  1. Sounds like you haven't had an 8200rpm limit before =P
  2. Maybe fine for a trackday depending on who's running it and what their rules are, but I don't think it will pass any MSNZ scrutineering.
  3. Hrm, if monthly running costs are already currently an issue, then storage and serving (bandwidth) of images is going to be off the hook. Why do you think Photobucket stopped allowing people to remote link images hosted with them without paying. Don't mean to hijack. Just saying.
  4. It might just not have any oil in it? Neither my 24 nor my 36 spun like fidget spinners when out of the car. They noticeably spin more than journal bearing turbos however.
  5. Could it be IACV, TPS or O2 sensor related? Is it running rich? Just guessing really.
  6. I know this was back in August, but I'd be looking for a VF34. At least 5 years newer than most options here; essentially the successor to 24/28/29s. A great number of people seem to have blown up 22s.
  7. I would definitely start with the AFM.
  8. I think both @albaru and @loner have run 215 or 225 tyres on stock 16s. Edit: hrm, not sure why usernames are not linking ... Not so hard was it @loner @albaru
  9. It will be pocket change to enter this; compared to buying wheels and tyres ... Al will show you which way to point the car.
  10. We are the second owners, but yes it was NZ new from a Subaru dealer.
  11. We just got a letter asking to bring the Tribeca in.
  12. I feel you on the supercharged H6. The 3.6 has been such an eye opener for me after so many turbo 4s. I still think people are massively underplaying what tens or hundreds of millions of dollars in programmable drivetrain technology will do for you in a point to point machine, but I guess this is ultimately about dreams, so whatever XD.
  13. This is such a ridiculous conversation, but for interests sake ... If I gave you $250k NZD, are you saying you could buy a McLaren, and with the change modify a standard road going Spec C, and then beat this car point to point on a WRC stage with both cars? Because Prodrive was clearly throwing away money on expensive stickers or something. Just wondering. http://subaruwrcspares.com/resources/P55+SRT+sale.pdf
  14. Nobody actually knows what a Subaru WRC car will make unrestricted though right? Perhaps Prodrive or some private rally team. Anywho, the expense of Clubsport racing is often massively over stated and/ or overestimated. Also, even with a slower less modified cheaper Clubsport car you will be driving faster and for longer at speed than even the most highly modified road car; unless you are one of the F***wits drifting around my neighbourhood at 3am on a Tuesday morning. In that case, I hope you stack it, lose your license, get the car crushed, lose your job, get shamed in the newspaper, and get community service plus pay reparations.
  15. Pretty sure a WRC coupe would make it in under the Special Interest Vehicles rules. They were road legal here back in 98/99. You'd need an authority card for the cage.
