Received some good stuff from Pro Wholesale :

Cool and do you see a big difference ? How much was it ? Mine is sometimes harsh when downshifting from 4 to 3 even though I replaced the ATF.

Discovered that one of my PCV hoses was missing ... WTF ... I went to a few stores to find a new hose, bought clamps as well, and when I started to install the new hose I discovered that my old hose was laying on the cover at the bottom of the engine ... Only people that touched my car since this happened are the dodgy place where I got my air-conditioning re-gased ... Name is Skylink auto electrical and they just got a really nice review from me on Google Maps ! Don't go there, you can't trust these guys

I had a VW and you could choose between different pre-set settings for the circumference. You just needed the right cable and software. You can even do it from the ODB on some VW. This setting is mainly intended for when you fit winter tyres. There was actually heaps of settings you could change to customize your car, was really cool

Oh fark ... didn't realise it was a 2011 ! Subaru just F***ed up with your engine, it's crazy that you get a head gasket leak on that one.

Mate you actually had a Ford Focus RS, 73 000$ drift car ! You should have left it like that

Voucher from Grabone, the place is Skylink auto electrical or something like that. The place looked a little dodgy though, they wanted to check my car for 1 hour ... had to insist that I just wanted the regas but still had to wait 1 hour 30 min total.

Had the air conditioning re-gased for 30 bucks and drained and refilled ATF. Next on the list are the front and rear differentials, gotta put fresh oil in these.

I didn't express myself correctly, I meant that you need to reinforce the rsb brackets if you take a thick RSB. I wouldn't install an RSB without reinforcement now that I know about this problem. Seems that some guys abroad even bent the RSB brackets with the stock RSB. Ultraracing say that you need an underbody brace with bracket reinforcements when you install their RSB pointing you at their one. They're just trying to sell it like @GorGasmSpecB pointed. Of course you can mix the brands Yeah saw that, won't make the mistake, thx

Nah with the rear lower brace I saw that Ultra racing says that the rear lower brace is mandatory with their rear sway bar, which is why I count it as part of the package and price.

That's not bad Similar to stock sound but louder I guess. Closer to $400 or $500 if you take a 21mm one with rear lower brace.

According to RHD Japan the Cusco is 21mm too You mean 40$ more expensive for Cusco ? When I priced it on Pro Wholesale without discount it was more expensive than Cusco, both delivered.

Looks like it's not easy to get it right, I don't like the sound of most of these exhausts

I saw that I can get the Cusco for a good price from RHD Japan, but would be happy with the Ultraracing one as well. Just depends on the deal I get when I buy it in a month or two. Good to know for the CS discount.

And I'm going to take the thicker I can find + underbody brace

Rear sway bar and new legacy suspensions (I have an outback)

Would love to get those bro but I want to improve the handling first, it's already going to cost me a lot

That's never good to hear mate Which engine do you have ?

Nice ! Looks like the raptor headers are good stuff

DBA, Dixcel, Motul 660, that's some good stuff you picked ! Will pick the same things when I will need to except that I will try the Project Mu brake pads instead of Dixcel, heard really good reviews for these on the Toyota 86 / Subaru BRZ.

How are you driving the car ? If you're tracking it for instance, it can burn a lot of oil

Is it a branded trolley jack ? I used to have a no-name trolley and it made a weird noise at some point, I removed it and noticed it was twisted ... I don't trust no-name trolley jacks since that day. Ahahah, I thought it was the back because of the exhaust parts on each side and the differential (used to RWD cars) I'm going to hide somewhere where nobody can find me now

Good to know for the back, but I don't think there's a rubber thingy like that at the front, is there ?

Ahah that's what you get for lowering your car Anyway a trolley jack makes it so much faster/easier, too bad they are so expensive

Same here, I only have the scissor jack and what I did is I lifted only one side (pick the good one) with the scissor jack and secured it with a jack stand under the lower control arm (I think it was the LCA). Then I went under the car and started the oil change. Just don't forget to remove the jack stand and the scissor jack before checking the oil level Are you in Auckland ?
