Loyale 2.7 Turbo

Found a Photo of a Subaru FF-1 "Sports"

I heard a Rumor about the Subaru FF-1 Star with twin Carbs and Disc brakes; I took a Ride once on a FF-1 Coupe, it had not the twin carb setup... I Believe those came in different trim levels and variants for different markets. ~► http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subaru_G Kind Regards.

You're Welcome! I will like to see Photos of your Subaru, could you post some? Especially if you do the Lowering. Kind Regards.

Awesome! Driving your car must feel like a Tank, crawling mountains now. I really Love the Exhaust sound your Legacy has. Kind Regards.

You're Welcome!

Great! ... ... I'll Love to see your Photos from that Races! Kind Regards.

As far as I know, the "S" Version came in the Sporty Models, However, Subaru did made other Sporty versions in the Past; the First EA81 Dual Carbs, had twin Hitachis on a Single intake manyfold, but those engines already got the Reverse valves, etc... So the Twin Weber Carbs setup was the Last "S" Sporty engine with twin Carburetors from Subaru, in 1983; the same Year they intruduced the Turbo EFi engines, so very Few Twin carb EA81 engines where made, even fewer with the Late twin Weber Setup. But subaru did the Twin Carb (Hitachi) setup Before, in the EA63 and the EA71. Here is a Picture of the Twin Carb EA71 on the Subaru Manatee: More info on the Subaru Manatee, on this Thread: "Strange & Weird Subaru Stuff" Some EA63 Sporty versions, came with Weber Carb and Weber intake manifold: Kind Regards.

Your answers are in the Following Thread: ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=135711&page=2 Feel free to ask any other Question about my Suspension Mods in that thread, in order to avoid hijack this one. Kind Regards.

The Whole Car does Look Awesome!

Yes, that's what Happens when you Switch from Worn old Coils to Brand New ones. Be Careful with the Part Numbers: Only the one I Posted on the Previous page, belongs to the Adjustable Shocks, other part numbers must belong to the Fixed Lower (2WD) or the Fixed Higher (4WD) Shocks. The Local Subaru dealer has Three, Brand new rear adjustable shock absorbers in stock, each one has its brand new coil Plate, but they ask Lps. 1,700.ºº Each set (Our Currency, the "Lempira" is 20 X 1 US Dollar, so it means = $ 85.ºº each Set) So, they're Expensive. Kind Regards.

For those who don't want to use Toyota 4Runner Rear shock absorbers, the Subaru ones does work great with the Honda Accord's Coil Springs. Let me write some information about the Subaru EA82 Rear Shock Absorbers: Originally Subaru Developed two different Rear Shock Absorbers, one seems to be Taller than the other, but the Main Difference is on the Base where the Coil Spring sits: the 2WD version has that base welded to the Absorber's body, Two inches Below the place where it comes welded for the 4WD versions. but suddenly, instead of Making Two different Versions of the Same Shock Absorber, one with the Lower welded Base for the Coil Spring, and Another with it welded 2" up, Subaru reinvented the Rear EA82 Shock Absorber, using an "Adjustable" Base system. So you can Move by Hand (Prior to put in the Coil, of course) the Base, to lock it in the Lower Place (as 2WD where) the Upper Place (as 4WD where) or in the Middle (as XT's?) The Subaru Part Number, of the Rear Shock Absorber which is one-size-fits-all, that features the "Adjustable Height Base" for the Spring Coil, is: Subaru 21007GA471 which is Made by Kayaba, Japan. The Kayaba Part Number for it, is: KYB 341215 These are Photos I have of the Rear EA82 "one-size-fits-all... Models" Adjustable Shocks: Those are Sold without their adjustable Base... You must purchase it Separately! The Part Number for the Spring Coil's Base (seat) is: 21025GA230 Here you can see the Base Placed in the Highest Notch: And here, with the Base placed in the Lowest Notch: Yes, there are 2" inches of Difference... I am Glad that my Subaru "BumbleBeast" runs on 'yota 4Runner Shock Absorbers, as you can read, ~► Here. No More Rear Shock Absorber problems... Kind Regards.

I found a website which has those Shock Absorbers for sale: ~► http://www.subarupartswebsite.com/OEMParts/subaru-153/2/21007GA471.html They Also sell the Spring Coil's Base (seat) for those: ~► http://www.partswebsite.com/subarupartswebsite/oemparts/subaru-153/21025ga230-21025ga203-21025ga230.html

Let me Explain it Better: What Subaru did is: instead of Making Two different Versions of the Same Shock Absorber, one with the Lower welded Base for the Coil Spring, and Another with it welded 2" up, Subaru reinvented the Rear EA82 Shock Absorber, using a "Regulable" Base system. So you can Move by Hand (Prior to put in the Coil, of course) the Base, to lock it in the Lower Place (as 2WD where) the Upper Place (as 4WD where) or in the Middle (as XT's?) The Subaru Part Number, of the Rear Shock Absorber which is one-size-fits-all, that features the "Regulable Height Base" for the Spring Coil, is: Subaru 21007GA471 which is Made by Kayaba, Japan.

I Agree, Absolutely! Even Subaru is selling one-size-fits-all struts Now... I Already asked to the Local Subaru Dealer Salesman by Phone, and he Told me that they are selling only one for either (2WD or 4WD) models. Kind Regards.

Great! ... ... Please Keep us updated with any Advance, and thank you for Sharing your info, experiences and photos here. Kind Regards.

Yes, You can see the "S" (from "Sports") on the Cover, here: Kind Regards.

I have had the 2WD Shock Absorber, Next to the 4WD one: Maybe the ones you've seen were Aftermarket Replacements? Kind Regards.

Which was the File Name? ... Maybe it still exist somewhere on the net. I Remember MegaUpload... ...this Screen Caption was to check the Download Speed. Kind Regards.

I Run my "BumbleBeast" with Toyota 4Runner Shock absorbers, as you can read in the above posted Link, those are the same tall than the Subaru's 2WD shock absorbers, but those are Stiffer, intended for Loaded use in offroads. Kind Regards.

The 2WD and 4WD Rear shock absorbers: both have the Same overall Measurements, but there is one Difference: The trail arms, of the front wheel drive (2WD) Subarus, have a different mounting point for the Shock Absorbers than their four wheel drive (AWD) counterparts: the 2WD ones mounts the shock absorbers in the position where normally goes the constant velocity joint (Axle), while 4WD ones have the said mounting point, two inches higher on their trail arms, to let the axle pass. So, Subaru made two different Rear Shock Absorbers for the EA82: the Front wheel drive (2WD) Models' Shock Absorbers, has the base plate for the coil spring, welded to their bodies, two inches (2") Higher than the four wheel drive (AWD) ones, to compensate the lower mounting point on the trail arm; and both models use Same Coil Spring. So, using a 2WD shock absorber, on a 4WD subie, will lift the rear, due to the Higher position of the Coil spring's base.

I Kindly suggest you to do a Test of the e-Bay bulbs you purchased, connecting one directly to a the Car's Battery, then Start the engine and Rev it up for a While, (ten minutes at least) to see if those Bulbs could Hold the 14+ Volts from the Car's electrical system without burning; Prior to install them to the electronic board. The idea is to Avoid damages to that Board, and wasting of Time, in case they fail. Also, you can use a Common Resistor for all the Bulbs in that Board, usually they Share the same Positive imput (+) Marked as IGN in the rest of the Subaru Instrument cluster's boards. Kind Regards.

That is a Good Question... The T-5 and T-10 Led Bulbs I Used, came with Built-in current limiting Resistors... This question and Answer are from the Earlier posts of this thread: But the "Bulbs Only" will require Resistors. Maybe you could install some in the Power Line?
