so im assuming the passive is the non auto belts? center console looks that way

ITs an 87 and that makes it an L body. I've never seen an L-body with auto belts. Not saying they don't exist. Just never seen one.

No, I haven't. On the other hand, there's no such thing as an 87 Loyale as far as I know. That didn't come out until 91.

You sure about this? I don't have them, 1990 Loyale Turbo. I have the manual seatbelts. I don't think I would have bought it if it had auto seatbelts :rolleyes:

I's gots a 1990 Loyale Turbo :grin: I believe 1990 was the year they changed the name to Loyale, it was also the same year Subaru introduced the Legacy IIRC...

that is correct 90 was the first year of the loyale and the legacy. and the only year they made a loyale turbo. but they did make a subaru rs for 2-3 years but dropped it since it competed directly with the legacy turbo. which would you have chosen? ea82t? or ej22t? :lol:
