Man that is a sweet vehicle. Love it! Absolutely love the JDM touches these cars have on the other side of the world. Now I really want the skirts, and rear ganish. Do you have power folding mirrors to? I do not see a RS-RA label so I assume it is just a single turbo. Anyway again sweet ride.

thanks

My car is mint. I like to keep the exterior as original, wich I usually waxed. And I like to customize the interior with any driving aids. The small GPS, I used all the time. The large one is outer zoom mainly. I installed a laptop under the driver's seat. But what I really love is the head up diplay. It's the first thing I installed.

ERICEM:
sorry: JDM? RS-RA? Mine is european version. No power folding mirrors, but still electric powered normal ones.
You can get the rear garnish from a dealer. I did that to get spare parts. I didn't go to a junkyard because my car is extremely rare in Spain, (and besides, a pleasure to drive). It's single turbo, your right.

I thought you weren't supposed to put chains on AWD cars? Or at least not just on two tires. Everyone always says to make sure you run the same exact size and tire on each wheel at the same pressure or it'll mess up your AWD. If that's true, imagine what chains on two wheels would do.

How much did the garnish cost you at your dealership? I am sure the side and rear skirt could be bought at a dealer to!

Good point: I thought exactly the same when I wanted to use my car in snow. So I read the manual, and it really says clear you have to put chains only on the front wheels. It has sence, becouse the car gets traction on the front, where the direction is, and the diferential (I thing that's the word) does the rest of the job. Actually my car worked very well on snow! I really had fun that day

SILINC3R: I would like to do that really! But my car is in the garage in Spain. I used all the time I visited my relatives. The last time it failed to star. But I know how to fix it now thanks only to this forum....and the next time I will re-alive it.
(I when back every 6 moths for three years, and, except the last time, allways started straight away!...impressive... no even my friends belived this)

Hi ericem,
the external garnish is original in my version. I comes with any Legacy turbo.
