Does anyone know how to change the park light bulbs? its not as straight forward as my v7 sti where you just unclip the bulb socket and pull out. thought i'd ask before i break something lol
-
Before anybody posts anything else, apparently this person has already found something, as per their reply to my PM yesterday. Don't know why they haven't updated this thread though...

watch for Center diff probs - test by driving 20 mins at 100kph then do tight turning circles to feel for any binding or listen for noises
watch for detonation problems on these, one dude on here brought one and cud not for the life of anyone fix it (or afford dollarwise to be bothered), so the car yard he brought if from allowed him to pick another car off the yard, only run 98 octane in it
also rear diff bushes are common to go in these, you can vew them under the car, you Kwill see the cracks, and/or feel the diff movement
100KM service if a garage does it will be round $750-$1000 (depending) for a full cambelt kit
my advice... if you can afford it spend another 4K and get a single turbo BP legacy

Dealer just came back to me and said he will replace cambelt for the same price!
Hmm, ask if its a full kit, the full kit contains:
- idler bearings
- tensioner
- cam belt
- water pump
- thermostat
- cam seals
like this http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/car-parts-accessories/subaru/engines/auction-422989407.htm
also a oil pump service.. new O ring & crank seal, and tighten the screws with locktight (medium)
all in the name of having it done properly.. not JUST a cam belt
Thanks Man will do

Would probably get a pretty penny back for that bonnet, should you decide to sell it to a turbo owner.. no point in that car having a stonking great scoop like that LOL!
Lol!! Its definately the best looking legacy ive seen and test driven so far! Just unsure bout the loss of power and speed cos non turbo! Also its done 146,000kms
Every car ive looked at has its ups and downs lol i just cant decide!!
-
Yeah definately looks the part and is in great condition, i just took it for a test drive so am contemplating whether I can get over the loss if power and speed lol! I drive a v7 sti but need a another car for my dog. What do you think of the price they are asking for it? I tried to get them to come down but they wont budge.

thanks
how much cost involved?
-
Hey guys just wanting some help on cost effective mods for my sti v7, its stock standard at the mo from my knowledge, want to increase power etc, where do i start? thanks
-
sweet as man , thanks
-
why dont you drive your car and feel when it stops producing decent torque? as that is when you want to be shifting, anything else is a waste of time oh and btw, fyi... dont listen to everyone elses i set my light to 6500 as everyones car is different, its not a guide. its a personal preferance. omg
yeah i hear ya mate, i like it at 5500! omg!!!
-
yea 6500 is pretty good..
burt if i want the passengers to feel most acceleration thru the gears i do it at 5500 ..seems to get more "push" in the seat feel..
although the 6500 may be quicker on a timed run..
choose the one that suits u and try both lol..
yeah i think i like 5500 just so i can see the it light up more often lol
thanks guys!!!

-
ok guys so point me in the right direction so i can buy one lol
