nick1208 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I think it would be kind of fun to try some coilovers on my 1994 Subaru Loyale. Raceland makes some pretty affordable and good quality coils. Can anyone tell me if any of these options will fit on a 1994 Subaru Loyale?Options are:- Subaru Impreza GC Coilovers (1992-2001)- Subaru Impreza GC Ultimo Coilovers (1992-2001)The rest are for newer model cars but here is the link if you are interested: http://www.racelandus.com/coilovers/subaru-coilover-kits.htmlThanks!

nick1208 Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 Also, they don't have to be Raceland coils. If there are any you know that fit please let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tractor pole Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 (edited) simple answer NO. coilover sleeves and stock struts. coilover sleeve kit for an impreza or legacy will fit. the front coilover will not fit unless you redrill the holes for the top plate and you have EJ or XT6 front five lug swap the EA and EJ strut mounts are completely different Edited May 8, 2013 by tractor pole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tractor pole Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 maybe I should clarify. coilover sleeves with stock struts will work. Like these: sample those coilovers you provided the link to will not work without lots of modification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like these: sample those coilovers you provided the link to will not work without lots of modification. Sorry I'm new to the whole suspension thing. So the ones i linked will not work. The ones you linked will work. Is it just a matter of having those sleeves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick1208 Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 Not saying you are wrong, but just going off what the ebay page told me:http://imgur.com/2x6RhvQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tractor pole Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 if you get the sleeves it is a simple matter of replacing the stock springs with those sleeves. the ones you linked to can work but you need a lot mote mods to make it work. search for coilover sleeves there a few members that did some really good threads on this very subject. happy hunting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tractor pole Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 you will not find one that is for a loyale. that kit is not directly compatible, but it can fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obk25xt Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 The ones on my wagon are Skunk2, they came off a 90-something Civic hatch in the P&P yard...... Jus gotta roll your sleeves up and get in there...... My advice, is to buy the CHEAPEST ebay 2.5" coilover sleeve kit you can get your hands on and start wrenching.... One of 2 things will happen, you'll either get it or you won't! And if you don't, you can always come back here and ask questions, here @ the USMB we applaud "do it yourselfers" and are more willing to help when we see you're mid project and need a hand..... :-) That was definitely meant to be smart assed, but really in a positive and endearing way.... Get in there and do it!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obk25xt Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 COILOVER SLEEVE KIT... Google it..... eBay it..... It will get you going..... Results will vary depending on attention to detail, mechanical inclination, and general "vision" of what you're hoping to accomplish.....
