ZOMBRNR's 06 T4R Limited Build Thread

[ZOMBRNR]

Great pictures and it sounds like you guys had a great time. Did you have enough fuel for the weekend or did you drive somewhere to fill back up?

Thank you! We had a blast out in Anza, love that place. We filled up gas in town on the second day but could have made the trip without it.

Brandon, rig is looking awesome man, where did you get your CB antenna mount?

Thank you sir. The CB mount is a Comet RS720, they're about $30 from The Antenna Farm, Your two way radio source

Plastidipped emblems. Installed Comet RS720, 3' Firestick, T4R.org Stickers, & Zombie Outbreak Response Team stickers, 2" receiver D-ring Shackle

Where did you get your d ring shackle receiver from? I'm in the market for one and that one looks good

Believe I got it off Amazon for pretty cheap.

If I had to do it all over again, id go with the Factor 55 Hitchlink. Much higher quality and quite the bling factor!

How do you like your Fox setup?

How do you like your Fox setup?

The Fox's are great. It's hard to really give a good review of them since the only other comparison I have is the stock XREAS suspension. I've had a ton of cars over the years with all kinds of suspension. Spring/Shock, Coilovers, Remote Resi stuff, you name it I've used it.

The Fox's have an extremely composed and comfortable ride. They keep the truck nimble and feels great both on and off road. I have full confidence with them and can take corners with ease. This is tough to say for a 4500 lbs truck.

The only thing I can suggest, and I should have done this before installing is this:

If you have a 4WD and/or V8, get the 700lb springs, and send to Fox and have them revalve to compensate for the additional weight of the V8. These Coilovers were designed for a V6 FJ, so they definitely will need some help in the rebound/compression department.

They are just a tad too floaty for my liking. Then again, im used to riding in 12/10k full stiff coilover setups on R-comp tire race cars haha.

Thank you sir!! Haven't taken her out in a while, got lucky with a ticket to ride and parked outside. It's funny I get spotted more in the runner than I do my scooby.

What a crazy coincidence! I just saw a posting on this thread then I see you Brandon! Haha, this guy really is everywhere. I was in Irvine for lunch yesterday and I see this awesome rack out of the corner of my eye. Lo and behold, it's you.

Hey that's me! Thanks for the snaps, sorry I missed ya for lunch!

Boy its been a while since I've been on here. It's been a busy year with not much wheeling. Been focusing on my rallycross car and the racing season.

I did finally get an RTT though and love it!

 

[TrueBlue]

Thanks [MENTION=1422]the_josh[/MENTION] !

Installed a Diehard Platinum 31M & Blue Sea Fuse block. Did some restoration on my headlights too.

Would you mind showing me some more pictures of your Blue Sea fuse block setup? I just got mine and I really like how you laid yours out

Pretty much all my lighting accessories just wire up to the fuse block, and the block itself mounts to the chassis. I'll try and snap some more pictures when I get a chance.

I miss the boxer rumble. I still hang out with the group and there are some pretty big cats here in Iowa actually that in the Subaru scene. Love to hear what you have done to it. And I will see what clips I can find of my old one and some of the guys in the local club.

Thanks man! Appreciate the support, especially on that stupid other thread too lol.

Here's some of my clips from the last races, I have another double championship weekend in a few days, so I'll get some new vids with the new setup.

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnRZcX9XMEIKP31CAtX79dT8i92K7Bv5j

The mod list is pretty long, but to me the most important ones are:

- Flatout R5710 Remote resi coilovers
- Removed front sway
- Subaru 4/2 brakes w/Stoptech rotors & pads, stainless lines
- Braid Winrace Acropolis 15x7 rally wheels / DMACK DMG2 205/65/15 Rally tires
- Cobb SF Intake
- Maddad V2 catted downpipe
- Blitz Nur-Spec R exhaust
- Stage 2 Protune by Bardabe

Makes 239/252 to the wheels. I'll have to dig up the full mod list...it's gotten pretty long over years, but the car is so much fun to drive either on tarmac or dirt.

Yeah I always enjoyed my STi, then after babying it and realizing how impractical it was for me I ended up getting an older 5 spd Outback and just had a blast with it. As for some local subarus

That sounds pretty epic, and totally understandable with your 5 spd as compared to the other STi's. We actually have a local speciality shop that builds the high end motors that you see in a lot of vehicles pushing over 700+. Take a look at Off The Line Performance - Parts Store as well as boosted-performance . These guys are crazy and the owners both have some amazing vehicles. Case in point this is Justins personal car and owner of Off the line
2000 RS to 2005 STI swap (500+whp and going!) - NASIOC

How much have you used your RTT? We used it on our trip last year and haven't had time to mount it back up and do some more camping.
