So, i bought a 97 OBS....with a 22T in it

Post by MikeyMeyagi »

guy on my local forum was selling it, figured it would be a good car to return to stock and sell. Its got a 22T block, Obs heads, custom turbo kit w a .50 trim garrett, a spearco tmic, rrfpr, timing controller, tial wg, and apexi afc....all for a mere $1000. the trans makes alot of bad noises, so that will need replacement too. ive got a nice ej18 to put in the car, and i think ive got the turbo kit sold too.... pretty good deal if i can find a cheap 5mt to stick in the car

What color?

That kinda sounds like Morgie's old car.

Dang, i would just keep it. I've been wanting an osb for a while. Make it look like an STI. That would be hot. Wish i could find a deal like that around here. It would be my 5th subaru haha

OBS or 5-doors are the only things I seem to find around here. Was looking for a couple months for an OBD2 2.2 5MT either sedan or coupe (a 5-door wouldn't work) and couldn't find anything. Doesn't matter now as I changed my mind again.
