Livestrong14 Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Hey guys, I am looking at getting a 91 Loyale wagon (1.8L NA 5-speed 4wd) It will be my dd while my legacy turbo is getting work done, as well as my snow, road trip, camping, and haul friends around car. Plans incude: 2" lift kit Pug wheels Meaty tires 2 1/2" catback exhaust snowboard rack sound system fog lights I also was wondering what kind of LSD I could toss into it? Any rear diffs swap out? What is the final drive ratio? What is the best way to lift it? What are my wheel and tire options? Thanks a ton! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CR86GL Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 + one for SJR I have an 86 GL with 4" lift and some 28" BFG's on 15' AA rims. I did have to do a little cutting, but nothing major. I run everything else stock and have no complaints except for it being even more underpowered, but that's what 2.2 's are for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pooparu Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I would swap that transmission out for a mid to late 80's GL D/R 4wd. The push buttons suck balls.:-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gloyale Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I would swap that transmission out for a mid to late 80's GL D/R 4wd. The push buttons suck balls.:-p It's excactly the same tranny without the low range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy FitzGibbon Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Hey guys, I am looking at getting a 91 Loyale wagon (1.8L NA 5-speed 4wd) It will be my dd while my legacy turbo is getting work done, as well as my snow, road trip, camping, and haul friends around car.

What is the final drive ratio? What is the best way to lift it? What are my wheel and tire options? Thanks a ton! Final drive ratio should be 3.90 in a manual Loyale. Most LSDs are 3.70 (they came in RX models and some turbo cars). Instructions on changing the ratio are in the USRM. Other than not having the lo range gears and being vaccum shifted, the single and dual range transmissions are the same. You won't want to increase tire size too much if you want to go off-road with a single range transmission. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
