  1. Alright, did some work last night. Motor is ready to come out. What do you guys use for an engine stand? O'reillys has one for $70. Good deal? I think i will just rent a engine hoist.
  2. Hello Subie world, I recently started a new project. 94 loyale, 5spd, 214k, non turbo, beat and not maintained for a long time (by the looks of it) First day Drove it to my house, barely. bogs real bad in all rpms but 2.3k. P.O. said it uses a quart of oil per week and that it needed new MAF and 02 sensors. After driving it i can tell it needs a clutch real soon. Opened the hood and there is oil and gunk everywhere. So since i have time, and a second car. My plan is to fix it up myself. This is a big project (for me). The most I have done before is simple stuff, brakes/oil etc.. I am sure I will need some help/advice so hopefully there are some good peeps on this board. My first question is what is the best site for parts. Parts i know i need are clutch kit/ full engine gasket kit etc, MAF and 02 sensors.. Also the intake boot is torn so i will need to find one of those, Maybe junkyard.. Second Q is should i be looking at performance parts or upgrades? I plan to pull the motor to do the headgaskets and such, are there any common intake/engine/exhaust mods for the loyales. Not looking for it to be as fast as my wrx was, just want it to be reliable and able to climb mountain passes a bit stronger. Thanks!!
