Selling My Liberty as i don't really want to keep paying my loan, and i use the train to get to work now. I have had it for nearly 12 months, in that time It had new Front CV's, knock sensor, clutch and gearbox. Box had 80k on it, have receipts. cars done 215,xxx and is very clean in and out. better...

My single range 5MT would weight about 50-60kgs at a guestimate. Its a fair bit to pick it up myself! Can check when i get home.

holly crap! you could have brought a whole new brumby for that!

Its called an engineering certificate lol. Yeah this is what i was thinking when i read the first post. Is'nt this the same as insurance not paying out if they find undisclosed and un engineered mods on a vehicle? Is'nt the point of the engineers cert that they make sure its all legit and safe, and...

Swaps?? where do i sign???

Shouldnt be hard, it would help if you had the car up on stands or ramps. Take off the plastic splash gaurd under the engine (6 bolts under the car and 1 in each front guard) and you've got easy access to the 3 nuts on each head. Then undo the end of the header and bingo. They are heavy so having so...

Well done Bennie. some mechanics must make a killing telling people they need more than they should for a roady, especially if they're selling the car as they will do whatever to have it happen the quickest!

Cheers guys. i think i will hang onto it and keep a look out for a box with a few blown gears. Its probably not worth much as it is. I never thought of that Gannon! makes sense My box didn't have that flat inspection plate on top of the rear section like in Jakes thread. Is this to do with the dual ...

So recently my Center Diff started to bind up pretty bad and in order to not have the car off the road too long i decided to just drop a newer(lower Km) gearbox straight in. So thanks to my Gf's dad buying a 4 post hoist, this job was pretty easy :mrgreen: So i now have a box stairing at me with nea...

I've got a MY99 BE Liberty with the SOHC ej25 and its a great car. A bit more room than an impreza, and it can tow anything upto a camper trailer fully loaded. If your gonna stick to NA its a great choice. Runs like its on rails

Turbo on the fa20? With a compression ratio of 12.x this wouldnt happen without engine work. Maybe an ej swap. I know the huge horspower d1 car they built for next years season didnt have the fa in it

'Motor' magazine out at the moment features an sti BRZ, turbo. not having read motor but i remember reading somewhere about the sti brz having no turbo or even engine improvements, but lower weight, carbon fiber bonnet etc, and sti suspension. Ii think with the brz that is exactly what it needs, no...

This is similar to what happened with my l but luckily the thread was ok and it was just a case of replacing the bolt. Great buy bennie! Love that its a touring wagon!

yeah my L came with a hydrogen set up when i bought it. the guy claimed 4L/100ks! he said it wasn't working well though. i just ripped it out :P

maybe run a couple of tanks through if you can afford it? its weird if it doesnt make a difference.

I too use 98 in my AUDM ej25, its still seems to make a difference over 91 in fuel economy and power(slight). i normally use shell it seems to be alot better than caltex/mobil. never used BP as the one near me always has higher prices than the shell across the road. couldnt afford to run 98 in my ev...

cosworth and tomei and a couple other places make them.
I think they are mainly for turbo 22's though.

maybe a stroked 22 with a raptor supercharger

it must be cool because its jdm yo!

has the "special option" RX turbo wooden steering wheel too, apparently they are rarer than hens teeth.

dunno if true or not but its different!:lol:

Theres a Touring Wagon in Vic on ebay here http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Subaru-L-Series-Turbo-Touring-Wagon-EA82T-/290679028579?pt=AU_Cars&hash=item43add1fb63 he says its got a jap half cut of I'm guessing an rx turbo in it. Most interesting bit is the steering wheel! http://i159.photobucket.com/album...
