Re: My 1973 Subaru 1400 GSR
Cool photos,
I not sure if you know but the GSR was the Subaru that gave the company it reputation. The model before had inboard disk brakes on the side of the gearbox. The GSR twin carburetor are made by Zeinth Stromberg and the engine had floating liners. In Australia they became famous by winning the Southern Cross rally championship. Would you beleive I still have all the parts & workshop manual for GSR Subaru. Tony

Re: My 1973 Subaru 1400 GSR
DOn't have any photos and don't want to sell the manuals. I am hoping that I will one day find another GSR. But I won't hold my breath.
