Just got mine, as good as the last. Subarutex got a whole section for him, including a part about the toyota that flipped

. And our very own Subaru_Nation555 got a section in the readers rides. Grats to him on being the first legacy thrown in there, even if the writers did give a bunch of misinformation about the car. Overall, another good issue.

I saw it too, way to go Subaru_Nation555. How are those 160ft-lbs of torque treating you?

I got mine last night. Good stuff. A little weak on the article side (well, make that really weak

). But they are definitely headed in the right direction.

An article suggestion would be to do a break down of the history of USDM Subarus. Explain EA81's, EA82's and their bodies. Then the EJ18, EJ20, EJ22, EJ25 along with their turbocharged variants in the Legacy/Impreza/Outback lineup. That way I can at least be sure that THEY know what they are talking about.

P.S. - The offroad article was awesome. But they sooooo needed to talk about that Hatch and the Brat. With more pics of the engine, drivetrain, etc..

Thanks guys. I actually havent had a chance to read the second edition, all the BN's near me are sold out. 160 lb-ft.

Other than the fact that it had 160hp/180ft-lbs when new in the US model designation, which details are your referring to?

The overseas Legacy RS's were 2.0L quad cam Air-water intercooled units.

We could have someone assemble a fact sheet on the 90-94 Legacy Turbo and the NA. So you guys can get started on the chassis/engine code breakdown for your next issue

Can I get a reference for the 2.0L info? I owned a '92 Turbo a few years back, and when I was obsessively researching it, I don't recall running into any info referencing a different sized block on the overseas Liberty. Not to say it's not true, I just don't recall seeing it.

FYI: Second edition hits B&N around the first of Jan.

The misinformation I was refering to was the tq, should be 181 Ft/Lbs, the boost, should be 8.7 PSI, the engine size, should be 2.0 as William already stated, and the model, It is only a Liberty in Continental Austrailia It's a Legacy everywhere else even New Zealand. Nothing too devastating

Almost all New gen Subaru Turbo's are 2.0L. The exceptions being the 22B and the new 2.5 turbo cars.
