Just paid the cash-izle for the amazing race. Should be a few of us from the Naki coming to the meet. Not sure how many are actually on the forums though.
Nah the dude was stumped. Had no idea why it wouldn't fit. I could have possibly looked for a different steering knuckle but thats more money and I'm not even sure what would fit. I wasn't happy to have to hammer it but I also wasn't going to call it quits after I was this deep in.
Called redline. Guy on the phone basically said he has no idea why it doesn't fit, so I can send it back if I want to. Nice guy. Soooo....Looks like it's Hammer time.
For those of you who prefer a thread with pictures. ( this is from under the car ) Even with the knuckle detached, it still sits hard against the downpipe. I mean, how important is steering really?
So I bought a 3" turbo back exhaust kit from Redline performance for a forester sg5. Finally got it all together and the down pipe won't clear the steering linkage. I can only assume this kit was made for left hand drive vehicles.
Has anyone bought a similar kit or had a similar issue?
That's a pretty good price for all that. I paid 86 nzd for the same stuff from partsouq but had to wait a week and wasn't 100% sure if i had ordered the right gaskets . ( I had ordered the right gaskets, but still...)

Pulled the turbo off my Forry expecting to find a TD04 but instead I have a TF035HM. Is this a factory turbo? Seems to be pretty tidy so hopefully I can sell it to put towards more car bits.
Does anyone know where to get these in NZ? I've got to a 3" straight through turbo back exhaust system and I've heard because of the cat removal, I'm going to get a p0420 error code and these anti-foulers used as spaces fixes the CEL. https://www.amazon.com/Dorman-42009-Spark-Plug-Non-Fouler/dp/B000CO91FY
