will these suit an outback? or could you build a set for an outback?

Hey Tom, Congrats on the purchase, lovely car! My 2c worth of advice, don't even consider other options, get yourself a brand new radiator and just replace it. It's easy to do and gives you peace of mind. Either get a new OEM one, a reputable aftermarket option or best of all, a full alloy radiator...

Oh and PS.

Plans are:

2" Body lift
1" Spring lift
Bash plates
Roof racks
Doof doof
16" Foz wheels + A/Ts

Hey again everyone. So, I bought a car. Whoops! http://i61.tinypic.com/2zhiett.jpg Meet Uma, my 3rd Subaru now, and the 6th Subie in the family. She's an '03 plated, MY04, Outback Premium 3L H6. All the leather and electronic goodies you can think of included :D The H6 power is unreal considering th...

Are these still for sale?

That's the plan bennie, and yeah I figured it would be, when I sorted the rust out I noticed some perfectly round holes around the base of the sill so I left them as they were.

Cheers
Tom

Cheers taza I'll have a bit further look into the 27s then

Oh it's been a long time since I've updated this... The surging issue came back about 3 months ago so I got the shits and finally just sprayed the hell out of all the fuel lines with a compressor. When I got back to the tank and took the pump feed line off it was just trickling like a pensioners old...

Hey all, I've been away for a bit looking for cars :D but I'm back. Anyways. I'm after a 3L outback (04 shape/model) and I've found one, just looking at what size tyres I can stick on it with a lift kit. So, what are the biggest tyres anyone has fitted to a gen 2 (?) outback with a 3 or 4 inch lift ...

Speaking of wrx conversions, see if you can find one or something similar on Pickles etc since you can grab a whole car for less than a front cut and use interior bits etc. Finding one with a good engine is the trick. I've been chasing an EJ205 recently for a Brumby conversion but it's been slow goi...

Aluminium every time, whatever you can get really, it pretty much all acts as a heat-sink. +1 for the sheeting Steptoe. If you can get away with it, rip some headunits apart, they all have a nice big chunk of aluminium on the ass end that you can hack the teeth off, which acts wonders, also easy to ...

I'll be doing it all for the most part, still haven't decided whether to use Emma or this Brumby: http://ausubaru.com.au/showthread.php?p=227848#post227848 Once I get my car's thermo fans sorted and get my postie bike to have as a runabout this project SHOULD be starting :D I wanted to go for the EJ...

what width are the rims?

cheers,
Tom.

27x8.50R14 NANKANG A/T They're the ones I use on my RX, I'm pretty happy with them, bit better road grip than the Kumhos. I get them from Bob Jane, fitted and balanced for $149 each. Bob Jane also sell the Kumho Muddies described above for $169. Cheers, Tom. EDIT: Don't know what prices they'll be i...

Brace yourselves, EJ205 is coming...

nah found one about 2 days after I posted this mate sorry.

Cheers,
Tom.

Toonga's on it, steering rack would be my first check too. Stock engine? Could be torque steer if you're running a more powerful engine than stock but that's far less likely. If all else fails I'd be getting the front up on stands and running it to see what might be moving when it shouldn't. Cheers,...

Okay I'll have a look at it tomorrow if I get a chance.

Cheers,
Tom.

S2 brake lines look to be diff due to HHV.

I'm not sure. I know I have the full brake setup in decent nick out of an '86 Leone GL if that matches?

Cheers,
Tom.
