Brake Pressure Issue
nick@vlmspec replied to nick@vlmspec's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
pushed the fluid back to the MC. This could be it because it almost sounds like I can hear air near the MC. Where can I buy seals for it? -
I will be there, live like 5 minutes from there right next to Pac Raceways. Was going to bring the mr2 down, but if there will be other old schoolers ill rock the wagon.

Pics of my 89 Wagon

I see you are from bonney lake, I live in auburn. The majority of those pictures are up in the mountains/forest roads of snoqualmie. (went camping last weekend for my 20th bday, im young i know). The first picture is a place we call 'the pit' which is up in lakeland hills/lake tapps. Perfect for vehicles of this sort. -

im down, open diffed, no lift, 13's, 5mt 4wd 89 wagon haha whatever happens happens. I got a few buddys with trucks that might tag along. -
Well I am a new proud owner of a 89 wagon. I also am friends with the owner of SRP (Solar Reflections - A Subaru Shop In Auburn). Was going to see if anyone would be interested in getting together for a more of a 'Old School' Subaru g2g/bbq/ whatever. Somewhere in the seattle/south puget area. Ideas?

Brake Pressure Issue

Car is a 89 wagon, DL i believe (no power windows, locks etc..) Yes it has drums in the rear. I did not put the shims in, But i believe that will only make it so they dont squeak. I have left them out before. The ebrake works perfect and is SUPER firm. The pedal is now soft, was not before changing the pads. -

haha with time...its fun going through mud holes on some 13 inch all seasons -
Ok my pads were damn near completely gone. So I through a new set of pads on (rotors looked fine. I gently sanded them.) Anyways, now my pedal if I pump it it will get stiff, and then if i push long enough it goes soft. Or if just driving and I hit the brakes it will be super soft and close to the floor. The e-brake is SUPER firm and works well. Could it be the MC went out? I didn't disconnect any brake lines, and I am going to try and bleed out the front after work. Anyone else have an ideas?

Is this a relay I can purchase somewhere, or is it going to be a PITA to locate? -

Contact Performance Exhaust in Pacific. My buddy kevin works there, he will hook it up..tell them you know nick with the turbo mr2. -
was this ever figured out...mine does this also, and is from what it appears to be an all stock 89 loyale

Bought it Friday the 17th (my bday) and have been in love with it since. My other vehicle is a turbo mr2, I bought this to daily/beat up since I don't like driving the mr2 all the time. Plans for the wagon, a 3 inch lift and some 27 inch swampers. Welded rear diff..and some accessories here and there. anyways on to the pics.
