lost one of my ducts :/ this thread is relevant to my interests! source for ducts? mind you i am missing a bit of bumper/lip so might not even be of use :/

the sticker on the back?

sh*t no I'm just a Legacy driver, them Impreza pilots wont listen to me : they still have some fan-boys, but like I say "they" are already going elsewhere Ie STM or even Yeti/Keith Stewart

"another" tune by shred eh, yea sorry not a good name in Subaru circles either as mentioned many factors BUT mate had a tune, did not make it back to Palmy...

is.. Murch on here? bit of a monster there in a 5-series (I think)

Someone Built 'The Homer' From The Simpsons And Is Taking It Racing

the fun part is once you do stuff like this you end up clicking "show post" just to see the babbling so the next post makes sense (someone else's reply or to keep things in context)

this! My Subaru is OEM with both fitted the Escort I had recently would default to the rear fog "on" in certain situations (I never figured out what) sometimes it would come on with Headlights sometimes not, and yes a wee orange light came on with it, bloody handy as a reversing light

http://www.fuelly.com/driver/JoKerNZ proving slightly less economical after 1st tank (the GTB was running on 3 hence worst overall score) driving style may alter after I get used to it yes the Avenger needs a tuneup!

you can get the track for $500 to do [almost] anything you want for a day http://www.trademe.co.nz/travel-events-act...n-601833485.htm and yea any track days I have run limit street cars to 10 min sessions/1 warm up lap, 3 hot, and 1 cool down is usually enough to get neat brake fade dot 5 fluid min is recommended in Subaru land with good pads, Taupo is fun!

bahahaha well it is also my first V8, 3" from somewhere/scrapes on speedbumps, doesn't sound too bad at all, fun part is making it backfire when its cold and not chopping down gears (just waiting for day it spits out some steel)

"top spec" under the "motorsport" version? then the "M-Specs" then "M"s come next? is that how it works? or does "se" slot further up the chain sweet, yea mate is at Jeff Grays in Palmy and was asking about oil leaks, and how many it has : cant be worse than the Subaru (also has a continuous-anti-chassis-rust feature / tappet leaks) the OEM rims are in the back of his full wood shed still, might be a summer/Xmas present fuel pump went wonky last year and the replacement unit has a slightly shorter pickup so I have learnt quick if I see the fuel light I'm buggered almost instantly LOL mind you I spy the recommendation that its not ideal to go under 30mi left on the gauge, will stick to that assume BP 98 is the best for this beast? (Only 10-5kw, from wiki, more than the Subaru so it's not much more than I am used to)

what does the "ia" and "se" stand for on the rego? next time I'm down kapiti (hoping weekend 23rd at this stage) could call in share stories any history with it? Darryl added the tints and Springs as far as I know, still figuring out hte features, not bad for a nearly 20 year old car

ahh yea my 16 year old Escort : I banged her on a drum after going over that "jump" twice (is our local car club unofficial track near Pahiatua) the 540 will become the new tow vehicle : any tips? its Auto and as mentioned I dont wanna cook it/ stick to A4? also after a Front Bumper (was like that when i got it) and a left front fog :/

Bingo : AWESOME

another good reason to not go on have had my fill for the next few years and yea the cooling system seems to be a bit of a weak point from what I have read the White caged car has a bit of history and the donar gearbox for red is coming out of a 2-door shell, rare crap is fun

yea all your fault : was the pics from recent meet in the E34 off topic thread specifically, knew there had to be a Kiwi forum somewhere hawkes bay section here a bit dull, slightly closer to Palmy, ClubSub taking over a Playday @ Manfield in Sept with a guest Dyno, tempted to throw the V8 on and see what actual figures are, not sure if I'll track it, managed to kill the Red car's auto doing that, the Leggy has been around numerous times and the White car is fun on slicks

Having spent 10 years on a Subaru (almost to the day) JDM twin turbo had opportunity to trade my Runabout Escort for this '94 V8 My other ride's are Hillman Avenger's : a '76 Auto GLS and a '73 Caged rally car with a worked 1600 putting 90 hp down at the rear My 1st ever car ended up like this and I can do this with the white one on the track/gravel so yea, guess you could say I have finally seen the light and upgraded well and proper! Just done service and the usual "oil light" thing came up which led me here, still trying to figure that part out/get procedure right Learning things about my E34 everyday and this looks like a nice place to hang out Cheers ~ Jared ps: my other "main" forums would be ClubSUB and Oldschool, am sure a few of you are on either and might recognise a few of my 'other' rides (found this place thru bimmerfest : not liking the international flavour over there too much)
