The ***ALL NEW*** AUSubaru.com.au Forums

Spam seems to have stopped. Bugger I was just thinking of getting a loan today, anyone got any good contacts?

yes I cleared those too.

We had to do a full forum upgrade to allow the recapcha feature to be added for new sign-ups. This is now done (you might notice some slight visual and functionality changes) and recapcha is now in place. No new spam yet!

Yeah getting slammed today/tonight. Have cleaned it up again. Should be fine once the recaptcha facility is in.

Thanks for reporting. Yeah I've been aware of this. There have been 1 or 2 every day or so popping up and I've been manually clearing them. However we were just slammed with about 60 of them over yesterday and today. I've just finished clearing those too. The forum actually correctly identifies the ...

No problem.

Hey everyone - please watch this guy in case he causes trouble

How's the durability of those plastic joins? I've seen that system at bunnings and have often thought of making up a drawer system with it! Looks like it'd be very functional, great job. I was always a bit confused with how I would run drawers over the top of the "L series hidy-hole" without wasting...

hm no idea myself. perhaps there's something that can be done to help with that but I'm not sure myself. Please note that I'm not sure any of the actual mods even come here any more. Anyone who was a mod, should still be. I may be providing a hosting service and have ported the forum to this new pla...

With that budget you can get a decent SG Forester (2003 to 2007) and have enough leftover for a brand-new off-the-shelf lift kit for it.

From memory (and that's a big ask these days) I think these are standard height ones. I believe they were the factory listing for the RX Turbo Sedan and I bought these at the same time as the KYB shocks they're on. But I could be wrong, this could be whatever was in this wagon when I got it - I real...

checked for vacuum leaks?

I slipped under and grabbed a photo for you:

I passed my RX Turbo sedan (converted the EJ20 turbo and matching awd gbox) over WA Pits with stock standard brakes (new rotors on the front, good condition ones at rear). But much easier I guess because of:
1) WA pits are very easy to pass
2) The car was already factory "turbo"

Looking forward to some input on this too. My sump and headers have been hanging down like dogs balls since I built this car and I'm scared to traverse much more than sand! Need to sort something out.

Plenty, it's never scrubbed on the spring and that's thanks to the pepperpots with their offset. Bear in mind I do have Crossbred hubs but I think the offset of those is supposed to be factory anyway.

***Edit: hey look at that - we can say crossbred again!

Ah now that is cool. I've only seen that done once before. I played around with doing it myself before I'd seen anyone else do it but I wasn't game to cut through the wheel well and didn't have a lot of time to spend on it. Instead I chopped up the L series pedal, and a Liberty pedal and welded them...

I am somewhat happy that the main issue here seems to be exactly which emoticons work and which don't

Welcome. Cool, sounds awesome. Look forward to seeing the build thread. Interested to see how you sort out the hydraulic clutch setup, that's always a bit of fun!

Very interested to see how you go with the rear struts. I desperately need to sort out something decent in the back end for my rig. I need to catch up on this thread!

I don't think the home page was working for years from memory - people had trouble and had to find a link directly to the forum itself to actually access it. The Forum itself was targeted to rescue. Not sure if any other stuff was captured, or if it was even available to capture. Anything specific y...
