well the doors and everything are pretty messed up are far as oping and closing goes.. haha. the gas door thing doesn't close, but before i bought the car i was planning on using part of an old speaker magnet to hold it shut (im ghetto like that). theres some rust spots and dings... but its really not that bad of a car. i have a picture somewhere, ill upload it after this post. the clutch didn't seem too bad, but if im going to pull the motor im going to replace it as well. from what i understand, theres a EJ22 in there. i found an EJ20 on eaby for $390, which i am to understand that it the jap equivilent to the american EJ22. does anyone know if it will match up to the tranny and what not?
i am very mechanical, but this is my first subaru that i've even looked at. im a volvo man at heart. but the subies awd and the price is going to be good for when im move to utah (im a ski bum) so that was the purpose of purchasing the vehicle in the first place. but i am willing to do what i have to do. i plan on getting the car towed to my house sometime soon, then i will update you with what actually happened, it was raining and dark so i didn't feel like trying to look.
