Got some oem subaru sports pedals because before my ownership someone had put some crappy random ones on plus racecar lol

 

Image may contain: food

 

Got them installed, was more difficult than i thought it would be. Accelerator pedal had a pin which was annoying to get out but wasnt too bad getting back in, also had to trim some metal off the bottom of both the brake and clutch to get it to fit on properly but nows shes gem! 

 

No automatic alt text available.

 

also i nice pic of my engine bay with the grimmspeed alternator cover fit on properly

Top mount as it'll work for now without cert issues. Still really want front mount though. That was to big for plane.

have 4 port solenoid and dual port Wastegate turn up to see how far I can push the stock turbo.

 

should have new suspension on the way next week. Just OEM replacement type but shortened 

 

Tomorrow may try the swapping of the vacuum pipe of BOV and fuel reg you suggested.

Get a load of this. You know a courier company is sh!t when a parcel that was sent Monday from Dubai arrives before an 'overnight' parcel sent (last) Friday in Christchurch....

Thanks Fastway...
Also, no it hasn't arrived yet.
Relation is that it's car parts I need to get my RA running this weekend.

So what started off as what I thought would be a quick fix... has turned a few hours with half the dash apart.

Turns out one of the aircon actuator valves has started to go. Can't get heat to the passenger side of the car.
Didn't manage to fix it as it requires a full dash removal and heater core being taken out.


Will have to get it looked at when taking the car in for the airbag and wiper recall. -_-

Oh man. Sounds like a fun job.

Definitely something worth tackling yourself if you can find the help. Be a lot of money on labour in a shop.

I'm also a cheap ass, hence why I'd do it myself :P

Yeah I've got the service manual. Which has a 20 page guide on removing the dash...
Thought that since the recall for the airbag replacement probably requires dash removal, they might be able to get it done at the same time.
Will get a quote before going ahead with anything tho.

Yesterday I took my GF8 out for a quick stretch of the legs just to make sure everything is in order before I move out of Auckland. Could barely hit 5000rpm with the amount of traffic, on a Saturday arvo on SH20. But it builds boost nicely and feels responsive. Perhaps that hole in the old compressor-ic pipe was already there but smaller before.

      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
