Loyale 2.7 Turbo

You're Not Hijackin' the Thread. The Idea of this thread is to Share your Experiences, info & Photos with such LED Bulbs Retrofitting, so your Posts & Photos are Welcome. Now I'll Love to see how the Whole instrument cluster Looks Like, Lit in the Night! Kind Regards.

About this: I've seen Rear LSD Differentials on Gen II Leones (EA81's) with 3.889 ... ... "Almost" 3.90, isn't it? Kind Regards.

Well, I've seen many Subaru Conversions on VW's ... ... Beetle, Carmann Ghia, and Vanagon, there's even a Forum in USMB about those, Here: ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/forum/29-vanagon-conversion-discussion/ But I'll Like to See Photos of your EA82 engined Bug. The Thermo Switch on the Radiator of the Non-Turbo EA82 is Designed to Open (turn On) when temperature reaches 203º F (95º C) and it Closes (Shuts Off) when Temperature Downs to 194º F (90º C) More info on this Thread, ~► Here. Kind Regards.

Yes, I Run my "BumbleBeast" @ 20º without any problems. Kind Regards.

You're Welcome! Also I Like such Small Cars, but they're pretty Scary to Drive here, in my Li'l & Crazy Country. In honduras there are many two Cyl. Subarus, like the First & Second Gen REX, the Sambar Van & Bus... these models were available in Great Britain? Kind Regards.

Nice Project! I've Seen Subaru EJ Engine Swaps in many Non-Subaru Cars... Remember the 2 Cyl engines from the Subaru Rex, Sambar, etc? ... ... and yes, the Flat Twelve: ... One of those was Sold on e-Bay some years ago ... If he want to Keep the Saab as Front Wheel Drive only, an easier and Cheapier solution is to Use the EJ Gearbox from an Early Legacy that came Factory as FWD only. Kind Regards.

Thank you for your kind replies... I don't recall to see another Distribuitor with a Rotor Held in Place by a Screw, only those Hitachis. I Don't Like Hitachi Stuff too Much, from Carburetors to Hard Disk Drives... Hitachis are problematic stuff, especially with age. Sorry again... this time for Hijack this thread. Kind Regards.

Sorry... that wasn't my intention. When I first readed this thread's title, I was thinking about a Dying ignition Module, So I was about to suggest this Writeup on the Subject: ~► Here. But I'm Glad that it was an Easy Fix... the Screw that Holds the Rotor... I was surprised that I Never think about those... Kind Regards.

Awesome! My Carb'ed EA82 Subie came with the Nippon Denso Distribuitor, No Screws to holding the Rotor like the Hitachi Distribuitors. Kind Regards.

Lol! ... ... Yes, it works fine for me. The small piece of Metal can be removed, no problem, see: Then, you'll need to install the proper Return Spring, which is available at the Subaru Dealer, and is Cheap: The Facebook link doesn't work for me neither, I Believe that he must add you as his friend in order to gain access to his private photo album(s) Kind Regards.

You're Welcome! There are some of those Small Subaru 360's in USA, also some USMB Members owns them, like the World Famous "Stanley, the Wonder Van" See Here: ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/113668-meet-stanley-the-wonder-van/ Also you might like to see a Video of some 360's in a Mini Cars' Meeting: Kind Regards.

Yes Timothy, The Earlier Subarus where all based on the 360, some variants from the 360 basic sedan where the Young, the young SS, (From Super Sports which had a slightly Bigger engine and partially removable soft roof) the Maia (with a Bigger 450 engine), the 360 "Lotus" also included a Convertible (Few where made) then came the 360 Wagon, the 360 Pick Up and the Famous 360 Van (Micro Bus) in which the Tortoise was Based. Late 360's included the "Automatic Clutch" feature mated to a three speed gearbox. All of them came with 10" rims and yes, the Lugs where near the Rim lip as you noticed, it is How ALL the 360's where made. More info & Photos on the "Strange & Weird Subaru Stuff" Thread. Look at the Above posted Link. Kind Regards.

I had similar situation, but istead of Trans-X, my Wife's car Automatic Transmission was somehow "Fixed" with a ATF Flush, Fresh ATF + Lucas Transmission Fix. Two Years and the Thing is Working Awesome, Holding Strong and Shiftin' Smooth as Silk. More info on this Post: ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/101718-kia-sephia-sporty/page-5?do=findComment&comment=1106242 Kind Regards.

The Mini Brats in the Photos of this Thread, are Beyond Awesome! You're a Lucky Guy, owning Two mini Brats! Kind Regards.

...also it could be some bad Grounding to the ECU ... or the ECU is failing somehow...

Awesome! Low Battery! ... Try Jumping it. Kind Regards.

Thank You!

The Hatchback, Yes... Up to 1989. See: ~► Here. Kind Regards.

The Electric Fan also aids to Cool the Engine when the Temp Gauge reaches near 3/5 in order to Prevent Overheating; so I Kindly suggest you to throw it Back there; That's the reason for a thermo switch on the Radiator. Kind Regards.

2003 Kia Spectra:

I Know it is Not a Subaru, but I Like to Share few Photos of some of the Many LED Bulb Retrofitting I've Done in other Cars' instrument Clusters, in Example: This one went from This: To This:

Remember that LED Bulbs does Have Polarity (+/-) So, if they doesn't Lit, Remove their Socket from the Instrument Cluster, Turn it 180º and place it there again.

About This: Remember that LED Bulbs does Have Polarity (+/-) So, if they doesn't Lit, Remove their Socket from the Instrument Cluster, Turn it 180º and place it there again. Feel Free to Share your LED Bulb Retrofitting Photos & Experiences in this Discussion Thread about that Subject: ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/69467-ea82-dashboard-backlights-upgrade-to-hid-white-led%C2%B4s/page-6 Kind Regards.

Check for Loose / Corroded \ Burnt connections on Fusible Links / Fusible Box \ Relays. Kind Regards.

There is some kind of Confusion between the "T" (Tubular) Bulbs Names / Nomenclature and I've received some PM's and e-Mails from people asking more info about them, especially Cross-Reference info & Measurements; since I've retrofitted White LED Bulbs on Many instrument Clusters (Not only on Subarus) I made an Easy Pictured Guide, in order to Help you to Understand those "T" Bulbs. These are the Most Common Bulbs for instrument Clusters: Here's an Easy Visual comparison Guide: IMPORTANT NOTE: The Subaru EA82 / GL \ DL or Loyales, only uses the T-5 and the T-10 Wedge Bulbs. The other Bulbs are here for Reference only. The Wedge Bulbs Themselves are sold separately from the Sockets, But beside those "Wedge" bulbs, instrument clusters' also Use another kind of Bulbs which comes already Mounted with the Base, those are known as "Neo Wedge" Bulbs and are intended to be non-removable Bulbs ... Despite that you can remove 'em from their bases, those aren't sold separately. The Neo Wedges are Known as the T3, T4 and T5 and comes either with Long or Short Bases (which could be Black, grey or white) usually are placed behind the Transmission's shifter position numbers on Automatic cars with such display on the instrument cluster. (You know: P, R, N, D, 3, 2, 1) Short Base LED Neo Wedges: Long Base Neo Wedges: I've already retrofitted LED Bulbs on 17 different Cars of many Brands and counting, it started with my own "BumbleBeast" Subaru long time ago, then my Wife's "KiaStein" then my Dad asked me to do that on his Cars, then some Friends who saw my cars at Night asked me to do such retrofitting on their cars and some friends of those friends too... it is the Snow Ball Effect somehow ... By the way, I had to build my Own Neo Wedge Long Base LED Bulbs (for Kia, Hyundai, etc...), because it was easier for me than to Buy 'em online and wait ... I have to Cut the Base from a Used Neo Wedge Bulb, then remove a Wedge T-5 LED from its base and weld its electrical contacts, the LED Bulb already comes with its resistors; as you can see here: I also covered one of those I Made, with a Condom-like Green Rubber, in order to Dim a little the Brightness in a 2003 Kia Spectra's instrument Cluster that I Retrofitted onto my Wife's 2000 Kia Sephia (Which also runs with a 2003 Spectra engine) the "KiaStein" ... it is for the "D" (for Drive in a Automatic trans model) Display on the cluster. Kind Regards.
