  1. hmm, interesting. thanks for not being the typical car forum I am on and flame my ideas haha I will be looking into this, but not tackling it until my V8 300zx drift missle is finished haha
  2. Which is the weak link, the stubs, axles them selves, or the wheel side?? that center diff might foul my plans for this
  3. So, yeah, as the title says it's a RWD and AWD idea... locking hubs up front, I know trucks can do it, toyota has a fairly small truck with locking front hubs, not exactly sure what goes into it but I might look into this.. unless someone else already has??? I was laying in bed and it clicked. now, things I don't know: central differential; act open with front wheels off ground?? how much will it hurt the transfer of power for the front wheels to be dis-connected? what is a tyical RWD swap for the legacy?
  4. This is the beast of a legacy!!! My first love, and my next love!
  5. My ideas are coilovers, sway bars, bushings, a EJ22T and 6 speed, might do a WRX swap, I like those haha looks bone stock and has the 'haul rump roast' mode haha I can't really find a price point on a WRX/STi swap, or a EJ22T+6 speed swap, but I will figure that out at a later date, suspension and interior first I can't really find any websites that have anything for the 90-00 legacy though
  6. I am hoping to have a awesome car (already done by owning a subaru!) with a decent performance parts background, my last few cars have had NO performance parts haha I know perrin have suby stuff so I will be hunting around and seeing what all is out there in the next few weeks
  7. So, how's it going?? My name is Tim, I am 23, live in south west, Florida. I am looking at the subaru legacy from the 90's, I drove one a while back for flower deliveries, it was a total POS but it NEVER left me stranded (can't say the same about the last few cars I owned...) little background on the car: Flower delivery vehicle...we beat the piss out of this poor car, and it took it all and asked for more...it had a nasty oil leak so we had to use nasty water/oil..which was a tad more water than oil haha car didn't care at all, ran like a champ! last day it was alive (owner didn't want to put any more money into it), I was ~40 minuets from home 2 towns north, I come out of a gated community heading back to the flower shop, car SHOOT right, almost hit the curb but I saved it. called into the shop and got the order, "Get it back here if you can, if not leave it on the side of the road and ill come pick you up" I honestly beleive it it wasn't for the amazing AWD under that car it wouldn't have gone anywhere. the RF wheel was on and off locking up and making the car fly around crazily (not really, but drama!) doing roughly 35 in a 45 all the way home...took F.O.R.E.V.E.R! got it home, and I am surprised, shop is, etc etc. since that day back in 2009 I have loved the subaru legacy wagon, and all wagons, c'mon who doesn't love wagons?! so I am here to learn what I can about these cars, see if there is performance parts, OEM parts, etc etc etc and in february I hope to own one of these cars!!!
