    So it looks the car is going to be crushed as scrap metal















    ONLY KIDDING GUYS

    Im back for good!!!

    I got the car back in its dirty state, i towed it with my other car i have



    So i got it home without any trouble, it then sat on my driveway for 1 month until funds allowed me to get a VTNZ warrent of fitness (WOF) which cost double the price of a normal warrent of fitness ( Basicly a check up to make sure your car is safe on the road )







    Then after awhile i finally got motivated to work on it hoping to get it some-what legal which involved raising the height as it was too low for NZ standards



    Threw on the outback bumper for a week but decided not to rock it until its repainted and has spot lights to fill the holes



    Took it to VTNZ but was declined for being too low :/ Look how high it is ahaha



    So had to go to another VTNZ



    In to which i was surprised that the subi was repairable Cost me $60 to get back on the road :O

    Decided that once my car was all perfect and legal, to make it illegal again So i dropped the car all around and ended up tucking abit of rim in the back. My mate in the drivers seat lol.



    So then got around to locking the diff once again as its quite easy to get stuck with open diff



    While it was jacked up thought id have a look at some of the damage = bit of axle binding and rear diff been taking abit of a beating.





    So car back on the road, at a good height, thought it would be time for a professional photoshoot with a mate













    And my personal favorite so far (also my background )

    haha ive been caught drifting before back in march when it snowed where i lived for the first time in like 10 years.

    it was 330am, im underage, and i was drinking before. the cops were chill about it and escorted me back to my friends house but they fucked with me alot.

    Well haven't posted on here for awhile so ill bring everyone up to where im at today.

    One day i decided that the front was to high and only thing stopping me dropping it right down was the strut rubbing on the CV boot but decided to sack up and drop it.

    Before


    After


    Clearance (Or lack of )


    Not the biggest drop but heres the final result



    Since being on break from finishing school i decided to final tackle the guards.

    Before


    During








    Resulting in





    Only got around to doing that one guard before the weather turned bad, deciding to keep it primer because i like the look of the "work in progress" look.

    While the weather was bad i thought it would be the perfect opportunity to take full advantage of it.

    Thats where this came in handy.


    Went out and had some fun with it



    Threw on some skid rims


    It was all fun and games until someone gets caught....



    So story is drifting/burnouts etc are illegal and i got caught resulting in car impounded for 28 days. Getting it back 5th January but still not certain whether or not this car will be permanently off the road due to a nice green sticker the cops gave me.

    Similar to this


    So until i get my car back here is some photos from whenever









    Until then. Thanks for looking and i hope to bring my car back

    Thanks guys! Engine is pretty much stock apart from a k&n panel filter which everyone knows increases atwkw by 50% Hopefully in the future im looking into a engine and transmission swap. Most likely a wrx or sti with manual transmission just to give it abit more go. But as i said thats not on the cards for awhile due to being broke ass
    Dont really know what my next car will be, im thinking old school toyota, really jdm shiz. But not really sure when to sell this until it looks abit better.

    Well here it is. Pictures!

    Here is a shot to show what it looked like from stock till now.














    Still few more small thing to do including maybe dropping the front bit more, put on new bumper and touching up the paint around the car.

    Thanks for looking! Would love to hear some criticism, good or bad

    Yea hopefully if not better..

    Also got a rolling video from a mate on the way back home from a drift event.

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xFecVI_cTU"]Andy WTF happened? - YouTube[/ame]

    Also the reason behind the different rear wheels, i got a small split in my sidewall on one of my steelies and needed rims asap so brought a set off a mates sister. I think they look quite nice, not sure if its the design of them or the colour.

    But its Stanceworks tradition to post teasers

    Yes steelies are up for sale as i need to make room for new rims.

    So im currently trying to polish the lips on the new rims, and figured id take some random photos for you guys to look at.

    Looking at removing the stickerbombing and replacing it with wooden trim surrounds.


    Had abit of mud fun...


    Pretty much standard apart from brace, in the future im hoping to relocate afew thing such as washer bottle, battery to the boot, fusebox.


    And if anyones seen Gill's from ScrapedCrusaders subaru then you may have noticed his outback/grandwagon front bumper, i really like the look of it so brought myself a bumper and just gotta repaint it and buying a set of fogs to fill the holes.


    Stay Tune.
