As for those hooks being placed where they are if you get snatched out of a nasty situation the guy doing it will more than likely end up with your roo bar embedded into the back of his vehicle, attach them to the chassis rails where they should be. Like Paul said, the cop has no idea so just be car...

Even a couple of tennis balls with a slot cut in them would do the trick, maybe some pink ones ;)

Welcome, looks like a really nice unit, the only concern is the two black things on the roo bar, probably your tow points but they look pretty lethal and probably highly illegal, they would be over here. If anyone walking past the front of your car rips a chunk of leg off you could be up for some bi...

Trust me, they are on a big block in a very out of the way street and could have been hidden further from the street, I think maybe trying to protect them but a long time ago, the drivers window is 1/4 way down on the side the weather comes from. Paul has the business name and address which I suppos...

Hmmm, I'd just say don't go back ............ but seriously have you tried 1st then reverse, it's a pretty common fix on the 5 speed WRX's boxes and they are all pretty much the same inside, but more than likely a selector fork is bent or it could be something as simple as a worn rubber bush under t...

Yeah I figured he would be the closest, or the twin engined Brumby (a little closer) they look like they have been sitting for years but under some cover and shaded by big trees, it's a Bed & Breakfast and they are sitting on the edge of the block, I haven't got your email addy, only skype but downl...

Yes they do.......personally I think it should be the other way around because it sounds better but back in the old days most cars had \ / positive camber. As a point of interest I came across 2 silver wagons identical to yours sitting under a tarp and camouflage sheet a week or so ago, unfortunatel...

Brumby at Pickles, great parts car

As above, looks like it was a nice unit that's been stripped but the tailgate, interior and most other bits look pretty good, probably go for a $100 or so.

Can't tell you if it will work in the G3 but I'm guessing you want to swap so you can put the single cam into the Brumby, not sure if you know it but the twin cam 2.5's are notorious for doing head gaskets around the 200,000k mark so if there isn't any evidence of them being done I would change them...

Oil pumps are pretty cheap and usually changed at 100,000 services along with timing belt and pulley kit, just get the injectors sonically cleaned, they are pretty easy to get out

Soz, didn't know there was a difference, probably why mine don't seem to fit really well, only wanted one to take the dual passenger seat out of my 07 Transit so I could replace it with a swiveling Forrester seat but they did the job.

I'm pretty sure they are both 100pcd with a 48ish offset so the only difference will be 10mm wider on each side and a fraction higher so stick your hand up between the strut and the tyre to make sure you have enough clearance. Personally I think these are way overpriced & I wouldn't pay any more tha...

I bought a set of male and female torx from eBay a couple of months ago, both sets were less than $30 and in oz, pretty sure they were both Kinchrome.

Can't help on the lifted side but I picked up a set of $200 2nd hand Bilstiens for my Gen 2 and threw King lows at them, absolutely fantastic struts without an issue in the last 6yrs.
