2005 Subaru Legacy GT wagon for sale. Selling because I work remotely now and don't drive it enough to justify the hassle of storing it. Looking for $7,500 OBO.

Long block was assembled at Wicked Matt in Rhode Island for a different car/owner in 2018, it currently has ~25k miles on it. ~3k miles on most other mods, including FP Green turbo and full supporting mods. Pro tuned by Matt Miner at 405whp/355wtq on 93. Engine tested healthy in December 2021, all cylinders were between 125-130psi and all under 5% leakdown

Driveline: 04 STI 6mt (with OEM GR STI shift linkage), Spec B driveshaft, lower mileage JDM STI R180 rear differential, new Spec B rear axles. New ACT XTSS clutch with resurfaced OEM STI flywheel

Exhaust: catted CNT downpipe, 3" Nameless resonated catback with factory mufflers. Pretty quiet when cruising and looks OEM

Cons:
- Has rust on driver's rear quarter, under the doors, and on the undercarriage. Paint is faded
- Steering rack has a slow leak
- Front struts are leaking

Feel free to PM for more details or with any questions. No test drives without cash in hand. Sold as-is/as-seen, no warranty etc. Can bring to a local shop for a PPI if requested. Thanks for looking!

Maybe its just me, but if the body was in better shape (bumpers) and the shifter boot was there. It might get more interest...

 

Nice power for a mustang dyno,  must be fun to drive.

305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD).  CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

It's definitely seen better days cosmetically- I bought it in 2015 with the scuffed bumpers and faded paint, but could never justify a full repaint without going over the whole chassis to remove all of the rust, it just didn't seem worth it to me for a car of this age and with this mileage.

Initially I wanted to find a Spec B 6mt shift boot/surround and OEM knob for the OEM+ look. Removing the non-fitting 5mt boot was supposed to be a temporary fix, but a company like Redline could probably make a custom boot to work with the 6mt reverse lockout in the 5mt shifter surround if a future owner wanted.

This setup is a lot of fun and reminiscent of an old-school turbo car, calm and collected around town but will really put you back in your seat around 4000RPM. I'm certainly going to miss it

I'm interested in the drivetrain if you decide to part out. Maybe the turbo and supporting mods too. 

Hoping to either have the car sold or begin parting it out sometime in July. If it comes to parting it out, I'll reach out around then

GLWS!!! 

Similar cars (5MT, but less rust) in the mid-atlantic are selling for <1/2 current asking price.  Just saying.  Car is probably fun to drive, but numbers are inflated.  I see shenanigans in the dyno set up.  Probably bumped the numbers 50whp. 

Its all about finding the right buyer.  Some cars go for far more than I think they are worth.
