BTW, does anyone have an E10 Deep Drive Torx socket lying around in Melbourne? I've got one on backorder from Snapon... 4 weeks :?

If you're ever about the SE Suburbs then I could chuck my old Hitachi carby on and we can see if that makes a difference? Mine has a manual choke so would be able to count that out.

The center is out, didn't have to remove the bearings or grind anything. Prety happy about that! The interesting/notfun part will be putting it in my 3.7 :?

Ok so after some more research I need a Torx E10 deep drive socket. This is all well and good, Snapon sell these and I can order one online. However, the LSD diff I have does not have stub axles attached by Torx bolts. Does anyone know how I can remove the stub axles? There is a 3mm hole down the ce...

LSD center changeover

So I got a Liberty RS 3.54 LSD today. Just confirming what I've already had a read of for changing ratios... I keep everything from my open 3.7, apart from the actual diff center correct? I may have to grind a bit out of the sides to accommodate the LSD correct? I need some special tools to remove t...

Speak to the people at http://www.offroadsubarus.com as the users there mainly have Foresters or Outbacks.

They'll be able to show you some different designs and also places to get them!

From what I've read, I believe minor modifications (possibly slotting of holes) is all that is needed to make them fit on the EA82. Power gains are a tough one, I have just fitted the Twins on my EA81 and I noticed a fair bit of low down torque gain, however I was a little disappointed in top end im...

Maybe you could try 1 bigger thermo. I know from other forums that 1 16" thermo will flow more air than 2 10" thermos. Maybe something to try?
