15+ wrx trans is in and all seems very good. Collecting a few more bits and will be transplanting this fall. Definitely excited to get her up and running again. [ATTACH]296606[/ATTACH][ATTACH]296607[/ATTACH][ATTACH]296608[/ATTACH] Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

One of many reasons im reviving my leggy. Transmission will be arriving tomorrow. But wont get to wrenching until it cools down at least. In the meantime I will collect/order parts.

Sounds good Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

Did any of you feel that the verus fork and pivot ball be overkill along with tsk snout? I'm only considering to get them all just because I had my fork give up on my when i had southbend stage 3 daily clutch and wouldn't want to take it apart just for broken fork or damaged snout Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

That's just it...hondas are all around lol. Besides if I did to a tsx swap on my 07 accord sedan it would be different. It's cheaper and easy to maintain. I like surprising other drivers. Might even do it when leggy is back together. Gotta love the rarity of the leggy though. I think that's what makes me want to get it up and running. Too many WRXs and STIs here by me. Keeping the legacy alive would be sweet Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

I'll take a whack at it. Miss driving her and see jaws drop when EWG goes off Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

^oh no rhino^ hopefully it goes smooth and sliding it will be easy enough to install new flywheel. Well, I just went ahead and purchased a 15+ wrx transmission just now. :eek:Hopefully all goes well. After getting a new battery and turning her over, I realized how much I miss this car, and plan on giving it all the love necessary to daily it again. It was either TSX/K swap my honda accord or give love to the leggy. The leggy deserves a new life lol

or get lucky and find a Gimmick Motorsports catback https://www.drivenbystyle.com/2005-2008-subaru-legacy-2-5l-gt-only-stainless-steel-catback-exhaust-system-37368.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIjd_zqLOh9wIVkz-tBh1KBAWJEAQYASABEgLbf_D_BwE

you can ask this guy? he states no drone on highway

I had an 09 Legacy SE that was a lemon...coworkers mom was working at SOA and I was able to find a really low mileage 08 LGT in 2009 and has 145k miles. Does that count? lol

dang i need facebook lol

and here im thinkin 1700 on ebay is a steal. I need to get on Facebook Marketplace so I can source one local for cheap. Glad I didnt accept offer. Whew...

Beauty...enjoy!! I dig the red cluster

also need the average american weight increase graph im guilty. The 19 in covid is the 19lbs gained since all drive thrus are in their golden era as the little mom and pop shops shut down

My guess is under 400 is safe? I looked up a few nasioc threads already. I'm going to pull the trigger on one of these trans any day now myself. Seems good enough to have some more fun in the leggy. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

I am no photochopper by no means lol. I barely transferred my pics from my cell phone to my PC hahahaha.

if someone wants to mess around...this is the best pic i have when i installed it. would be sweet if the bolts do line up.

once i source one..ill chime back in here to see if my blast plates do transfer over. im not in a rush to get my car back on the road but sure am excited to see how this pans out now.

id be sitting right at 400whp so ill have to research more 15+wrxs from this gen and see how well the trans is holding up

great work here man! You may have inspired me to do this to my tired 5 speed lol. I dont see myself selling off my car just yet and had turned down a couple offers on offerup.

warmed her up today after 1 month sitting. Drove it around 2 laps and keep asking myself why did I even post on offerup? I did get 1 serious potential buyer. If it doesnt sell by next black friday, itll be on a mission to get new shortblock, and 6 speed swap. Meanwhile, I will test drive a new honda civic hatchback, as I get older, i need something easy to load/unload my bowling equipment

I think the time has come... https://offerup.com/item/detail/1283609065?q=2008+subaru+legacy&cid=5.1

Warmed her up, drove her around and did about 4 laps around the empty busy streets after my daughters swimming class and Dirty Penny still getting dirty screaming her ewg pipes as I smile with a big grin over and over. There was a new Acura TLX type S that was about to roll up next to me, but heard the EWG and stayed back On that note, I may put a feeler/for sale ad really soon. I feel sad to even post this but since turning 40 and having an Accord, I kinda like the slow paced and quieter life. My 5 year old daughter loved my Subie but we shall see what is to come. 6 speed swap and shortblock or a new car is in play for sure.

on my 08 leggy for 8+ years IIRC and on my 07 Honda Accord 2+years was on 11 Legacy for 7+ years all with no issues
