  1. The temp gage is normally bouncing between 1/4 up to 1/2 up depening how much I move in 100 degree heat. If I go about 30mph it is at 1/4 but if I cruise at 45-55 in 100 heat it goes up to about 1/2. I rarely run my a/c now makes a horrid screech if I turn it on. I will check my rad when I get a chance to. I can probally do the light thing would it make a diffrence if it was day or night on it. I know my ele fan does turn on if it gets hot and the other fan does spin fairly easy when the car is off.
  2. If you just want a quick fix try a silicon sealer if you look at the thread of noobie questions and see the ones of my windshield you will see it there.
  3. Do any others make noise if you rev that high?
  4. When and if I decide to tackle my cancer and repaint I think this will be the route I will take cheap and good results.
  5. I normally drive my car at 3000+ rpms normally 3500-4000 range. I shift about 3700. I try and aviod my higer rpms because my car gets almost to the redline on the temp and engine gets extremley hot. If I go above the 4000 mark my car hates me loses some power and just gets really scarey to drive it there. As for the relays try and go after the eurpoean make cars. Any paticualer era as in 80's 90's or 00's. Also how much of a diffrence can removing the back seat make? Was gonna do a tear down to see how bad the rust really is.
  6. My dad worked as a saftey inspector for about 5 years. When I got the car the right one was about 20 degrees higher than the left one so I adjusted them to the correct angels. I just want to change the look of the lights so it's kinda misleading at night. I'm planning on making a sleeper out of 1 of the Loyales I got. As for the relays gotta go spend time in a jy now. Only bad part is if there is a subaru in a jy around me either there is nothing usuable or they want a fortune for it. Most people here drive them till there dead. I might be adventrous and see how badly the cancer is this weekend and tear my inards out of it and put it back. My parents both grew up in Cali an uncle in hawaii and more family here in SLC, so I have family that is use to rust and can fix it fairly easily. Looking for an rx kit now. As for audio kinda just looking around now for things. So for the pug tires I can just bolt the hardware of it in replace of the soob ones? I am a street driver got 4wheelers and a bugy for offroading. My mpg right now is around 20-22. I get bored driving home at night with no one around so I do 90 in it which scares the lving #*&^ outa me. Everything vibrates and rattles. As for my sleeper project this is what I got so far: EJ22 swap diffrent headlights good set of tires window tint upgrade all parts that need to be able to handle the new motor (dependaning on avability) rx kit custom exhuast(try to make it quite) strip back seat out replace front 2 seats with racing buckets and anything else i can come up with till i can afford the motor
  7. Your car is so clean. I think the old guy before me just stopped caring about how it looked. I got some beatifull pictures of my rust spots and missing metal. I'm betting big $$ to fix it all. At least the '93 I should be getting is rust free.(family won't let me get it till my dad and I go look at it) Just have to wait and find camera cord to upload the pictures. Oh and the avatar is not mine but same in apperance execpt for rust and bumper stickers.
  8. On your head loghts did you just get bulb replacments or whole new lights? Also should be getting pictures of the rust on my '92 red wagon.
  9. That's is true how wagons are every where there are at least 20 in my area that are the same age as mine not including all the news ones I see. And I love where I go to school right across the street from a soob dealer so I get to stare at them all day.
  10. In about a month's time or less I should be getting a '93 Loyale wagon and a bunch of extra parts for the 2 cars. Was gonna do 1 a ej swap and other as a daily driver. I was thinking about tinting windows or the car that has the ej swap. And never have even seen or heard kits for a Loyale. When you say rx kit are you refering to a mazada rx-7 or 8 or a brand and if so link to a site with them.
  11. I have been going over my '92 Loyale wagon. And other than the 5 main repairs needing to be done (rear hatch handle, pass side axle and boot, and the purge valve, also windsheild) I have decide to do some other things to it till I get another Loyale in about a month or less. To comaper which would be better as a daily driver and which will become my guina pig for the swap and other mods. Below is a list that I have come up with I want to know how realistic these would be and how hard it would be to do them. 1) Upgrading head lights to a better visual on roadway and astethic look. 2) Add either and second set of head lights and or doing fog lights. 3) Drop the front about and inch or so to give a little more aggresive stance. 4) Try to add a few extra hp to it. 5) fix the cancer on it. 6) Better audio in it. 7) Change tires to a bigger size (read somewhere a peugot 504 or 505 will fit as bolt on or slight moddifaction replacment) 8) and any more ideas either I can think of of any of you guys and gals can come up with. Untill I'm back gonna go play with my little red wagon. (as a side note what is a good mpg for early 90's loyales)
  12. How would I do it with the resiastors. I'm kinda illeterate in that area.
  13. I just checked the CEL and it is a code 35 which is a Purge Control Solenoid or circuit if I'm right. I know about the upgrade for it but I don't have time to go to a junkyard and search for one so would like auto zone or checkers have it or if someone has an extra one I can get. Also how do you get the caliper off I can get the bottom but not the top, I need to replace the boot on the axle since it tore itself.
  14. How hard and at an average pace how long would it take to rebuild an ea82 non turbo?
  15. Found out that I'm gonna be getting a 93 Loyale wagon like mine but in much better shape and tons of extra parts for them. So now I will use one as a daily driver and the other will get an ej20 or higer swap in due time.
  16. In response to CzarMohab: 1) I should be getting a full gasket set for free, I have tried to trace the oil leak but the whole under side is shiny black of oil. I do have a leak form for any amount of it sitting when not running, has a tendency to leak more when the is a slight lean to the left as in a 1in drop on the left side will cause the oil spot to be about twice the size. 2) I like the R12 better because it gets much colder and faster, but I think I have to change to the R134 because it's starting to have problems. 3) Still gonna keep looking. 4) I would rather keep it NA instead of turboed, was thinking about looking into a larger throttle body namely webber and also opening the exhaust a bit. And some other common sense things to do. 5) In the same boat. 6) Autozone says they do CEL so might do that. 7) I have been looking but keep finding either crap or things that require major modding to either body or some other part. Also I checked the descerption on this and it says any car done before 1990 and Loyales. So with this off to sleep for me.
  17. I currentley have a '92 Loyale wagon. What I'm wondering about 1) how common is it to a quart of oil every week and a half to 2 weeks 2) Also is there a way I can keep the R12 coolant in the a/c instead of changing it to the R134 3)If anyone knows where to get either a service manual and or a repair manual 4) What are some simple things I can do to try and get to the 100hp mark instead of the 90 or less I got 5) How close are the 93 Loyales to the 92 ones (I might be able to get a 93 wagon like mine just blue) 6) What is the easyest way to see why the CEL is on, since I have gotten it mine has been on the mechanic I got it from who I trust have known him for over a decade and is a family friend said it was a short somewhere in the system 7) Also what kinda things can I do to such as lights sound and such things.
  18. The engine is made for economy, so far other than the turbo is make the throttlr body a bigger one and put a bigger exhaust. Other than that not really sure what else to do on it.
