Re: best match: automatic or standard ?
I have a Subaru turbo with vw auto trans and it is a treat to drive, the

Re: best match: automatic or standard ?
Is the auto tranny the original Vanagon transmission or have you replaced it with a beefier one?

Re: 92 legacy engine w/ 99K mi
Hi Gary,
I heard from a Subaru Specialist that in his opinion, the '92 was the sweetest year (FWIW). Also, just where are you ever going to find another 8 year old motor with less? Maybe 70K, but

Re: 92 legacy engine w/ 99K mi
Don't worry about it. AN 8 year old engine with 99k is still low mileage for a
Subaru. I owned a '90 Leagcy and put 250k (in 9 years) on it before I just got

92 legacy engine w/ 99K mi
Hello
I visited a local junk yard today and took a look at a 92 Legacy with 99K miles on it. I got what I believe was a very good price for all the parts I would need short of the KEP conversion kit.

Hi Tom:
Do you think that the yard (Aaron's Subaru) is now competent to do the job

Would you trust them to do it now, if it were you ordering the parts
