So here is the rundown.

Im a subaru lover of all kinds. This is my first Legacy.

I have NO intent to keep it.

I want to bring it back to life and sell it to someone who can love it and care for it.


I got it with a low compression on cyl 4 causing major misfire. Needs major cleaning, and minor little things but for an original GT 5 speed wagon i couldnt say no.

Plan is to tear the motor out, find whats causing the low compression (most likely a stuck/stretched exhaust valve). Have the heads rebuilt, fresh up the short block, reseal it all, replace the clutch, and flush drivetrain fluids and do all needed maintenance and get her to a new home.
