[Brake pedal feel....just not right??]

i had nagging brake feel problems, turned out to be the front sliders needed checking/greasing

[Whiteline Anti-Lift Kit Fitting Issue]

well another attempt saw them fit relatively easily, seems to help to keep the wheel on during fitment and carefully lower the car to the ground with the new component on but only the control arm nut done up so that the suspension gets slightly loaded then raised back up

awesome difference, almost zero diving under brakes, or lift during acceleration, also seems to help with turn-in response, and regarding power understeer, it feels like the car is actually pulling you out of the corner now rather than into it...noticeable increase in nvh though

mine were 350 from autolign in lower hutt for the "comfort" level bushings

I remember one side of mine being a bit difficult now. can you get them on at all?

If it was me, and they went on, but needed a bit of elbow grease, I'd probably not worry.

That's just me though.

after an hour on my back under the car wrestling with the passenger side i didnt bother trying the drivers side, it probably just needs better access and some more weetbix on my part

kca319a, at least thats what the packet says, but the parts look the same as the picture, so probably right

if you put a stock unit and a new unit together, do the bolt holes all line up?

or is it just the hole in the bush is not lining up?

yep, the alloy part is symmetrical as is the stock part, its just the bushing which seems a little thick where it butts up to the control arm

have you got them right way round,

like left and righ hand side ones? i had no issues with mine on my BH, but i do remember something being written on it on a sticker, be it, left right, or top... carnt remember

-smurff

I had no fitment problems... the original part should look almost exactly like the new part.... do they look the same?

apart from being a lot more chunky they look the same, it seems like the bushing is too thick but theres no way its going to squash the extra 4 or 5 mm i need to make it fit, its also pretty obviously around the right way

[Whiteline Anti-Lift Kit Fitting Issue]

howdy guys,

i recently bought the whiteline anti-lift kit for my 1997 GF8, however it doesnt quite fit, as in the chassis mounting holes dont quite line up, and its damn near impossible to get them to without some major heaving on the axle, plus the sub-frame mounting point for the control arm isnt really letting it settle where it needs to go due to the different fitment of the whiteline kit. Has anyone else had this issue, or am i just expecting it to be too easy

cheers guys

if this issue comes up with 2-pot fronts, check/grease the sliders...fixed the problem in my wrx

[Td-04 value?]

i sold my old td-04L with ~120k on it for $300

[21mm vs 22mm Rear Sway bar?]

my setup is stock struts with king lows...still a pretty soft setup so harder suspension would greatly affect the impact of the swaybar i would imagine

[21mm vs 22mm Rear Sway bar?]

my personal experience with sway bars is that i put a 22mm adjustable rear bar on my wrx wagon on the hardest setting which i believe to be equivalent to 24mm (its a whiteline bar) and the handling is very very neutral, when pushed too hard into a corner it just goes sideways unless you upset it by giving it some lift-off oversteer too late in the game

Ive still got a load of STI swaybars for you forrester chaps to install

hows about a 4 point brace

Jesus

How much boost was that!?

spiked to 18 i think, settled at 15-16 for the rest of the run...and Nick, how the hell did you fly past me on the back straight at taupo with a standard ecu, I guess ~10kW and a stripped interior does a lot ?

oh and my setup is V3 wagon with V3 sti computer and vf23

 CRRUPT said:

sweet thats good news, hopefully it bolts straight in im sure it will be the same physical size as an sti rack but im just concered on wether the fittings are the same or not , i just brought a full sti subframe hubs brakes alloy arms etc, so hopefully that gives the front end a better "feel"

i saw that on trademe, damn good deal...what you doing with the 4-pots?
