I purchased this car about 15 years ago. I found it in a wrecking yard, hence the salvage title. It wasn't wrecked. It was there because of an engine noise. There were 2 models. 4 cylinder and 6. My car has the 2.7 liter 6 cylinder H motor. The owner was told it would cost more money than it was worth to repair. It had 75,000 mile on it. I bought it and replaced the timing belts. The noise was just lifter noise due to low oil. The factory repair manual states that if the engine is low on oil, the lifters will chatter. I drove it for a few years and sold it to my sister-in-law. She drove it for a few years and sold it to her son. He drove it for a few years and bought a new truck. It sat for a few years and I acquired it back. I painted it due to the paint fading. There never has been any rust. I live in the high desert of southern California. I replaced the A.C. compressor, alternator, clutch cable, plugs and wires, air and fuel filters, and headlight motor (has flip up headlights). Car now has only 108,000 miles. Car runs and drives great. Everything works except I disconnected the automatic shoulder belt motor because the motor was getting weak. Now you must physically buckle the shoulder belt. The inside pieces that cover the side mirrors are missing. The passenger seat has a small cigarette burn and a few stains. There are no rips or tears. The tires still have at least half of their tread life left. Cruise control, power windows and door locks, A.C., aftermarket stereo with Bluetooth and usb connectivity. Pre-wired for Powered subwoofer and amp. Car originally came with air suspension. Front air struts had leaks and air compressor was robbed, so I replaced the front struts with spring struts. Rear air struts are still on car and fillable in trunk.
This car was ahead of its time when built. This is the precursor to the WRX. It was replaced by the SVT. Please research this car on the Web. Car is 4 wheel drive with an air locker differential from the factory. Car is very quick and the interior is styled after the cockpit of a fighter jet. The 5 speed has a pistol grip shifter and the steering wheel and gauge pod move together as one when adjusted. Car is very unique. Car is not perfect, but in very good condition. Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions. Ron 661-618-9616 |

Subaru teasing new WRX S4 model ahead of Japanese debut
Fri, 25 Jul 2014The Subaru WRX range is growing just a little bit larger, at least in Japan, with the automaker's teasing announcement of a new version called the S4. Unfortunately, the company is keeping details about its latest all-wheel drive sport sedan a closely guarded secret for the moment.
From what we can glean, it appears that the S4 might be a more luxurious take on the WRX. According to the release, the name stands for the four qualities that Subaru wants the sedan to have: "'Sports performance', 'Safety performance', 'Smart driving' and 'Sophisticated feel.'" As part of this focus, the car comes with the company's EyeSight camera system. Thankfully, we don't have too long to wait to find out what all of the buzz words actually mean because Subaru is unveiling the S4 on August 25 in Japan.
The automaker also launched a teaser website for the S4 that you can cheek out, here, but at the moment it doesn't provide any more details about the new sport sedan. The site just has countdown until the August reveal. There's also no indication yet whether this potentially more premium WRX could make it US shores. Scroll down to read the Subaru's rather concise teaser for the upcoming S4.
Hi-po Toyota GT86 to get KERS?
Fri, 09 Nov 2012We happen to like the Toyota GT86 - and, it of course goes without saying that the same applies to the Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S, as well - just the way it is. Yes, that includes the standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder boxer engine and its 200 horsepower at 7,000 rpm.
That said, a little extra power never hurt anybody, right?
The most obvious way to add some punch to the GT86 would be with a turbocharger, and that has indeed long been rumored for an STI version of the BRZ. Will Toyota follow suit? According to Top Gear, the answer is no. Says GT86 chief engineer Tetsuya Tada, "I think 300bhp with a turbo and 200g/km of CO2 would be tasteless in this day and age. And a turbo would mean the loss of the GT86's uniqueness." Perhaps a bit harsh, but there you go.
Lexus, Mazda and Subaru top Consumer Reports Brand Report Cards
Tue, 26 Feb 2013A revised methodology in devising its annual Car Brand Report Cards has seen Consumer Reports award Lexus its top overall ranking for 2013. For the first time ever, the institute broke out individual brands from their larger corporate umbrellas, meaning car makers like Lexus and Scion were judged independently from parent company Toyota. That strategy worked out well for Lexus, as the luxury brand earned a top report card score of 79 for the 2013 model year.
The institute has recommended every one of the Lexus models it has tested to date, and said that the company's products won out thanks to "a foundation of plush and very reliable vehicles."
Meanwhile, Mazda and Subaru tied for the second-highest scoring report cars, with scores of 76. Subaru earned praised for sporting models like the BRZ, which CR testers apparently had a lot of fun driving (naturally), while the Mazda products were lauded for their blend of practicality, sportiness and efficiency. Both of the Japanese brands offered good handling, fuel economy and versatility, said Consumer Reports.
