    Although that said (just to argue on the internet for the sake of it since work is quiet) - half the appeal in a certain engine for a lot of people is the noise.

    Why else would people run carbs and ITB\'s when there is so much better tech out these days - why use an RBXX when an LSX is lighter, smaller and can ultimately do/make more? Hell - why do you see so many people selling big $$ manifolds for subys to "get the rumble back" haha

    This is also why we have rotary "people" - if they didn\'t sound like a chainsaw on acid I don\'t think they\'d have half the appeal

    Apart from "emotional attachment" of a certain motor/whatever, the noise of a car plays a huge part. For me all the wooshy noises are a big part of enjoying a turbo car - hard to beat that anticipation of hearing a T51R spool up, or even just the minor LOL of seeing a kid go "whoa" when a skyrine goes chattering down the road with a blocked off BOV. No different to some loving the sound of a massive cammy V8, or hearing a vtack come on song, or getting a woody over a merlin V12 (or whatever it\'s called haha)

    Take the noise away and it\'s just a bunch of numbers I guess

    This! ^^^ Sound a a turbo spooling up is magic!! :)

  2. I\'ve been struggling to find the info for my oils for a DCCD 2002 Sti spec c.

    Subaru Wairau Rd has recommended me Castrol Multitrax 80w90 for the front diff/box and SL90 for the rear diff, didn\'t say what brand though.

    Thoughts?

    Looks like this for the box: http://www.supercheapauto.co.nz/online-store/products/Castrol-Multitrax-Transaxle-Manual-Transmission-Fluid-4-Litre.aspx?pid=1276&menuFrom=60202#Cross

    This for the rear: http://www.supercheapauto.co.nz/online-store/products/Castrol-LSX-90-Rear-Axle-Differential-Fluid-4-Litre.aspx?pid=1116#Cross

    Is what Winger Subaru have recommended. I\'ve heard Syntrax is better than Multitrax, just can\'t find it.
