I think Im lucky that my rear main started leaking. If it hadnt I wouldnt have noticed all these things on the transmission. I was told by the PO(the guy that never registered the car and left me with a mess at the DMV) that everything was FINE except a broken timing belt. Whoever worked on this car is an idiot. I think they tried to replace the axle seals on the transmission, realized they couldnt and just left it.

The retainer is missing and has let the whole assembly spin. There is no fluid in the front diff and the dipstick reaks of burnt 90w. Im so pissed off. I guess it is a $500 lesson learned. My wife is way more pissed than I am, but the anger is ofcourse directed at me. If anyone needs parts from a 95 legacy l, lemme know, also have some JDM stuff for sale, check my post. Im also considering selling my freshened EJ22T. Let me know, and beware of idiots!

As much as I'd love to have...PLEASE don't sell the motor. Keep it man!

If I can find a cheap donor car that is not completely trashed in denver I will buy that and swap the motor into it. The few times I drove it, it was bad ass, turbo FTW!!! But cash is hard right now as I am moving, I will try to hold onto it as long as I can and drop it into an impreza or a legacy depending on which ever I find first.
