I just remembered today, I bought my first Legacy in July of 2009 and it was two years ago yesterday it was totaled. Two days later I bought my silver Legacy and last year when that wouldn't pass May Inspection due to rust I retired it and bought the Outback. The 11th of May will be the day when I have had my Outback a year!! I think I'm too excited to have a car for more than one year lol. It and I have come a long way.
I really didn't do anything to the 91 Legacy, except fix/bandaid broken parts (Transmission, starter, heater core). at the time the only forum I was a member of was LegacyCentralBBS, which I rarely went on. I planned to clean up the headlights, throw on new fenders, new tires, and new exhaust but never got to it. I wanted to do a Manual AWD swap from the Auto FWD setup it had, but looking back on it now there is no way I could have done it in that point of time. The 96 was a problem when I first had it, it would start and run fine until it got warm and it was shut off, then it wouldn't start. The problem was the Crankshaft position sensor, after I replaced that it ran great! At some point the ABS unit short circuited and would put the car into Limp/death mode when it was plugged in, So I just ran it without ABS. I joined SLi a month after I had the car and did some light mods, GT bumper, mesh grill, GT wing, 'new' wheels from the 91, and a new radio. When I retired the 96 I carried over the GT front bumper, mesh L grill, and headlights. I'm going to be using more bits from it when I do my transmission swapSoon I hope.












Soon I hope.
