  1. Pretty sure they need a new/used replacement, not locating it on the car. Are you sure the sender is bad, and not just the wires? Mine had a wire go bad where it goes though the tank. I stripped it all down, used some new fuel safe wires and epoxy to reseal it.

  3. We switched to the Amsoil assembly lube and have better results with it. Cheaper too. We use it with the factory bolts, yes. It has the least propensity for creaking of anything we have used. Same torque regardless of SOHC or DOHC. We degrease the bolts and we also brake-clean the block threads and chase them with a head bolt that has several die grinder vertical slots cut into it. I generally apply the Amsoil assembly lube in two vertical lines up the threads 180 degrees apart. And lube between the bolt head and washer - washer to head is left dry although some lube often finds it way there and isn't an issue. Don't over-lube the bolts - this can hydraulically damage the block if there is too much in the bottom of the hole. GD

  4. Much simpler, given they made 2006 Baja XT's, to just buy one and start with that. The Baja XT is very similar to a similar year STi except with a 5MT. Cost to do this swap is probably in the neighborhood of $10k in parts to do it the right way. You'll always be money ahead starting with a turbo chassis from the factory. GD

  6. Awesome to me ! Thanks man ! The construction, engineering, functionality, economics, and so much more to say about that breed the ff1. Make something contemporary of the same effort. Change the inboard drums to disks. Make the so called heater a bit better. Use of carbon fiber. Could make a version of that now under 1000 lbs I’d guess. And it would scream with a Euro style 1300 turbocharged. Mini eater. Ok I’m a dreamer.

  8. Hi everyone - thanks for the interest in the Loyale. The full car sold today to join an RX and another GL wagon owned locally. Best of luck to everyone on the hunt for parts!
