there is a round bung that has to be removed to gain access to the clutch fork pin. its behind where the starter motor would be. the pin has a small internal thread that allows u to screw into it and pull it out, or hook it with some #8 wire etc. without removing that it wont come off ill find some pics tomorrow

don't worry im onto it self proclaimed tech-keeper lol

negative. we move on. there is some old tech backup info sitting somewhere. the idea is to add it later on as a read-only archive.

mwahaha i have stolen this thread! 4POSSM's blurb: As a rather large club of people interested in the same things there are bound to be times where we may end up bidding on the same items. or bidding on other CS members items. If we can all post our TM usernames up here we have a way of avoiding excessive bidding wars with other members. or so we can organise trades with members off the trademe website. If you notice another member bidding on an item you are wanting, pm them here and see who needs/wants it more before starting an unneccassary bidding war. HA! lets face it, who uses this list for that? your all just nosy parkers! ;D TM names take you to current listings CS names open up a new PM Updated list Dec 09 - Someone else can add links..

DCCD: Driver Controlled Centre Differential This is another big subject, here's a compilation of information. Useful info and first hand experiance welcome. please no 'i kan do phat dccd skids' spam please, it will be bumped off into general or off topic. Source unknown, lol The adjustable centre differential is one of the toys upon the Type R which makes the car desirable amongst Impreza owners. The way it works is by an electronic clutch which engages fluid filled clutch plates and this acts unlike a limited slip differential and more like a mechanical device. In the open condition the Type R handles very like a rear wheel drive car. The differential transfers the torque front and back equally but when one end loses grip (usually the lighter rear end) all of the torque is transferred to the axle that is wheel spinning. An LSD would keep some torque going to the wheels still with grip. Thus the Type R can bite the unwary. Moving the centre console switch one notch forward progressively locks the differential, and in the fully forward position the differention is completely locked. So why should you not have the diff. locked all the time? You are in effect forcing the drive on the front axle to be exactly the same as the rear. When going round a corner the wheels all rotate at different rates, the ones on the inside slower than the ones on the outside of the circular path. The front turning wheels travel at different rates to those on the rear fixed axle. Driving a Type R with the differential in the locked position on a good grippy surface will cause transmission damage, and the effects can be felt through the steering even when the diff. switch is set only one position forward. So when should you move the switch? As stated the rear of the Type R can be very lively if you let it get away from you. On damp and wet roads this is more likely to happen, so transferring some of the torque forwards might be advisable. With the slippery conditions the speed difference of the wheels will be compensated for by the overall slip on the road surface. If the surface is gravel or snow then it is safe to move the diff. lock to fully closed, giving exceptional traction from both front and back, something an LSD would never be able to give.

yep its possible, but you require the original key-fob with remote-IR unlock button to allow you to program a new code. when i find the info..

CEL code 42, Idle switch found on EJ20G engines. Idle switch built into TPS (Throttle Position Sensor). Note EJ20K and newer has no such switch. EJ20G Workshop manual: (Thumb clickable)

CEL code 31, Throttle Position Sensor for EJ20G engine only EJ20G Workshop manual: (Thumb clickable)

(post by Odie from my cache 16/2/09) -and there will be more to this story now i imagine :-\ As everyone is aware during last year we renewed our webhosting with Graeff Group, and a new site was developed along with new look forums. Timeframes kept extending on the delivery of basic functionality, let alone the harder stuff... Once the club committee started applying pressure to get things done and finished, communication became less and less. A decission was made to look for a new hosting company and out of dozens that had offered we selected one, this is around the time when the club was completly unable to contact Graeff Group for anything, communication became one sided, when the site went offline text messages and emails would be sent and then the site would come back up. During December the site had a extended outage on the website, Graeff Group had now disappeared completely, I managed to get hold of other Graeff Group customers and they all had suffered the same fate. One customer based in the USA had managed to trace the hosting facility and contacted them and thru some US legal request managed to force the hosting company to turn the server back on, which returned our site to a functioning site, alas that was to be short lived as the hosting company only had to enable the server for a period of 30 days. During this time we tried to get access to the forum files and backups however the company VPSLAND.com would not allow access. Over the last few weeks we have managed to regain control of the domain name, MX records for email. This had to be done through a number of legal documents and processes, it was long winded but we now have full control over everything again and even better we are back on a NZ server. I would like to take this time to thank everyone for your patience while this mess was sorted out and a very special thank you to ZYLEX Webhosting for helping the club work through this long winded process and setting up such a great new web space. Cheers Odie
