[Brown sludge help]

So I took my intercooler off and noticed this brown crap inside this tubing that is mounted to the intercooler.

Q1, Where does this tubing go to and from?
Q2, Where did this brown sludge come from? It looks like Nutella....doesn't taste like it though. Trust me.
       The whole pipe was blocked with it.

[Will Gull force 10 ruin my car?]

Cheers lads, you're most helpful.

[Will Gull force 10 ruin my car?]

I seem to be finding mixed information on the E10 98 octane that gull offers. I have a 2002 ej205 forester sg5 that I usually run on BP 98 octane. Anything I should be aware of before I fill 'er up with corn juice?

Is it odd that a 100k service doesn't include cambelt, waterpump etc?

[interesting things you find that hint at your cars prevoius life]

Changed my seat over to some V3 Sti ones today. Found some JDM candy, as well as a weird baseball man with a Japanese description.

[SF springs on a SG forester?]

Looking at getting a set of Tein second hand springs off a wrecking SF forry. Do they fit the SG5 foresters? I'm assuming if they do, they may sag in the ass a tad?

Any information will be greatly appreciated.

That looks suspiciously like a box.

I have a feeling it contains parts for an automobile...Maybe even a Subaru?

How is a front mount an issue for WOF?

[Dumb Question Thread!]

What is a 2wd strut? I didn't think there was any difference in struts between 4wheel and 2 wheel drives.

[Appraisal needed 2004 WRX 135km]

I thought you upgraded to Brembo brakes via painting stock brakes yellow...right?

[What have you done to your car today?]

Upgraded factory 12mm sway bar to an STI 19mm sway bar, Cheers to Scoobydoo.

[Any problems with this?]

I'm also looking at getting these, as I need the genomes for the front to match my existing ones. The genome rears don't seem to sag all that much, maybe they are set up a bit differently.

Whats your old suspension Scooby? Maybe I can buy your hand me downs again haha

[Any problems with this?]

Will i need rear camber bolts with any lowering option i use? Even if its lowered springs on factory shocks?

Standard STI rears and Genome sti fronts. Any weird level difference?

Hoping this set up will work on the SG5 Forester

[Dumb Question Thread!]

What's better between rubber and poly bushing for the swaybar? Do you need to grease both?

A V-can for more pooowwwaaaa

[Turbo options for EJ205]

Any one in particular that you'd recommend if it was you buying it?

[Turbo options for EJ205]

Hey team,

Wanting to know what options I have for direct bolt on turbos for my Forry SG5 with a EJ205 engine. I've been told a VF30 and VF34 but there doesn't seem to be many of these around. Are they more common turbos around which I can bolt on before I look at getting a tune for more POOOOWWWAAA?

[Average Torque Performance Tune?]

"Limiting factor being the turbo". What turbo are you running?

Super cheap auto Special, 3 cans for $12 of Aussie export paint. Sorted. Whole car for less than $50. Don't even worry about prep.

Removed the Japanese Dvd/Navunit and gutted it, put a stainless steel plate with a carbon fiber decal over top on the front with a boost gauge.

Also made a blank plate for where the remote sat next to the hand brake.
