if you have changed belts before it will be no problem it is really easy just line up the marks and check it carefully.
turn the engine one full turn then check again
the tensioner is unusual i just used a big screwdriver and pushed it back enough to get a pin in the hole then take pin out when finished

Question

Hello!

Can anyone provide advice on changing the cam belt on a DOHC Legacy Turbo ('94 model year), please?

It's 100% the same as with a contemporary Impreza DOHC engine.

Exclamation

Thing is - I've changed cam-belts aplenty, but I've never changed a cam-belt on this particular model of car before, so I don't want to make a mistake and line up the wrong marks. It LOOKS pretty straight forward and I made sure I took note of how they lined up before I removed the belt, but I DO NOT want to make a mistake.

The wrong timing could prove costly...
