My 99 Subaru B4 RSK Legacy (Twin Turbo)
Hey all! I havent posted in a while due to moving overseas and military deployments. Unfortunately I sold my 2003 BBY VIII, it was hard to do but I will own another one upon my return stateside! I really miss my evo but my lust for AWD and turbos is satisfied by my new(to me) car.
I picked up this twin turbo'd legacy for $3900 when I got to Japan in February last year.
I dont have many good pictures yet but here are some specs and the pics I do have:
She's a 1999 with only 70,000 km or about 43,500 miles. This is the twin turbo model with stock Bilstein suspension, Subaru sport-shift tranny with steering wheel mounted rocker switches (for shifting on the fly), two-tone leather interior, and Subaru RFRB (run fast, run beautiful) body accents. This car is a blast to drive and it's great for hauling the family around Japan! Again, I apologize for the lack of quality photos.

Looks great and +1 for more engine pics. I was curious how subaru had the set up for these TT engines. I hope to be able to get over to Japan and pick something cool like this up when I get over there in the Navy!

Engine
The engine bay is a mess thanks to the legendary boxer! It's nowhere near as clean looking as the 4g63 was. This is the only other picture I have at the moment, I will take/post some more up later.

It would be nice to have these Subaru models available stateside. I know they are available there but like 6-speed said the ones here put the stateside models to shame. The newer Legacy models here are beautiful, and the STi Forester is pretty awesome too!

Lol I just gotta convice the fiance that Japan would be a good place to live for 3-4 years! lol
I've always been in love with the culture and when I got into cars that was just the icing on the cake. Took 4 years of Japanese in high school was going to college for international business with japanese and supply chain management being my focus then they cut my department with a year and a half left to go. All I could think about was "How could I get to Japan now...?" So I joined the Navy, but my fiance doesn't want to live somewhere thats the complete opposite of the US. I may just have to tell her "Sorry honey, but we HAVE to go there! Thats where I'm getting stationed!"
