Oh geez, it was inevitable

I got a Subaru, just like half the people I know haha. I have kinda been wanting a subaru for a while, just decided to wait for a decent deal.

Its a 92 Legacy Turbo auto, paid $400 can, my intention is rally/winter/dd.

no mods really, just power mode override, some I-pikes, mbc, silencer delete, etc

And my Nissan powered Volvo

That's a sweet deal you got there. What's the switches do? One's an auto transmission "power mode" thing, right? Cool volvo, what rims are those?

need more details on the volvo!! SR20?

DevC · Post by **DevC** » Tue Dec 08, 2009 8:05 pm

Thank you

Yeah, its an sr20det redtop, transmission, nissan wiring harness, stock welded rear diff, custom driveshaft, coilover kits. Motor is basicly stock except for the front mount, exhaust and cone filter and a bit more boost.

The power mode overide is the "party mode" switch and the lock switch was an attempt to make the center diff 50/50 on demand, haven't finished that yet.

Damn you, just when i think i've shaken the volvo bug you managed to bring it right back. Thanks a lot! That thing is nasty! I've already done an 850 and a 740, a 240 might be next! (Subie is cool too btw)

Well my Legacy has had some work done to it, mainly maintnance and repairs, but thats boring so heres some pics of the mods LOL

Little history on the car is that it was once a taxi haha, she is still ticking strong and reliable as hell at 441,000KM's(274,000miles)

It's got some new fenders from the j/y rattle can'd white/1 and a half coils cut of each corner.

03 WRX hood scoop

Lip from home depot

Boost gauge and narrow band a/f gauges I had laying around

And my favorite is a complete 5-speed swap from a 91 Legacy waiting to go in.

I'm digging the volvo! I want to SR something, but I'm thinking an e30

DevC · Post by **DevC** » Mon Nov 15, 2010 11:10 pm

Well, have had the car a year now, got some paint, saab topmount, skidplate, gr2's and 459,000kms on it now.

All the turbo legacys in your town? Do they grow on trees up there? Haha. To this day I have yet to see another turbo legacy on the streets.

Sweet car you got there. I like the volvo too.

Dude the blue looks good! You are turning yours into exactly what I am, winter/rally car

. I want to get a roll cage done first before I really start giving it at rally events. Hopefully bmxkelowna can help me out with that because his cage is wicked.

MikeyMeyagi · Post by **MikeyMeyagi** » Mon Mar 14, 2011 5:51 am

that volvo is fucking sick. Dammit i miss mine, i wish i had done a 1jz or an rb instead of the stupid 5.0 ford junk i used instead. SR20 is def a sweet choice, lots of aftermarket support, and a damn good engine. that must be a ton of fun to drive!

DevC · Post by **DevC** » Mon Mar 14, 2011 7:25 am

Thanks, the Volvos had alot of changes since the original post, its evolved alot, I sold the sr out of it and am putting together a volvo motor, which will put out alot more then the SR.

Can thank bmxkelowna for the rear bumper mod(gansta wall tap lol)

bmxkelowna · Post by **bmxkelowna** » Mon Mar 14, 2011 7:29 am

sorry dev!

Big white rally snow-x next year, you better be there!!!!!!!

On Dec 5th I think.

porkchop · Post by **porkchop** » Mon Mar 14, 2011 1:46 pm

Both of these cars are really really cool!

And the wheels on the legacy in the first pics are a chrysler daytona wheel. SO heavy. my friend had a set on a neon.

zagarus · Post by **zagarus** » Mon Mar 14, 2011 4:59 pm

I will definitely goto the big white rally-x this year. Also want to do the Thunderbird rally. Man I just want to start participatiing in rally events in general! But I reeeeeeally want a cage first.

DevC · Post by **DevC** » Fri Apr 22, 2011 3:18 am

Summers, gotta ditch them and go to stockers for summer cause these things are too heavy.

This is obviously the car on the top of my inspiration list.

Florin1 · Post by **Florin1** » Fri Apr 22, 2011 3:38 am

I want more info on the big white rally-x! That sounds like fun! Where and when is it?
Oh, and keep photos coming on both cars. Love the volvo. Any videos of it when it had the sr20?
