Ive seen that wing on Yahoo. No covers for mounts and badges are Ebay generic items.

[Matt]

Yep its no stress to remove it

But yeah if that pic is showing the bottom side then no the filter holes is not on the right side....and seeing the sides lipped up makes me think that is the bottom?

Filter is on the drivers side...sump plug on the passenger...so yeah just seems off as said

[Matt]

Worse comes to worse just cut a hole and possibly makr a cover to bolt over the holes like some of the other brands do

Que?

 

Every Subaru I've been under has both on drivers side.

 

[duncanm]

yup - will line up perfectly.

My recollection was the two rear mounting screws were further from the sump plug -- but its clear from Sam's picture above they're pretty close.

Only issue will be grasping the filter - maybe it protrudes through the plate an inch or so.

and weeps oil from multiple places

No issues with grasping the filter, I use a filter socket.

those are factory leaks so you know there's still oil in it

[CRUISN]

Mine has zero leaks..... touch wood.

After recent discussion about the engine undertray, I purchased one. Was thinking just oem but seeing as all current exhaust parts are Prova, may as well go with a Prova tray.

 

 

I was thinking the same thing, especially as a kangaroo cracked mine and it's now furry. Might check out the beatrush ones though

Ok yeah never owned a older sumped suby and after only dealing with my own cars i assumed most were the same.....i was wrong,good to learn something .

Though you obviously havent seen may subys?

Twin scroll/207 and 257 sumps all on the other side ....same as the majority of aftermarket sumps

But if you actually read what i wrote youd see that i said "if the pic is showing the bottom side" ie the side facing the road

If thats the case it obviously isnt so all is good

aha - who knew there was a tool fir these things.

I use a rubber glove - unless the mofo has been put on by some Conan the barbarian idiot, then a clampy thing or screwdriver (gasp).

H6 is side on, I believe?

 

Hah, nah... I don't work underneath them lol!

 

I guess I learnt something as well.

 

But being a stock Gen 3, it should be the same side for both.

[Matt]

Yep all good...just caught up in what I know lol

Sorry young Mark..do carry on

Filter socket makes it so much easier. You can get adjustable ones, I just have the one that suits Subaru oem filters.

Im a sucker for gold wheels on a white car and the ADVAN RS are my favourite rim out of the mutlitude I've had on my Subaru's so when these gold 18" RS rims with near new Hankook tyres came up, the want was high so I purchased.

 

[Joss]

Mmmm, good choice Mark

[zahmad]

[Jimbo]

Cos' it will be a stark reminder for how shit mine is
