Here are just a few of the 16 or 17 toys I've owned over the years (not including the many dirt bikes as well):

Funny thing is that the tinted plate cover is the same one since 2004! Still not a scratch on it

Legacy GT Spec.B was my daily, while White STi Spec-C Type RA (one out of 350 ever made) was weekend toy GC8 Type RA with 22b exterior - was a crazy mistake I did buying And ver.6 Yellow GC8 was a blast in winter ... Wife and I where driving this bad boy from US converted fully to JDM bB replica with Garson kit and other crazy stuff for almost 3 years (one of the longest kept cars ever in my life )




Until i managed to get back to AWD family once again - with this Legacy Diesel converted to look like legacy STi



Year later - got my self another rarity - Forester STi - did a LHD conversion on it, drove it for a while - and understood that its no go (especially after few STi's that i had )



And had this one as my Oldschool toy:



On the side note - i was building this one:



But sold it unfinished to get the FRS... That's the step i MIGHT regret one day - but for now - FRS is a blast

But my Yard is still looking like this day after day



Thanks god that i have a understanding wife, and that she deals with my obsession with cars............. Because now i bought Legacy Spec.B WR-Limited And want to keep it as daily
Nice list of cars but why all the LHD conversions? I also drive a JDM import and i like the RHD, you get used to it very fast and it turns heads.

Thanks! Trial kit... Yeah one of the first five or so I'd say. The guy who probably is responsible for many of the swaps lives in Houston / Katy. After mine I became good friends with him. Trying to motivate him to jump on the BRZ/FR-S.

Port/polish, valves, valve springs.... We had the redline set at 9.3k RPMs... That thing sounded like an F1 car.

No cant do that here You can not register a car that is RHD here... You can drive it for some time - but doing so - is total risk here cuz of the LHD traffic and roads are narrow here.. Its no problem for me driving RHD - just that I cant register / 'legaly' drive them here so.....
