This is where I post pictures of my car.

I love getting emails and questions, don't hesitate: nathan.epp@telstra.com

This is a 1987 Subaru GL 4WD sedan, which is a very rare car in Australia, being factory four-wheel-drive with high and low range and a final drive ration of 3.9:1. I bought the car in early 2003; one elderly owner, 60,000km on the clock. Being a GL spec it's fully loaded for 1987 with A/C, central locking, tacho, carpet (which was a big thing for Subaru back then!) and nice seats.

So far the car has got a 4" BYB lift kit (please visit Brett at www.ausubaru.com) and 27" BFGoodrich tires. I used to use speedy rims but I've actually bent a few so I upgraded to Scorpion custom-made jobbies, expensive but worth it. Here's a photo of the little girl with her new shoes and the alloy 'roo bar I got from a mate.

Some form of Kangaroo protection is very important where I live, I've probably hit 5 in the last year.

For a donk it's got a SOHC EJ20 out of a Subaru Impreza RX. I was going to go with the WRX conversion, but it would put too much stress on the part-time 4WD drivetrain as well as mean a whole heap more engineering hassles... and as the GL weighs 400kg less than a Rex, it goes just about as quick.

Plans for the future include upgrading to a custom 6" lift and a Toyota pickup live-axle coilover rear end with an ARB diff lock. I'm in the process of separating left and right front handbrakes and converting to a rose-jointed front end.

So sit back and see the pictures on the next few pages!
