americanyouth replied to subaru_styles's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Yeah, how did you clean it up so well? -
Damn, I just heard about this. Sorry to hear Will..

some clutch replacing questions
americanyouth replied to JWX's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
???? I've had beer in plenty of bars in Montreal, Quebec and Toronto, and I've bought alcohol there as a 18 yr-old too. -
What should i do to this thing?
americanyouth replied to Phishphan59's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I'm sure you don't need anyone else to tell you that's probably not a smart idea... -
How about this site's classifieds?
-
Interesting.... I'd like to see you pull this off.

Freecycle Owns all! (new toy inside)
americanyouth replied to calebz's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Nice indeed. I need to get in on this freecycle deal! -
How can you just use the hubs? Don't you need to mount them to the knuckes? '05 STi stuff is compatable?

Pointy! Loose! OOH! DRIFT!

Interesting. FYI, word on the 2.0 forums is that the stock WRX turbo is a 13T, not a 13G, if thats what you're planning on using. -
I see a problem. If you were doing the swap with a GC, you'd need the '05 rear subframe to get those rear hubs in. Is that setup a fit for your RX?

Will, how were you planning on putting this 13G/VF7 combo together? I thought that IHI and Mitsu turbos were incompatable. -
I feel like a real n00b around seriously old-school Subies. Pardon my ignorance, but what exactly is a GSR?

Time to build a killer motor

Northwet, thanks for the heads up on the management. Exactly what control does this setup afford? Also, why MAP over MAF? I've heard the opposite is more tunable. -
What I've heard is that certain Leon/Loyales were made from recycled steel that was less durable than the new stuff.

Bump... I like this thread. -
Eh, most old Loyales I've seen are rusty. My 91's fenders have practically rusted off.... there's a hole in the rear quarter panel big enough to stuff your fist through. The car's still reasonably solid underneath, though, I never feel it flex excessively or anything. Hard for us to tell how bad yours is without seeing it, but I'd guess its solid enough for at least a few more years service.

I'm starting to think I'm a little too new school for my own good. I hear "GF" and I think 1st gen Impreza wagon.

Time to build a killer motor
americanyouth replied to Do It Sidewayz's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Me too. I'm trying to turbo an NA EA82. I'm planning on using EA82T plumbing, USDM WRX IC, or maybe an old AWIC if I can find one. Then, add water injection, boost controller, VF11 or VF7, maybe even a VF8. I'm going to need an AFC to prevent busted pistons, I know, but the more safegaurds the better. Anyone have anything on this MS&EDIS? I'm too lazy to search right now. -

How much have I got to spend? Not much... I was planning on some sort of AFC. How hard is it to use this MS&EDIS? -

What kind of management would you recommend? -
WRC goes back to its roots...
americanyouth replied to WJM's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Doubt it. Pretty sure Subarus will be going to the 5x114.5 pattern on the '05 STi hubs. -

You forgot something, Tim. Water injection - great safegaurd against det. It's definitely going into my EA82T.
