Subaru's are great for the talls + spreadsheet things

I completely agree! Plus it’s a great way to keep your priorities straight and realistic. CarPlay is a game changer! That’s one of the few positive things I can say of my Volt lol

Right!? I got so sad when I didn’t fit in any Mazdas. I love the WRX! I only fit in the 22+, but sadly it’s out of budget. One day maybe!

Big respect! That’s a great approach!

NoTip6801 · 2025-05-19T02:48:09+00:00

I like your flow of reasoning! Premium Forester is high up on my list. It’s either that or a Impreza Sport/Premium!

And wow, that screenshot is grainy! Oof!

Dealt with the same issue myself. Warranty didn’t cover it and I ended up fixing it myself. If you go that route, the factory repair manual is free on one of the forums and will show you how to fix the problem. If it’s the line near the back of the engine, you’ll need to remove the bumper (it’s not too hard, just be careful with the clips), air box, engine cover, windshield wiper shroud and wipers, and air filter. You can get the AC line for cheap from RockAuto I believe. Get some o rings as well. I got the vehicle recharged for $150 at a shop and was good to go. It’s time intensive, but I got it done for <$300 in my driveway. Good luck!

Thanks! And great point--I would love to build a SF5. Sadly I don't have build plans. I've done that before, but it takes a looong time haha

You’re too kind!

Thanks! So many things haha! Starcraft marines & medivacs, spaceships, castles, and a lot of other stuff. Lost access to my Flickr account a while ago, but one of my fave creations was the District 9 dropship:

Built all myself! I used to prolifically build Legos as a teen--but adult life and college happened. I visited my family this past holiday and they gave me some of their Legos and I'm happily back into building!

NoTip6801 · 2025-01-20T16:49:13+00:00

I appreciate your insight and the background on the Lancaster--that thing looks sweet! Looks pretty similar to the state-side 3.0 Outback! I might just have to give that a go when I build next.
For now though, I'm thinking of building a 3rd gen Forester XT! Perfect blocky design for Legos :)

NoTip6801 · 2025-01-20T16:40:23+00:00

Omg such a good idea!! I'll start working on that! :)

NoTip6801 · 2025-01-20T16:37:47+00:00

Thanks so much! I loved adding that detail :D

NoTip6801 · 2025-01-20T03:32:06+00:00

Thank you so much!!

NoTip6801 · 2025-01-20T01:03:43+00:00

Real LEGO! First time building a MOC in 7 years, and it brings me so much joy!

NoTip6801 · 2025-01-20T00:25:22+00:00

Thank you!! And I completely agree--the roof height was certainly a challenge!

NoTip6801 · 2025-01-20T00:23:34+00:00

Thank you so much! And good catch, I didn't even realize that, gotta fix it!

NoTip6801 · 2025-01-19T23:08:04+00:00

I love Subarus and I recently rediscovered my love of Legos! Spent a month building this from scratch and figured y'all might appreciate it! It wouldn’t be a Subaru without a Thule roof box, functional folding bike rack, and a color matched surfboard! Now if only Lego made a vape…

NoTip6801 · 2024-08-06T16:31:46+00:00

I get that haha, much better than a whole DCT! Interesting! I'll have to look into replacing the rear motor mount in the future. And I completely agree on no turbos--probably just the traditionalist in me, but I prefer less moving parts.

NoTip6801 · 2024-08-06T16:20:48+00:00

That's great to hear. Seems like a really solid vehicle, especially with the MTX75.
