1993 Subaru Legacy Sport Sedan (factory 2.2L turbo) AWD
converted to 5 speed with WRX seats swapped in. Has like 190k but runs awesome and everything works. Fun little DD. Was $2500, needs a tie rod and some tires. I wanna put a real cd player in it as well.

Should be my new DD and winter car for the days the Vette isn't ideal to drive. I really dig this car, so endearing haha.

Until people realize closed deck really doesn't do much for you.

Looks like a fun little thing - I need a beater coming shortly here...

Air to Water Intercooler.

Little black reserviour where a normal WRX or STi Top Mount Intercooler would be.

We thought it was non-intercooled, I'll have to look haha.

Just did some research. The 2.2 was NOT intercooled.
The 2.0 from other markets WAS.

The forum LegacyGt.com has info on putting the JDM (lol) AWIC setup on USDM cars

I think I'll just put a top mount, even thats a maybe as its just the DD.
I did order stereo stuff tho, I wanna fix the tie rod and random fast-blinking left blinker (not the bulbs or fuses, probably the switch itself), put on new tires (currents are bald) and then just drive it.

I have an 06 WRX TMIC and a set of 2.2L heads (complete) that came with it... no idea what the heads will get me but they're for sale... what do I ask for em?

I don't have a clue what those are worth. Sorry.
GL with the car though. Take care of it & it'll take care of you.

Incidentally, I have a turbo for that car. I was gonna run it on my diesel sub compact tractor..... but figured I should leave ONE of my vehicles alone. :lol:

120k on it. LMK if you want a spare. ZERO shaft play. :)
