Hi all, Im Mal from south island new zealand. Not a current VR4 owner but had one many years back when i was young and less wise. My current vehicle has become past its used by date so im on the lookout for a replacement.

I had a 2007 Legacy GT auto a few years back until the wife decided it was too small and was browsing for another to relace my current POS. I came across a 97 legnum VR4 which brought back memories of my old one. It seems not too bad. Has 227K km but the trans apparetly has been rebuilt @156K current owner has had since 199K cam belt had just been done. And at around $4K seems like a good buy. LGT are minimum $5k for same year and newer ones (03-07) 7-8K.

My only concern is availability of parts my old vehicle did around 11L/ 100km so from memory the leggie would be around the same its all open road driving unless i put my boot in it which maybe likely from time to time.

Has anyone had any experience with the havok engineering ecu upgrade chip? Seem really cheap on ebay
