Loyale 2.7 Turbo

Nope. In fact not all people are aware that there is a Proportioning Valve in their Third Gen Subaru Leone (EA82) / Loyale; it is hiding under the Body and seems to last forever ... the one on my "BumbleBeast" has thirty years of strong, rude use, since my Wagon is used in Honduran Roads; 60% of the time on paved streets with potholes and among crazy drivers on cities & highways; and 40% offroading on mountainds during weekends. This was answered properly by DaveT: Yes, the Emergency / Parking brake goes to the front on these EA82's and after long time of use, the parts gets worn and fail, especially to seal properly. Those are the reasons why I erased the Front Parking Brake mechanism from the Calipers, and I retrofitted an Awesome Rear Parking Brake, that despite of still be pushing pistons on the Rear Calipers, it is more durable and tends to develop less fails since the rear wheels doesn't do side to side turns, forcing the angle of the actuators; and the parts to fix those rear ones, are way easier to find. Kind Regards. ► Underlined words are web links to posts with further information on the subject.

Despite that the Brats are Great and the Subject of this thread, I really Really like the Sambar, the FF1 "Star" and the 360 Subarus. Awesome Collection. Kind Regards.

Awesome, but... Where are the Photos?

I agree with the Above Comment, but adding my Advice: Use those with the Wheel being OUTSIDE the Car, and the Tire inflated. Otherwise you'll damage the ball Bearings without noticing it immediately... Kind Regards.

That's Right. I want to add an Advice: Do not try to open the lines without the Safety equipment nor the proper knowledge, because it is a High Risk to your Health to be in contact with the Gas. Take Care. Kind Regards.

This is a Great Project Car for Sure, and 1990 was the Last year for Turbo EA82's Somehow the tires looks to be Awry / Deformed... Was the car sitting for Long time? Kind Regards.

AWESOME! Especially This multi lever / multi relation setup: I'll like to know more info about that, and see the Linkage setup. By the way, also my Li'l Daughter and my Wife, uses the Shifters on my cars, to hold their ponytail's scrunchies. Kind Regards.

So, please Share a couple of Photos with Us. I do not Doubt what you tell, but the Photos will add accurate info to this Database. Kind Regards.

Once again, Thank you for your Kind Words. I'm really Glad that you solved your Hitachi Carb problem. Kind Regards.

Thank you for your Kind Words. If the Rest of the carb is Alright, such mechanical conversion might help a little with acceleration and Low End Torque, but if your Hitachi Carburetor has issues, you Must address them and fix it, prior to do the Mechanical Conversion. Sounds like if your Hitachi Carburetor, might has backwards interchanged Main Fuel Jets, the Bigger one in the Primary (Low) Stage, and the Smaller one on the Secondary (High) Stage, so it worth check it; also check the Choke, it could be sticky. The emmission's stuff has nothing to do with it running Rich, unless some vacuum on the carburetor is misplaced... Kind Regards.

Your Subie is Looking Awesome! Seems like this is a "Popular" fail on our Subies Nowadays: This also happened to my "BumbleBeast" recently... ...Kind Regards.

Yes, or even Better: Modify it to be Mechanically Activated, see: ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/147163-mechanical-conversion-on-hitachi-carburetors/ Kind Regards.

Oh my God, that was Extreme! You can ask to this guys to obtain one of those for you: ~► Japan Treasure Hunt. Kind Regards.

Don't have the Original Part Number, but I used these for the Long ones: Which are 8 mm X 80 mm X 1.25 Pitch, found at the Local Napa store. Kind Regards.

No, those keys aren't mine, they belong to Nico: ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/126559-retro-gl-10-turbo-build/page-15?do=findComment&comment=1227066 Seems like they were offered in Japan, sometimes they shows on e-bay. Kind Regards.

Welcome! If the Brake switch on the pedal is in good working order and its wirings are alright, then I kindly suggest you to check the Fuse Box for Overheating and / or loose \ melted contacts, because if several electrical components are failing at once, sounds like the problem might be at their power source. Kind Regards.

Yes, these were Super Expensive at the Local Subaru Dealer back then...

So, you had those on a USDM car? ... Nice! Do you have some photos to share with us? Kind Regards.

The Plastic Housings / Glass Lenses' Headlamps with H4 Bulbs were also available in the LADM (Latin American Domestic Market), I've seen it in Honduras on certain 1990+ Loyales, and also the Local Subaru Dealer used to carry them brand New, as spare parts, I wanted to buy a set but it was extremely expensive... now the Subaru Dealer is Gone... Let me show you an Example of those H4 Headlamps from the LADM: The older Style, Metal Housing / Glass Lense, came with 9004 Bulbs. As far as I know, the Plastic ones never were available in the USDM, but the LADM ones are designed for the Left Hand Drive Cars, so they will spread the Correct light beam Pattern, for the USA Roads. You can find them online, at e-Bay: ~► http://www.ebay.com/itm/SUBARU-LEONE-LEFT-HEADLAMP-L-SERIES-01-84-06-94-/181155684402 Kind Regards.

That 1.19:1 relation belongs to the impreza Dual Range transmission, I have seen some of those here, in Honduras. The LADM (Latin American Domestic Market) got same Dual Range EJ Transmissions also, like JDM, EUDM, etc ... as you can see lots of photos and read info, ~► Here. Kind Regards.

Yes, the 1.3L EA65 engine was popular here, in LADM (Latin American Domestic Market), on the Second Gen Leone and the Third Gen Leone / Loyale Sedans. It came mated to a manual trans whose relations made it to feel like it was somehow "Enough" for the Car... However, it never came on Wagons, the smaller displacement on Wagons were 1.6L EA71 engines; the 1.8L were Optional on both generations' lineups. Kind Regards.

My HomeTown is on the Little island of Roatán, But I moved to the Mainland long ago... Kind Regards.

I went yesterday to search at places that sells RustOleum and other equivalent products... ...and couldn't find the Aluminium Primer, only the Standard "Multi Surface" Primers... Kind Regards.
