Sub Zero

Slight thread hijack. But I've always been told that if your car is 4wd or awd you have to have chains on all 4 wheels? Is this true?

Oh yeh do you know their username? Might be able to have a chat to them about it?

Haha yeh slowly learning things and doing general maintenance by myself which is kinda scary sometimes haha.

Ok yeh might just have to pop in and pay them a visit when im next in tga. [quote name='evowrx said: Dtech clean injectors and are perfect to deal with. Cool thanks will have a look into them.

do they have a website or anything? quick google didnt turn up very much

Hey guys im starting to look for a good mechanic to do my 200k service but i also need someone who could also take a look and possibly clean my injectors as well. I am pretty much wanting to stay in the bay but if need be can travel to other places. Is there any where you guys can recommend? Cheers

Yeh i like Turoa too, but i stay in a hut on whakapapa side as its so much cheaper for me, i do mission round every like 3rd weekend or so to Turoa.

Finally had some spare time this weekend to get some painting done haha Went from this To this Pretty pleased with the result but i don't know how long i will keep the scoop like that..

Anyone go up to Mt Ruapehu (Whakapapa Side) during winter? would be keen to do some cruises or something up to there as i go up pretty much every weekend/chance i can

What'd you do the tinting with? looks awesome man.

Ok awesome might have to make it another weekend i come up to tga as i come up almost every weekend. and yeh its the 2.0l turbo and ill be able to borrow a jack and some jack stands from work. Is there any weekends your free Andy?

Oh awesome. How much oils did you use? and are you busy tomorrow Andy_Mac? judging by that the looks of that torx bit it looks hard to get? and yeh mine is post face lift as its 2007

Hey andy_mac I might call on some pics later if I can't find them. Also how do you tell if it's post or pre face lift? And it is 6mt Also how long do you guys reckon it should take and what oils would you recommend to do it with?? if it won't take much time and isn't gonna cost an arm and a leg I might come visit you tomorrow Marky If that's alright?

Awesome i might call on that if i cant do it myself. I'm going to attempt it next week with the aid of google haha.if i cant do it i will make a trip up to tauranga and get you to help if thats all good

oh yeh? awesome. Im not too worried about what i cant get done as it will get done when it goes for its 200,000km service just wanting to learn how to do the majority of the stuff myself

4th gen BL5 and its manual. and yeh Joker im just as shocked as you hahaha

Hey guys so I want to change all the fluids on my legacy and was wondering if someone would be able to lend me a hand and show me how to change them. (Will obviously pay you for your time or buy you a box of whatever you drink.) I can do the oil on my own it's just the others I'm not sure on. Cheers Dean

Finally got my new grill apart so i can prep it to be plastidipped

Ok so I changed my oil and oil filter which i pre filled and now I've noticed my engine is making a ticking sound. Is this anything to worry about? I used Castrol edge 5w30 fully synth and a genuine subaru oil filter.

Ok awesome cheers guys im about to do my first oil change on the suby today (always had someone else do it before)

This is probably a really dumb question, but when you do an oil change should you change the oil filter aswell??

yep or if you wanna go surfing haha lock the keys in the car and away you go.

Technically not me but... got my front windows tinted by Car Folie must say they are very good at what they do Before: After:

Old: Glenside Cres New: Sorry for the bad iphone pics haha i really need to invest in a camera
