Miss my old 3.6r wagon

So yeah. Back in 2019 I sold wagon project. Car was a 3.6r grey outback, redone with us and jdm legacy parts.

This car was amazing in many ways, but had problems always with suspention settings and alignment. Got a 530xit m pack instead and it’s been a nightmare car so far. Always new problems.

So I am looking this time to import a 2.0gt dit (black one in the pic) wagon from japan to do a lhd conversion. (I am from Canada)

That would be the real deal this time. Not a clone.

Or maybe a 2.5gt TS? (Rally blue one)

Any inputs between the 2 engines? The 2.0 has better fuel economy and power. And cvt.

2010-12 are 2.5gt and updated versions are 13-14 with the 2.0gt dit cvt. And usdm style front end.

Thoughts?

We don’t have any wagons here in Canada.. sad

The 2.0 DIT is the most powerful factory Legacy ever produced, at 296hp/296tq. The GT is essentially the same as the GT we get here, with slightly higher compression than USDM resulting in the 280hp compared to USDM 265hp.

Even being in Canada, I don't believe that any 5th gens would be eligible for import until 2024 at the earliest (for the 2009 models), which would lock away the DIT until 2027 at least. Unsure how you'd get around that.

Also, just a note, the 13-14 does NOT have a USDM front end. It's still entirely JDM, thought visually the JDM post facelift and USDM post facelift are much more visually similar than pre-facelift is. Not the same though.

wow, sharp man

i've got a 3.6 r wagon, and am just starting to look into lowering it
