3.0R-B spec Questions

Recommended Posts

Hi all. Got a new wagon on Friday, awesome to be back in a Subaru. 

Couple of questions. 

1. The second of two keys keyless entry button isn't working. When you put the key in the door lock, and open it the alarm goes off until you quickly put the key in the ignition and then the alarm goes off! It also doesn't open any door but the drivers. This is less than ideal! any ideas on how to fix?

2. I am the first NZ owner of the car, bought it off a dealer on the north shore. who is a good place to take it for a good initial service and look over? Subtech? Or someone else? 

 

Thanks!

+1 for @Subirex Automotive, have also heard good things about Subtech and they were really helpful when I emailed them about things in the past. Probably depends on where you are based too.  Subirex does after hours/weekend drop-offs, which is pretty much the only time I can take my car anywhere since I have a 9-5 desk job.

 

And welcome to the 3.0R club!

Yup yup, also another SubiRex Supporter here. You can go there have him check out your car while you look at mine being fixed once again haha. 

 

Hmm,I just dropped my car in as well and yours was there last time I dropped mine in...starting to notice a pattern here....

hahaha unfortunately it does seem like it but nah, something electrical in my car has caused a rather major issue, so motor coming out tonight and heads off... Should have pictures... 

 

Heres to hoping it's just a piston and no block / head damage

See the thing is, if it's just rings, then amazing as it could've just been a bad batch which would be very ideal overall.

it was definitely bore wash, but once that happens, rings get real warm, oil makes its way past and it requires a tear down. Maaaybe find a bit of gouging on the cylinder wall I reckon.

I got one private in te anau don't think I had seen a traffic light since it left Japan. Seemed pretty legit one nz owner lady in her late 30s so hardly trashed

      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
