Saab wheels and sube == saabube?
75subie replied to bgd73's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
i wish Jesse (subafreak) was around to ask him. that would be neat to know that saab wheels fit. maybe they'r off a saab 96 or 99 or something??? -
looks pretty clean! especially for PA. nice deal Jonas, that is his bro's 86 hatch in the garage
-
well, it has 220k, but please don`t let that scare you. it runs great, so good that i am amazed the motor is original. i`d bet it`ll be good to go for 100k more easilly. the motor is very clean in and out. has a new alt and exhaust. tires are good. a/c works great. interior is pretty good also. car still drives nice and tight. it was well taken care of. a 50 yr old women from georgia was the original owner, and this car was her baby, she drove it everyday 50 miles or something. it has a cargo cover and lockable floor compartment to hide your stuff in. i put a new axle on it, but now it seems to click lightly on hard right turns, not sure why, might be defective, but it is ONLY noticed on hard right turns, this should still be fine for a while anyway, but may need replacing in the future if it starts clicking loudly when going straight. that is the only problem i can think of. it is really in great shape, and an exellent commuter car. these get around 35mpgs especially with the auto because it won`t rev as high. more pics:

wow!! that wrx looks awesome! that is amazing that its faster than a sti. my pops friend works at dch subaru, so me and him got to drive the demo sti, and man that thing was a rocket. i dogged a regular rex with his 91 vette tho, that was almost embarassing for subaru lol:lol: if you make it to one of the subaru meets, like the marcus dairy cruise or something, let me know i`d go too! i hate to sound like i`m trying to push my cars on you, but i do have another car for sale, not sure if your a honda guy lol. its a 89 crx dx auto with cold a/c and no rust. pgfi fuel injection, all original heres a quick pic:

strange thumping noise from 89 Gl wagon

the only thing i can think of is an axle. either that or a shot caliper. -

the parking brake is on the front wheels on subes, so it might be coming from the front. does this happen while the car is moving or when parked? when the motor is heated up or when the brakes heat up? maybe a warped or rusted rotor from sitting? -
hell, i`d sell you my car for $1450, and its a 1987 GL hatch rust free from WA state, 4wd dual range (hi/lo), stick, ea81 (no timing belts, timing gears) carbed, near mint interior, new tires on wide alloy wheels, 140k miles, etc, etc. for an extra 50, i`ll throw in a spare motor, tho this one runs exellent. oh, it has good working a/c, am/fm radio cass. and cruise control. i`m only an hour from somers. the only reason i am considering selling it is because i need a truck, either a toyota p/u or a brat. sorry for the hijack btw;)

you guys are under the mis-conception that ALL loyales leak oil, thats not true at all. some leak a little, some leak a little more, some leak none at all. i have had many ea81s, and ea82s that leaked very little or non at all. its not like a stream of oil will come out, even if the leak is bad, that will only happen if you have no valve cover gaskets at all. the loyale will feel quicker, as it is a 5sp and doesn`t have the 4wd crap weighing it down. both are non-interference engines, so if the timing belts break, no bent valves.
-
walden, right by newburgh, wallkill, etc.... i`d go with the loyale, but i`m an old skool freak:rolleyes: you'll like the awd in the legacy, but it won`t be any quicker than the loyale, no wheres near a rex;) .
-
hey Dan, welcome to the club! the legacy would be more comfy and better in the snow in my opinion, but the loyale would probly be better on gas, and equally reliable, plus its soooo mint. either way, you are only like an hour away, and in a u-pull-it yard 5 mins from my house, there is a complete loyale sedan there with come accessories that may interest you. it has a full set of oem mudflaps, trunk luggage rack, full set of loyale hubcaps, a/c, ect, ect. in the same yard there is a 92 legacy that is also complete. how do the cars compare in price? which one is cheaper? if you are ever in walden, and see this car, don`t be afraid to stop in!:

Pics: First decent offroading for my EJ Hatch!!
75subie replied to 88HatchMonster's topic in Off Road
lookin awesome Ryan:headbang: if you weren't so far away, i`d ride up to see it:D still haven`t put the tranny back in mine. blew my back out big time:eek: never knew that happened to young people lol:mad: trying to lift a 22re out of a toyo p/u with a weak buddy & no hoist in the middle of a field=bad idea:rolleyes: hopefully the meet pulls together, it'd be cool to get all the subafreaks in one place for a day of offroading -
well, there are no companies that manufacture a lift to fit justys, so the lift would have to be fabricated by you. this is not impossible tho, if you are good at welding. it has been done. actually the guy who did it is on here somewhere. i have to say tho, even at stock height, a justy should have enough clearance and gearing for mild off roading as-is
-
looks good! are you going to paint it all 1 color? i see you took the pics at a new hyundai dealer:lol: it fits right in:rolleyes:
-
New pix, tires mounted, fenders trimed... project 98% complete
75subie replied to TheSubaruJunkie's topic in Off Road
yeah, jibs is right. that hatch looked almost perfect in the pics when it was on Craiger's list:grin: now it looks just as cool in a beefier way:brow: looks awesome Brian, keep up the good work! be sure to take some pics on your offroad adventures, i`d like to see what its capable of. just out of curiosity, are you in that thing for say, less than $2500? -
