Mrlantra Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 I'm not in the states but real close to you guys. I just got a 2001 legacy GT wagon, the JDM 2.0 twin turbo. Now for the questions since the manual is in japanese! what is the recomended oil for this baby? I am using castrol syntec 5w50 in it now due to availability of oils ( only castrol and local ilk! ) but I'm sure this is not exactly the right stuff. Also brake and auto tranny fluids! Next where in hell can I get exterior mods for this car outside Japan or Australia! a simple little roof spoiler lets say? ( like the JDM STI legacy wagon spoiler not the lil bitsy USA one ) Also do the front strut bars fit the JDM models with that intercooler? Sorry for sounding like a noob but I can't seem to find this basic stuff online in any language I can read ( IE english lol ) and since I'm a newbie in here. BTW does anyone know if wrx/sti intercoolers fit the JDM legacy twin turbos? thats high on my list of mods unless I can find AVO intercoolers at a decent price. Thansk for your time guys.

axis008 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 Have you checked out LegacyCentral? http://bbs.legacycentral.org/ They probably will be your best source for your generation Legacy (hopefully JDM too). -ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrlantra Posted February 27, 2005 Author Share Posted February 27, 2005 Actually a simple manual in english will do wonders to start, but a shop repair manuaL will be even better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTB Limited Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Oil, fully sythetic, 10/50-60w, go for a good named brand. 5w is too thin for your warm climate In the UK we get Castrol 10/60w RS. Std dot4 brake fluid is fine, also as long as the trans fluid is a good make, std spec is fine, though an aux cooler is a good idea. Exterior bits, Japan and Oz are really the only places (same probs for me) Try http://www.irs.co.jp excellent service, used them a few times for parts. Strut braces will be model specific. AFAIK wrx/sti intercoolers will not fit. So start saving the money, AVO ones are good. Though if you know an intercooler specialist, might be woth getting a quote. 'Bablefish' on the web can translate, though you need to scan/cut n paste the text.
