Re: VF-10 IHI turbo only for automatic legacy’s

VF- 8/10/11/12 were all fitted to first gen legacys. Whereas the TD04 and TD05 turbos were fitted to the version 1 /2 ej20g based Impreza that also had the 90* inlet. When they switched to under-intake-manifold-turbo inlet in version 3, they came out with the new style td04 that we are all familiar...

Re: VF-10 IHI turbo only for automatic legacy’s

What I also find weird is that you compared the vf10 to a TD04, but the TD05 bolted right up, so maybe a vf10 is closer to a 14g TD05

Re: VF-10 IHI turbo only for automatic legacy’s

I can't find that site that has all the scanned Japanese brochures. Anyway, the vf10 is slightly larger than the VF11, about the same as a TD04, so going from that to a td05 will be a ton of fun. I’ve had it swapped over for a couple weeks now, lots of lag, but all around great turbo. Sent from my ...

Re: VF-10 IHI turbo only for automatic legacy’s

USDM legacys got the VF11 on either transmission. You positive that turbo's been on your engine for the last 25 years? And if so, is that engine original to the car? I have a feeling that the auto turbo cars suffered less abuse over time. Certainly their cranks don't have nearly the amount of in/ou...

VF-10 IHI turbo only for automatic legacy’s

I’ve seen many threads saying the VF-10 turbo only come on automatic legacy’s, yet I own a manual 92’ Legacy GT that runs a VF-10. I figured this out after swapping it out for a TD05-16g. No clue why everyone says it only comes in the automatics, but it isn’t true. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2...

It’s a Japanese Legacy, not a US. They offered 2 tone on the Japanese models

Can’t find color code online for my 92 Legacy GT

I’m looking around for my color code online to see if I can find the name of my body color. It is a 2 tone but still only had one color code. Does any one know what the color is called or know where I can find it? The color code is 256, I’ll add a picture. Thanks https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...

Possible boost leak, loud whining sound coming from turbo

Sup guys, a very loud whining is coming from my turbo, at idle there is no noise at all, but once it starts providing boost a loud whine comes from it. The level of whine is changed by how much throttle I give it. I have sprayed soapy water all over the thing but can’t seem to find any leaks. Any he...

Re: Emblems for 1st gen Legacy GT?

You checked the 1992 Liberty FSM? It me some digging when I looked. If you have the correct part number, check on partsouq.com and japanparts.com The US dealers won't be able to order the foreign part unless it's the same as the USDM 1994 Legacy GT badge (assuming it's still available). Ahh, found ...

Found the part number, but the parts catalogue still doesn't have the number for the GT 4WD emblem sadly, maybe they pop up sometime

Have you guys seen this website? Came across it when I was looking for emblem for my car. https://www.badgeofownership.com/UI/dist/ Kinda funny, its free even when you put all 48 of the "icons" on the badge. Sadly if you own a JDM Subaru, the VIN is too short so you might have to find the ...
