Prodrive Rally Legacy

Post by QueensNYgtsu »

Hello, I am new to the BBS forum but not new to subbies and various automotive/motorcycle forums. Anyways I am absolutely obsessed with building an uber legacy ss rally/street ride/ice race. Anyone know where I can get more info on the ole' Prodrive Legacy and the setup?

best wishes

There's a documentary called "The Subaru Impreza Story" which has long interviews with the prodrive bosses.

If you want it to look like the prodrive equipped Rothmans legacy, that shouldn't be too expensive, but if I remember right, in the documentary, they mention that the car cost them £200k in r&d, labor and parts (including the £30k transmission).

You could also ask prodrive directly

Good luck and keep us updated.

prodrive legacy would have to be a source for inspiration then, I suppose lol. For the paint job.

Will checkout everything you mentioned above.

If you're talking about where the shock attaches with 2 bolts to the upright, the answer is 65mm.
