Re: 1992 Legacy BC Turbo - brake improvement

Re: Best year for 1st gen turbo legacy?
I have a October 1991 Leagcy Turbo, complete with Mk2 grill wings & headlamps but has the original Mk1 rear suspension.
The best version just finding one without damage or rust.
Keep driving & enjoy the Legacy whoosh.

I had the same issue, turns out it was the seal on the spoler - it was shot . I just removed the spoiler cleaner up the rust & debris replaced seal with clear bathroom sealant.

Re: 1992 Legacy Sun Roof control box relay issue
Glad to learn mike-tracy you were successful with your sun roof, I've had the whole unit out twice now - 1st time to redo the seal then to attempt a repair.
I'm back to the emergency handle.
I think the ISUZU was marketed as Longhorn in some markets

Plenty of relay clicks but no sign of sun roof moving open close etc.
Now its back to the emergency handle operation.

I'm into my 70's these days and still believe if someone made it I can repair/fix it. In England there are less than 20 BC BF Legacy's left on the ro...
