TheLoyale Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Yea I never understood why Rob has a lime green grill on a flat black coupe lol, Guess it go's with the interior.

Burnt, just like the rest of the car . I wouldnt try to use any structural parts from that car. Not from above the ground anyway... Ive got some more Ideas to think over when you get down here as well... -Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subaruguru Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 i would not use them fro structur but they could be cut out of the RX then weld them in to make the window frame for the side windows just to keep the shape i can explain more when im there.

The Beast I Drive Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 eh, they had some bondo in them too... I guess we could check it out, but fire warps the thin sheetmetal on the outside of them, I wouldnt use them, for some reason it just seems wrong... just dont feel right -Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subaruguru Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 true true we can figure it out later i used a box spring and matress cardbord box to make the rear wall template its gonna look really really good then im gonna get some stacks Chrome stacks.

FlyB0y Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 easy answer for both of them I'm a non conformist oh and i like it haha Rob. Right on! I'm with ya, there. Why make annother clone of something everyone else has already done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subaruguru Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 i have not seen anyone make a coupe into a brat i have seen hatchbacks and wagons but not a coupe. I also like this body style and i would just get a brat but to spendy for a good one and they are to small I am a big guy . and copying kind of yes but i could say the same thing about a lot of people you have a lifted rig right?... see what i mean every one is copying someone one way or another.

Rob. Yep yep, I guess we all have the same tastes Lol. I guess if we didn't, hen non of us would be on here, right....? Gonna put stacks in the bed! Hahahaa, that'll look cool. Hey, how come no one has ever ran duel exhaust on a Soob? No Y-pipe, two seprete headers. Would the back pressure be wrong? -Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subaruguru Posted July 17, 2009 Author Share Posted July 17, 2009 he's working on doing a site. A few people do the duel exhaust but you need a cross over or an X pipe or it makes a mess of your power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast I Drive Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I have dual exhaust on both my brats and the Beast, and I had dual exhaust on my RX too... I made an x pipe for my 1600 brat and it made a world of difference, but I think ill switch it to a crossover pipe for the sound Im looking for. The beast and my black Brat both have full dual exhaust and sound really mean, but I did lose some power by not putting in some kind of crossover. Oh and my Black Brat has stainless stacks.... -Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLoyale Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 I figured there would be some power loss without a cross-pipe. anyhoo Bill, you wouldn't have a video of what these sound like with full duel exhaust (No x-pipe) ?

The Beast I Drive Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I have a couple vids of the Beast offroad one night, and in the snow one day I don't have anything from my Black Brat yet, I dont have a digital camera, all the footage was taken by my buddy -Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
