Yeah that was mine.
It's 3" lift with 215/80/15's. The problem with tyres that big is clearance. i chewed out 2 rear tyres when fully loaded. I'm looking to get new springs and 2wd rear shocks.
I've only tested it on gravel in the hills. Looking to go down to whitehills and test it on the sand and do a bit of fishing.

Spotted a nice Subaru Leone on the Kwinana Freeway heading north, this morning around 7.15 with the wacky workshop sticker on the back. Sounded nice. I was driving my Forester.

Yup, I did see ya mrs in the passenger seat. Your car sounded good mate

I was on the way to get my clutch replaced. Getting her back tonight!
When you can drop the clutch in 5th gear, with the handbrake on and not moving and your engine just keeps running....you know it's time to fix it. hehe

It's been running like shit for almost 2 months now and I havn't had a chance to fix it. I can't wait to have my boxer power back!

thanks :P
out of interest this is the setup;
- standard RS turbo headers, turbo and dump pipe (cat inbuilt to dump pipe)
- 2.25" press bent exhaust piping
- 2.5" "sports" straight thru rear muffler (this was already on the car when I got it, was originally being used with the old EA82turbo). Doesn't appear to have a brand on it.

spotted my old orange wagon today.... at Jap wholesale getting a new engine and wiring sorted.... apparently the old engine shat itself not long after i sold it. Didn't get details on exactly what was wrong with it but they weren't impressed with the state of the wiring. Were quite shocked when i told em it was an improvement. Looks like i dodged a bullet at someone else's expense.
