ive been to an american car shows and there were more american cars and nicer looking ones in the customer carpark than in the show itself, could of saved some money and just looked at the cars in the carpark

i kind of like it, its not really a crime when its a one of a kind and has improved the look of the car

it likes he couldnt affort an mitsi evo so brought a subaru imprezza and dressed it up to look like an early evo

i agree with you there. They charge enough to list a car as an auction or classified atleast they could do is to do a security check on the car to make sure its not stolen or money owing on it or wanted by the police to protect the buyer and stop theives from using their service to sell the stolen or a car with money owing on it.

you can download a sub box program where you enter the specs of what the sub requires in the manual and the space you putting it into and the thickness of the wood you will be using and it will tell you the final dimension for the box one called winisd sub box designer which i think is still free a payed program called BassBox Pro will most probably be more expensive to make than to buy one of those prefabbed ones but the custom one you or somebody you know is good with basic carpentry would be stronger and made to spec for that particular sub and should sound better but as everybodys ears are different some might not tell the difference between a custom box to a prefabbed one just like the difference between an mp3 to cd or dvd-audio all you need is a screw driver, some screws, no more nails(i didnt use this i used one that creates a rubber seal for vibrations, jigsaw to cut hole for sub and mdf wood(i brought some 18mm mdf from bunnings and got them to cut it on the saw to my peices so all that required was to glue and screw it together. also if you going for a ported box than a sealed one have a look at those programs as i think they might be able to do them as well but probably be a bit more involved in the construction and maybe best left to a pro custom box builder for ported boxes or get a prefabbed ported one you could use the program to get your measurements so you can figure how much wood you\'ll require then you could price all the materials from an hardware store and have a ruff idea on how much it wiill cost to make one excluding the price if you pay somebody to make it for you

damn missed out, does it come with the smaller pipe for the turbo solinoid thingy to connect?

what a load of plastic to go brittle over time and cost a fortune to fix what yeah and models are the plastic manifold from? Why not the vac hose that comes off the BoV?

yeah i asked if they tested the fuel pump to make sure it was reading correct presures and they said it reading good but only tested at idle didnt test at high revs as might have totally finished the job are there any cons with split rail fuelling?

tried sent it to winger when i heard the problem and they ran test without stripping engine down. but could not tell me why it failed they have put on the reciept saying it was low on engine oil by 100mls even tho the dipstick has the oil about 5mm higher than the max line

Hi, havnt wound the boost up (dont have a boost tap or any other controller installed just the factory ecu, the car came with the bigger exhaust and lowered from japan Only ever boosted hard when its warmed up never driven hard or over 2,000rpm when cold and also have never redlined it only been to 6,000 anything more your wasting your time as it does\'nt make any more power past that just my opinion Only run the best bp98 have never put anything less since the last rebuild never chipped the ecu still factory as far as i know im the first nz owner dont know what happened over japan winger did tests and couldnt come up with a reason why it ran the bigend. I just want to know if there is anything else that can reduce the risk of running another i did overheat that didnt make the temp guage read hot but could hear bubbling water in the radiator but fixed that pretty fast as it was a partial blockage in the heater core but that was like a year before the bearings went maybe that might have shorten the life. i don\'t know i\'ve used those engine flushes when changing oil could that be the problem

Anybody know a good place in Hamilton that rebuilds Subaru turbo motors to go in my Subaru 96 wrx sti v2 wagon. I have ran a bigend before and had mechanical breakdown insurance got winger to put a brand new shortblock, and now 30,000kms, 4 and a half years later it has done another bigend but i don\'t have mechanical insurance now so have to pay for it and winger wants too much(can buy a new car for what they want) so just want a rebuilt longblock sti exchange basis fitted with warranty. or rebuild my current motor that has noisy lifters so would need some work done on the heads. any suggestions on what i should do as i have only got around $3000 total to spend and would also like anything that can be fitted for extra preventative measures so that it doesn\'t run another bearing again I service it every six months which i only do between 5,000 to 7,000kms with castrol edge 5w30 and genuine filter every time as that what castrol recommends and the Subaru workshop manual states the current engine mods removed intake resonator with straight pipe(have not done snorkelectomy yet) Big exhaust from i think its turbo back still have factory up pipe just doing cheap mods that don\'t require certification pretty factory otherwise thanks for your positive comments Turborunner

im in the process in putting my dash back in, you have to get the air con degassed as you need to remove the a/c box to get the heaterbox out that has the heatercore in it and while your at it you might as well clean all the boxes out like i have done as it was full of grime and shit. but ive got alot of time as my motor has run a bigend bearing:-(

nobody said it was easier to do the headgasket with motor still incar. The guy in the video prefers removing the engine he is just showing that it can be done without removing engine. you probably spend the same time fighting with it as you would of removing the engine to start with.

heres a guide on how to do it with engine still in car
