Stray currents.

controversial.

theoretically capable of destroying radiators etc.

but there's a lack of empirical evidence supporting the theory ?

Zerofcksgiven here tbh. Will check it one day if i cbf.

Started hearing a hissing sound when on low boost/coming off vac pressure. The hose the comes from the intercooler to the BoV had slipped out on the BoV side. Fixed that. The piping looking pretty worse for wear, so I may replace it with silicone.

Haha.. yeah of sorts.

Its the flash new roller bearing Scoobieclinic SC38 Billet. But its built by Blouch for Scoobieclinic.

initial build quality looks fantastic. It's a pretty unit.

TD05 turbine? So effectively a billet 20g with bb chra? Hopefully your next 6 monthly post will be a dyno sheet.

[WRXER]

Polished the gdb today, starting doing the final wax coat then decided snoozing is better.

[Fastfour]

Attacked it with the angle grinder again haha

Sold the old beast today, sad to see it go and be relisted on trademe for higher price but got what i wanted for it.

[WRXONP]

brought a vf30 to replace my baby td04 .... then out of pure laziness thought about a swapping it for a td05 lol

slowly getting bits to make it faster !!

[94 Leone]

Sold the 20g td05 lag monster; done 2000kms give or take and 60% return... dont buy chang; devalues waayy too quick. Bring on the td04 for legacy. Then she'll get a tidy up finish downpipe and hopefully someone will want to buy a spool happy sti powered family wagon.

[Guest]

Why not a vf?

[Munkvy]

Is this one of the Silverdale radiators? I got one recently and it doesn't quite fit properly on the passenger side, hits the chassis...

 94 Leone said:

Right. Will get onto that. Got some wire and o loop crimps. Cheers.

this should do it alright? Drivers side wire from fan mount to rad mount

[DacerX]

td04.....for a legacy? id rather have kept the td05 but just go to a 16g if your not cool with lag. but each to there own

[runrabbit]

took the door cards out of the front and scrubbed the f out of the grubby cloth section. used upholstery cleaner, stain remover, washing powder and water but it came up minters. rear cards next week.

Sell the td04 to stinger and pay the difference for his vf28. My v5 non sti was faster over the whole curve with just a vf23.

Started waxing(half done), after a full polish..and now have decided to go out and buy a buffer as I miss my buffer in chch as my arms are stuffed.

tempting; rather tempting indeed; but noticed in the legacy today some lines I'd used for the secondary breathers(used for v7 + but not on v5/6 or earlier) had been condensating like a mother****er so I'll be wanting to flush the whole oil system. - eww mayo :'( lucky she doesn't get driven anywhere anymore otherwise that coulda been quite an issue; it condensated badly enough in the lines for water to run out of it. when I removed it.

Frost plug time. just need some frost plugs that fit lol.

Do it the ecu will be scratching its head with td04.

As if it wasn't with a 20g td05?

Would be cool to have two very near identical setups(Bar exhaust) and have comparison.

[Guest]

Sti ecu, afm, c/r and injectors Ill be vf e'erday. Td04 work well on 4efte etc no place on a turbo ej. I have no further comment.

[94 Leone]

I've pm'd him haha. Dont get yer knickers in a twist

Sadly, but true. I'd like a VF24 and live with a few hundred rpm of lag, but moar goodness everywhere.

[Fastfour]

Made a bad fire with it.
