  1. Is there a brand or type of grease that people would recommend?
  2. What sort of price are we talking here for say some 17" wheels
  3. My one was the suby specific model, that does not come with its own solenoid
  4. If i wanted to order some wheels say boost 17", 8", 48, and get them with the next shipment. Would that be possible?
  5. I don’t think that they work on pre 96 Subaru, something to do with since all it does is change signals coming and going to the ecu, it has to be the right signals. I have one its ok, it does let the boost move around a bit, admittedly slowly, but you might lose/gain a psi every week or two
  6. Do you know an easy way to identify the short steering rack? as my new v8 sti has a "quick steering sti" sticker on the back, so maybe it has the short rack as well ???
  7. could be better, i have had as low as 9l/100kms, with a v4 wrx with a ra box, on a long trip, and can get an easy 10.5 just driving to work etc. I also just got 10.6 with my new v8 sti, when driving it back from rotorua
  8. I the most technical terms it does require certification is the drive shaft is not the one that came with the car. I know that you will be using an OE drive shaft for a manual Subaru, but that is not the way our rules work! However if you went from an auto to a 6 speed gearbox that would be legal is they use the same length drive shaft, however I doubt anyone would ever pick you up on this.
  9. I need to do some back to back driving (I still have my v4 wrx, its on trademe) to see how they compare
  10. Pity it feels slow, i dont think it is though, just feels slow because you cant hear the engine.
  11. Yep, and im not getting the spec c, 57ks won out! should be getting it on tuesday
  12. + 1 to that, my work mate said that it should be 250nm of torque from memory for the crank pully
  13. I have heard it both ways, half thickness steal, or alloy, but dont know which
  14. The reason i am doing this is to help decide which on to buy, i have been offered a good price on a STI and a average price on a spec c
  15. Didn’t think they were any lower, but defiantly a bit stiffer
  16. What does the v8 spec c get/lose vs a normal v8 sti? What i know: spec c got the vf36 turbo, which has better bearings than a vf37 thinner (or alloy) roof and boot metal less sound deadening thinner glass Larger intercooler water sprayer 2540mm wheel base (vs 2525) with extra caster 50L (vs 60L) baffeled petrol tank No side skirts 13:1 steering rack (vs 15:1) optional wind up windows roof vent More boost? Harder shocks? nicer wheels (BBS)? Anything else?
  17. Didn't the guy get told to run a v10 map sensor, and he's already talking about forged pistons. lol. However much power you have it's NEVER enough
  18. Do you still need one im back in wellington, and im sure that i have one in the garage
  19. Its not like another car will not use any fuel, the best you can really expect is a saving of 1-2L per 100km (my experiance). I would rather drive a wrx over a shit box for a few bucks a week
  20. If its a 5 speed manual it should have a number 12 on it
  21. I just had Lone Star in Invercargal, it was good, and the Speights ale house is always good every where else in the country and I think I will be going there when I am come back through
  22. Well I went to the Waihola tavern, because it was accross the road and the boss dident want to drive into town, grrr. I will be staying in Dunedin for a week in early march so might try some of them out then
  23. The boss only likes paying about $30ish a main, its prob a bit to much
  24. I am staying in Dunedin for one night and am wanting to know a good restaurant to go visit, any style of food considered. I look forward to your recommendations
