    Bit late now but BNT had a trade day special the other week (50% off). I got all my whiteline stuff off trademe through "Spares box". Definitely recommend doing the complete whiteline shifter bushing kit. Throw some rear subframe and diff inserts in too if you haven't already. Also if you do the roll centre ball joints order in some lower control arm bushes while the arm is off. Definitely need a wheel alignment afterwards. 

    I didnt know about the trade day. Yes I have so far replaced every bush in my car with the whiteline ones. Did the front essentials kit with the Anti lift kit and rear essentials kit which includes subframe, diff outrigger mounts and all trailing arms.

     

    Only whiteline things I havent done, is pitch stop mount, roll centre kit, gearbox shifter bushing, and sway bar links.

     

    How much was the shipping through spares box? Also did you have to pay tax and duty etc.

    3 out of 4 times bnt has given me wrong parts and caused much headaches but I think this was just the numpties at my specific branch.

     

    I got all my whiteline stuff from EVOWRX who doesnt appear to be here anymore.

    Yup i got my last order through @D1style but he also doesnt appear to be active anymore.

     

    Glad of any other hook ups.

  3. Hello there,

     

    Who is the retailer for whiteline over here? Or is there anyone with connections to whiteline product that can source parts for reasonable prices?

     

    I am needing to order some sway bar bushes, and possibly interested in the roll centre correction kit, pitch stop mount, and sway bar links, and maybe the rear shifter bushing.

     

    Can anyone help with this stuff?

     

    Cheers.

  4. Hey there,

     

    Does anyone know where to find all torque specs for 1999 wrx STI?

     

    After specs for subframe bolts, diff mount bolts, etc. Basically all chassis bolts and sway bar mounts, and also engine torque specs too. E.g. exhaust and intake manifolds, clutch, flywheel etc.

     

    Be glad if someone can point me in the right direction.

     

    Cheers

    I put an cut old belt around them and the crank, clamped/vice gripped the belt together around the crank so nothing could turn

    So you clamped the ends of the belt together against the other side of the belt close to the crank pulley so it held tight?

    Hmmmm. Are you doing them with the belt on the cambelt system?

    If so, get someone in the car, and stick the car in top gear with their foot on the brake (or jam a pry bar on the flex plate for an auto), and then have a go.

     

    If they've used red loctite, well, you're probably screwed. I'd use blue mid-strength if anything myself.

    Engine is on an engine stand, and belt has been removed.

    Ring a few shops and make sure they have stock. Heaps don’t since it’s next day ordering being local. 

    Going to be in Melbourne area, so will scout out a few shops and check stock. Looks like everyone is charging $385aud. Quite a bit of money for doooorp noises. Not convinced as to how much gain I will see having this rather than stock intake when I tune the car.

    Just remember if you change too a bigger pipe diameter where the MAF sensor is installed it’s retune time. 

    Yes, the car will be getting a tune with link G4 regardless, to make the most of the bigger tmic, headers, and injectors and gone to vf22 over vf28.

  9. Hi there,

     

    Has any one here had any experience with the process west air intake kits for GC8's?

     

    Interested to know what difference it makes over the stock intake? Would it give better response from turbo?

     

    And also if it is even worth considering since I am only running a VF22.

     

    Cheers.

  10. Hey there,

     

    Just after some direction regarding split rails. I am doing split rails, however i still have everything on the top of the engine in the stock location such as, power steering pump, alternator, aircon pump, manifold and TMIC.

    There is not a heap of spare room with all this stuff on there so does anyone have any tips of the best places to runs the Fuel lines?

    or experience doing split rails with all these things in stock location?

     

    it is reasonably tight underneath the manifold when trying to place two tee fittings under there.

     

    cheers.
