don't listen to this meme spouting parrot

the outback sport has the elder god tier 2.2 liter EJ22. No head gasket issues, and the spark plugs are not at the end of the heads so they are easily accessible. also, lesbians prefer the outback and the forester.

Unreliable. You will bring shame upon your family.

Buy a corolla instead.

>>14948136
What exactly is it like scalewise? Is it just like the impreza sedan but with a hatch or is it more of a wagon like the legacy wagon
This one I found has been meticulously maintained it seems, even has proper documentation

>>14948146
impreza sedan with a hatch.
with that documentation, i wouldn't be worried at all. what is the asking price?

>>14948158
$3000.
Which is why I came here, most subarus are very expensive here because boy racer love them

>>14948171
Boy racers tend to only buttfuck the sedans. Most of the outbacks get relegated to moms

>>14948171
damn, even if it's auto that's a good deal.

dont get it op
they can't togue they can't race or track
too heavy, they are wagons
they suck

>>14948171
If you want an AWD hatch/wagon thing and it seems good, then why not get it?

outback : tricking kids into buying an unreliable wagon thinking it's the initial d sports car since 1995

if mine wasnt rusting to shit i'd swap a jdm spec ej20t into it. i love mine. owned for 6 years now have 191k on the clock. make sure timing belt is good and youll be good to go.

>tfw his dick so big you rip a fart

There was a manual Outback Sport in my area for 1100 and it's gone. Not sure if Subarus are my thing though.

At what point do these Subarus not have headgasket problems?

>>14948124
you forgot timing set

if it has the 2.2, it definitely won't be a race car, but those are lighter than the regular outbacks, so it'll be fine. the 2.2 might have more upgrade options that the 2.5, since it's based on the impreza engine. i can't remember if the 2.2 is an interference engine or not - that will indicate how much worry you should put in the timing belt. the 4eat is pretty reliable, as is the awd system. not as much cargo room as a regular outback, but probably still quit a bit if you lay the back seats down. if it's clean for $3000 and you want a subaru, there's really nothing wrong with that one. i kinda like the way the outback sport looks too.

>>14950866
it's shifty and slow lmao at your life

>>14950866
also, if you test drive it, take it to a parking lot and do slow circles in both directions with the wheel turned as far as it will go. if the car shudders or doesn't want to roll fairly freely around the circle, there is a problem with the awd. you should be able to pull a fuse to put the car in fwd only. that might help you as well.

Ive had mine for 4 months now and I love it, bought it for 1600 with 79k on it. 85k now. 5 speed, little rust in the rear wheel arches. Look for rust all over, pretty reliable so far. really nice chassis, not very fast but handles well and can drift it with ease in the snow. very functional interior. I love mine, 5mt is recommended

>>14951412
But is it better than a Miata or MR2?
The answer is NO

>>14950619
I'm not a Subaru fanatic but from what I recall early 2000's (2002 maybe) to just a couple years ago (2014?) suffered from headgasket problems.

>>14951469
then maybe you shouldn't try and give advice

>>14951469
Forgot to add I don't think all engines suffered from it, I think boosted models were particularly vulnerable.

Airconditioning evaporator clogs with debris easily, as does the evap drain.
Automatic transmission AWD torque split is 90/10 front bias. Manual is 60/40 front bias.
CV boots are prone to failure. CV's are strong though.
If it is a manual transmission and there is a noticeable chirp or whir when engaging first and it wants to stall, check the Dual Mass Flywheel. Failure of the adhesive between the surfaces of the flexible coupling causes these issues.
If it has the transfer case, make sure it cycles between low and high range easily. The linkages can seize fairly easily.
You can pull about another 50A from the factory charging system. More than that and the alternator will not keep up, it's only a little fella.
Front left steering ball joint collapses on the outback. Don't know why, but both Outbacks had the issue. A clunk while turning that is lower in pitch than the clunk of a failing CV is the dead giveaway.

My sister has this generation Outback, my old man has the generation following and my mum has a 2011 Forester. No major issues apart from the failed DMF on the old man's car. No Scooby Doos for me though, too cramped in the engine bay.

I see reading isn't your strong point.

You can track anything from Testarossa to a tractor. I would think the somewhat vague steering and weight would work against you in the Outback. The automatic transmission in the earlier models is very lackluster and I don't think the chassis is adequately braced for high stress cornering. They are a great car for going off the beaten track with plenty of shit in the back and have proven themselves pretty reliable in my family's case.

Horses for courses, drive what you want.

They weigh around 3000 pounds. My 1990 legacy wagon handles very good. They have independent suspension all around and mine has all wheel disc brakes. The engines are immensely powerful... but just as powerful as a civic, corolla, mr2, or really any other little four cylinder of the time that wasn't a race car.

I should mention I bought the car before winter started and used the extremely shitty and balding tires all winter with no problems, yes you don't need awd but damn does it make a difference. It's not winning any pulls but it grips like a motherfucker, OP really you can't go wrong with this, 3k is a lot though I paid 1600 for mine with 79k on odo and 5 speed, mine also has the best feedback from the pedals out of any car.. they have a weight to them that I love, actually feels like I'm moving something. Sorry for sideways

Buy it for the chassis and nothing else. I've owned a 2000 5MT for a year or so now and yes, logic dictates that they aren't fast in stock form.

>>14960749
why aren't they fast

from what I understand you're likely to have a head gasket replacement sooner or later with this era of subaru. See if it's been done already. If so you have my blessing.

>>14960808

It wasn't as common in the 2.2 but it still happens. Current one I'm working on has a minor leak but it's still there.

>>14960808
EJ22 is closed deck and is thus a solid engine to build from. Lighten it, stiffen it, and lower it (the car as a whole) for maximum joys

It's just a car, try one OP and see if it meshes with you. I had a BH5 legacy wagon prior and I still miss that bastard.

>>14960941

the sport is a sleeper its no wagon its a 5 door hatchback if you believe in yourself it will win every time

>>14948113
>What can you tell me about the outback sport

It's an Impreza hatchback. Anything that applies to the Impreza applies to the Outback Sport.

Also, the hood scoop is non-functional as it has no turbo or intercooler (assuming you live in the US).
