I recently came across a '05 WRX STI engine with 27k miles on it for $300.00 so I bought it in an instant and I want to install it into my '93 EA82 Loyale 5spd 2wd, But before I do this I want to do my homework and make sure it will work. So can this be done with little modifications? Do I have to change out the transmission and suspension as well and the engine?? Any other advice will be appreciated very much Thanks in advance -493

I just passed through Farmington not too long ago coming back from Pagosa. Welcome to the site, What Subie would you be driving around?

Are you sure it wont do any harm?? I've been wondering the same thing -493

I have all the 4x4 parts to put into my 1993 Loyale, Will all of these parts just bolt on? Or will there be some welding and such needed? Any other help with this installation would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. -493

That was a good article, Thanks for that! Gave me a little more hope -493

Is there any way to keep the batteries in the truck charged?? I just bought the last 14 lights last night but I'm kinda scared that it's not going to work I'm installing numerous amounts of accessories, besides just lights. most of it seems damn near impossible. :sad:

Haha Yes, yes 16 Lights. I wanna be able to have pretty much 360 degree lighting (4 on each side) when I'm riding and wheeling at night. every pair of lights has it's own fuse. However is it possible to put one or two batteries in the trunk? and connect most (if not all) lights to those batteries in the trunk? And as for the 4 I have now, they are not connected to my headlights or anything else. I've checked fuses grounds basically everything. -493

Possible*

So I'm Installing 16 Baja Performance off road lights. I've installed 4 already on the roof in the front, Weird part is they only work during the day. How can this be possibly?? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance. -493

So I need to get a harness? I can't just cut the wires and hook them directly to the switches? (Sorry about all the questions, Electrical/ wiring is not really my area) Thank's -493

Hmm I'm stumped, I found the 5 wires (That was the easy part) but which wires are which?? Thanks -493

So How do I start to install the push start? Must I take out the ignition and find the wires from there? Thanks -439

I've been thinking of doing the same thing, My gauges are in the stereo compartment. Do you know if it's hard to wire it to the glove box? -439

So I'm going with Aluminum diamond plate steel and the bumper is something new, I'll post pictures when it's done. Brysawn your roof rack looks like it's coming along great. Thanks Markus for the links really appreciate it. Final touch on interior is rally netting all around

Ok thanks I'm gonna give them a call hopefully they'll have diamond plate steel along with the tubing. And what about skid plates? I was told I had to make a custom bumper, which i don't mind doing but is it worth it? Thanks -439

88subie that looks great, I like the lift. Are those stock rims?? I've been looking for rims for my Loyale without switching it to 5 lug. And GD I do have all that stuff I just need metal, And I'm located in Albuquerque, New Mexico There's not much out here besides dirt. -439

That looks great I'm actually starting my project to buld a roof rack. What kind of steel did you use? -493

I'm building all my off road equipment and I just need a little advice And help on building it, what kind of metal to use for this? What kind of brush guard would be best and can i attach a skid plate? Also, and finally where can I find sheets of diamond plate metal? Please post pictures so i can get an idea of where to start. Thanks in advance -493

I'll post up pics as soon as I can. Steering wheel does not have to come off I just need to get the ignition out so I can replace it and not have to start my car with a screw driver haha.

About two nights ago somebody broke into my Loyale and tried to rip off the ignition and they basically destroyed it. I cleaned it up a bit to where I can start it with a screw driver but I don't want to have it like this for long. How do I take the steering wheel and that whole assembly out?? Thanks in Advance!

They are both 5 speed transmissions. What other modifications are good to add on to Loyales?

Ok that helps. Any other advise would be appreciated Thanks

Loyale is 2WD and I would like to convert it to 4wd using it from a gl wagon. will it fit??
