Adam i liked challenges, back in the day i did rover v8 4 ltr into Opel manta hatch, and have a Cosworth turbo into manta coupe which i still need to finish. the legacy is in full working order (1997 legacy gt twin turbo) The classic is of 1999 vintage on drums and small calipers, its not a problem as i recondition brakes and ive got a couple of 4 pot sets that am currently working on and a custom rear disc set up not using Subaru calipers but will be a bolt on alternative and a 330mm compB road caliper kit the size of discs all depend on the size of wheels i'll end up using. Everything on the saloon will be removed in turn as i was going to be swapping everything over axle/shafts/prop/b-box/engine & cross-member/brakes/exhaust's/loom etc.... I was thinking it should be virtually like for like even down to some of the interior fittings or am i being toooo ;) eager? The ECU will be stock for the moment as am not to clue'd up on that side of the proceedings ....... yet....but am sure it will be a eye opener for a while till i get onto that page. With you having a legacy whats the performance like for a day to day user and is the ecu mappable or is it a ESL addition i would be looking at in the future, i feel a good old photo session and spanner by spanner write up coming on :D its a pity we don't have a quarterly magazine to look forward to like the good old days of car clubs !

has anyone fitted a legacy twin turbo in a classic, as ive got or can get my hands on a legacy and fancy a small challenge, its complete and running fine :) and the scoob is a non turbo classic and has a head gasket problem and its not worth much but too good to scrap so we fancy a track-day car or something a little out of the ordinary ,but i don't know how much out of the ordinary it will be . so if anyone has had any hands on experience in this department please indulge me ;) before i make any further moves

well the stud holes are in the same place, that's a start. when you fitted them were the struts std items? -
Just got my self a pair of top mounts for the classic attachment=883:1402220_550987821643794_1567375843_o.jpg] i know i should have saved them and let Santa drop them down the chimney or at least wrap them in festive paper... BUT.... ITS CHRISTMAS ! PS check out the web site http://www.compbrake.com/

i think for the wagon 205/55/16 back in the day, the 224/45/17's i have on the wagon now are about 1/2 a mile out on the speedo because ive compared it with the sat nav speed's and i would have thought the sat nav would have been correct. -
