  2. CDM have a good reputation amongst the Honda community, and also assisted with tuning one my cars in the past. Can't comment if that translates into being a reputable Subaru tuner.
  3. Hardly a problem sending them - I sent mine away
  4. I have recently been reviewing the current GPS device units on the market and have narrowed it down to the following: Monitored GPS from reputable established company in NZ i.e Snitch Pros: After sale support, on going software updates, precise tracking Cons: Cost of product, on going month my month software access costs Ebay/TradeMe device Pros: Low entry cost, some devices come with online monitoring, txt alerts Cons: After sale support, unknown quality, no re-assurance online features will be on going for devices which offer the tracking services The third option was mentioned to me today by my electrician. In his own words, he said I should not tell you this, but your best and by far cheapest option is install an old phone in the car which runs of a permanent car charger power supply. You then install the "Find my Phone" App and away you go. I would be interested to know what peoples thoughts are on the above, but not with giving to much away given this a public forum. One would think the Find My Phone App is best if you have a spare phone and are not prepared to part with the increased price for a top of the line product.
  5. I had some headers done in the polished finished look. Kept heat down to a certain degree, but I think heat wrap or a combination of both would have been better.
  6. Weird thing - I start the car this morning with no problems, no check light and has been fine all day - thus far!
  7. Sorry,no boost gauge but would assume standard boost being run subject to this fault. AFM fault - does this simply sound like I need a new AFM Re 66 - I suppose I will just need to take it to a mechanic and hope he knows what he is doing. At least I won\'t be paying for a diagnostics check. I am just hoping its not a blown turbo or something expensive. I have just spent over $2.5k getting my honda head being re-built as of last week due to a engine check light fault and running rough at idle.
  8. Ok - have run the CEL codes, but have not re-set the ecu as yet. I have: 23 - air flow sensor? - Open or Short . This one could be historic as it appears my air flow unit has been reconditioned sometime ago and also appears first. 66 - Sequential turbo system - No rise in pressure or pressure excessive (Over boost) In english what does this mean?
  9. Hi all, Drove my legacy home today all good. I then get back in it to go for a drive a couple of hours later and I realise the engine check light is on. :-\ The car drives fine, but once you accelerate moderately with a little force, the car will start moving well and then reach a point when the engine or turbo cuts out like a surge or jolt. You can cruise along on the motor way or the streets fine, its when you apply a little bit of acceleration with very minor force this fault occurs. Any ideas? - have never experienced this before.
  10. Shipped a bumper door step to step through these guys. Provide instant online quotes as well. http://www.shipmytrade.co.nz/
  11. That is very informative -thank you! Picking up on a couple of your comments - I think I have heated mirrors, there is a little switch by the mirror adjusters, there is also some kind of heater switch on the center console in front of the "snow flake" hold switch, there is also dual air bags, but no woodgrain enhancements. Did the GTB\'s or GTB Limited have a bigger brake package-noticed in the image there is a picture of the discs and calipers.
  12. Neat - anyone got a catback exhaust - I have a Genome muffler thus far, just need the pipe work now.
  13. Did you do a panel filter and a cat back exhaust system? - this is what I am going to do - what exhaust size did you go for? Re fuel economy - how did this improve economy I though it would be the same or worse without a tune? Sorry for so many questions
  14. $400.00 p.a with state - includes road side assist. Been with them for a while now and have the Honda,House and contents with them as well - makes it cheaper.
