I'm new here, I just picked up a 1993 Legacy Wagon 5sp, lots of miles, but lots of good miles left. I've crawled around the car and it appears that this car doesn't have a hydraulic clutch. Does this sound right? I've subscribed to Alldatadiy and am really disappionted with the information I've obtained so far. I can't find any thing about replacing the clutch or clutch adjustment. I want to replace the clutch in the next several weeks, the prior owner a Subaru head recommended it, and I think it's probably a good idea. I'm looking at a LUK or Exidy clutch
So far I'm happy with the car.
Comments appreciated

You are correct, only the Turbos got hydraulic clutches from that generation.

Here's a page with some good information:

the last picture shows the cable clutch's adjustment nuts

Thanks for the reply and link, it was very helpful. All of the clutch replacement how-to's assume you have an AWD subie. I suspect replacing the clutch on a FWD is not as complicated. It looks like a good project in the beginning of the new year.
Happy Holidays.
