I thought they all got the 2.5L. ...unless you've had a 2.2L swapped in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did some research over at Edmunds.com. Seems that in 1999, the Legacy Outback and the GT got the ej25, while the Legacy L and the Brighton got the ej22.

Sweet82 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 The first few digits of your vin should be something like "4S3BK4351X6........ 4 is Country of Origin--US S is Manufacturer--Subaru/Isuzu USA 3 is a Passenger car B is Legacy K is the Wagon (D is the Sedan) 4 is the 2.2 motor 5 is your manual seat belts and driver and passenger side air bags _ is your check digit 6 is your assembly plant (Lafayette IN.) and transmission type. (6 is 5sp MT, 7 is Auto) _ the last six are your sequience numbers The sixth digit of your vin should be a "4" if you have the 2.2 motor. Hope this helps, Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 84 GL Mad Max 01 Forester Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
