I think it is specific to non-ABS early (93-96?)Impreza caliper brackets, All I had to change was the slide pin and the Loyale front caliper went right on.

that looks awesome! nice work!

Agreed 100% I have a single port version of this header and It fits and sounds great!

The original post is 18 months old...

if you are on a mobile device it does not start the slide show...

what is the power steering pump off of? (I am going to assume a turbo car but what model/year) I think the remote reservoir might be the answer to my problem. thanks

if you don't get one at the show, I have one I can get to you. I am in Everett almost daily. TP

hmm, sounds promising from what I remember him telling me he had a couple issues with the car, one being clutch disengaging, new clutch was installed by a reputable local shop, I believe installing a new cable made it a little better. so maybe a little monkeying with it will set it straight, and two is the rear brake shoes are toast.

So I might have a chance to buy a 80 or 81 gl-5 wagon, What kind of mileage can I expect from a fwd 1600 manual wagon? Let's just say its a good price and its a clean eastern Oregon car with very little rust and little to 0 body damage.

damn sorry, after that brutal rain we had yesterday I spent this morning and half the afternoon trying to finish the roof on my house. I can take a pic for you in the morning. Ben

I can take a pic of how mine is hooked up, but you will have to wait until tomorrow.

I was surprised to find out that the turbo models were not available with a manual transmission. My cousin just picked up a '14 Forester 2.5 with a 6sp manual, he loves it but was disappointed to find that you could only get the cvt with a turbocharged model. I realize that the CVT offers some performance advantages, however I feel that the driving experience is better when you can choose how/when you shift and far outweigh the small performance advantage.

I was able to make loyale front calipers work on impreza spindles but you need to make sure the rotors are the same size and use the loyale caliper slide pins.

I have legacy struts and springs in my loyale, it will sit about 1 inch higher in the front than the rear. Just put the ea strut tops in place of the ej ones.

you could re-drill your hubs... but for $30 wheels probably not worth it.

late 70's to early 80's Toyota Tercel is what they look like to me.

I use this for my 97 Legacy motor in my Loyale, smartphone app is $5 on google play, if you have an iPhone you need the wifi version since apple does not support bluetooth data streaming. works great, check codes and clears live data options with active customizable dashboard

Cool! this will be a great alternative to the UEL headers! I love the way that the header that I bought from you sounds, fits and looks. the only thing I wish I could change about the UEL header is the ability to use the factory skidplate. (i know that is just the way it is) but I am still 100% happy with it.

your garage looks like mine, Subaru parts and home brew stuff. too bad I have little time for either.

Saw your wagon a couple months ago in Mukilteo at the Lighthouse park. Welcome and it looks good!

well, I have to say that the EJ swap is THE best upgrade I have done to the wagon yet. plenty of power, I can pass on the highway!! sounds awesome I have some new upgrades on the way, OBW 2 piston caliper front brakes EJ rear disk brake with rear parking brake not new but still not installed: XT6 front and rear swaybar Re-install the A/C (need to get a couple hoses modified and wire up compressor) second electric fan for supplemental cooling and a/c
