Thats awesome! I did a big overhaul on My 02 wrx at 570k last year. I now hope to get another 20 years out of it! You definitely know the secret to care and maintenance with your car.

Any real car guy can respect a build like this. Just beautifully done fellas.

That is some of the best work I've seen in terms of a full restoration. Have my subscription. You deserve it.

There are not many sports cars in Korea. They are almost all sedans and SUVs. Nowadays, clubs and other clubs are gradually forming after restoring cars from the 1990s and 1980s. But even in Japan or the U.S., these restoration cultures are developed a lot. I'm just jealous.

@TheSubieSanctuary That's right. Isn't it a difference in corporate perception? I have a question. Is it easy to get parts when restoring famous Japanese cars in the 90s and 2000s?(ex nissan skyline gtr series or Mazda rx7 or Toyota ae86 and so on)

@TheSubieSanctuary

@@user-ev4gk6qr3z I find with the popular classic japanese cars that they are somewhat easy to get parts for compared to more off beat classic jdm cars. Only issue is the prices for getting parts for them and its really spread out in terms of places to obtain the parts. But i would say the popular classics do have pretty good support still!

Honestly call your local dealer with the part number. I cant count how many parts they were able to get jdm parts for me. Even if the part comes up no applicable model or not in warehouse. Subaru will send it from japan to north american warehouse. Ordered more stuff this week, takes like 3 weeks to come in but subaru pays the shipping 😉
