Liberty 3.0R SPEC B
So as some of you may know I recently purchased an N/A 2.5 foz (financial issues and too many things braking on my WRX)
So I've become bored of it already and annoyed of the weird throttle lag, so I'm looking at something with a EZ30, more specifically a Lib 3.0R Spec B. Just wanting people's opinions/experiences with them. Reliability, power, handling ETC. Also wondering if anyone would know the costs associated with an auto to manual swap? Lots readily available in auto but they have a quoted 0-100 time a full second and bit slower than the 6 speeds, plus I just have a personal preference for an extra pedal. Thanks! |

As far as auto manual swap goes. Dont even bother. You dont have the car yet. And if manual (or auto) is the priority. Then buy one that meets your needs. Dont buy one that doesnt, then try and convert.

my old boy bought one new in 05, my sister is still driving it today, easily 280k kms plus so reliability shouldnt be an issue. i think it has had a few belts and idler pulleys but no other engine issues.
Comfy car, even with the 18's and licorice strap tyres, leather and sunroof are good, i really liked the car every time i drove it. They are not that fast, but nice once on cam.

Wouldn't even bother ... The engine made less power and peak torque was around very high in the rev range compared to the turbo. I test drove one and hated it. Auto made it even worse.
Buy turbo manual Liberty GT Spec B and prosper.
