My mates Subaru Liberty RS (White) was stolen yesterday from his house.

Sometime after 1am this morning from Gilmore.

White RS Series 2, Silver 2002 17" WRX wheels, RS liberty club sticker in back window, twin tip exhaust, red childs car seat in the centre rear seat.

Rediculously loud tappets.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Also just remembered that there is no number plate on the front of the car

Can be contacted on 0410158755

Its really crap, Mark has had this car stolen 3 times now.. The first time it made the newspapers as the ACT Govt tried to use the speed cameras as an excuse for finding stolen cars as it was snapped on parkes way doing 204km/h..

Interesting about that R33 though, I have seen a White R33 with a black bonnet driving around Canberra, so hopefully it wasn't abandoned...

Hehe, hi Theo... You would have thought Mark would have learnt by now since its the third time, but no it didn't have an alarm (siren etc).

It was immobilised though. He is still unsure how it was taken as the exhaust is @ 102db so at 1am in the morning, you would certainly here it start up. He is thinking that it was pushed down the street and either somehow started or tow truck.

      Should I use rust converter on this?

      The easiest option might be to just spray a bunch of fish oil in there.  At least that way you can feel like you've done something while you continue to ignore it

      I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.

      Plus, you'll get great experience in bedding in pads!

      I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.

      @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
