Post by kaetraux »

what do you guys think about a legacy with the 3l h6 in it and converting it to RWD?

would the conversion just be for straight lining or what?
AWD!! is more important for me...

Where you going to get a RWD tranny that bolts right up to a H6?

But, I mean, why would someone want a RWD Subaru? I'd take AWD with LSD over one every day....

Weld center diff, remove front diff. RWD done. RWD is awesome.

If it's not positraction, I don't want it. (After driving my Vette's Positraction, I'll never drive a RWD without it)

There is an old legacy somewhere in denver with the H6 but its awd. From what i understand, it wasn't very easy.

I'd heard of someone who swapped an EZ30 into his 94 Impreza...that must've been hard.

Its probably very doable, but time-consuming :?

wow, but his taste in styling isn't really what I would want :?

That engine is sick though.

PHATSuby (or subie, w/e) on Nasioc is doing the same thing with his Legacy :)

yea, the style looks odd, and the auto transmission (ie. the tranny cooler behind the Intake manifold) make it kinda lame, well as lame as a twin turboed h6 could possibly get...lol
stupid electrical work...
