  1. Theres different optioned cables etc for later model cars that allow different options. Browse the web site for more info or give them a ring. Good dudes at stahl.
  2. You can have our tax payer funded $4 a fortnight you mean
  3. Ive still got a house for sale down there. $186k. Large double garage with work shop, fenced, heat pump, 3 double b/rms, modern kitchen and bath. Private sale, hit me up. Cheap cheap!
  4. http://www.stahlcar.co.nz/subaru-9909-usb-diagnostic-tool-p-193.html?zenid=0a1b26339be457ffe699816ff6c060b2 father in law has one too. loves it. plays with it all the time...the cable i mean.
  5. Theres an article in the herald i think awhile ago that outlines what the public perceives a BR to be namely - 1. scoop 2. mags 3. large exhaust pipe (not loud, just a large pipe) 4. stickers 5. spoiler (of any kind) pretty silly article as that covers 99% of factory vehicles too.
  6. Wing mirrors and intake make it over the top for me. Rest is ok.
  7. Shoulda said mate im a dab hand on those. Plus theres a write up on here I did
  8. Cant remember where i got that from. Might have been trademe. Was a good scoop. Served its purpose well. Have you repainted it?
  9. And he wants a ducati..ah huh.
  10. 10/11l per 100km on the coon and 12 for the legacy. From my looking.
  11. Haha i shell resurrect with a late model wrx in the near future.
  12. Same thing. The old BF/BAs were abit gutless but the new FG engine in the normal xr6s are quite good. Similar to the newer SV6s they drive well.Ive never been a Ford guy but id buy another one. Certainly not going from Subaru so will be looking for another wrx too.
  13. The FG engine isnt the days of old where they chucked a huffer on the dirty old 4.0ltr...this ones a whole new engine designed to run the turbo. Ill have a look one night and see what turb it actually is.
  14. The new 4.0ltr is quite good. Slightly more economical than the Legacy. The only thing is trying to teach the wife it aint a 4 wd any more so light ly lightly around the wet round about. She tends to mash the pedal abit as not used to an auto.
  15. http://www.stahlcar.co.nz/elm327-bluetooth-obd2-diagnostic-tool-p-167.html for obd2 compliant cars http://www.stahlcar.co.nz/subaru-9909-usb-diagnostic-tool-p-193.html - another good one for subaru. Father in law has one and works very very well.
  16. I had a purple blue cadbury colour Legacy, is an awesome colour.
  17. Surprisingly not that expensive. Picked it up for 18k with 150 kms on it BUT long kms and its immaculate. The G6Es are the plush variant, the xr6t with the tech pack is the one to get. Bonus for the leather from what the aussies tell me. Alot of room a lot of power. Ill get some pics today. For the G6E your looking at 25-30k with over a hundy on the clock.
  18. So drove the FG Coon. Put the buggy in the back. Can still put a full load of groceries in around it and then some. Ended up buy an 08 FG falcon xr6t. 270kw 6 spd auto. Has the tech and and luxury pack options. Full leather, 8 speaker system with sub from factory. In car control system. Very very rapid car and ill tell ya, more economical than the leggy! Now to work out how to talk her into another wrx for me!
  19. Anyway, soon find out. Test driving a 08 FG falcon xr6t tomorrow. Ill chuck the pram in the boot and see what happens!
  20. I guess you dont have kids. Have you ever tried to fit a Plus 1 double pram in the boot? Nothing fits it but the Legacy and even then its completely full! However. When we put it in the Falcon we pushed it right forward and could fit a full load of groceries in behind it with room to move. My mate used to put 3 bread crates in his commodore then his tool boxes either side and then pack 5 work mates in. Legacy wouldnt have a sheet show on that.
  21. We looked at the BP as that was first choice for me obviously but no way did it have as much space as the either the commy or falcon. Currently looking at a 08 FG xr6t 6 spd auto, leather nz new. All within budget too and 270kw.
  22. Temp sensor, o2 or afm. If its fine when its warm id narrow that to o2 or temp sensor. So start with the temp sensor.
