you can use a turbo crossmember with a N/A engine, but not vice versa, you will need a whole new exhaust, the 2 wiring harnesses. reason i say both is that one goes from 1 ecu plug out over the drivers fender and to the intake manifold, also to the alt, fluse block, headlights, horns, fans, and ABS pump. then the second harness hooks 2 plugs to the ECU, then to the fuse block and chassis harness, then to part of the dash, behind the heater box, and out into the engine bay between the heater hoses. hooks to tranny and the map sensor and boost solnoid on the passenger strut tower, grounds and FWD fuse, also over to cruse control, A/C, and by the brake booster. those are different because of the boost solnoid as well as the other sensors and such, you will need to change ALL that to do it properly as well as the ECU and/TCU if it is auto. better off putting the car up for sale and let a enthusist put it back together and finding yourself another non-turbo gen1 legacy.

Winter storm damage to the XT! No's!
The Scooby replied to Mr. Carb's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
i have the rear glass pulled already in great shape, and if you want to make an appointment i can have it installed as well PM me if intrested. -
not all, i have over 30 older GL wagons and such on our lot at my work, so if you need something shoot me a PM anytime. we are a subaru only wrecking yard, and i KNOW we have more then a few good 5sp d/r tranny's. problem is, most have really high milage, so trying to find one in good shape is key, thats why i wont sell one unless i test drive it first to see what it feels/sounds like.

Urgent: Drive shaft broke: 88 GL10 turbo AWD
The Scooby replied to M45's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
or just find a reputiable subaru shop, it should like they are gonna try to rape you. take it home, swap drive lines, fix shifter cable, fill tranny with fluid and you SHOULD be fine. all you need is to jack the car up and put it on stands, remove the 4 12mm nut/bolts that holds the drive shaft to the rear diff, remove the 2 14mm bolts the hold in the carrier bearing to the chassis and remove. replace in same steps with new driveline. replace shifter cable, could 12mm's and such, fill the tranny with ATF and your good to go. i have the shifter cable and driveshaft in stock at my work, if your intrested shoot me a PM and ill get it shipped out to you asap. -

+100 it dumped because the drive shaft came out, put in a new driveline, refill the tranny, and your good. also the tranny has NOTHING to do with the engine starting, thats another issue on its own. -
yes the 02/03 seats are height adjustable on the drivers side, and VERY COMFY!! i have them in my 96 Impreza outback sport and LOVE them. you can fit them into a loyale, but you need to modify the loyale brackets onto the WRX seats, i have done it and have 97 legacy outback front seats in my lifted 86 wagon w/ seat heaters.

you reuse your stock air box, but put in a nice filter like a K&N, Perrin, STi, HKS, etc. the cold air/short ram intakes are worthless without a tune. so i recommend you wait and save your money so when you put on your intake have the engine retuned afterwards, otherwise you can make LESS power then before.

if you coasted off to the side and shut it off you will be fine. when a auto tranny gets low on fluid it simply wont work, i say get a new drive line, i have one if you need it, refill the tranny and see what it does. -
find someone else with a subaru and borrow their spare, i would almost bet it will work, i do it all the time at work.

EJ tranny shaft 1/2 inch too long?
The Scooby replied to ninefourteener's topic in Subaru Retrofitting
if the torque converter is not seated it wont go in, if the clutch is not properly alligned it will not mate all the way. -
mounts are narrower on a 81 compared to a EA82, i know this because im trying to fit monsteru's old rear bumper onto my EA82 wagon
