This reminds me of the time on a group drive in northern Maine a member with an 02 outback discoverd his new car was way rustier than he previously thought. http://i.imgur.com/01Ae7EK.jpg Luckily another member had a chain saw and some straps and came up with this clever solution http://i.imgur.com/...

It is definitely more difficult to work on than my legacy. According to the previous owner it has a jdm gen3 motor swap and made almost 300whp. It sounds amazing with the turbo spooling a couple feet away from your head haha.

I don't have any big updates with the car lately. I have been driving it a ton this summer and even with the conservative street tune it is an animal. I still plan on installing my aem meth kit and tune it to its fullest potential but I have been a little distracted lately by other projects. http://...

Time for another update. A lot has changed since the last time I was here. http://i.imgur.com/ZwLrNxZ.jpg I am now running a fpgreen turbo and have ditched the Robtune for a Hydra standalone ecu. Other changes include a nameless header, tial ewg, hks replica bov, new power steering setup, new alumin...

I was the hoon of the day last year. It totally made my day!

Anyone else recognize where the seats came from?

^ Love everything about this. I did the exact same thing with putting rs vents and a big scoop on the hood of my last sport sedan. Now I run a fmic an no scoop ( I like to be stealthy). It looks like you did a much better job than I did. Here is a pic of my car returning home from the Wicked Big Mee...

I emailed Jalopnik about their lack of love for the first gen Legacy and the video I included was featured as the hoon of the day!

just playing with the go pro some more

I have a 6 speed and matching r180 rear diff. I know it is still bad for my drivetrain but I can justify doing some random hooning now and then. Whats the point of building the car up if you don't drive it like a jackass sometimes?

I made a short video with the go pro. I know this is stupid but I am in the middle of nowhere and had just finished a 400+ mile trip without incident and I felt like it was warranted. Enjoy.

http://i.imgur.com/1kepnstl.jpg I Dyno'd the Legacy on Saturday at the local Subaru clubs annual meet at Granite State Dyno. I made 263whp at 17psi. I have gotten pretty comfortable with this power level and I already want more! I have been spending money like crazy on this stupid car lately so I n...

http://i.imgur.com/1o6KxePl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/CMVTxdgl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ZDhfbl8l.jpg The new paint job is done! I still need to install my rear door handles and RA mudflaps. My friend Joe painted this car in a small garage and did a damn thorough job over the the last week. All the rust ...

nope, changing it to my favorite Subaru color, Steel gray metallic. We are also fixing the minor rust with new metal, none of that bondo crap going on this car.

teaser pic, more coming soon after it is finished....

Went up the the White mountains and ran the Kanc fromt the Lincolnville side. Car ran flawlessly the entire day. Over 500 miles on it since the rebuild and I am still amazed at the performance on low boost. http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q146/urabusturbo/subie5_zpsbe4c81b3.jpeg http://i135.photo...

I am still breaking it in but with the higher compression motor and the updated Robtune it feels like a who...

Hey Matt! Good to see you joined. I expect great things for this car and look forward to reppin the old school scoobs with you around Maine this summer

the motor is back from the machine shop. It now has ACL bearings, CP pistons custom made, Eagle rods, slight overbore,polished crank. I cant wait to put it back together and put it in the car, I miss boost.

http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q146/urabusturbo/001-5.jpg I finally fixed the goofy stance with a set of BC coilovers. Also finally painted and installed the sport bumper and not rusty fenders from my old car. I am still waiting on the machine shop to finish building the motor but it should be ...

Those brakes look hott. Did you sand those chrome strips down really good and spray them with some primer or adhesive promoter first? Thanks! I sanded the chrome a bunch and used several lite coats of black wheel paint. i peeled the tape while it was somewhat tacky to avoid pulling flakes with the ...

Update! The 22t is currently at the machine shop getting acl bearings, eagle rods, and cp pistons. Mikeymeyagi and I plan to swap in the 6 speed before the motor is finished to make the most baller n/a 93 legacy ever. In the meantime I have put on my new Advan wheels I purchased from Mike. I also ha...
