Here is an aussie giving a review. CAUTION, language not safe for work in parts

User name is f.f.sltd (brendan).

A mate has a bp5 legacy wagon this shape. These shouldn\'t feel sluggish as they have a higher compression motor 9:5 and dual avcs. Full boost (Around 15psi) at around 2400rpm on the twin scroll tdo4 and easing off around 6000rpm. I was quite impressed with these to be honest and really liked them. Check out the first column here http://www.clubsub.org.nz/forum/index.php?topic=9604.0 from another member

I have done one electrical one on a honda civic, the mirror sat on housing by a ball and pivot joint which you could pop off with a little bit of force. Not sure about Legacy. Perhaps local panelbeaters may know what the deal is. Failing that, dependent on price, you could buy the whole unit (Glass and housing) provided you can get a colour match. I know you have the housing etc and just want to replace glass.

I have bought them in the past at Dick Smith as well, see link http://www.dicksmith.co.nz/product/S3523/dick-smith-cr1616-lithium-button-cell-battery-2pk

Well just picked up my car from these guys and very impressed. Car is v3 sti ra running g4 link ecu, vf22 with deatchwerks fuel pump. 2.5 downpipe with the rest of exhaust standard. Engine is factory standard also. Perfect idle. Everything else works as it should. These guys have made the vf22 feel like my old vf28 that I just swapped from but with a heap of torque down low and plenty at the higher end. Hasn\'t been on the dyno yet but estimate a safe 200-210kw at the wheels on around 1.3 bar looking at the gauge. We are lucky to have these up and comer experts in Wellington and I suggest trying them out for your next build/modification and/or repairs or conversions. More info here http://flatfourspecialists.co.nz Thanks again Brendan and John!

Here is a cheapish v7 sti wagon which already has the guards (Just needs the brembos) I know your preference is sedan but http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/subaru/wrx/auction-569565084.htm Pro drive sedan from a dealer http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/subaru/wrx/auction-571208756.htm or www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/subaru/wrx/auction-568076128.htm Probably highish k\'s for what you are after though.

That\'s real good. Too many thefts lately in Wellington

They just put a self service bp with 98 in Porirua to replace the pak n save one opposite pak n save. Doesn\'t even make sense if they are purging the 98 petrol after spending money on some infrastructure for it. So if 98 is going, what will everyone be running on? -95 Gas -Mobil Synergy 8000 (heard that ethanol not so good for subarus) -95 Gas plus octane booster (if it works) So everyone with a standalone or tuned ecu will have to get a retune to suit the new gas or sell their cars? Maybe today I will ask Porirua bp if they are getting rid of theirs soon and update this thread. Almost like a mad max buzz for petrol (the 98 kind) I even got 98 from bp in Wanganui about 4 weeks ago from a relatively small looking Bp.

Here is a picture of mine from a v3 sti and appears standard Have a look, I imagine if it was aftermarket or something you would see \'Mines\' or Zerosports\'. It may be obvious when you do look under the cover. Connect the ecu plugs up and see if there any codes being flashed by the engine check light.

That is awesome 1ce. I guess you may have been expecting the worst. Even the fact that you managed to find your car is good.

Sorry, should of mentioned it is a manual Forester. (Located in Auckland)

HI there, my cousin owns the above type Forester. She is need of a new gearbox. If we can\'t find a matching gearbox, will other Forester, impreza boxes bolt up provided ratio is 4.444? Plate here Isn\'t much on google for gearbox code, there is a pdf doc I found, and could see other boxes with same ratios and r160 diff but gearbox code slightly different. Any help appreciated. Regards

Try Winger, I have dealt with them through email and normally receive parts overnight from them. http://www.winger.co.nz/parts-northshore.aspx

6 1/2 is normally fine dependent on magnet size of speaker. You can look here too www.crutchfield.com/app/car/carselector.aspx?http://www.crutchfield.com/S-tdG7jGzjtjc/learn/learningcenter/car/speakers_fit.html

Yep easily the 4th in the last month, must be the season or something. Mostly late model ones from what I have seen so far. Still sucks though.

Took apart 2 pot rear calipers, cleaned, replaced seals and dust covers (rebuild kit from Subaru $125.00!!!!). Now only have to put on v4 sti hubs to do 2 pot rear conversion as per Funky Town\'s post on 2 pot rear conversion.

Gutted, can\'t believe how many have been stolen in Wellington area in November. Will keep an eye out.

Check out my post from awhile back when I did mine (mainly fronts) http://www.clubsub.org.nz/forum/index.php/topic,29018.msg403715.html#msg403715 Here is a list of things I bought with prices. You may not need all of these but just to give you an idea and you may decide on different brands/grades of parts. -Front 4 pots second hand $200 -Genuine Subaru seal kit for 4 pots from Winger Subaru Auckland $65 -Genuine Subaru Cross Springs x 2 from Winger Subaru Auckland $103.50 -Cusco master cylinder brace/bracket $177 -Dba650s slotted front rotors - $412 -Average trw brake pads - $90 -Motul brake fluid rbf600 $30 per 500ml bottle -Goodridge brake lines $199 I should mention that I upgraded my rotor size from 277mm I think to 294mm size for my 4 pots.

Cousin in auckland has sti type m 2 forester. Has normal wrx engine td04 turbo. But has sti trim and sti spotlight covers etc. No red manifold and ran ten or so pounds of boost. Had 4 pot and 2 pot brakes. Think its a 2001 model

That is rude man. I have seen this car in the driveway too when coming through Whitby from pauatahanui. Will keep an eye out for it too.

Subscribed to this, are you going for v7+ type intercooler due to running the v8 manifold? Subout on here can get the kits http://www.processwest.com.au/index.php/products/subaru/wrx-sti-gc8/my99-00-top-mount-intercooler-kit Price list http://www.processwest.com.au/index.php/price-lists/subaru-price-list Don't know how true this video is but maybe worth a watch with just process west top mount kit

Yep plenty of break-ins there. Even cars that aren't sought after are broken into. I saw a Land Rover once on blocks!!
