Been into Subarus for a long time, drive a Legacy GT SpecB (Liberty in Australia) for 5 years now, but never heard of this version. Such a special car. Absolutely beautiful.

@pageonejournalist 2 года назад

Just stumbled upon this video and... I'm afraid to say I do not think you know just how special an S-series Subaru is. It's hand made, with every nut and bolt torqued to spec (i.e. torqued by hand to an exact number) rather than with machines which have a tolerance to them so that gives them feel so much more precise than just any STi. Savagegeese has a lovely review on last year's S209 where he goes into excrutiating detail on what makes an S-series special.

@PerformanceLifestyles 2 года назад

The S Series Subaru's are amazing cars especially the S202 Impreza (video on our channel). I never knew they were hand made, everyday is a school day 😁 Will check out Savagegeese video 👍😎

@Hexen138 2 года назад

After getting into subaru legacy's and owning a legacy gt. I have to say that it quickly took the spot on one of my most favorite cars. They are extremely slept on and while not having as aggressive body lines and accessories as the impreza wrx or sti they still keep a somewhat elegant yet aggressive look to them. I just learned about these s402 legacy's and wishing I would be able to find one for sale but seeing how rare these are I doubt I'd ever find one, but regardless it's an amazing car.

@PerformanceLifestyles 2 года назад

The legacy feels like a more comfortable Impreza and they still carry the characteristics over. The S402 is a really rare machine so can be difficult to find one. Are you based in the UK?

@Hexen138 2 года назад

@@PerformanceLifestyles I'm in the USA so trying to find one would be through importers only, and so far it seems that they mostly import more cars that seem to have a bigger following (skyline, silvia, mr2, jzx, etc). I suppose if I really wanted to make the s402 I could source parts from Japan and fit them onto the base legacy gt although it would never be a true s402 lol

@Hexen138 2 года назад

@@Ballsack44 the ej255 is a pretty reliable engine, never really had any issues with it besides a couple of small things here and there. The legacy/outback is such a nice platform and very versatile, to the point that I'm actually doing a "vanlife" build out of an 08 outback. Overall they're pretty dependable

@adeonfire 3 года назад

I had one of the the original legacy Gtb back in 1990. They had twin turbos and were restricted to 112mph. S402 is more refined car, good review 👏

@PerformanceLifestyles 3 года назад

Thank you for your kind words 👍 The S402 is a very refined car, doesn't have that Impreza punch but if a luxury super saloon is something anyone is after its definitely worth a shot. I believe this one was also restricted to 112mph too 😀👍

@yomigaerikasuful 3 года назад

Very nice review, it's about time these cars get brought to light. By the way, the voice heard when starting the vehicle is a Japanese Electronic Toll Reader, she says "Insert toll card please" as a rough translation. Also the turbo on that car is one of rarest Subaru had used, it's an undocumented Vf51 that wasn't available for purchase unless you had a VIN number for a S402. Cheers!

@PerformanceLifestyles 3 года назад

Thank you for the kind words 👍 I didn't realise that was the case with the turbo on the S402. It is most certainly a very rare car and not a great deal about them on the Internet so it was a great pleasure to be able to do this. Please take a look at our other videos too 👍

@KSenhor 2 года назад

Nice review! One of the cars of my dream garage, along side of the original GTR, STI Type RA-R and the R35 GTR Nismo. Next time talk more about the stats of this car, like the disc brake size wich got the same calipers as the Impreza STI Type RA-R. They got the same wheels from the impreza S204 and S205. Wider rubber, instead of the normal 215 45 R18 on the spec B and tuned by STI versions. Same engine from the Impreza STI, but supposely a detuned version, besides all the bits you already mentioned. Main contestors were the S4 (not the RS4) and the M3 (E46). I would like to see it again on your channel face to face to a more common spec B, and the differences checked.

@PerformanceLifestyles 2 года назад

Thanks for the kind words and the advice. I couldn't for tge life of me remember tge size of the disks when filming so left it out. I know someone with a BH5 GT but dont unfortunately know of anyone with a Spec B. Its a beautiful car to drive and look at, best part is that most people look at them as a normal legacy 😁🤣

Wasn't the legacy the original rally platform used by subaru which was later replaced with the impreza because it was lighter than the legacy in weight and soon after subaru started winning championships.

@tominator19 5 месяцев назад

So does this have the full-beef STI transmission with the DCCD and front LSD, or is it the nerfed version of that 6-speed transmission that's in the USDM Legacy spec.B with no DCCD and an open front diff? I don't see any DCCD controls on that unique center console, so I'm assuming it's the latter. Does anybody know?

@PerformanceLifestyles 5 месяцев назад

No DCCD if I remember correctly but still a great car to drive 👌
