Dumb Question Thread!

Rev c isn't the facelift. Only noticeable difference over older ones will be the blackout gauge cluster.

don't get caught up on the model years. Bh5c is a rev c no matter what way you look at it

Was there even a different prefacelift e-tune bodykit?

Whats the best way to clean up my exhaust manifolds and up pipe?

They have fairly heavy surface rust on the cast ends and over the gasket faces.

Would it be better to have the media blasted or acid dipped? Should I get them all refaced as well?

Will be coating them in black and heat wrapping them before I install them.

What grade/brand of brake fluid to people recommend for a GC8?

Actually let me rephrase - should i use DOT 3 or DOT 4? (as i will use Penrite brand, happy with the oil/diff fluids from them i have used)

Anyone know if there's any pattern to Bridgestone's 4 for 3 sales?

Have noticed that the best tyres for the money (unless you get trade prices and fit them yourself) are always Bridgestone if you buy at the right time.

Has anyone had an increase in road tyre noise after upgrading sway bars and or bushes? Wondering if I need an alignment as have changed rear bar, rear bar bushes and end links??

No, and no.

Swaybar has nil effect on alignment.

Placebo- paranoia? I don't know Timmah, it's annoying as anything though and I feel it's quite noticeable inside the car. Might head to Chamberlains, see what they say

Perhaps the swaybar is now doing something, causing moar noise, I did notice a similar thing in my original Legacy when I upgraded everything.

Having a little trouble with the legacy trying to get it running right.

Rich fuel smell and white smoke leaking out the turbo area somehow (all new gaskets on exhaust), also leaking out the end of downpipe. Double checked all rails for leaks and 99% sure it's not a basic leak. Is it likely to be an injector seal or could a dodgey o2 sensor give this same issue? The o2 sensor is pretty old but I have a spare here.

EDIT* found to be 2 injector seals leaking. Tested by priming the fuel pump(turn key on) with manifold lifted off engine and noticed 2 injectors dripping/pissing out fuel. Inspection of the turbo revealed oil pushing past the seals. But also seems petrol was somehow escaping the exhaust... Weird..

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
