  1. what do you want to know? it's mostly custom parts everywhere so not for the faint of heart/wallet
  2. ah whoops i should clarify im talking about the rear bar only, front is ok for now/less important. Impreza bars do fit the front but the rear bar is very different. Interesting thought about the GRB bars, might be hard to find one to test fit... Couldnt see anything applicable on 41auto, might just have to go for the whiteline one There are a few slightly larger ones in the US but shipping would be prohibitive.
  3. incorrect [quote name='GC8E2DD said: The torque split shouldn't change. correct Increasing the dccd lock reduces the slip differential between the front and rear wheels
  4. Yes prova legacy, dont know about getting custom ones... sounds like a drama stock BE bar is 17mm so anything will be an upgrade and impreza bars dont fit
  5. I see a whiteline fixed 20mm and a cusco adjustable 18mm available in NZ. What other options are there?
  6. I wouldnt go anywhere near a D1 anything... here is your solution http://www.clubsub.org.nz/forum/index.php/topic,18282.0/topicseen.html
  7. with two 1000hp fuel pumps you'd be stupid not to.
  8. The flow rate is too low for a Y fitting to make any significant difference over a T shaped one
  9. Currently using twin vf28's but it is still has a tiny bit of compressor surge in 6th gear. Making around 240kw at 1bar and 290 at 1.3bar. Spool up is pretty similar to a 2L + vf23 Previously had straight entry td04s, but they choked the top end quite badly. I cant remember the turbine housing size but even the turbine wheel is smaller than the vf2x/vf3x sized wheel anyway. you can see here 1bar arrives at about 3900rpm. With more boost 1bar is about 3600rpm. Doesnt feel at all laggy and given the surge, i think something with a p20 would be a good match. Either two vf22 or 23s. That, or a gt3076 .82 or bigger anyway. But we're keeping this car with parallel turbos in keeping with it's original theme
  10. It would, but then the turbos would be far too small
  11. wheel alignment guys wont touch it i suspect, but it's diy'able
  12. huh? why does the manifold make a difference? bottom outlet goes to water pump top two inlets are from the turbo and the radiator end tank
  13. assuming the camber on each wheel is the same, it's quite likely the subframe isnt bolted up in the middle. you can get some subframe lock bolts from whiteline to centre it actually if there is nothing that would adjust camber on the rear already then it is definitely the subframe out of alignment
  14. yes, and the other the expansion tank return dont block them, they operate the thermostat
  15. hamptons you can hit 200+ no problems. this was covered a while back, putting a switch on the speedo signal is fine for brief stints. if it's a dedicated track car, you should get a proper ecu for it
  16. not much to it really you might have some trouble with the rear subframe though, i think it doesnt fit well with the shape of the legacy boot
  17. the feet match, you will need to 'adjust' the fuel rails though
  18. When everyone is commenting on best tuner/worst tuner, are you looking at your maps to see how much attention to detail has gone into them? Or judging purely on how the engine feels afterwards?
  19. no, it has a smaller turbine
  20. Interesting selection of parts, do you have a gt40r lined up? ;D
  21. I agree The wheel base change between models is 10-25mm. And that change was only to better the suspension geometry as far as i can tell. The difference in wheelbase would be pretty negligible Changes in centre of gravity make a big difference to handling. Weight up high is a penalty
