1990 Japanese Legacy Touring Wagon Brochure

Post by DLC »

I got this years and years ago, but finally got around to using a large-format scanner to scan it in, as the brochure is probably nearly Legal size and didn't fit in any other scanner.

This includes the brochure itself, and actual price quote, the price list brochure and a huge accessories book for both the Wagon and Sedan bodies.

The full images are HUGE, but if you can read Kanji, they're in a resolution and quality that make it very easy to read.

If there are part numbers, well, I guess you can always try. The radio upgrades, seat coverings and quirky things like the pod are just plain cool. We never had anything near that level of customization here.

There are some part numbers in there... IMG035 has some.

Pretty much the whole world uses Arabic numbers, the East included. So the part numbers are still in the same format as ours.

As far as availability... don't even bother, honestly. Regardless of the fact that those are JDM parts (I just tried a couple part #s and none of them are recognized to begin with)... accessories go obsolete pretty quick. There's accessories for early 2000-era USDM Subarus that are already NLA.

Yeah, that's a nice wheel. An aftermarket sports wheel transforms the road feel in these cars. I guess Japan was smart enough to do that from the beginning.

That brochure is stunning!

My JDM 2 litre GT turbo wagon has some of the stuff shown in the brochure, including the MOMO steering wheel. Mine is a GT S2, and has stuff like electrically operated folding exterior mirrors with heated glass elements, and a 10-stack CD changer mounted in the rear in such a way that it looks like a factory accessory. It also came with a matching double DIN head-deck which unfortunately didn't work (but has since been replaced with another which does!). It has sport seats upholstered in a suede-like fabric, and had a set of 15 inch BBS forged alloys with a cross-spoke pattern.

I like the fact that Subaru was (I believe) the first Japanese car manufacturer to use Euro-sourced products on its vehicles, such as Recaro seats, Bilstein suspension, BBS wheels, Miichelin tyres and MOMO steering wheels. Many of the photos in the brochure featured above were shot in France too (Paris licence plates), reinforcing the euro connections.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing the brochure.

Glad you guys like this stuff.

You might have noticed that I have a lot of other brochures up there. As far as I know I've got everything scanned in, but in some cases the resolution is kinda low. This is because, at the time, I had 50MB of space. Space and bandwidth are no longer an issue.

Which, if any, would you like to see rescanned?
