'200k service' (re)build thread
NORULZleggy replied to willisdaye's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Do all the miner stuff yourself that you can, and maybe some major things. I would get the STI 6MT and add DCCD control. Yes it will cost you but if you plan on keeping it do it right. You can do split case 6MT or other versions but a Solid 04-05 STI 6MT is strong. Yes it will cost but it's worth it. Save you money and search around and you can still find deals. -
Rough idle driving me nuts
NORULZleggy replied to Driveway's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Did you replace the plugs yet??? I saw you said you regaped them, but I had a 2008 N/A and had issues bad idle and it was the plugs. I got OEM plugs and wires, and the problem went away. I never had a problem with injectors at all. -
suspension idiocy
NORULZleggy replied to pleiadesfella's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
I have run a set of ISC coilovers for a long time. 32 way adjustable (I have no clue where or how to do all those adjustments), fully rebuildable, and lifetime warranty. I have yet to have a single problem out of them. there are so very good set that do not cost you 2500-4000. Mine cost about 1300 and I have a subie shop install them. I also miss my 800 dollar Tein coilovers. Never had one issue with those and the car drove very well. The key is to make sure you leave a decent wheel gap and not try and tuck tire. The ride will be better than stock if you get pillow ball mounts. -
Takeda and Perrin

if you do it be careful, these cars need a tune when you mess with the air flow. -

I do not know how many miles you have , but get to a performance subie shop and get fresh fluid in there. -
2023 Subaru Legacy Maintenance Items
NORULZleggy replied to Catanzaro's topic in Seventh Generation Legacy (2020 - )
Change the oil every 5k with a great filter (I personally use Amsoil filters and oil for the past 12 years), order a nice AEM Dryflow engine and cabin filter that you can clean (I use these also), and put back in. Take out that drain plug and get an EZ drain valve, so your oil change takes 6 mins including filter change. These cars are tuff and these intervals are to get the dealer money. At 80k you can change out all fluids. Brake, diffs, and CVT. I go to a Subaru performance shop anytime I need big work done. If the car is running good no reason to change stuff at 30k. Brakes you can do with hand tools, so get those hands dirty. -
Official Brilliant Silver Thread Volume 2
NORULZleggy replied to SBT's topic in Legacy Photos (2005-2009)
Here is my baby. She sees the garage most of the time because I am so busy. I get her out few times a week. Love that car, it's a full rebuild and has tons of parts. big pump, 1000cc injectors, rails, GT-25 turbo (Custon built VF52), that list goes on for days. -
Sheeehs 4 stacks. Love to have them but want STI 6MT more.

TOWING DAMAGE HELP
NORULZleggy replied to SoCalSubie09's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Naw you need them to fix it. Go back to them and talk to the owner. I understand it was their job to tow, but they have to do it and not damage the car. I used a dolly for the rear wheel or hooked it up and they could have charged you. Now they need to pay. Your full STI drivetrain and trans is messed up now. -
TOWING DAMAGE HELP
NORULZleggy replied to SoCalSubie09's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
What tow driver is such a moron to not know it was AWD lol. -
Has this been updated or is it non-green? If non-green let me know.

Looking for a new brand of oil. Maybe.
NORULZleggy replied to dcgt05's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Still running Amsoil 5-40 for the past 10 years. Cars are great and i will stick with it. -
Repleace all your coil packs from Rock auto. Intermotor is that brand i used and I swear they are the OEM without subaru stampped on them.

Just get some used Brembo's with decent pads . I never track mine and it sits most of the time lol. When I do get it out, I use those brakes and I love the Brembo upgrade. Got mine for 300 bucks used and did the rebuild kit from Brembo and they are solid. Stocks with a DBA rotor and very nice pads work well also.
