It's true, you do not need longer ones for fitting a 2" kit. However, he said they need replacing anyway so basically just cut out the fact that he just put a lift kit in, and he's asking where he can get replacement lines made up. :)

Take your old ones into a brake place and get some braided lines made up (longer than the originals of course).

I'm not sure if Enzed of Pirtek will have brake fittings, but a brake place I went to for my RX7 were able to make some up.

MY Twin headlight grilles

Just wondering what peoples' opinions are on the MY twin headlights grilles, I can't decide what I want. There are 2 options: 1) The 'venitian blind' style 2) The 'honeycomb' style If you know what I'm talking about then feel free to offer your preference and why! Purely cosmetical (unless one actua...

I multimetered my coil today and I was getting a nice 13.8V to the negative of the coil... How healthy. I spoke to an autoelectrician about the effects and he said with the earlier type of coils I will just get a weaker spark. Hopefully I will be able to get a bit more goodness after switching it ov...

On that note... If my coil is in fact wired incorrectly, how exactly is my car running? :oops:

Would that contribute to note being able to run as much timing advance as others... ie sometimes pings on 10degrees

Nah, I went and checked under my bonnet. Unless it's possible to reverse wire a coil, I'm not sure about polarity switching with coils. Hmmm, that makes me think of something else.

Purchasing www.ausubaru.com stickers

How would I go about ordering one of the ausubaru stickers that go across the top of your windscreen? A case of talking to Brett?
