300+ HP Subaru Loyale Wagon

A 1990 Subaru Loyale wagon with a tuned up EJ255 from a 2007 WRX. Drivetrain sourced from a Subaru XT.
The bad part is that this engine was only in the car temporarily. It was soon installed into a much newer Subaru, which means no more videos. I really wish I had been able to get more footage!
This car belonged to my Subaru enthusiast buddy, I film many different vehicles as well as my own.

what did that front lip come off of?

[CorvusCasull]

No idea. I'm thinking it was made by the previous owner.

@ftgforlie The front lip looks like the one installed factory on the 1990 Subaru Loyale RS. I didn't know such a car existed until I paid $350 for one two days ago. I've owned 14 Subarus over the course of 12 years and this is the first Loyale RS I've seen. The Subaru XT might have had the same spoiler but I'm not certain about it.

Oh, is that what you guys are talking about? I thought he meant the strange little metal bumper/guard. That thing looked custom made.

I've never owned a Subaru, but have three friends that are huge fans of them. (Especially the owner of the Loyale in this video!)

and too bad the ej25 couldn't stay in the loyale... what a sleeper it would have been. that is, if you could somehow hide that intercooler lol

[CorvusCasull]

I agree 100%. It was such a ridiculous car/swap. I always thought the intercooler made it look like a kid with braces, or a diver.

[gojogingo]
