Clean the inside of the windscreen (rainex anti-fog)... replaced the front wiper blades... removed the rear wiper assembly (bit of weight reduction)... took an angle grinder to the jack holder (to make a bit more space)... packed it with racing wheels/tyres and tools etc ready for sprint tomorrow... updated ECU logging profile... checked oil level, put 0.5 a litre in... bought some more oil... earlier in the week I had the front bumper opened up to allow more air to get through the intercooler and radiator and added shrouding.

Hi guys just though id show off my new ride! so its a 2005 STI Forester recently aquired from Ajay @Subirex Automotive thanks to Ajay and his team he did an awesome job of getting it ready for me on time! once it was finished it went to @PBMS they manged to get a safe but very satisfying 208KW ATW out of it - few pics below of her on her drive down to Nelson!

Hey guys, soo this might seem like a dumb question but what does it actually mean to “thrash” your cars engine? I’m about to buy a legacy 2.0gt wagon, but don’t want to screw the turbo or engine for that matter by hammering it too hard, but I don’t know what everyone means by “don’t thrash your engine” eg i I live in Auckland and will be in traffic a lot, would thrashing it be completely flooring it (it’s an auto) from 0 to 50 then letting off, and doing that quite often? And when on the motorway I love to do “pulls” do slowing to 80kmh then flooring it to around 120kmh.. would this fark my engine? I actually do that already in my 1.5ltr Nissan wingroad what could I be damaging ?? Why is it bad to do that? the more details the better!!! thanks guys!

@nihell have a stroll down to @Subirex Automotive garage in auckland and you will see a beautiful a-line parked there which they have custom modified and tuned and it runs like a skinned cat...that one has exhaust, fuel pump, intake and intercooler sprayer... @Pappu1 tuned it and got decent power out of it...these guys are the best and most reliable people to speak to when coming to subis
