Logan K Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I didn't know they made a RX for that generation of subies, were those JDM only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi subbie Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 That link has been posted before The RX has been around since atleast 1974 as a 1400 RX Leone. It came with 5 speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy RallyGuy Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I'll definitely have to watch this later *on lunch break at work* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oregoncoast Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Slowest high speed chase ever. Most anti-climatic "car over a cliff" ending. More like, "Two cars go for a drive. Then one car drives down a steep hill." Still cool seeing those old Subie's though!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O.C.D. Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 May be a repost but I always love that "Fast" car chase in Double Clutch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81MV Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 They sound fantastic... Watched the new Die Hard movie last week, chock full of Mercedes products at every available opportunity... that said, product placement's not a new concept, watching this clip! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DatSub Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Re-post or not I hadn't seen it. Great classic car porn clip; what I wouldn't give to travel back to the 70's in Japan and test drive as many cars as I could get my hands on.

88wacaroo Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Killer Post!!! I hope it stays up!!! I"m sure the RX LEON had the 4 BBL. option on it since it looked like the rally setup I was listening to it and you could hear the difference between the two in the car!! I looked at the sanbar van on the dyno-BADA** 14HP-23#s torque I would"ve like to seen the RPMs too It sounded like 6-7000!!! WAY COOL!!!

Mechanical_misfit Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 What a shame to see that RX get smashed all to heck. It was "just a car" back then. Looks like in some of the shots, you could see the roll bar. Too cool. I wonder if any of those cars even still exist? You'd probably have to have a lot of cheddar to get your hands on one though.

danrenfroe2016 Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 I like the Paint on the RX. I think I want do do this on the side of my BRAT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sub78 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I'm pretty sure they sped this film up to make it as riveting as this was. I was on the edge of my seat for 8 minutes. Great post. Cool to see the old Soobs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
