"Could the legends be true?"
Mechanically it is an EA82T, Subaru's second turboed engine. It is unintercooled and the slowest engine ive ever had in my life (runner up is a D15B running on 3cylinders). The transmission is an Automatic 3 speed, which when coupled with the motor makes for a very long trip to 60 mph (16 seconds at 65 degrees going downhill)
It sits high but its because this shit is a massive pain in the dick to lower.
I lowered the front 2 inches with Subaru XT struts, which did seem to help the look. The back is dropping 2" on some Eibach replacement coilover struts sized at 9"x2.5" (stock is 11"x2.5")
Then i hit the wheels with some 150 grit sandpaper to clean them up, i still have a ways to go.
But so far that's where I am now, final product will be 5x100 swapped (GC impreza front suspension, XT6 rear suspension) lowered another 2" on subaru impreza coilovers up front and legacy coils in back. Power will come from an EJ family engine, most likely an EJ25 with a WRX or STI turbo kit/intake manifold mated to a first gen Legacy 5 speed transmission. So stay tuned guys...

I've got a 1986 Subaru GL-10, I traded an MR2 i got for $500 and $1000 on top of it, This may very well be the only rust free GL-10 in Minnesota, and may be the ONLY GL-10 in MN, there is a red one to be rumored to be in existence here but the rumors are few and far between. Options i have on this car are: Digital Dashboard, Active Ride Height, Trip Computer/Range computer, power windows and locks, sunroof, every option available except leather seats if they were offered.Mechanically it is an EA82T, Subaru's second turboed engine.
