1988 Subaru Xt6 4 Wheel Drive on 2040-cars
Lancaster, California, United States
|
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 |

2017 Subaru BRZ gets more power, optional Performance Pack
Fri, May 27 2016Most of the recent action with Toyobaru sports cars has centered around the Toyota side, which saw the Scion FR-S replaced by the updated and rebranded 2017 Toyota 86 for our market. Now, Subaru's version of the rear-drive coupe is getting a similar set of updates. It gets to keep its name, though. Like its Toyota-badged twin, the BRZ sees some engine updates – changes to the shared 2.0-liter, flat-four's internals are aimed at reducing friction. A new aluminum intake and a redesigned exhaust bump output up from 200 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque to 205 ponies and 156 lb-ft on manual-transmission models. To go along with that, the manual's final-drive ratio has been changed from 4.1:1 to 4.3:1, so there should be an improvement in acceleration. (Incidentally, this must have been Toyota meant when it said the 86 gets different manual gear ratios for 2017.) It's not the turbocharged engine some have been craving, but we can all agree that a little extra output is better than none. Those paying for the automatic transmission are left out, though. The Subaru has also gotten a small set of suspension updates. There are new springs and dampers, a larger rear sway bar, and some adjustments to structural braces to increase rigidity, so nothing too dramatic. Subaru has reprogrammed the stability-control system to allow drivers more freedom, which has led to a showy rebranding of the Sport mode to a new Track setting. A new option is the Performance Package, which includes Brembo brakes with upsized rotors fore and aft, new Sachs-branded shocks, and black 17-inch wheels. The Performance Pack is only available on Limited models with a manual transmission, further strengthening the argument against the auto. The Performance Pack also helps differentiate the Subie from its Toyota pal, as those items aren't available on the 86. There are some subtle aesthetic changes too, similar to those on the 86. (Noticing a pattern?) Subaru restyled the front and rear fascias, and added LED lamps at all four corners. Limited models come with a new 4.2-inch LCD display that sits to the right of the tachometer; in addition to mechanical info like oil temp, water temp, and battery voltage, it can show a G meter, a steering-angle indicator, gas/brake meters, and a stopwatch. The 2017 BRZ Premium and Limited will hit dealers in September. You'll have to wait until winter of 2017 to get your hands on a car equipped with the Performance Pack.
Subaru WRX hatchback mule spotted
Tue, 02 Sep 2014Despite on-again, off-again rumors, this latest set of spy shots seems to indicate that yes, a five-door Subaru WRX is indeed in the works. Subtlety is key with this test mule, but there are clear bits of evidence that indicate a hotter hatchback is what's being developed here.
First, notice the WRX-spec front fascia grafted onto this ordinary-looking Impreza hatch. From there, we can clearly see the tiny bit of added width - most obvious on the roof and at the rear, near the fuel door and taillamps. And of course, let's not forget about that bulge in the hood, consisting of a metal panel that covers the hood scoop and can apparently be removed thanks to a series of screws, according to our spies. The WRX's more robust exhaust and larger wheel/tire package have not been added to this mule, though we're told that this is commonplace for Subaru prototypes - those bits should be added on as the car's development progresses.
We fully expect a WRX hatchback to be, well, just that - mechanically, it should be identical to the sedan brethren, though our spies indicate that Subaru could be testing an updated version of the WRX-spec boxer engine. Of course, there's always a chance that this could be something else entirely, given the on-and-off reports of the five-door 'Rex's existence in the first place...
