Nice things arrived for me today 😊

🤮 not sure where the 'track' part comes from either as it looks like its just an na impreza https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/subaru/auction-2335738033.htm?rsqid=655a973d8a0e4d7f8689d3451add6596-001

Hmm as i thought - unfortunately I dont have one and not sure of anyone here in Nelson who wold have one let alone how to use one

I mean I would only assume so as I have no CEL's or anything and other than replacing or cleaning them I'm not sure how I would tell if they are/aren't working or not properly...

Hey Team So ended up buying an A-Line and I love it only thing I have noticed is that the fuel economy seems to be terrible? And that's with out driving it hard, round town i have it in Intelligent mode so far since I've filled it up its done 83km and its use a quarter of a tank!! When I drove it down from Auckland the best I could manage was 430kms on a tank and most of the time cruise control was on only giving it the boot every now and then overtaking The fuel economy-ometer thingy in the car says round town its 6.1KMs per Liter which is about 16.3L per 100km Any Ideas? or is this just normal? I did expect it to not be as good as my Manual Legacy but it seems excessive? what size is the tank? 60L? The car is immaculate condition and completely stock 101,000kms and running it on BP98

Can you get me a price for the below parts - Rally Armour Flaps to Suit 2010 STI Hatch part number is MF15-UR-BLK/RD - Perrin Part numbers PSP-ENG-521BK & PSP-ENG-700RD

Yeah I thought about it but to be honest im a bit bigger boned lol than some people so dont really find them as comfortable as the ones already in it

Hi team thought I'd post pics up of my new ride finally decided to go for an STI A-Line and I have to say I actually love it! This one is a brilliant example 2010 STI in WRC blue with just 101,000kms on the clock has the gold sti brembos too! Has been immaculately looked after with a good service history from Japan

Nice job - looks a million times better!

Bit late to the Party but id be keen

Not sure about Ethanol differences but I know that the BE5/BH5 Engines love it when I bought my BE5 Twin turbo a while back it had been running on 95 and as expected it sounded like there were marbles in the engine lol Once I switched to NPD100 it immediately stopped pinging and even felt more responsive Also here in Nelson its actually cheaper than BP98 by about 20 cents so its a no brainer for me not to use it here

Its sad when you see a subie in that condition even more so when it was your old car

Cheers haha yeah I appreciate your feedback! yeah I haven't tested one yet but will do this weekend

Thanks for the feedback, well the last auto I had was a 3.0R legacy it did have the paddles but no blipping or anything and Ive never owned a GRB series STI so for Me I think an Auto GRB, (yes Im getting sick of manual for my daily) would be a great option They look great, lots more room than my BL5 Legacy and I would say quicker than my 2.0L BL5 Turbo?

Cheers - it seems some come with the Brembos so I would be looking to get one of those - a few on TM currently When you say slow how do you mean? is there a big delay in the gear change once you hit the paddle?

Poor Ol Sf5! she needs some love!

Hi team are thinking of getting an STI A-Line (I know its Auto dont judge me lol) just wondering if there are many members on here who have owned one and can comment on them? when using the paddles on downshift doe the car match the revs so you dont feel anything on downchange? or is it like all the classic autos? Any known issues with the A-lines? I would be getting a 2010+ model

Pretty much how it goes! 🤣

Sweet well Im getting it looked at by the tuner next week so we will see by the way whats LV?

Other causes? what would you suspect?

So it normally does just above 1bar now sits dead on 0.5bar (7.25 psi) has no CEL or anything and actually runs smooth just low boost and it did it for no apparent reason I did an ecu reset the other day and boost was back for a while but went back to 0.5bar

Thanks Andy yeah i thought it might be related to it, like maybe the ecu is putting it into limp mode because of the issue?

Okay after calling Subaru NZ they say dads outback was actually a 2010 model which is not good, the other thing is I wonder if my boost issues are because of the connector? mines an 07 BL5 Turbs

Interesting cos my dads 09 Outbacks cradle just melted and s*** itself I rang Subaru and they said no there isn't a recall on his model and that they couldn't do anything... I checked my 07 Legacy at the same time and advised there is one and a letter would be coming soon, recently my boost is down i wonder if the cradle/pump is the issue?

Hey got his in the mail too today. Glad to get it and can get it sorted out This is interesting does anyone know why the fuel pump needs to be checked and what year cars this applies to?
