I saw these rims on there the other day, I think I messed my pants, but they are about 2000 out of my price range

Thanks for all your help though Shane, been very much appreciated.

Feels weird knowing you don't own the rsk anymore.. It was your pride and joy.

Ps I like how this thread has been hijacked but so many technical questions have been brought up and answered!

Looks real nice Brendan. I love the colour.

When the time comes for the Gen III to go, I'd like one like yours next.

Have you converted it to RWD yet so you can do skids?

I really thought you would have owned a VL T by now.

[Alex]

I think he's moulding fibreglass guards as we speak for the conversion.

then it'd be a matter of two toning it with silver, and slapping some chasers on it.

HAHAHAHA!

Nice pickup, although I saw an awfully increasing trend on one of these just the other day, broken shaft in the turbo, subaru don't want to know about them, pretty common apparently, so your thoughts on keeping the exhaust tame might be well worth doing.

That post Paul has just filled me with confidence..

Ps I shit you not, I already got quotes on a rebuild within 3 days of owning it.. Because I'm expecting it.

They reckon it's got a titanium shaft or something supposedly, if it pops on converting to a different turbo and launching the twin scroll setup.

Thanks Shane, you could've told me!!!

To be honest, most threads i've read about turbo's popping, 90% of them have been tuned by MRT!.

I'm hoping it's the manual's turbo that pops more readily than the Auto, but knowing my luck...

I don't know why, but I have this constant mis-trust when driving the subi, like I know it's going to blow up and it's just a matter of when, where with the Honda it never was in my mind at all.

Shane, I'm hearing great things about this Pulse Racing guy, everyone seems to swear by their left nut about him, can you back him up to?, I might have a chat with him about the car, and possibly get my 100k done there or see how much he'll charge.

ALSO.. I'll buzz you during the week shane and pick up a can of UEC?

cheers

Brendan, I can vouch for him doing good work. I am very happy with the tune on my car.

Supposed to be well priced to, ay Josh?

Indy is like 500m from my house, and I have great trust for his work, but he's not an O.G Subaru know it all,

He knows his way around them, don't get me wrong, but this Pulse guy seems to know his kit!.

With PhatGT / Michael, is this bloke a shop or just a hardcore subi fanatic?

[Mosti]

I've got some King Springs if you want to lower it Brendan. Travelled less then 15,000km

[XXB4XX]

Might think about it dude, the car sits relatively low as is to be honest.. compared to the B4, the GT looks slammed!

The rear of them sits at a perfect height. But I think the fronts could go an inch lower.

[XXB4XX]

I feel ya, but it's still not too bad..

I know you're all gonna laugh, but i'm booking her in for walls on the tyres again

I'm thinking baby blue, or maybe white.. see how I feel on the day, red won't go with the blue of the car

I know you're all gonna laugh,

and you'd be right!

[Richo]

Go white

[XXB4XX]

Richo, WTF is that?

and Walts...Jam it.
