  1. Nice! Been eyeballing them too but they're just too skinny for the 5th gen 225/40/18 is very close to 215/45/17, much more comfier than 215/35 too! .... and I just picked these up Guess I am done in that department for now...
  2. Doubt it has any relevance to Subaru at all, definitely not a №xxxx out of XXXX. Use google translate on you phone to translate what it says.
  3. I might be interested depending on day/time. I know right... farking stone chips and door dents
  4. That vacant site to the right used to be a well-know dealership for performance cars, apparently in liquidation now. Some interesting reads about its director's dealings can be found online
  5. Seeing the above makes me feel saaaaaad.... bloody NZDM spec Want some Cusco underbody braces too @Kiwiflyboy looks like they do not fit either
  6. Correct! Wait until others wake up - might have some better ideas than me before you start ripping things apart Best to do when your tank is almost empty.
  7. No Idea Pretty easy to access and check.
  8. I used free SSM + cheap ebay cable in revD BH5, I am pretty sure I was also able to read codes with BT adapter and Torque app. But freeSSM definitely worked.
  9. Discovered that JDM HKS charge pipe will not bloody fit NZDM Legacy Reason: JDM have electronic power steering, NZ/AU/EU/USDM have hydraulic power steering and consequently an extra pulley that get's in a way.
  10. Partsouq has built-in parts catalogs too, not sure if they go as old as BG/BD though. In most cases they're cheaper than dealerships, even including shipping. I also always add a few clips and other little bits that do not add to the shipping but always good to have
  11. A few bits arrived from Japan. Blitz AC filter, had the same one put in 3.0R and was pretty happy how it performed. And no, it's not THAT much more expensive than one from Repco and certainly cheaper than a silly genuine filter from a dealership. That's what I had in the car, no idea when it was last replaced (NZ new, one owner car always serviced at a dealership mind you...) Delicious... used to be white too... Ohh... and something else arrived at the same time
  12. I had midpipe resonator replaced with a straight pipe, sounded pretty crap paired with a quality aftermarket muffler - raspy and unnecessary loud. Ended up finding a quality 3" mid pipe with a resonator, never been happier.
  13. A whole bunch of UltraRacing bits finally arrived. Took 2 days to get from Asia to Auckland, than another two days and numerous phone calls to get from DHL depot to my address. You'd expect a better service from one of the priciest couriers. EMS is just so much better.
  14. Haven't thought about it.. who's good and not overly pricey in Auckland? Reckon I have an idea what pattern I might go for. Buttons are separate units and can be taken out completely.
  15. Still have to get some bits, planning to go to the hose shop in Avondale. They should have all the needed bits. Not sure what size hose is needed, planning to just bring the sensor thingy with me and let them do the rest
  16. I reckon paint will look better and more "natural". Semi-gloss black and a few layers of semi-gloss clear.
  17. That socket is under the steering wheel column somewhere - specifically there for all the accessories etc, Defi I had in BH5 was connected that way (dammit wish I just kept it...) and I am hoping they still kept the same plug in BR9 as I have a harness to go in there.
  18. Had ZS mid section and single muffler system in my possession, never put it on. And big fat no to Genomes, owned a few sets but would never put them on. For a number of reasons.
  19. Yeah that's the plan, contemplating on whether to paint or wrap, any suggestions? Haven't tried yet but looks like the buttons can easily be removed leaving bare shells. Black bits would've been nice and easy, have all the part numbers needed for a conversation. The cost hough...
  20. A few more... Ganador HKS x2 Liberal Kakimoto FGK Wangan Blitz for a day That's just the mufflers
  21. Got myself another little project to work on. Black-out theme continues
  22. WROOOONG! BLE was the blue one (if you name all the mufflers/exhausts it had I'd have to come up with some sort of a prize ) BR9 is the new one
  23. That's the way it goes, not much clearance at all.
