duncan from RaceDynamics @ RSR, thanks Dave. Pulls Very Well now!!! Have no idea of BHP but not bothered, its quick enough :)
Its going to be hard to put my stamp on the car as Dan had done SO much to it!
Few small things to sort out and try put my stamp on the car.
The list that I can think of so far.....

Set of gauges mounted in the small cubby above radio
New lamda sensor, old one gone
Refurb of alloys, few small scrathes, thinking of going with a dark bronze color!
Boot spoiler (Just a very small lip! Maybe carbon dipped, bit chav??? :))
Drivers seat is a bit faded on the leather, Vinnybryne.com do a leather spray on thats suppose to be great!

A few pics to follow, all courtesy of Dan Photography :) (Car is dirty at the moment)

Lovely car Shane
Delighted you got it
I wouldn't spray the seat if I could avoid it
Just use autoglym interior cleaner and a magic sponge
rub lightly
then few treatments with autoglym leather care
and I would guess that should do it
Carbon fibre spoiler wouldn't be for me
Nice BMW style small lip on rear boot lid would be nice
Im guessing a 5 series one could be longer and then trimmed in middle to fit
or something similar
Happy motoring :thumbsup:
 
Have seen this in my estate a few times, looks and sounds great! I thought it was Dans old one but the brembo's threw me off.
Really lovely car, all the best with it.

Fair play Shane. Great bus youve got. My brakes couldnt go on a better car. Im glad this stays in the club and looking forward to see it as l havent seen it since Dave did the facelift.
Join in as a full member and we will have Rolling Road when you can see what number will make after remap.

@scoobycolm, cheers colm, ill give that a go and post some pics!


@all, Thanks lads! Really enjoying it! @dontommy, ye the brakes look great behind the rotas! Must sign up, be interesting to see what it makes.

@eli, ye it lives around the corner eli, your impreza always looked so clean putting me to shame!!

Gave it a quick wash, looks well. I changed jobs recently, so it'll be a few weeks before I have any "spare" cash to throw away...i mean invest in the car :)

Keep her looking well Shane! I miss it a lot, the Audi is a much more sedantary drive compared to the leagcy!

If you can i would try get the Defi single din gauge for that little cubby section. Not the cheapest though but maybe you can get one second hand from the auctions


This is the sensor you need, and best price you can find:

For the spoiler, you could try the STI low rise one:

Pricey K2 carbon lip spoiler:

Liberal one:

Cyber R one comes in carbon or FRP:

Update!

Its been a while since the last update, FEW bits done. Unfortunately not alot of pictures but I have some :)

Rear caliper overhaul- new pistons and seals.
New rear brake pads
Oil service and filter change
Rear diff oil change
New lambda sensor.

Very pleased with caliper overhaul, they look alot better. Cheers to Dave @ RSR for the good work. Really pleased with the extra touch of painting the hub of the rear brake discs black (Something that wasnt asked for, just done), looks 10x better than the previous rust :) Its the small things!!!

Also, car has developed a rough idle last week, will book it in to be looked at during the week hopefully. Pain in the ass!

After rough idle is sorted and to generate some interest.............the legacy will be going up for sale. I love the car, alot of work done in the last 6 months and really enjoy driving it so it wont be cheap. I am unsure of the price yet but watch this space!!!

I understand they arent all worth what we would like, but here's hoping! :)

Picture time-

Cheers, Jasper.
