Thanks for the advice guys, doesnt get any better and clearer than that BobbyJimmy.

Still undecided if I should go something new like Sparco. The WRX ones look very wide ?

I was wondering if anyone has fitted WRX seats in an 01 Outback. Would they fit the existing rails, I guess the rails would be different due to floor pan. I'm looking for a bit more latteral support but I need the quick lever recline as I throw a wheelchair in and out too many times in a day to use ...

Its not mounted but I have had one of these for about 6 years. http://www.autosupplyworld.com/~builderd/images/CampbellHausfeld/CC2300.jpg Exactly the same but different brand. I can run a 100w spottie for about 30-45 minutes. I also used it to pump 10 sets of 100psi wheelchair tyres once a week for...

It help when you get 100% throttle. The combination of my hand-controls and the slack cable at the throttle body was the issue. Its one of those things that should be easy to diagnose but when your 3.5' high and working on your own its difficult. Not as quick as the Lib but I do like it now :D Thank...

How often do you need over 5000 revs? I've always thought auto Subarus were too eager to change down. Maybe I'm just a nanna. Anyhow, is it throwing any codes? 2003 Lib factory service manual suggests there may be a TPS fault if the shift points are wrong. It does not, however, say what the shift p...

Latest results but no fix. The trottle is getting depressed all the way, I hear a click just before its mashed to floor. (hav'nt been able to check throttle body to see if linkages are at max) Results in A/T with standing start full throttle shifted to 2nd at 4300rpm shifted to 3rd at 4800rpm Cruisi...

I just went for a drive and recorded what happens I found that if you dont 'mash the pedal' and hold it all the way to the floor, it changes at about 5000rpm If i need to get up to 100km/h in a hurry, i 'mash it' so first gear changes at 6000rpm, but as i near 90km/h i back off the pedal a little t...

Yeah mine does in power mode, but you have to push your foot right down quickly. You can hear a switch click when you push the accy pedal right down. What fuel are you using? If you are using 91 unleaded, try some 95 or 98. If the engine is pinging/knocking in higher rev ranges, this could make the...

There is a switch to the right of the shift lever, it has POWER A/T HOLD written on it. Push the power side, it will make it shift at higher rpm and will make it kick back easier. I usually drive with mine in Power mode Hold mode is designed to make starts in slippery conditions like mud and snow. ...

I just got an 01 Outback with 107k on it. The problem is it wont rev over over 5000rpm before it grabs another. Kickback to first rarely happens unless your doing around 30. Its a replacement on a 99 liberty 2.5 I just wrecked, everything torque wise feels similar but the liberty snapped back to fir...

Hey guys Mal from Atherton QLD. Needed some info on why my 01 Outback is a slow dog compared to my Liberty I just retired/crashed. thought the knowledge would be here.

WOW, that looks like a rush.
Love a pumping v8 but thats wild.

put simply. Doubt it. do you bottom out anywhere? is it really necessary? maybe just some higher profile tyres on your stock rims will help out. alex The undercarriage is hammered. I have bashed the transpan and sheared heads of the bolts. A wiser man would upgrade the suspension. I'm a Quad in a w...

Hi people, my RX wagon seems fairly low, it has 15" 205/50 on it they are on the way out after 20k.

Im not looking for an off roader but i do hit some rough dirt tracks. Would rims and tyres of a outback or forrester fit without rubbing?
