  1. Do you guys think that the price of 24.8k is a good deal on a dealer loaner 3.6R 2019 with 5.8k miles? I am wanting to get back into the Legacy crowd. I used to have a 2015 legacy and now have a BRZ and while I do love how cute small sporty and good it handles, I’m getting really tired of manual and having zero interior space, I also want more comfort and “luxury” the 3.6R offers. I am a bit afraid of going back to legacy after having such good handling right now. One decent thing is the BRZ isn’t the fastest car so going to a 3.6R won’t feel much different I don’t think? Anyways I’m thinking of checking out that dealer car for sale soon. Should I stay away or is it no big deal that a ton of folks have driven it?
  2. This is in Oregon, we didn't used to salt roads until recently so the bottom shouldn't be too rusty. I have no idea what shop did it, waiting to hear back if they have a receipt for the job. I would try and inspect myself, get a clip board of everything to check while I go look at it. Good to know you'd get it if it passed an inspection and had decent tires. I will take note of all these things to look out for! Thank you!!
  3. I am interested in purchasing a 1999 subaru legacy 30th anniversary limited edition sedan that has 127k miles and they are asking $2500 for it. They said they got the timing belt and head gasket replaced around 115k miles, and that it didn't blow but had a leaky gasket. They say it runs fine. The pictures of it are very clean, I have not gone out to go see it. I am not sure if this is a good deal or not. https://images.craigslist.org/00O0O_lebdyrsBMsA_1200x900.jpg https://images.craigslist.org/00J0J_6Ijgb8ZlCw8_1200x900.jpg https://images.craigslist.org/00202_47UNkTW4IiU_1200x900.jpg Any advice on this purchase?
  4. I'd be interested to see how the turbo 2020 legacy drives vs the H6 2019. Or vs the CVT WRX.
  5. https://www.wilsonvillesubaru.com/our-newest-custom-subaru-a-lifted-legacy/ A dealer near me lifted a legacy and it looks pretty rad to me! Would be interesting if it had the Outback bumper! Pics are 1.5" Primitive lift.
  6. Hey guys I do you know if a 2015 2.5i nameless axleback muffler delete exhaust will fit in a 2010 2.5i legacy?
  7. Never visited this thread before, just thought I would post my simple set up. Took the Legacy out to the range, then and got a Ruger LCP II yesterday. I have yet to shoot the LCP II but wow do I love how easy it is to rack the slide. I got the shield around May and it's great. I went with a single stack because I thought it might be easier for me to carry without printing but now that I have been doing it for a while I wish I got a G26 or G19 instead. Oh well, it's a great pistol regardless, except the slide is damn hard to rack compared to other pistols I have handled. I have around 500 rounds through it and there is no change with the slide. The trigger on the LCP II feels a lot more satisfying to pull than the shield 9. I've been thinking about upgrading the shield's trigger though.
  8. Subaru parts has a $270 fog kit http://parts.subaru.com/p/Subaru_2015_Legacy/FOG-LAMP-KIT/60246418/H451SAL000.html Though it's better to piece it together yourself and get the bulbs and stuff you want.
  9. You got it my dude. It is cryptic and people never really give full details in this forum for anything and always tell you just to find it yourself. To get the tune, PM me and I can give you the guys info who will Tune you. I went through Matt at ThrottleHappy but apparently some guy here named XRT I think does tunes and is in this forum, but in my opinion Matt at TH has a more stable and refined tune. So you get the info for Matt that I or someone else gives you (a user here gave me the info when I inquired such as you are). You message him on FB and or email him, honestly its best to try all means of communication with Matt. He replies slow for various reasons, that's just in his nature but he's an awesome guy. Once you get a hold of him and to make sure he is responsive and able to tune, you will need to go to http://www.tactrix.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.product_details&product_id=17&vmcchk=1&Itemid=53 and buy this for $170. Then you need to download ECUFlash which you can find on that website at the top under Downloads. Make sure you have a laptop, I used one with Windows and you download ECUFlash to the laptop. When you get your tactrix cable email talk to Matt and he will email you some instructions on how to download your stock tune using that cable and the software. You basically plug the thing into your car and your laptop and download the tune (He will give detailed instructions, it's pretty easy). Once you get your stock tune files, you email them to Matt and he will send you a couple tune options and a couple other files that you put in that program and upload into your car. He will then get your feedback on the tunes he sent you and refine it a couple more times till your tune fits your needs such as if you want touchy throttle response or not, etc. He will ask you to pay him before he gives you the final good tune file, just paypal him I think it was like $175 USD or so. Someone correct me if I am wrong on that price. So you pay him and he emails you one of the final tune files, and you upload that to your car and you're set. That's the basic gist of it, but when you upload a new tune to the car you need to do a 'fuzzy reset' which is disconnect the negative battery terminal, step on the brake and drain the remaining electricity and then turn the car to On (this doesnt mean turn the car all the way on, it means into the On position) off then on off again, I forget how many times but I think Tigger made a thread on it, and that resets your ECU so it can learn your new tune then you drive for 20 minutes kinda regular then 10 minutes spirited. Sorry for the massive wall of text, PM me if you want some more details and questions!! I tried to write up the important stuff. As for my personal view on the changes, I had my throttle response changed to VERY touchy. At the faintest press of the pedal my car goes. I feel more low end torque, RPM's seem to ram up more when you gas it, it seems way more zippy in the city. I am driving a 2.5i, the 3.6R guys I think see even better of a response from the tune.
  10. Dang alright, maybe I'll email him and see if he will reply.
  11. Does anyone have any info on an updated tune? At the end of May Ryan you said there was a refined tune and E85, did you ever get that?
  12. The 2.5 outback gets the high torque cvt that the 3.6r gets, and the 2.5 legacy gets shafted?
  13. Hooray, I love it when people type these kinds of comments, they are so helpful! Oh it doesn't matter that we already have the Legacy, or that maybe we didn't want a wagon, or that the idea just came to us randomly after getting the Leagcy, thanks for being super helpful!! :lol::lol:
  14. I want to do this too, no one would answer me so good luck... How much of a lift do you want? For me I am trying to get a simple 1.25" front/rear spacers so nothing too crazy, and I have been scouring ebay and the outback forum for the front bumper to match my color.
  15. Has anyone installed lift spacers on their 6th gen? http://get-primitive.com/spacers/262-lift-spacers-2010-legacyoutback.html#/front_lift_spacer_s-pick_your_size/lift_spacer_combo_se-pick_a_combo/rear_lift_spacer_s-pick_your_size http://andersondesign-fab.com/product.php?product=2010-2014-legacy-1-lift-kit-2 Something like those. I want to buy 1" lift spacers, but I heard about the rear two being multilink? Would I be able to simply buy those 1 inch lift spacers, plug them in, and then go get a wheel alignment and be good to go? Or do I need multilink for the rear and the regular simple spacer for the front? Would going above 1" look goofy on a Legacy? Thinking about converting into a sedan Outback...getting this lift and getting an Outback front bumper. I do a lot of rural driving and off road driving (yeah yeah why did I get a Legacy) and the extra ground clearance would be very helpful for me. Hoping I could do this lift myself then take it into the service shop for an alignment.
