I always found Leones to be plain ugly, but these last picks beside the old gas station, they prove otherwise. So sexy and clean ! Too bad it's not a wagon lol.
I saw on Montreal Racing, he started a new project with a Loyale Wagon
Maybe he can update this new project here ?
Good job for your both projects !

the wagon wont be to crazy as the sedan, and thank you
so this is what else I'm working on at the moment along with the lower pillow ball bushing for my coil overs, I decided to get a one piece unit made so I can get rid of the rubber spacers and all that mess..
this is a prototype unit to test on the car then i can get them made up once it fits ok.
black is 80s strut mount, green is coil over mount.. needs a bit more work to be perfect fit
also found the rear garnish in japan for my car, maybe ill put it on. to many holes to drill in a clean car.

subaru 80's old meets subaru 2012 new moulded into one...
cnc billet aluminium & anodized black, now I can add a pillow ball at the top mount like the front..
next project is cnc billet aluminium front control arms with pillow ball and 1' longer so I can get some larger cv axles to with stand the abuse I am about to put down. cv axles will be new age subaru length.

so this is my rear top hats bolted up with spherical bearings.. the lower cups also have 2015 STi spherical bearings made buy subaru which I needed to make a spacer.
I decide to get serious with my coil-overs to make this car handle like a top notch missile and I got the GR STi Ohlins road & track set.. I have to do two mod's to make them fit perfect which is the lower rear bushing mount will be made new with a STi spherical bearing and drill the front top plates to early subaru size like leone/gc8. my reactions from just holding the ohlins is how light weight they are WOW half the weight of my hsd..
like to thank jake @ ohlins usa for hooking me up with the extend clickers also !.. there on the way.

they where ok.. little bit stiff and not responsive over bumps, and very heavy.
I am building a leone wagon project and will use hsd for wagon project

so here they are, my very own aluminium control arms like the big boy STi have. now the little Leone can be up to STi spec !
But the little Leone has 1up on the STi with the 2015 STi oem pillow ball bushing in its place
25mm longer so now I can run oem cv axles from a STi or those 800hp ones..

so since I was on the track and all most lost a motor to a faulty oil pressure sensor leaking I decided to get some proper equipment to finish the system off and new sensors.
Radium fuel rails and Bosch FPR adapter to keep it nice and simple and in series on my spare Spec-c V8 STi intake manifold.
I can build the proper lines now then swap them on to my Leone
also finally finished my new front bumper... JDM/USDM mixed with Canada top trim and impact beam.. fully mutt now lol.
all done no more accidents please !!!... next to my favourite year Subaru 2015 got to get one of these

so I just ordered these EJ22T oil jets brand new from the dealership which if I remember right they couldn't be sold at the dealership which is a myth !.. also got the JDM STi quick steering sticker for my Leone.
out of japan I finally found one of these rare STi 6mt Short shifters which was a task and has the serial number right on it from STi factory.
