Draco-REX Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 Sorry, I'm coming into this late. Are you keeping the Subaru transmission and AWD? And if so, the stock 5 speed, or upgrading to the bombproof STI 6 speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexxdj1 Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I did, It sounds like a case of quality vs. quanity. I would NEVER consider driving an american Car, much less a buick.

Furthermore, this Legacy thing is a pitstop between a 911 after Law school. It's clear to see your not a car guy, he's doing this because he can. It's great that your going to Law School. If you only learn one thing from this, remember, not everybody likes to follow the mainstream. People have the right to do this if they want to. As you become a lawyer, please remember that. Don't be one of those people that think we all should conform to the liberals wishes of what they think we all should drive. Off my soap box now, sorry for the rant Frank. 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it.

If you don't like the idea of owning a product built by your fellow Americans then do us all a favor and GTFO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lgtftw Posted October 13, 2010 Share Posted October 13, 2010 LOL, Alex should should check the sticker on his quarter window, I bet it'll be the first time he sees the "Team built in Indiana" sticker. Anyway, I've been following this thread for a while now, even the other thread where the engine got a different turbo, I must say, Frank, you're doing great work, keep it up, this is motivating.
