zukiru Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 (edited) Been my daily driver and rallyx car for the past year our so. Bought it about two years ago. Now that i have a new daily I'm going to finally do something i always wanted to do. An engine swap. Not a lot of Subarus here though. Getting parts will be a challenge. Hoping to build the hybrid "franken motor" and keep it mostly stock looking. Edited March 29, 2013 by zukiru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matts87glsedan Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 boy those are both very good condition! one day, maybe i'll have a car that isnt a rust bucket, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zukiru Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Imagine what they'd be like if i had your fabrication skills! You need to pick one up from this region. I have had very good luck getting them cheap/almost free and very little rust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zukiru Posted April 24, 2013 Author Share Posted April 24, 2013 Another set back. Rusty fuel line under the car sprang a leak! Something else to fix. (alright though i love tinkering on the xt) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zukiru Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 So... Opinions not needed, but being entertained nonetheless. Franken 2.5 Ej22 Ej22 turbo Ej22 franken turbo Ej18 franken turbo Maybe try and get some more go outta the EA82? Cams head work etc... Or even crazier... Needs to still be rally cross viable. Maybe.. Coif always rx the loyale... (but its starting at a handling disadvantage) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zukiru Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 (edited) With rally x fast approaching. Looks like I'm staying stock class this season. fixed my fuel line and ordered some intake gaskets. Edited May 3, 2013 by zukiru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zukiru Posted February 21, 2014 Author Share Posted February 21, 2014 Bought ej22t. So excited! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zukiru Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Oh my. I had no idea the turbine wheels were so. Large. And the loyale is tired of workin to pay the bills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l75eya Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Wow, those rims/tires are insane on the XT! Love the way the GL looks with the alloys!Are you hanging on to the rings and center caps for the steelies that were on the GL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zukiru Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 I don't think ill need the chrome stuff. If I decide to get rid of them (which is likely) you can have dibs. Planning a much smaller tire and some fender flares most likely for the turbines on the xt. Or I'll lift the loyale and stuff them on there with some all terrains.

l75eya Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Awesome! Thanks zuk! I think those turbines would look awesome on the Loyale. Thought it was a gl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooner Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Thank you sir! I thought I was the only one with turbine style wheels on here?! Now we must battle. Ha. I searched FOREVER on craigslist for these! I had some turbine wheels on my first car well truck an F150 and thought it'd be awesome to put them on a subie. Found these for $60! They came off of a datsun I think the guy said? But they're 14X6 6 lug, and they have ZERO damage! Which makes me want to put my steels on if I want to go off-road anytime soon haha.
