The other thread was all over the place as far as plans go. Time to reboot.
I haven't really been documenting what I have done so far, I've only owned the car just over a year so lets just count this all as the first years work.
Current Mods:
Exterior:
-Cupra R Lip (Removed)
-Subaru Legacy GT Lip
-Black painted front lower valence
-Smoked grilles from chrome
-Silverstar Rainbow turn signal bulbs
-Euro Clear turn signal housings
-3000k Fog lights
-5000k Osram CBI Bulbs
-Natural White LED city lights (5000k)
-Gloss black vinyl roof overlay
-OEM Roof Racks
-Stickers
-35% window tint
Interior:

Maintenance things:
-Serpentine belt and idler pullies
-Spark Plugs
-Fuel Pump
-Fuel Filter
-Crank Position Sensor
-Cleaned Throttle body
-Windshield replaced (also just fixed the rain sensing wiper sensor)
-Pads and rotors
-Rollers for passenger window replace
-Back half of down pipe replaced
-Flushed coolant and power steering
-Fixed trunk wires
-NEW OEM ballast/headlight controllers (bought putting in soon)
I think that really wraps up the first year of ownership, I guess I did a lot more than I thought.
Plans for 2014:
-06+ interior swap (door panels, b-pillar, sills), I will most likely dye the dash and other small plastic pieces to black. Debating the carpet since the door leather inserts is the same color as the carpet
-Full interior tear down and sound deadening and insulation everywhere/overkill
-Tang Band 6x9 speakers powered by some 2 channel amp (this will complete my stereo) I must say for a 15 year old system (went into cars first in 1997) it is not bad and this last bit sound give me a bit more bass without distortion.
-Hirsch knockoff pedals
-BSR Dual exhaust
-Front Subframe poly bushings
-New LCA's with Rubber bushings and balljoints (OEM, Poly's are okay hear but make noise on our cars)
-New OEM tie rods
-SAS Sway bars
-Lightened OEM Flywheel (5-7lbs)
-New Clutch
-Manual transmission update kit and adding a Limited Slip Differential
-Replace broken A/C line
-Seal and paint subframes
Other plans in the pipe work:
-I have a knuckle from a 9-5 and a 08+ CTS AWD Caliper (I think JE5, the one that uses the 315mm rotors), well it bolts up to the knuckle and looks to be in the right spot, but I need to test with a 9-3 Aero Rotor because it is 314mm. If this all works out, I can flush my brake fluid finally and get some Stainless steel lines.
-Genuine Saab makes a Custom Steering wheel...that I really just have to have.
-LED Tail lights, I've played with this idea, still back burner until other things are done.
-Enkei RPF1's 18x8 35mm should be a possibility next winter.
And now pictures in Order from when I bought it up until now.
