Where does the Justy owner fit in on this site?


Recommended Posts

Justy's really need their own forum, as they are completely unlike any other subaru - new or old. The problem is they don't warrant their own forum because frankly most people here don't like them. They were not all that reliable either - with their engines often lasting only 100k before needing a rebuild.

 

I personally like the Justy, and have had my eye out for a 4WD one for a while now. Unfortunately, they are rare, and parts are even more rare. Would make a sweet rally-x rig - cheap, light, and 4WD. And no one will care if I destroy it.

A Justy would actually be a great off-roader because of its power-to-weight ratio. I think something like 66-73hp(?) in a car that can potentially get below 2000lbs is quite respectable. If it could be lifted 2-3" and run 15" wheels/tires, weld up the spiders in the rear, and there you go.

I am a new owner of a 92 Justy GL (4wd, 5-sp)and am looking for a forum to call home.

 

Welcome! I think you might have found the right place. I know there are Justy owners here...I have an '89 5 speed, great little car.

 

There doesn't seem to be a whole lot here in the old gen section about the justy, does anyone know of a Justy specific forum? Thanks in advance.

 

Tell us about your Justy!

Welcome aboard. Justy's are still Subaru's. They belong right here in the old gen. The new gen starts with cars that Started in the 90's. Legacy/SVX/Impreza. Since the Justy started in the 80's, here it belongs.

You've got a good one, fuel injection is great!!!

I copied this from the "Older Generation of Subarus" header,

 

Older model Subaru discussion: 360, DL, GL, Loyale, Brat, Justy, Xt, Xt6, STD, RX, RS, GLF, FE, GL-10, GL-5, GSR, DL-5, FF-1, and Rex.

 

So it looks like Justys are barely welcome here:rolleyes:

 

However, the more you modify it,......the more the Justy is welcome here!

Bumped into a guy on base today in a lifted '91 GEO Tracker. It was pretty sick really. Up on 32X10.5 Super Swampers, about 6" suspension lift, stock engine and running gear. Looked like a blast! I'd rather have the Samurai I think tho :)
