Weird. That thing looks like it's got a lot more wheel gap than my 94 does??

What size are the tires on the 17's. You said you just put them on for fun, but are they rubbing the struts or anything?

I'd like to see some day-shots of the car with 17's on it!

Yeah, make sure you tend to the rust especially in front of the rear wheel arch before it gets really bad.

That's a nice 90-91 NA sitting behind it :)

Congrats! A few fender replacements and she'll be good as new! :D

BAC5.2: They're 225/45/17 Falken Azenis Sports. I had them on my WRX. They rubbed on the WRX until I added rear camber and pulled the fenders out a little. 225 azenis are wider than your average 225 tire. I'm taking them off and getting another set of stock 15" alloys with summer tires for the daily car. The wheels that came on it have brand new Nokian hakka snow tires on them :)

like it did on the other side of the car... :lol: The front fender has a rust spot the size of a basketball. I don't care much about looks on this car since its a daily driver. It seems none of the rust is in areas where it will present a problem. If it starts getting real bad i'll do some ghetto repair on it or get some used fenders in better shape. The underbody and the exhaust and everything were in real good shape surprisingly. bottom line...the price was right for what it is ;)

Its for sale I think. It has full leather interior and whatnot. Very nice looking car. I can ask about it if anyone is interested.

Your car has rust spots in the exact same spots as mine. mind you it's not as noticable since mine is grey not white.

They all rust in the same spots. Dude if your serious about modding that car, you should at least get the rust fixed. Make it look decent.

Mark,

I just noticed, your car is missing the legacy turbo front bumper, it has a normal legacy bumper skin. Odd. prolly an accident or something once upon a time.
