Car is making a knocking/thumping sound from the rear left corner, I suspect I have blown a strut.

Just as well, blew 3 weeks pay on crap when I could have bought a set of BCs :(

f**k you Mohsen. You douchebag

You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

Ahh... The lifestyle of slammed cars.

I have one issue, loud thumping, so loud I can feel from front left, only noticeable at one place nearby but inspected the coilovers, nothing out of ordinary.

Now to avoid this stretch of road, but it's my main route home from work.

Momo, what coilovers you got? Apexi yeah?

If so, there's a mob in queensland can rebuild them at $265 per corner and no one in Melbourne will do it. Just easier to buy new BC's

Italians are known for producing low quality products..however, the car has soul and passion

You might not be able to throw it around like a Jap car but if you treat it well, it will last you long time. Good for inner city driving

Can't beat the sound of a V twin, am seriously tempted on an Aprilia Shiver. Wait for the "no exhaust" part...

My father has the S edition Forester with all the STi gear on it, awesome all rounder car, but pricey for what it is IMO, at 60k. Same engine as the rex and goes almost as hard!

Previously owned a Alfa 2000 model, no dramas what so ever. Like i said, it's perfect for inner city driving.

You, like the bogan that you are, would be very fitting in your Skyline in metro Melbourne.

Good luck with your of phaggotry goals in 2012

      Rb25det Belts Change

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Everything I found online said never use it because it'll dramatically reduce belt lifespan.  No, but I have seen excessive v-belt tension cause the audible bearing noise from excessive radial load in things like alternators. So don't overdo it. Ideally you set it to manufacturer spec using a proper belt tension guage. I tried the "clicker" type gauges but those cheap things are trash. They read way too low even when you're careful.

      This is kind of where I've ended up for the most part. It's easier for me, easier for shops that don't have to deal with my weird criteria/picky standards, etc.

      Will do. Suprised if it's not the starter motor considering it's 30 years old. Will get a volt meter though. Battery is close to new.   Cheers for your help, always appreciated.

      This almost never happens these days. No. Clean your battery terminals and make sure they are tight. Use sandpaper on a dowel if you have to, to get oxidation off the inside of the terminals, particularly on the -ve. Check the earth cable from battery post to chassis ground and engine ground. Make sure the contact surfaces are clean - including the threads on the bolts that anchor them - because that's where a lot of the contact occurs. Wire wheel on a drill is a good thing for this. Make sure the crimps on those cables are all sound. Assuming none of that causes an improvement: Check the battery voltage after it has been resting for a while. If it's at the lower end of the range, put it on charge for a while, then see if it will crank better.

      I just checked my belt, it wasn't super loose but I could bend it past 90 degrees a small amount so I tightened it up and for the first time ever my car didn't crank first time, had to crank it again lol. Don't know if that was because I tightened the belt or if it's my starter motor going out (been having slow starts for some time). Coulda also been when I was recording I didn't crank the key properly and it didn't save the recording lol.   Is that a thing if you overtighten a belt it struggles to start?
