Old Skool Subbie

What is wasted spark and what is the advantage of using Wasted Spark over just replacing the old coils with new ones?

It has a little more power than the Brumby and can fit 5 people in it. Still my SVXs far superior in almost every way and is newer too lol But im hoping the Legacy is cheaper to run Its not to bad eh. Just need to replace windscreen and the front CVs 1st. its done 327,000kms so far. its only part way thru Its life Its a coil for the ditzy it has.. But Im pretty sure its Single point fuel injected???? It has High pressure Reg on the fuel line I think??? will have to have a better look. The legacy with the hi/low I looked at yesterday was carbed but was a NZ new car. while this is a JDM import heres a pic of the distzy

Im guessing so? depends what the new motor will be... Ive heard rumours but saying that it is [glow=red,2,300]ONLY a rumour[/glow] It could be the next genration of flat 4 based off the EZ30/EZ36 Supost to have timing chain, be lighter smaller, with Toyota designed heads with Toyotas own D4S ( stands for D-4 Superior. D-4S combines both direct injection and conventional port injection for each cylinder which means two injectors per cylinder, or eight injectors if the engine is a 4-cylinder boxer like the FT-86 ) Or it could be the latest EJ20 just fitted with the toyota heads and D-4S? We wont really know untill its released..

Well the 1st concept did run and was driven onto the stage.. saying that they were apprantly still working on the DI for the heads I think? Maybe at the moment its fitted with just a basic 2L out of a impreza in it? Im not sure about the 1 in the pics above

I Just brought myself my 1st ever Legacy today Its nothing flash but it will be my new daily run about. Its a 1990 Mi 4WD Legacy. 1800cc sohc Push button 4WD

Im very glad you did this... Im buying a legacy tonight and plan to use something similar

Base model supost to cost approx 20-22,000 dollars US

Bloody hell Ive just looked at 2 1800 legacys 1 guy told me he had owned it for 2 years... When in fact they have only owned it for 2 weeks And the 2nd guy said he owned it for 3 months and when in fact it was only 3 bloody days. Ive just spent 70 bucks on VIR reports I hate liers One guy has explained himself and Im ok with his explaination and it checks out. The other guy told me he's sold it but never explained himself why he told me the big porkie

Looking at possibly getting a 1992 1.8L Legacy Its 4wd and manual with Hi/Low Has done 200,000 so kms. I think its NZ new. Ive got a few questions... What do I look out for that could go wrong in one of these? What is the fuel eccommy like for one? Is there any thing else I should know about them? Thanks

Some more pics

http://www.autocar.co.uk/News/NewsArticle/Toyota-Concepts/246532/ Theres still No pics shown of the engine bay Toyota stole the Tokyo Auto Salon today when it unveiled this stunning, new shape FT-86 G Sports Concept. The car is an evolution of the 'Toyobaru, the lightweight rear-drive sports coupe that Toyota and Subaru are working on together. This latest interpretation has a sharper front end and more aggressive side body treatment, new wheels and matt black bonnet. The lower front air intake is both larger and more dramatic, with central vent and air blades either side. There are new side sills and deeper body vents for cooling both front and rear brakes. At the back, Toyota's bolted on a far more businesslike boot spoiler that's straight out of Japan's D1 Drift series and the meatier diffuser treatment and twin exhausts. Under that vented bonnet, the FT-86's Subaru-derived 2.0-litre Boxer four now gains a turbo but there's no word on power. The latest of these Scooby turbo flat-fours in the new limited Impreza R205 in Japan punts out a strong armed 320ps, so that perhaps is a guide. As it stands, the FT-86 is still six-speed manual but the car is now a touch bigger: length up 30mm to 4160mm while width is now 1780mm, 20mm up on the '09 car. The car sits 30mm lower down however at 1230mm and at road level, rolls on slick Bridgestone Potenza RE050s: 245/45 R19 at the front with 275/35 R19s at the back. The new concept car also has a GPS-track day unit co-developed with the creators of the Gran Turismo computer game franchise and automotive technology giant Denso. The GPS unit allows users to drive the real FT-86 around a real track and then remove the memory card from the car, plug it into a PS3 and either watch the lap virtually or race against yourself, as the real car appears as the car that you battle against. The GPS unit was tested in a fully race-prepped Lexus IS F at the Nurburgring last October. Intriguingly, the original FT-86 concept car's dashboard had an outline of Fuji Speedway, a lap timer and an altimeter, hinting at Toyota's plans for the technology. Reports suggest Toyota will offer this technology on most future models, starting with the launch of the production FT-86. The FT-86, which may get the Celica name in Europe, is still set for a 2011 launch in Japan. Peter Nunn

Looks cool. any one have a link to it? is it just a looker or does it go too?

Say stuff you guys ( fuel companys ) im going electric lol This morning I watched the doco on who killed the ellectric car. It was very intresting Or convert your car to run water if you can work out how lol

I kinda agree too... Mind you untill your told it was a 4 door you dont actually realise it was. Couldnt tell it on TV

Just like me lol

Nice score. doesnt look to bad. my old late model vortexs number plate started with PX. Save it. the later models are pretty rare

Suppsly the Gen3 EA82 has approx 5bhp more over the Gen 1 and 2 engines

Im not sure what the differences are.. but they are the Gen3 heads which last better and have less problems

If I remember right its the window wiper motor is right in the way. Thats only the case if it has the spider manifold ( I Think? )

Dont qoute me on it but you may need the loom as well

u still got it maybe interested Sorry it sold about a month ago lol
