    Getting a little bit excited about the car again. Significant decision made about a future direction. A couple of weeks and results will be in

    Gtx3576R.

    Still loving my little GTX.
  4. Daughter bent our year old Impreza whilst on a driving lesson and whilst washing it today - getting ready to go into the panel shop this week for repairs (after a six week wait) I find wifey ran over a grate or something on the M1 which flicked up dinting the sill and door. Fkn grrr!!!!

    Well, the market is rooted so unless I give it away I'm better off persevering and getting the car to where I want it to be.
  7. I know you're limited with the rims Gunna, but I did the OEM brake upgrade with braided lines slotted rotors etc first and it was a fail on track. If I was you, I'd just run some QFM A1RM pads and decent fluid (which you'll need to bleed after the track day) and, run some good old fashioned brake ducts on the fronts. Will save you poo loads and give similar performance. The harsh realty is, two piston calipers just won't pull up 1800 kegs of barge without cooking their guts on a track day. My 4 piston Brembos with T3's and PBR upgrade rears JUST gets it done. By just I mean fluid is cooked, pedal turns to mush and I need to bleed the brakes after every track day. I'm actually looking at incorporating some ducting on mine also.
  8. Who says warranty means nothing Gunna? There are plenty of reputable companies that will stand by their products - performance or otherwise. I think the BTR option is a smart one for what you're doing. You probably could have gone down an easier path with the engine but hope you'll get there in the end. Personally, I would have bought a cheap donor and got it built or use your existing engine and done the same but that's my opinion.
  9. I'm a bit behind Gunna. So staying with the BTR but making it better?
  10. ^^^ yep. Loyalty only goes so far. If they can't get it right - move on. Worse thing is the expense of a start from scratch retune but...sometimes it's just unavoidable.
  11. This sh*t fkn weather in SEQ. Easter traditionally has been poo for years but rain since about November last year - OMG!!!
  12. You'd like to think it's becoming more of a minority but...there are still generational dole bludgers. These are the ones that really need to be weeded out in my opinion. Children that have never known their parents to work, so they do the same. Clean that sh*t up, then you can deny me a pension.
  13. Apparently, the expectation now is that if you work all your life and pay taxes you'll need to borrow against the equity of you assets - including your house, to get a pension. I'm fine with that provided low life dole bludgers get say two years benefits which includes demonstrating they've undergone training and/or worked for the dole then after that - cut off! Otherwise what? A generation of losers can live at Byron or Nimbin off the taxpayer for life, but working class that paid taxes and made sacrifices to pay off their house get no pension? Fark that!
  14. With 220,000km on it then jamb boost in probably not going to end well. You might get lucky with a service but I'd say it's cactus. Can get them rebuilt now for around 4k.
  15. The courage that Jobe Watson displayed in particular was astonishing. The AFL footy show tonight should be awesome viewing. On late in QLD so I'm recording it. Sam Newman will Tee off against ASADA I suspect.
  16. Couldn't have said it better myself Kimberley Scott. Go Bombers and ASADA can bend over and take a double fister dry. Heard that moron CEO today having a lollie out like a kid. You had nothing you useless khunts - never did. Crawl under your rock and think yourself lucky if Abbott doesn't step in and close your fkn doors!!
  17. I'd be giving RDP an opportunity to do a touch-up tune. Failing that then yes, go somewhere else reputable.
