My friend just had someone run into the back of her car and needs some Subaru parts. Anyone know any Subaru wreckers? I need some names ASAP!

It's a 2004 Impreza RS.

I just read that wikipedia entry...

an AWD IS250 with a 2JZGTE swap would be kinda cool.... hell even just straight RWD with the swap would be cool. Not feelin the regular versions... you could buy a V36 for half the price and get pretty much the exact same car.

usa gets awd is350 which is turbo (i think)? something special about it other than AWD

don't think so. not many turbo cars in the US pass their smog test. but they make a 3.5l and 2.5l in AWD in japan.

I'm guessing it'll be like the V35 GT-8, which is fuckin awesome for the first 5 mins of owning one, then you start feeling hardgay cos you have a CVT and a heavy car... so you get up to 100k/h and flick down through all 8 virtual gears to pleasure yourself by pretending you're a shit hot F1 race driver coming into a hairpin, but then cry yourself to sleep, cos that's all your car does well.

nga please. no spacers. i was thinkin of those fender flares though.

need to find a set. saves me having to roll my fenders out.

dunno if that fender flared look will suit the R32 bodykit I'm putting on either.

I'm 99% convinced to go clean and shave the rear etc with an R32 bumper and a Ford FG falcon skidplate mod.

Actually make that 100% convinced cos I already paid for an R32 bodykit.

Hmm sent a letter to EPA asking for warning/extension as I was overseas for business for a month... It's been 4 weeks since letter sent and haven't heard anything. Not sure if I can drive the car or not :P useless hippies. Will call them I guess

Sooo...

Got flashed by a speed camera for the first time in around 7 years, so is it easy to get a "official warning"? I was around 15km/h over the limit. I swear they have changed the speed limit on Fitzroy St from 60 to 40 recently.

Piss easy. Admit fault, say you weren't aware of changed speed but is not an excuse as I should be aware of speed limit at all times. You wish to appeal for a formal warning as it is your first offense in over 7 years and wasn't intentional.

Sign, send and wait for response. Done

    • Do you plan on using 98 or e85?
    • This should be pretty easy. 200rwkW is just about the max power out of an RB25 stock turbo. So, 12ish psi on a 2.5L. That boost limited mainly by the prospect of seeing the turbine in the cat after the smoke show. A steel wheeled equivalent would likely happily do ~220rwkW at something like 17 psi, where it would probably be bumping into the usual limits of such a sized turbo. These things have like a .48 rear. You will not need the 0.86 rear. The 0.64 will be fine. In fact, if you were looking at various mid-200rwkW options for RBs, most of them would be in a 0.64 rear. So, I think you will definitely want to be no bigger than that for a same sized but probably even more efficient (at making power) modern engine.
    • Change the subframe bushes, transforms the car.
    • For something a little more serious, Davinci Resolve is about the best there is for free video editors. No expiration dates or watermarks, completely free.
    • Well, it's taken me until the last week of 2024 to actually do something on the Skyline but I consider it a good head start to 2025's efforts! I managed to justify (to myself anyway...) my purchase of the lift table. It made taking the rear subframe out a lot easier than it would have been without anyway! Everything is out and stripped down ready for a clean then powdercoating.  She's pretty grubby under there but pretty good condition for a 38 year old Japanese tin bucket. 12 years of zero street time have obviously helped that... I need to decide which of the factory suspension arms I will keep and replace so I only get what I'm keeping powdercoated.  Baby steps but it's a start!
