Bit off topic but here goes: What I dont get is why bother abbreviating txt messaging when most modern mobile phones have T3 word prompting, and is easier and quicker to type the correct spelling than an abbreviation (unless programmed) and is easier to read and interpret at a glance than hieroglyph...

Hate to spoil the fun and be a myth buster, but I think its just a radio tower mast (see line shadow), and supported by 3x guy wires. Maybe fenced around to stop stock getting in close, hence the change of ground colour.

I noticed a difference between my '03 and the loan '07 from the dealer while mine was being serviced. The '07 fly-by-wire and extra few kw was noticeable, it was a bit punchier off the mark and auto matched quite well. The auto does get a memory and can be reset if behaving not as you expect, a good...

Merc Freeside - er Forester?

Gee even Mercedes are having a go at getting in at leveling at the Forester with this Freeside, specs are pretty smart as you would expect. Maybe Muddy might even be interested?

What ya think?

I put a set of Plus 50 in my Forester and recommend them. Give a brighter and seem slightly more projected beam. An easy upgrade.;)

Great news that its up and running.
The whistle is an indication that its running lean.
I went the Malpassi way myself, but it only compensated for a stock set up, not modified. I agree with the suggested options, but maybe a Megasquirt II ECU may suit you as well.

Yep I go with another cross leads jump starting, cost me an alternator and ECU eventually. Overfilled an oil change (Nissan) before going off bike racing, smoke blowing for 10kms from over oiling valve guides, had to stop on the side of the road and let a bit out from the sump. My missus overfilled ...

To get the full experience of a Hiclone, you would probably be better off with using it in a bong, cos the guy who invented these probably got the idea this way to flog crapp.

I changed my park lights with pre-focused LED's, ones with a magnifier in front and have a bulb like appearance, not flat like most LED replacements. I wanted a bright daylight type light visable in the day, seems ok and appear blue at night - a bit ricer really! Changed the H4 headlight globes to 5...

On the roads I have seen a few now, they just dont stand out and hit you with "I am a Subaru" look, they just tend to blend with the rest of the homogenized crapolas around with the current contemporary look. Now take note that the nearest competitor Mitsubishi with the latest release Lancer X looks...
