Why a single rotor? Won't the stock 13B fit in the engine bay? What sort of adapter plate are you using,custom made,or some sort of off the shelf VW type adapter?

How are you going about mating up the 13B to the Subaru transmission? Being a Mazda rotary guy that is in the process of buying my first Suby this intrigues me. Any details would be great. I have several 13B,and 12A's laying about. Chris

Is it the same motor that is in the RX?

Hey guys, There is a nice looking 89 Subaru GL-10 turbo wagon on ebay right now that I am interested in. I have concerns though as it is an older car with low miles,and a turbo. It is also an automatic which I am usually not a fan of,but could look past it for this car as it is really clean looking. I remember doing some research on a Subaru RX from this vintage,and reading all sorts of bad things about the engines. Is this EA82 in the turbo wagon the same engine with the same troubles as the RX? What can I expect to go bad on a car like this in the near future,and can parts be found easy enough if it breaks? What is a fair price for this car in your opinion?

The car was from NM,and now is in NY. Thanks for your help. Chris
