Brett,

They won't let you join Garage SPANK, it's an exlusive club. Ask Skyzerr if you can join the Red Devils, you can be there 2nd member:bahaha:

See'ya:burnout:

Is that right... Well I am sure if they let you in they would let anyone in... including the Hobo down on the street corner :D

Hehe .... Nah Troy has got some silly rule that you need to have a BURGANDY skyline to be part of the RED devils :D

my ex was 28 plus he was diabetic so often woke up to him convulsing on the bed next to me. 16 i was going out with a 22yr old. So yeah ive grew up real quick - in fact probably did htings around the wrong way :D

Yeah I know about them... but that does NOT mean I ever tried to join.... when I first joined up it was a big thing going around with each colour had their own "gang" :D

It was actually quite amusing as there were full discussion on what colours were better and why :D

Dan,

With the VF22 in then I'd be surprised if the gearbox last's too long. gtrken is currently working on building subaru's and most often when people increase the power the gearbox dies. He said that most people use the STi gearsets.

The Autronic for the WRX is very good, plus as it is a board replacement, looks like the original, so you can't be hassled by cops for it.

See'ya:burnout:

    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
    • I would like more noise related info for my truly uneducated guess  Does it do it at idle or when revving, clutch engaged, and disengaged? Does it only do it when the car is moving? I've heard "similar" noises from a clutch pack that left the chat room, and CV joints that have chewed themselves out But as Matt said, how's the yokes, tailshaft and centre bearing going after their last little issue Fingers crossed it is something simple  Weird noises make me cringe 
    • One other question, is there a chance that changing the idle speed can lead you down a rabbit hole and is the reason the tuner didn't touch it? Reason I ask is because if that's the reason the tuner avoided it then I probably shouldn't be touching it lol.
    • Pfft. As if I'd ever point a high pressure washer at my car.
    • The nature of my commute has changed. Way back then it was traffic lights all the way, for ~28km. It sucked. When they finally stitched the expressway together I could do a good 15+km of it at a steady 80-100 with no stopping. That alone has gotten me down to flat 10s. Prior to that it was mid-high 10s. I can't remember the delta that I saw when I got the idle down. It was only ~150 rpm, because the idle speed was never terrible, but for the delta in consumption to be noticeable it would have had to have been at least 0.2-0.3 L/100km - which is not to be sneezed at when it comes for absolute free. It's only about 50L per year, but that's ~$100. A few extra pizzas is always welcome. Note that I have a record of every tank of fuel that has ever gone through my car except for a handful put in by someone else, like my mechanic. I can show you the difference between stock RB20 and tuned RB20, stock RB5Neo and tuned, winter and summer fuel blends, winter and summer fuel blends when the ambient temperature is not appropriate for the blend, working O2 sensor, blown O2 sensor, boosting f**k out of it and frightened to boost it because it is pinging, and so on. OK, I probably can't do all that now with 100% clarity - but at the time when any of those things were in event, you could see it in the records. There's 25+ years of simple tank after tank records, so you have to look for landmarks to work out approximately how old any single record is. What's really important is the meta data and that lives in my head.
