ChefRacer Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I think the real question is, if chuck norris worked on your spec b, how much HP could he make with just a tune? Spec B stage Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pnmid Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 The 5th Gen has grown on me, but the only way I'd replace my Gen4 with one is if it were a Outback 3.6R, lowered with an exhaust. I'd miss the boost though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
09Pegasus Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 If I had the choice, I'd choose the 4th again any day. The 5th looks like a camry.. The 4th just looks fast sitting still.... Like Chuck Norris... LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derp Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Chuck Norris doesn't look fast sitting still... he looks terrifying. I could suck start a snow blower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosAngelesLGT Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Replacing a 4thG with a 5thG is like replacing Chuck Norris with his large, ass kicking mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcglups Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Not to hijack the thread, but given that the relative comparison of the 4thG to the 5thG, when do you think we will see reasonably firm information about the 6th generation legacy? Presuming that it will be onsale in the US in the Summer of 2014, is it fair to think that in the Summer of 2013 that we should know solid information about the 6thG?

StoplightAssassin Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Fact, rumor, speculation? Bit of all three? All-New Subaru WRX: What to Expect (Motor Trend, Feb. 6, 2012) From the article: Senior staffers laid out roadmap though 2015 for potential investors. New models: 2011: (completed) all-new Impreza2012: BRZ and Forester2013: Exiga minivan2014: all-new WRX and a brand new sport wagon2015: all-new Legacy New tech: Stage 1: (completed) DI 2.0L for BRZStage 2: DI turbo variant of 2.0L FA20Stage 3: High-powered H4 turbo for new WRX. Capacity not final. Source says they're leaning towards 1.6L turbo based on FA20, w/ lean-burn tech. Expected (rumored?) 3-door hatch and sedan for new WRX. Rumored electric feature on new turbo to improve efficiency, eliminate lag. Reaction - No mention of the (new) XV? I didn't think the new Forester was arriving this year. Unless they mean production starts this year, and we see it launch early next year.Is Exiga coming to U.S., or just a new version for Japan and Australia?I guess the "brand new sport wagon" is based on the Advanced Tourer concept.Has a 3-door WRX been in the rumor mill lately?

I'd miss the boost though. I like the 3.6R's... especially b/c they take regular fuel. Too bad you can't get them with a manual though. That is a deal breaker for me!

__raj Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I love our LGT wagon. However the room of the 5th generation is so much more pleasant as a car and especially rear egress with loading kids. However the 5th generation feels so cheap in look and feel compared to 4th generation. The 4th generation Legacy is an anomaly for Subaru, a good looking car interior and exterior.

Mega Users seabass07 Posted February 15, 2012 Mega Users Share Posted February 15, 2012 At this rate, the 2015 legacy will be a crossover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChefRacer Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 ^I sure as hell hope not. Subaru is getting entirely too SUV to be Subaru. This is the company that as far as I'm concerned has always been the ANTI-SUV, the forrester was always the crossover for people who didn't want an suv, now it is an suv. The outback was always a sedan with a bit more room and ground clearance, now thats an suv too. If they start making any more suvs and they don't come out with another actual sport wagon(meaning a proper manual transmission option), not a crossover, then this will most likely be the last Subaru that I will ever own. :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChefRacer Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 I'm just wondering why nobody has made a kit to convert a 4G setup to the 5th gen turbo location, the newer location makes alot more sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosAngelesLGT Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Because it would make more sense to dump money going rotated than it would to go 5thG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoplightAssassin Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 Because it would make more sense to dump money going rotated than it would to go 5thG. Not necessarily. I know I have no want of a huge rotated Subaru, but a super fast spooling, low end torquey sombitch is awesome. Look at all those guys running JDM twinscrolls. They don't do it for the top end.
