  1. +1 to single turbo.

    But yeah, just use subaru bearings, they are good. I've been told more than once; far far better than ACL bearings, and far more expensive..

    DON'T go cheap on parts, use genuine parts where possible.

    Quick question - does the ZS controller have the same effect on auto RSK's or is it a bit of a waste of time on them?

    Works the same yes, but is largely a waste of time in auto BH's and BH5D's. They handle TT pretty well, the biggest effect you get is on manual BG's, which are utterly useless with TT.

  3. I am determined to go along, I haven't missed one yet. But hey hey, what's new? No moneys! This time round it's the flying draining my accounts.

    I just dropped a sum of money on a used DSLR, and need lenses for it. I'll keep putting money aside each week and see how it goes, be it flying up and hitching a ride down, or driving up, I will be there.

    Its Crap!!!! Its a completly different style. Nothing maintained from previous versions

    Well, you say that, but i can see it does have something in common with older imprezas, now, actually...

    It's getting very close and intimate to the legacy lineage once more!!! Those wheel arches are straight off that behemoth they are calling a 'mid sized' sedan/wagon.

  5. Yeah, theres 3 main types of 20G, the fozzy ones resemble a 20K, but just carry the 20G badge.

    Depending on the year foz, it'll be a phase 1 or 2 engine. I think only the SF5A was a phase 1, then they went to the EJ205 V5/6 engine.

    The BG5A is a phase 1, meaning you are basically stuck with the SF5A EJ20G and ECU, though it does have a different loom (TT 4-plug, so you need to repin, as koom pointed out)...

    You can convert to phase 2, but it's an arse of a job i think, it will be harder than just re-pinning.

    I am never embarrassed when driving MY RX as all i have to think is who else made an AWD TURBO car in 1986 :) that u can buy now for $1200,if any one says anything about their brand of car,I always suggest that they take 1500 bux and go buy a car from 1986 that will keep up with it

    Speaking of which, this GEM popped up in a thread i started on NASIOC a few days ago. Nice to know now all americans chuck their old cars in the tip the moment a new model is out. There was also a EJ20G'd one, but didn't look so nice.
