Ouch, were they new Bushes? Always a Right and a Left...Still useable, just push it back in.

Yeah.. its the Anti Lift Kit

Managed to push it back it, but the tube didn\'t actually fit on the control arm rod =(

Need to sort out returns and rinse and repeat.

Not looking forward to taking off and putting on the U brace again. =(

Breaking the 19mm and 22mm bolts were interesting too.

The Bushes Tube and the A-Arm Shaft, are both Tapered. 3-4ft Breaker Bars the one. ;D

Are you lowering the Car to Normal Ride Height before tightening the Anti-Lift Bushes? Otherwise they\'re Anti-sag, or can\'t do their job at all.

Yup, had breaker bar, pulled myself on the control arm, and used my leg to push to break them off.

Pretty moot now considering I cant get them installed. I have to put the original ones back one.

I was planning to tighten them a little bit, then go for an alignment and get the guys there to tighten to torque spec.

This week my 99 GTB had a new clutch fitted as the old one was slipping badly - also bought the car with parallel turbo set up so had that reverted back to normal twin turbo, gave the exhaust back a proper Subaru rumble.. and got more mid-range now :)

Was superlap at Taupo as part of the NZRDL series.

Destroyed two semi slicks, delaminated one slick and cracked a front brake rotor.

On a positive note the oil issues I\'ve been having are sorted.

And the MapDCCD controller is amazing!!

Installed some genuine HID headlights in my SRX… Had to do a bit of a study of the wiring schematic and subsequently do some crimping, but relatively straight-forward after some research!

maybe i shouldve asked here first before buying a conversion harness.. :\'(

did you get the levelling switch to work? got a diagram? ;D

I haven\'t connected the leveler at this stage, may just run it fixed. Need to source the switch! Not sure if the same wiring loom comes in all V7 Imprezas as fair as the leveler circuit already being there… I\'m leaning towards no :/.

Ah I don\'t have a schematic for how I did it, but can draw one up for you if you\'d like?

u dont have to leave it connected to a source - it defaults to the lower position automatically

Pedaling it rather than using an engine is gonna get tiring!

I finished off my exhaust today, bolted it back on then put the car back on the ground. Now I need to drain the three year old 98 octane (would be about 42 now....) out of it and change the oil. Then it\'s ready for tuning ;D

      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
