STI Forester on sale in TM


Valkyrie

Recommended Posts

Hi Christchurch team, I am looking to get myself a "FAMILY" SUV and the first one I can think of is a Forester !!!!!!

 

On trademe there is a STI version on sale in Christchurch with reasonable mileage and price I think?! Just wondering if anyone can do a initial check for me before I get into detail negotiation with the saler.

 

Or does anyone knows about the car?

Thanks and Cheers

My concern would be the condition of the center diff, if the owner has been replacing tyres by the pair it could have done damage. Good rotation discipline is key with subies, so you replace all 4 tires at the same time

But all in all, foresters are wicked. I love em, and it's the better looking pre facelift front end. Kms are pretty good too, but I'd still be looking for service history

Whats the best way to check the center diff (if any). Is it the tight turn at slow speed to check binding?

They drive like a sti, but a lot more punch down low. 1 bar boost is the target setting (14.7 psi)

 

Run out of puff at the top end, lots of gains to be had from a return (new owner should have a chat to the sas lads, and should also come along to flatnats labour weekend!!!!!!!!)

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
