Hey everyone
I'm new to this forum and also this is the 1st subaru I've ever owned.
'92 Subaru Liberty
5 Speed Manual
Electric Sunroof
Electric Mirrors
Electric Windows
Cruise Control
Heaters/Air Con works beautifully
Only downfall with it is its done 393000kms and the gearbox is slowly on its way out so looking for a cheapo one.
Hope to meet a few Suby enthuasists throughout my suby time.

ok cheers spike... the thrust bearing and clutch has been replaced, but still makes a noise in the gearbox so has to have something to do with gearbox as i was told by the 2nd previous owner that was it.. there is no 4th but it goes in all the other gears fine.. its been like that for 18 months and still going hard so yeah but if i can still drive on it for a while ill be happy.. but still will be looking for a cheap gearbox for it
