Just make sure it's from the source and not a someone told someone it was OK type of situation. You need to start a garage thread 😊

I think it was mentioned to point out that they probably get slightly different treatment/deals to the guy with just his car policy. @Conducks just remember that you may not be covered at the drag races even if they are on the street. May not be covered at the track as well, best to check the policy

Being with the same insurance company will help, but as said above just be careful with it under your mums name and being a nominated driver as if they (or more importantly their underwriter) find out that you are the main driver there may be issues. Sometimes having a lot of money tied up with one company doesn't always mean it will go your way in a claim. as I said sometimes the underwriters can have a say in claims and they have their own rules to go by. Also it depends on how the policy is worded with nominated drivers, I remember having to put the wife down for a nominated driver and had to say what percentage of time she drove.

Wow thats quite a difference! I can see why you stay that height.

I was thinking they look similar in colour - Will look up british gold and see.

Thanks Have just had a look at some of the colours and it looks like they have used the metallic gold on some Brembos, so could be a really good start.

Trying to find out either what colour Subaru painted the RS RA rims (gold) or paint code. I am thinking about painting my rims to match the picture below but have not been able to fin out what the colour or colour code is. Is anyone able to point me in the right direction. I was going to go into a paint shop to talk to them about it, but I need a bit more info to help them/me out. This is what I am wanting to end up with - approximately. Or if anyone knows of a set of rims in the right colour that is for sale. Thanks

Looks good. Nice set of rims, now you just need to lower it a little

Welcome From my bad memory the Rev D BH (which you have - you can tell by the different headlights) bonnet and lights are different, unsure on the front bumper though. Looks to me the same as my old BH bumper. Nice looking wagon, love the rims

Got the DP bolted up and all the hoses back in place and tightened. Next weekend will be new battery and test drive!

I miss my sunroof and my moon roof. Also Ive so now gotten used to driving autos I nearly forgot to use the clutch!

Hehe you said tittie

You know you're in the boonies when the instructions to get there are turn at the brick house Looks like fun. Good luck @Technikhaus will this be the first hill climb in the new car?

All good, just let me know.

If you want I can have a look for you, take some photos, maybe take a clip of it running.

I would stay with the wagon. Good luck with the search for a manual car, most of the ones I looked at were auto, the only manual one had a dodgy gearbox. Apart from that I love my BP outback (Just a slightly jacked up legacy), I too had a BH before hand and its a much nicer overall.

Whos going to be legman then?

Looking to attend this Love a drive around the hills over to Akaroa.

Installed my new ECU in the RS. Thanks to @blitzd808 for supply me with one. Not a RS ra one, but is matched to the the turbo in the car. Next weekends job will be to finish bolting the turbo back up installing all the intake piping and battery and getting her running again. Got too cold to finish off yesterday.

Finally got one on the outback.

Thanks @Joker Looks like it will be a while till I hear then. Well it hasn't gone off yet, so hopefully will be all good. Would be ironic to crash because of the air bag going off and not having the airbag to save you because its already deployed

Looks like it will be more than just badges which is good news. Sounds like it will be a nice car to have.

My ClubSub sticters got delivered yesterday - yay. Now to figure where to put them. I want one on the out back but not sure if I put it on the rear windscreen or the back side window? The other one Im not sure yet, maybe on the MTB?

Check this one out - it is in Palmy North, but could be worth a look. Might be able to negotiate a lower price. http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/subaru/auction-1336335991.htm or http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/subaru/auction-1317781861.htm

So did a bit of experimenting on they way to pick the kids up last night. So what I have learned is that the Eco mode seems to be only for a very small amount of travel of the pedal. It seems to keep it in Eco mode when the throttle is only partially depressed, once it goes past that point it switches back to normal. I think the idea is when you are cruising with light throttle inputs its economical and saving gas, when you need some more power and depress further it kicks it out of Eco.
