  1. Been there, done that. Thank god for insurance. Especially when you consider OEM front lip is $1500 +
  2. Exactly. They are absolutely pointless and are of no benefit whatsoever if you are sensible. As @THUNDA suggests, drive off boost for the last short part of your journey before switching off. I've owned turbo cars for many, many years and never had a turbo timer.
  3. Me too. I'm in the OR - where are you based?
  4. A bit of bog should fix that. Will be just as strong as when Subaru built it
  5. Car wash? Lazy bugger - do it yourself
  6. I'd be worried that it would swing into the bumper and wear the paint... OEM Vortex Generator is essentially for looks. Unless it is tested in a wind tunnel and the fins are narrow enough, it ain't going to really do anything effective in reality.
  7. Car back in my posession today.... Wrap is really impressive - certainly can't tell it's on the car. Also had an OEM Vortex Generator installed...
  8. A few minor (but annoying) stone chips have been fixed and some 3M paint protection film is being applied...
  9. I'm working there at the moment.
  10. @Andy_Mac- not planning on painting it. @newsuba- No. Went for the factory delete option. 30 years ago I'd have gone for a big wing - now I like the look without. Car blends in more with others around and doesn't attract unwanted attention. Either that or I'm just getting to be an old git (which is closer to the truth )
  11. Okay, won't doing anything performance wise in reality. but a good price on eBay. Arrived safely today... A4 installation booklet is 4 pages long! Seems to be the correct size all round... Car is going into the paintshop next week for a couple of stone chip touch ups before I get some paint protecrtion film applied (damn the crap soft Subaru paint :mad:) Will get them to fit the part then.
  12. If that's the case, lets hope they don't rely on Cadbury to produce the pistons
  13. Never had a bad meal there
  14. Went to the Grill on Federal St last night with friends and this nice pair of Italian artistry were parked outside...
  15. Found this by accident - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9ySyd8SvRw
  16. Don't know. Need to do some research methinks....
  17. Picked up a GoPro Hero5 the other day and with the wife at work this afternoon, went for a little blat into the country to give the new camera a quick test. Nothing terribly exciting, but am pretty impressed with the quality for such a small unit. Just need to work on the souind https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x91izu08n14
  18. Sounds like it could get very nasty today. Just seen AKL uni is closing this am. Keep safe out there and take it easy on the roads. Already seen one WRX probably written off yesterday. Don't want to hear of any more.
  19. Crawling along in peak hour traffic along the NW Motorway yesterday was alongside a very nice looking Black VA WRX with some gorgeous AM wheels. We both acknowledged each other as you do. On the way home tonight, just past Lincoln Rd, saw the same car again. This time, with the rear stoved in after being rear ended. Looks like veryone was okay as all out of the vehicles with Police in attendance, but very sad to see. Wouldn't be suprised if it is a write off
