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 |

Nissan exec Andy Palmer derides Toyobaru coupes as 'midlife crisis' cars
Mon, 28 Oct 2013Andy Palmer, Nissan's executive vice president, does not like the Scion FR-S or Subaru BRZ. To us, that's like saying you enjoy barbecuing puppies, but we'll let him slide, because his statements about the Toyobaru twins are much, much more than just idle trash talk.
Speaking to Motor Trend's Nate Martinez, Palmer said, "Do we have any competitors [in the small, rear-drive coupe segment]? Are you talking about the Subaru [BRZ]? It was a car designed for a 50-year-old. It's for a midlife crisis. That's not what we do." Strong words, but what followed was even better.
"Are you coming to the Tokyo Motor Show? You'll see the answer to the midlife crisis. Except it won't be for the midlife crisis." So, if you were wondering whether Nissan is working on a competitor to the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ, the answer seems to be a resounding "yes."
2016 Subaru Outback, Legacy recalled for driveshaft problem
Tue, Dec 15 2015The Basics: Subaru is recalling 3,251 examples of the 2016 Legacy built between Oct. 24, 2015, and Nov. 16 2015, and the 2016 Outback manufactured between Oct. 24, 2015, and Nov. 17, 2015. The Problem: The driveshaft could separate from the rear differential because the securing nuts aren't tight enough. If this happens, the driveshaft could hit the gas tank, leading to a fuel leak. Injuries/Deaths: Subaru spokesperson Michael McHale confirms to Autoblog there are no reports of accidents, injuries, or fires. The fix: Subaru dealers will inspect the nuts and tighten or replace them as necessary. If you own one: Subaru expected the recall to begin on December 10, so owners should receive notification very soon.

Due to the improper tightening of the securing nuts, the drive shaft may separate from the rear differential. CONSEQUENCE: If the drive shaft detaches from the rear differential, it may strike the fuel tank and result in a fuel leak, increasing the risk of a fire. REMEDY: Subaru has notified owners, and dealers will inspect the fastening nuts, and tighten or replace them, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on December 10, 2015. Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-856-488-8500. Subaru's number for this recall is WQV-57.

Next-gen Subaru WRX STI spotted at the N"urburgring
Tue, 16 Apr 2013Subaru has been busy testing the next-generation WRX STI. Well, it may be the STI. The big wing out back lends some credence to that theory, but it could be that the basic WRX is getting new action in the back section. Time will tell.
In either case, spy photographers nabbed a few shots of the heavily camouflaged sedan running around the Nürburgring. Unfortunately, it looks as if Subaru has taken some of the sexy out of the WRX Concept we saw at the New York Auto Show, leaving this car looking more derivative of the current model than a revolution in design. The bold power bulge has disappeared from the vehicle's hood and the lower fascia looks far more demure than the the wild concept. Likewise, the muscular rear fenders have been toned down substantially.
The result is a car that looks more like a mildly warmed over version of the current model than a production version of the WRX Concept. Still, engineers and designers may have a long way to go before the finished product hits the market, so we'll reserve final judgement for now. After all, the early BRZ mules were nothing short of a travesty to look at, and we know how that turned out. Hope springs eternal.
