hello folks,

Not posted much here at all.
I'm from the Highlands of Scotland in the UK (Beside the loch ness monster) and i own a Gen 1 Legacy GT turbo wagon, which i bought back in April with a failing automatic box.

Through use of this website alone, i (me, a friend and a cold garage floor) have managed to perform a 5MT conversion - and it's working perfectly. Today was it's maiden voyage..

I'd just like to extend my thanks to everyone who ever posted and made documentation (ECU pinouts etc) with regard to the conversion. The search facility on the site works perfectly, and the information contained within, is brilliant. Without it, my task would have been 10x more difficult.

Thanks to you lot, my legacy now has a new lease of life (and considering there is 15" of snow outside, its even better)

Keep up the good work...
Cheers!

Brendan :)
