Phizinza Posted April 18, 2005 Author Share Posted April 18, 2005 Ahh.. but you see, I put a little more effort in :-p I gave it all those features the old one has. like the sloop behind the doors, the bump on the roof for the roll-bar, and the right shape for the doors too. Anyway, I'll shut up about how much better mine is :-p And give you guys and girls a new link. I posted this in the new gen subarus forum.... right here! What do you tihnk?

subGSR Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 You will have to try and send your pictures to FHI. They have to see them they are excellant. I was doing some picture editing last night. I am kinda annoyed at the Subaru Baja. So I thought that my version is better. Heres a seriers of pictures that show you what I tried to do. Oh, and try to wait for the hole post to load before scrolling down. What the beast looks like. What they done. What I would of done. What I done it out of. The lifted one, as requested below :-p I hope the ppl I used the pictures off of don't mind. If you do, I'll take 'em down. And for the mods. I know this is a post with "new" subies in it, but I think its more appealing to us old brat and brumby lovers. Please don't move this post. Thank you.

Phizinza Posted May 3, 2005 Author Share Posted May 3, 2005 sorry to sound dumb.... FHI??? whats that? I tried sending them to Subaru (the USA site) they sent back something along these lines 'sorry, we cannot help you. you may want to contact your local (australian) Subaru." I'm like wtf??? I just sent them a link to this site saying have a look.. and please think it over. Oh well, maybe next time I'm in sydney I'll drop in to Subaru with some pictures. Oh wait, I've never been to sydey.... EDIT: oh and thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wait, I've never been to sydey.... Well, at least you tried - I am not surprized given how things tend to go over here ..... I think you would have had better luck sending it to Japan - you need to find some sort of customer feedback forumn or something .... I don't know .... all I can say is that it is Subaru's loss ....

Phizinza Posted July 24, 2005 Author Share Posted July 24, 2005 Sorry I haven't emailed earlier, but I've been on a offroad holiday I got a lot to learn about offroading! like how much ground clearance I have! I emailed the Subaru guys again (using the link just up this page a bit, hope they reply) I watch WRC and some of the Australian rally. I used to drive like a bat outta hell on the local dirt roads, but after rolling my brothers car I've slown down a tad :-/. I live about 80K's south of adelaide (South Australia) Hahaha, with about 10mins of looking you could get my address off the internet now... (I betta be nice to every one, don't want anybody coming after me, or my subie!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phizinza Posted July 24, 2005 Author Share Posted July 24, 2005 Nice to have you back man, how was your holiday? It was great. Only done a few hours of offroading. Got stuck twice, but all in good fun. i got 20mins of video I might be able to get 30seconds of good stuff out of it. I'm a little bit bored of driving, but i'm getting over that now. 1500km in 5 days isn't what i call fun, but the 4 - 6 hours of offroad was a blast... Just have to learn about the car a bit more. i'll post about it soon with picys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott in Bellingham Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 This mite sound kinda dumb, but has anybody thought of a trayback Brumby (Brat) ... what is a Trayback I am from the USA not fimiliare with that term Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott in Bellingham Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 If I made Subaru make one of these I would have to get them to give me one! Cos theres no way in hell I could afford it. Do you think I should make an appointment with Subaru? If I lived in the states I'd be at the Subaru factory door and wouldn't back off till I was promised they'd make one! I love my brat, but I'd love a new one even more! If it had a 6" lift, bullbar, rollbar, 6 spotties, and some serious wheels! Maybe, just maybe they'll be nice to me, and make a new Brat! Bring me a car and I will make a brat out of it I love cutting up cars and modifiing them. the sawzall is one of my favorite tools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted August 26, 2005 Author Share Posted August 26, 2005 Haha. I would, but if you remember what i said about if subaru made one of these they would have to give me one as theres no way in hell I could aford it. Cutting u cars is fun, when you are doing a good job of it! A normal ute looks like this one A tray top looks like this Its basicly a tray made out of alloy.

Phizinza Posted August 27, 2005 Author Share Posted August 27, 2005 The pictures I showed are of Suzuki MightyBoy's. The tray top one is a custom job. But with Toyota Hilux's (sometimes called Toyota 4x4's) they can come from the factory like this. Also our local manufactures in Australia (ford and holden) do a tray top version of there utes (just a ute version of there sedans, falcon and commerdor.) Its quite a commen thing here is Australia, don't know where else it is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
