somebody talk to me about the old subaru legacy turbos
 
I have had a couple in the shop over the years but never really paid attention to them much. I need a dd/family/death machine. I know I have seen wagons and sedans, I would like to find a sedan 5spd. Tell me all you know, mods, performance, specs ect.

That works. Or u could buy a Honda put a big turbo on it run lots of boost, crack a ringland and it will sound the same :P

The motor in those older turbo'd legacys are about as stout as they come. You should see the demand for those. I kid you not. It's pretty much the next best thing to like a STI engine as far as blocks go. They can take boost like ho takes cock. Do a search for EJ22T. 8) I like sube's but the legacy isn't that pretty to look at and I'm a shorter guy and the car felt huge and I could move the seat all the way foward and still felt like I was tippe toeing to reach the pedals.

The one I pictured is only $300 with a newer engine... maybe it might ne a good project

And I'm a taller guy so it might feel fine for me haha

Are you hopped up on cock? EJ22 are indestructible, and what feels like a 15 second grandma car can be taken WOT up steep ass washed out driveways at 35-40 mph when a stock Honduh would be bouncing around and losing surface contact at 10 mph. You're thinking the older EA82T when you say leaks oil and worthless.

I'm not a big Scoobie fan, but for you to not know the difference makes me wish you get fisted by multiple large gay men. :3

PS - EJ12 and ER27 are my fav Scoobie engines. :6
