Why do Subaru's run at high revs
I can't remember exactly off hand, but the Liberty 2.2 and the OB 2.5 I have seem to run at around 2700 rpms at about 100k's where as my commodore, my wifes daewoo, and the 2010 falcon at work sit around 1800 rpms at 100ks' (all above are auto's) Why is this? The boxer engine design? The gearing in ...

98 Outback Dilema fix and keep or break up?
I bought a 92 Liberty yesterday and new struts and springs ($1100)were too expensive for me, to raise it, then on Gumtree I saw this unlicenced 98 Outback and I bought it today with the intention of wrecking it and putting the struts and springs etc on my liberty. But besides the hail damage the eng...
