Alura's 1993 Legacy Touring Wagon

[Alura]

Soooo... I bought another car. I feel like this has become a disease, and I feel like I never have enough cars. Thank you Mike.

The car is a 1993 Legacy Touring Wagon, 

• 22T/25D Hybrid Motor
• VF23 Turbo
• FMIC
• RobTuned ECU
• 550CC Injectors
• Full Exhaust
• Stock Auto Trans with sport mode and a Transmission Cooler
• BC BR coilovers
• STi Front Lip

And probably more stuff that I'm missing, but that' all the important stuff.

The car came without seats, but already threw some 97 legacy GT seats in it. 

There was also thought to be a blown headgasket, but the coolant expansion tank was just cracked, and that's already been replaced as well.

SO, the car just needs some tires and I will hopefully be able to register the car for the winter and start driving it! Hoping to swap to a manual after the winter.

Garrett's old car if anyone didn't know. I assume the trans is no longer slipping?

looks pretty good 

quite the parking lot you guys have going lol

Not that I know of, I haven't really driven it a long distance. When it was picked up it had to be towed, since there were no seats in it. Not that I would put it past mike to ratchet strap a milk crate in there, but I felt that was a little unsafe. Guess we will find out soon enough! I dont plan on letting it sit very long. I want to get the lexus sold, and drive that right meow!

Its becoming a serious problem. Im not sure we can aquire to many more cars for a little while. 

The SVX, Supra, ZX10 and boat will be going to hibernate pretty soon here though.

Glad to see that vehicle is back in the club, nice pick-up Alura!

Can't believe they got rid of the Advans.  Nice pick up, the auto combined the vf23 is something else.

whoever put those wheels on it is an idiot. they lowered the car more and put spacers between the wheel and the hub so all 4 tires are literally rubbing on the fenders. hopefully the auto trans will last a little longer, i think it used to slip in 4th under wot if you didnt use sport mode so it would downshift.

 

[GClark]

Why!!! LOVING people. It didn't slip until you were going pretty fast, I didn't ever launch it.

Hrmmm...milk crates with ratchet straps? So comfy.

Have some really nice 03 WRX seats for sale if you want to upgrade. Also a set of 05 Foz seats with heaters if you are worried about chilly cheeks this winter!

PM me for details. Merci beaucoup.

ANNNDDD its has a blown head gasket. Oh well. Was hoping to have it at the meet tomorrow. Guess it may be a little bit longer!

 

[Alura]

very unimpressed.

for anybody wondering, garrett decided while I was at work my car needed a steak sandwich on it...

I couldn't finish it because I was to busy puking from drinking the night before.
