Such as? ( not doubting it I do not like them ) just curious to hear some bad shit haha

Previous RS was an "MRT development car". Here is the SHORT list:

- My 3" turbo-back exhaust had no hangers. It was tie-wired up at the cannon. Also hung too low and the welds must have been done by a blind, down-syndrome monkey
- They cut the loom to install a Walbro (IDIOTS - it's plug and play) and didn't stagger the joins. This means I had bare solder joins sitting mm from each other in the tank, not immersed in fuel but sitting in vapours
- They didn't solder the turbo timer. It was twist/taped and left to swing in the footwell
- The alarm had been so badly installed I was able to remove it from the car by pulling on the control box. Twist/taped and done so bare wires could short out on each other, killing my fuel pump
- The chip they'd put in my ECU (RS Turbo = OBD1) ran 17:1 AFRs coming on boost. Hello, hand grenade
- They'd not installed the gears on the shafts properly, allowing them to move slightly, possibly leading to gearbox destruction.
- Wiring loom was a rat's nest - nothing was routed properly or neatly. Just jammed in there.

I can go on for days.

Walts. Your Dad owns ANZ.

Doesn't mean I have money.

I don't think S&J can even be compared to MRT. Their workmanship is amazing. The best in Adelaide by far, that's a given.

But they still get some of their products from dodgey MRT.

Yeah, Sean knows his shit (as his V5 coupe shows). However, I wouldn't trust MRT products or service. At all.

I'd rather drive a Nissan (spew vomit yuck)

A lot of the Forester community had issues. I'm not willing to dredge through the past, as I'm talking about 04'5'6 period.

One example, selling us a GB of bonnet scoops to suit GT Foz's - they were just WRX scoops, which don't fit without a lot of fabrication/modification - upon attempting to return the units "Installation is not out concern".

His 22B is the best.

14,000k's and gets trailered to car shows and never driven.

DO WANT.

Nik, shitty man! what a bunch of *****.

I can also vouch for Marv's old dodgy RS. Myfuckinggod.

Indeed. Gave me the shits and I'm no longer backward in coming forward with an opinion on MRT

FFS. It's a 90s Subaru, not a 250 GTO.

I'm sure it was still better than Tristan's H6 Gen 2.

I was joking.

The big end of the pod is usually the connection point.

Almost 1k. Wasn't something special going to happen when we cracked 1000?

You were going to buy Olympic park and host a huge BBQ/ Drinks Session with strippers and prostitutes and pools and other awesome things for Subyclub.
