Hope you went for lime green replacements, to really liven up the engine bay.

Haha.
Spotted a BRZ rocking lime green calipers in the HVC photos. That guy knows what's up.
PMing you Mark.

I must say, I'm actually quite suprised how clean the turbos are. Especially with a split like that in the tract. Should be oil gunk forking everywhere!
It's pretty much guaranteed 111% you will break the breather lines on the back of the tract when taking the manifold off a TT. There's just no easy way to do it without breaking them.
The only real way I can think of to take it off without breaking the lines, would be to cut the hose between the tract breather and PCV stack, and then just replace the hose. Rather a cut hose than snapped fittings!

Mark clearly doesn't do 'gunk'.
If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?

Even the two PCV hoses were rock hard and snapped when purposely flexed. Had the same issues on other Subaru's, just age.
A few hundred $$ of brand new parts fixes the problem to see my ownership out. 
Overall its a pretty clean engine, no leaks of any kind at all.

I do, but I clean it when required.....

Just picked up an Auto Light unit for a Gen2. Interesting to see the differences. The auto light unit itself is exactly the same but the gen2 loom piggybacks into the light stalk and also requires a vamp tap to grab power from elsewhere.

All back together. Road test to the bottle-O and all smooth and no issues.
Nice to be back in the GTB after driving the Golf and Kia Rio for two week's.

Beautiful.
Do you shave your brake discs on every pad change by any chance?

You should if they have a lip or grooves but as these haven't done many km's since I fitted them new and are perfectly smooth I didn't bother.

Greedy, extremely profitable, multi-national company ($800 mil profit last year) wanted to add a few more $$ to their bottom line and sacked all maintenance in favour of re-hiring them through a different company at a lower rate with less favourable conditions.
Were fighting it. See where I end up in a few weeks / months time.
