  1. So I just aquired a legacy gtb 08. They say its meant to have an aux input in the centre console, it doesn\'t. A google search and read through hints that i can either buy a subary gen part for $200 which is a 3.5mm socket atttached to an 8pin piggy back plug that goes in the back of the stereo or hack it. Hacking is easy if you can find what the pins do. Anyone have an idea? The only pin-out diagrams I can find for OEM are the clarion, mines a kenwood. Cheers in advance
  2. nope mines still a gutless but nice driving machine. I'll have it swapped to a GTb by the end of the year. Sick of thrashing gears to get over hills. compared to any other NA car I've ever owned its the slowest by a mile. either somethings wrong or it's just underpowered to haul nearly 1700kg of kerb weight around.
  3. in the boot, and tie the lead to the tie down loops in the boot to stop him jumping over the seats
  4. GOLD! had the same thing happen in the foz last year, the big plastic screw thread in the door pulled out, so I had to hammer it flat so it stays in. Should've seen the look of my (sober) wife as I'm holding the door open and my mate is in the passenger seat holding the ripped off door card in his hands
  5. No, the loom provides a plug for the back of the stereo, but provides two loose wires that dim the headunit when you turn the lights on. Taps are taken off this purple and black combo at each place you want things dimmed. The dash, AC, and clock etc. I find it funny there doesn't seem to be a feed from the headunit plug.
  6. all fwd's have inner and outer cv's else you couldn't have suspension movement, Citreon started the trend with their egg carrying weapon the 2CV.
  7. I was under the impression that anything free-er between the heads and turbo would decrease lag and quicken throttle response?
  8. true. Will try in the morro So the ones coming out the loom to feed factory stereos/AC/Dash are maybe not the only ones.?
  9. come on, I can't imagine that I've exhausted the collective knowledge of the forum?
  10. find a big patch of slushy gravel, do some donuts for a few minutes, then go "nope don't know what it is-sorry"
  11. My factory no-name headunit has two wires to dim the display when the lights are on. One is purple, the other black with dots. My new stereo only has one cable for dimming. Probing around shows the existing wires have +12v when lights on. I assume the purple one is +ve and the black gnd? But when wiring the dim cable to the purple one, nothing happens to the display. Is this a headunit thing or did I use the wrong wires? The factory service manual only shows purple and black wires for dimming but not much else. Cheers J
  12. I'm sure you can't get taken to court for confessing a crime that may or may not have happenned? But if you did get caught for something, web chat will be evidence. Those roads are awesome though. Good surface, good corners
  13. same engines, over 200kg lighter, no contest. But the rear wihbones in legacy's do make them comfy
