Old Skool Subbie

lol, tbh; I thought it was fancy when we first got a legacy; cos the spare wheel was full sized, in the boot rather than in the engine bay haha xD

Those DL\'s are only 2WD ae? would be epic to totally ruin it by upgrading to an STi engine and running gear(massive reconstruction of the trans tunnel would be needed though) people would see it and be like pfft, then you\'d boost past them. hehe lol.

I\'ve seen some dodgy stuff, but never that dodgy. I\'m in no way adept with a welder, but I know I could do better patchwork than that! I\'m sorry to say your old brumby was sold to bogans!

Maybe they let an apperice attack it with a welder and grinding/cutting disk ?

I can weld way better than that too. only problem is I dont have a welder to use so can\'t blame the previous owner for that shoddy workman ship. It has a new motor in it too. They only brought the truck for the motor. One brumby they restored blew the motor up so they quickly brought my one as an replacement.

Just a quick message to say gday u fullaz! Good to see u guys still on here hammering away. Still driving my brumby happily also, though Im on the motorbike more than the ute! Classic car, modern bike...Buells are simply tops. Unless u want to thrash in the bush or at the beach...and then just go for the hack.

Anyhow, just saw a tear in my CV boot and there\'s a bit of vibration happening in the wheel. 60 bux apparently gets a new CV from Trademe, but thought I should check with you guys first...Let me know if you have any suggestions for getting the part etc?

In other news, just scored a dash cover, new, for 15bux...fits perfect. Shame that in the last 2yrs a couple splits have formed but now i just cover them up and walk away!!

Got pics of Dash cover? I need one to cover my Dash on my RX.

I go get new CV and CV boots s from CV Specialists in CHCH. They told me they supply Subaru NZ with the boots.

i think they are about $40AUD, so im glad i got it for 15NZD! Fits perfectly.

as for the CV, ill check with that supplier and see if its any better than $60bux

hows life treating u these days? working? still got ur brumby?

$60 for a new CV is pretty cheap, I would just do that, is it just the outer or does it come with the drive axle as well.

gday mate, i am trying to find more details. I already asked that question, just waiting for an answer. The TM auction is: 531534358, Brand New Subaru CV Joint. I thought it was cheap too, so was trying to find out if it will fit my brumby but it looks like its only the OUTER CV and not the drive axle also.

yeah that would be my understanding as well, the only reason why i asked is that extracting the axle out of the outer Cv is at best a bother and and worse it is gas axe time :)

I know I would rather go to the likes of BNT and spend a wee bit more and get one which includes the axle as well.

Yeah, im currently undecided. I\'ve got a bit of a wobbly shake that comes into the steering wheel from time to time and the CV boot is split. I have to take her in for a wof in a couple weeks, but regardless of that I need to fix it. Not regularly driving (got the motorbike), so can also wait, but not sure if I should replace the outer CV or talk to BNT. The axle looks ok still...but its a risk.

Nice to catch up with you again...hows your brumby(s) going? I finally got 15s also, but just steelies painted black. They came with brand new tyres, 5wheels, and only $250. Snowtyres tho, so ill replace them at half tread. Good price tho!

Well yes and no, once upon time I brought this with a blown head gasket for a tail light (the guy would not just sell me the tail light) I swapped the tail light, thru in a headgasket and fixed a few bits on it and then lent it to my step son for a few years while him and his wife got their lives sorted, they then have it back to me,I sold it to a young guy here who spent a bit of time and money on it, and now it being onsold

      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
