February 7, 20169 yr Hi there im new to the forum and im looking at getting myself a legacy 2.5 non turbo... Anything i need to look out for when buying on and what mods can i do to it. Cheeers in advance
February 7, 20169 yr Author Im definately a manual man lol. I currently own a mondeo v6 but im to happy with it at all... doesnt feel as good to drive as my old mondeo so i have decided i always wanted a subaru so ill look into getting one

February 7, 20169 yr Hi there. I had a 2L R legacy estate, manual normally aspirated. It was a great car, probably the best driving car I ever had...... but, be aware that parts come at a premium. A new clutch and duel flywheel cost me over £700, and when I was quoted £2500 for an exhaust replacement that was the last straw for me! Problem is you need proper subaru parts for these things which cost the earth!!!! So my advise is check all the expensive bits have been done recently...

Practically the same car. When you say the best car you ever had, i presume you don't have it anymore? I converted my Dual mass flywheel to a single mass flywheel at half the price. I also replaced the exhaust for 550 quid at a powerflow dealer. I also found a few sellers on ebay that sell genuine subaru parts for cheaps :) - this guy.. http://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/impartsb46?_trksid=p2056016.l2559 ps Welcome to the club Blocko. You could either look at a 2ltr, 2.5 or 3.0 models.
February 8, 20169 yr Author Im looking a 2.0 and 2.5 around a 51plate saloon. Do impreza engine mods bolt straight on.. as im thinking of having a standard turbo set up added at some point and some impreza seats..
