  1. You are probably giving it more welly to compensate for the dulled response. ECO mode will help when you're actually trying to drive economically.
  2. You give me your 42. I'll go buy my 24 back, and put the housing on my 36, you use the sweet hybrid on your group build, and the 37 goes on your daily. Job done!
  3. Our BP Legacy was plagued with central locking problems on all but the drivers door. My guess is either the little nylon gears are worn/ missing teeth and failing to engage, or the motor is on its way out. You can get replacement motors on trademe.
  4. They also lose out on torque for the first half of the rev range? How much bigger CFMwise is the GT30 over a VF2X?
  5. Yes, the point of it is to try and keep the airflow attached down the rear windscreen to give the spoiler cleaner air. This guy has a good channel for arm chair/ lay person aerodynamicists:
  6. I have a 24 for sale which is more or less identical.
  7. Hrm, from this it looks like it is. https://www.delicioustuning.com/node/568
  8. Is that model not ducted through the guard like older generations?
  9. No, he is pretty well respected. Did a stint up at DTech too I believe.
  10. Try it centre dash. It's a good perspective and you should be able to hear the car without all the buffeting.
  11. So the 'dinosaur' pump outperforms the aeromotive all the way from 55psi fuel pressure (15psi boost) to 100psi fuel pressure (60psi boost). So it seems disingenuous to claim the 044 is anything but the industry standard despite it's age or price. Can you do as well with less money? Possibly. Is it worth ditching a complete fuel surge system which is an entirely functional safeguard for your motor? Questionable.
  12. Haha, I might even go get it myself. Who'd have thought a forum of Subaru owners wouldn't visit Pick-a-part! Edit: gah, turns out there is a gate at the bottom. I must've been there when the RC car races were on =\
  13. The fix is the correct type of link. $30 or something from BNT. No doubt you can sell the dog bones for significantly more than that. But as Zeus says, ultimately, whatever you are comfortable with.
  14. The Whiteline ones will cost you about 7 times what the BNT ones will; for no appreciable difference.
  15. Yeah, it seems to roll/ ramp into throttle input rather than jumping to whatever you've depressed to immediately. Not sure about the Outback but our BP5 had the light go out above 3000rpm regardless of throttle input. It still seemed to be dulling response though which is good for economy obviously. We virtually never turned it off around town.
  16. Probably better off just getting a downpipe with high flow cat, a tune, and leaving everything else exactly as it is?
  17. Back when I was living in Freeman's Bay in Auckland someone was putting out a saucer of antifreeze to 'cull the feline population'. They like it because it's sweet.
  18. Just don't let your cat drink it.

  20. So that's~4% taller. Probably accounts to some degree for the difference in wheelspin =]
  21. VF24. Doesn't move much at all. Bites fingers if you're not careful though ...
  22. You really want /less/ unsprung weight for the suspension to be more efficient.
