  6. can someone tell me if a Hi Low 5 speed tranny can be placed in a 1988 4wd subaru which at this time is a auto. Tranny went by by. I am wondering if the dual range tranny would fit and what would I need to accomplish this . Would the console of the dual range and molding fit on the newer 1988. What would be the cost and does anyone in the Portland Oregon area have experience doing this.
  7. Hello, I have a 1988 subaru gl wagon auto 4wd, would like to convert to hi lo 5 speed 4wd can it be done and anyone in pdx area that can do this,
  8. Hello, I don't mean to bring up an old subject but... My auto transmission works fine when warmed up. But when it is first started when not warmed up I put it in drive or reverse and it sits there for a short time and does nothing eventually it will engage and then everything is fine. Any ideas out there also I do not want to go to a 5 spd, just want to get this problem fixed, thanks
  9. I have a 94 legacy and would like to put a newer stock subaru cd/radio in it. Has anyone done this and if so can you let me know about it thanks!!
  10. Hello, I have a 1994 legacy. It looks like the radio area would be big enough to fit a newer subaru radio/cd player, Has anyone tried this I want to have a 6 player cd like in the newer subarus. I really dont want a aftermarket stereo. I would like to keep it subaru stock if you know what I mean. I am not sure if it will fit and then the big problem would be the wiring, Thanks for any help or guidance on attempting this project
  11. I have alway owned Loyales. I just obtained a 1994 legacy. I changed the oil and noticed alot of oil on the bottom of the engine. I am not sure but I think the engine is a 2.2. Are there any quirks to these engines about oil leaks. The first thing I will do is replace vavle cover gaskets, any other suggestions. Also what years of Leagacy's are the parts interchangeable, again I have not owned a Legacy before, thanks in advance
  12. Hello, I have a 1994 legacy with stock stereo and and cd player. The Cd player quit working. My question, can a radio/cd player from a newer subaru fit, ( I know the wiring is different) if so which ones, Also is my legacy the same from 1990 to 1994, what years are the same as far as parts go, thanks in advance
  13. Hello, I have a chance of getting a 89 subaru wagon awd auto with turbo. My question is that everytime I see a turbo listed for sale most of the time they have blown head gaskets or over heated. Is it bad mojo to get a turbo. I would like to get a replacement turbo engine but am I looking at a problem engine should I look for a legacy turbo instead. I like the loyal and it it clean. Can someone help me. ALso any good sub mechanics in portland are if I find out the turbo is the way to go, thanks

    Hello, has anyone tried to put in a newer radio/cd player out of outbacks or legacys into a loyal. I see lots of cd/am/fm radios for newer Subarus. I would like to up grade but stay stock or subaru thanks in advance!
  15. Hello, I know everyone is against auto but I seem to like it. I am not interested in changing to 5spd. Both are loyales. I have a friend that has a 1993 4wd 5spd that he blew the engine. He has brand new cvs on the front. Would those fit on my 1994 auto 4wd. I've been told the starter wont fit from the 5spd to auto. Is this true. How about the rear end is the ratio different so that it would lower my rpms on my auto. Is there anything else that is mechanical that will or won't fit. I have a chance to get it but if nothing mechanical fits then it won't help me. Thanks one and all for your insight and wisdom depa107a@yahoo.com
