In Topic: How much oil does a 2006 wrx take?

If you take it all out including the filter, just put in a whole 5L container

Its 4.7L stock...and the extra 300ml will give some extra incase youre burning some

Been doing this for years in both my subys with no issues, and was recommended to do this by a few very reputable tuners

Cluse Bros clearly know what they are doing.
They used the correct spot and managed to do no damage to the skirt which is something the majority of liberty owners fail at when they use the vehicle's supplied scissor jack.

In Topic: EJ251 Air Con removal

All the ac gear...including every single wire, relay and plug from the loom while it was out,(except the ac switch now just turns on the extra fan for when sitting in staging) the core, brackets,bolts and pipework etc added up to a touch over 11kg on my rs liberty...and i even installed an alloy alternator/air con mount from a gd and trimmed as much off that as i could that was used to hold the ac compressor

But....and its a big BUT

My car is 99.9% a hillclimb car/toy that goes on the road for a cruise once in a blue moon...so it was justifiable for me and what i wanted out of the car

Also at the same time i removed all deadening, brackets and even the carpet underlay, put lightweight rear seats in..and put a 1kg lithium battery in to lower as much weight as i could off the car..but in particular the front end to counteract the push through understeer our cars love

Honestly the biggest and best thing it did....was clean up the bay and give me a nice spot to put a catch can lol

If it wasnt the toy car i specifically built it for i would have kept it but intsalled a GD setup instead, so youve gotta ask yourself what you really want from the car as its not a performance car by any means?

Though....

If you really wanna remove it...then go ahead as its your car after all...but dont expect big gains

Do that along with alloy control arms, lightweight battery, and move the washer bottle to the back and youll notice it feels better to turn and lighter in the front

20 to 30kg off the front end will make a world of difference to the front end feel!
