  1. Why can't you use a MAP sensor instead?
  2. What is the problem exactly? The revs go up by 500 rpm when you put your foot down? Isn't that normal?
  3. It doesn't really matter though because no one is being forced to buy over priced, poor condition "classic" cars.
  4. Can you describe the vibration more precisely? Can you hear it or just feel it? Can you feel it through the steering wheel... or brake pedal etc. You say periodic... does that mean always above 90, or only above 90 but not all the time? Does it happen only on certain road surfaces?
  5. You are mostly wrong... diagrams and parts can be found here >>> https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/subaru?_s=h
  6. I think there's more like a 20 kw increase... as I reckon the 303 kw is from a previous run... the final tune looks to be under 300... but a few kws here and there is pretty meaningless... I think that extra torque will be good... and more importantly, I can (hopefully) use anti lag for more than 60 seconds at a time, as that makes a really big difference
  7. helicoil strong enough for brake calipers?
  8. Tune up with e30... mainly for safety when using anti lag... but there were some reasonable gains for not having to do anything more than mix the fuel and pay for 2.5 hours on the dyno.
  9. Maybe newsuba will lend you his Thesaurus.
  10. Those guys charge like wounded bulls on crack.
  11. I have to disagree buddy. Saying you can use whatever externally sized filter you like in no way implies you can use one with incorrect internal specifications. No more than it implies you can use a fuel filter that just happens to fit (though perhaps you can? I don't know :))
  12. it's just an oil filter... you can put whatever size you want on.
  13. Looks pretty tight... bumpy as hell right before turn in and then uneven camber.
  14. Horrifying. He didn't get away with only minor injuries though.
  15. Recently put Q8 75w80 in my DCCD box... half the price of Motul Gear 300 and has a good reputation. Motul use Q8 base stocks for oil their oils I have been told.
  16. Yeah, a moving part that can't be checked... but the one I saw had a fairly substantial bearing that will see very little load... will hardly move much at all... just gently sway back and forth with g-forces... and oiling shouldn't be an issue
  17. I have seen a subaru sump on a saker that has a rotating pickup... so the oil can't get away from it.
  18. RCM have EL sumps as well, I have one. Last time I was in need of a sump, they just said to get an RCM sump and be done.
  19. Actually I think the water is sucked back down through the turbo into the engine... but the effect is the same... turbo continues to have water flowing after engine shutdown. Thermosyphon. Early engines used it for cooling all the time... no pumps were used.
  20. I don't like Teslas, but that is an improvement in my book
  21. RCM carry the SuperPro range... so possibly also covered by James Marshall Motorsport??? I was thinking about trying super pro too.. more choice in terms of bush hardness and whiteline is just the boring same old stuff
