Model	Subaru OBS
Year	1996
Car Setup	Weapon R intake
Bio	first suby in '86, DL Hatchback drove to 196k. My Brother drove it to 230k and it died soon after atthe hands of our cousin. 2nd suby was an '88 XT which I drove to 186k and donated to charity. My current '96 OBS has 208k on her and I'm saving for an engine swap when this one stops running. I own my own business and I think new cars are a huge waste of money. Old cars on the other hand are just plain fun!

Price Paid	$125.00
Strengths	Easy install, it took maybe 40 minutes. My brothers RS now shifts like a miata, no kidding! His wife loves the shifter because of the lower shifting effort (her only compliant about the car was that it was hard to shift :shrug:)
Weaknesses	The shift gates feel notchy (thats not even a word LOL) which I like but some might not.
Overall	Makes the RS feel like a whole new car. I gotta figure out how to get it into my '96 OBS now
Overall Rating	5
