Granted, I'm from America but supercheap wants 50 bucks PER PLUG?! Am I missing something? I've never paid more than 12 bucks a plug for ngks. 

Stuff that. Go to BNT. Its been a while but pretty sure I paid somewhere around $90 for 4 Iriduims

Drove to track day and on the way popped the left rear axle from diff. Put it back in raised the back end of the car to make and axle angle better and took it for a blast around the track. After 10min bang bang bang right rear axle pops out. Anyone else had this problem before. Car was lowered and -2 degrees of camber.

The clip stays in the diff and it clips in no problem once I put it back bloody hrs to get it out so not sure why is did pop out might have just been about to and then the camber just pushed it too far? The r160 diff doesn't have circlip on the shafts unless you have the auto SF5 or you have LSD on the rear otherwise the clips stay in the diff

I've read about this problem a little on NASIOC with wagon owners running widened sedan track width. The solution for GG wagon owners running GD sedan rear lateral links was that they needed to swap to longer GD sedan axles.

 

I would imagine when you lengthened the adjustable links on your forester you went wider than the movement in the inner cv on the axle can handle. Similar to the issue with the GG wagon owners on NASIOC. Solutions would be to either get some longer axles, perhaps GD sedan ones if they are compatible with your diff/hubs, or to run less length in your adjustable arms. (i.e. less negative rear camber)

Could adjust camber with camber bolt in bottom of struts for max negative camber, then adjust the new arms more positively to bring the shafts back in while still keeping negative camber?

 

(dont know if foresters have that camber bolt in rear suspension)

I thought they only came factory in the front?

That's a pretty good price for all that. I paid 86 nzd for the same stuff from partsouq but had to wait a week and wasn't 100% sure if i had ordered the right gaskets . ( I had ordered the right gaskets, but still...)

 Yeah i was going to do the same but i got mine the next morning and i ordered it at 4:30pm yesterday. Helps when you have a friend that works at Wingers :D

 Good choice using OEM bits..

Price is  good and having mates in a parts department is  very handy..

      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
