ID tag lists Trans too aye, ya pushing poo up a hill with that one sorry the PRND321 on the dash might give it away too the cost involved in swapping a CANBUS equipped car these days too is also prohibitive and will be more work than you may realise ❤️

searching his name gets rather entertaining on FB & leads to this news article etc https://www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/350149093/car-sold-twice-online-never-delivered?fbclid=IwY2xjawJKyoZleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHceB5kvM56GNgMBaR8qPSoaNwXWUeeNcya7f0U2T3nsEivpRtwUQkqDDgg_aem_4GjbhlkSzt0HQ6f5hCGLRQ

lets add to the list this guy : rather prevalent on FB apparently source : the Subaru NZ Enthusiasts fb group Jake Marshall << Profile on FB if everyone wants to report etc

haha & yep! lol (in general) Mates a Cert guy & some of the stuff he puts up in his stories really scares me (cars turn up for cert checks with no gas / bald tyres and loose / wrong wheel nuts is only the start eh knocking steering arms on exhausts (hot rods) seats and often even Belts held in by hopes & dreams (bolts but no nuts) hand tight nylox, yeah hand tight, not even engaged...
-
in theory yes I agree but in reality can people (the Greater-unwashed-Public) really be trusted to do bolts back up tight, or even use the right washer? Especially on critical safety items like Brakes or steering ❤️ kinda why Juddies (Adjustable Suspension) = Cert : are all 'basic' top hat bolts / brake line clips & ride height checks pretty sure anyone logged onto this Forum is capable = yes then there's the FB Group Mechanics yeah nah

Plan for a LVVTA Cert too Fun police here : as soon as you change or touch the Brake Pedal from OEM you need a cert Technically & Legally Speaking ❤️ even if you're simply swapping factory parts they are NOT OEM to that car yes, it can be done, yes people have got wof's without a cert after such a swap I'm trying to find the thread on here, it has been covered before BUT reasonable difficult to search "terms" and it is actually covered on the LVVVTA Site FAQ https://www.lvvta.org.nz/knowledge_base.html screen shot : text version

Joker replied to Bulldog37's topic in Legacy & Outback
This is one of the earliest Dyno Sheets of my TT (the 1998 BG5c) = 160kw bonus actual video of the Rolling Road setup & run on a Digital Camera with no Mic October 2004 not long after I traded in the 1990 BC GT for it Sorry no RPM's but a notable dip in power / torque : No-ones been able to explain the funky backwards lines but I think you can see the VOD there on the PSI chart 2007 Hub-dyno Petone I call it 180 kw WITH Boost Spike : split 4mm or 6mm hoses on the top of the intake -

that's a little low in the rev range but "could" be what we call the Valley of Death is the changeover point between Single small Primary and Parallel Twin turbo mode (both) I'll see if I can find a Dyno graph of my BG5c in the garage thread or archives photo bucket has eaten the images (but I know I have them @ work so please wait 10-12 hours hah -

Looking for part, and shipment to the United States
Joker replied to Opiewho's topic in Legacy & Outback
snap : I was about to copy & paste the Part # there too hah ❤️ or Partsouq : although availability there = 0 apparently :'/ https://partsouq.com/en/search/all?q=73210AE060 is it "just" the aircon radiator assembly? or what is the issue can you be a bit more specific ❤️ at this stage I'm assuming you've had a frontal impact? or a 'projectile' experience? not something I've experienced but eager to learn and / or help -
Anyone found a good canbus resource for Subaru?
Joker replied to Gripless's topic in General Vehicle Discussion

Nothing Subaru as of the past 4 years? Other than Put a Battery in it and move it to mow the lawns still needs a head gasket : still have a Spare V4 Motor on a Pallet in my Shop Instead : I put a Battery into the Red car and Drove it to Local Car Club Meeting last night 😎 Auto-X's coming up so now I have motivation to fix that!
