Hi all,
Apologies if this has already been discussed, but couldn't find much info while searching.
Recently I noticed a burning oil smell towards the rear of my car, and during an inspection...
270KW + 530NM + light rear end + leaf springs = lots of fun and dirty pants moments :)
I also test drove a Liberty GT before deciding on the 6MPS. At the time of purchasing the 6MPS the Liberty GT was not actually being sold by Subaru as emission regulations killed off the 2.0L turbo...
I use mine mainly for long trips or when i know i'll be travelling on a narrow road where stone chips are more likely to occur. I don't particularly like the look of them, but for the protection they...
tidy looking CX-7 mate :)
Came across this on Street Unit's website. Diagrams show the stock 6MPS and 3MPS exhausts, detailing what parts of the exhaust are replaced with various modifications (aftermarket down pipe, test...
Thanks for the compliments everyone :) Have answered specific questions below
Have been keeping an eye out for fractures but nothing so far. I'm assuming dimpled rotors are purely for...
Nice calipers everyone. Thanks for sharing. Lets keep this thread going - there's got to be more sexy calipers out there :)
looks schmicko Shakes. Well done mate :)
Thanks for the kind words mpssylo :2thumb:
I like yours Mel - fits in well with stealth look of your car :)
The photos were taken before they got a little too warm :nono: Haven't...
This is not an in-depth tutorial on how to replace your rotors. It's more a basic overview with some pics and impressions of my DBA rotors after having them for a few months.
These Disc Brakes...
Painted your calipers? Show 'em off here :)
I'll get the ball rolling
Before (caliper has been cleaned prior to painting):

I've got the SU engine mount in my 6; have the same vibrating issues. The vibration is slight at idle with no AC, and quite noticable at idle with AC on. Also noticable when revs drop below idle - ie...
Here's a pic
You can't see them at all during the day but they do emit a nice white light in a dark carpark or at night. Looks cool at night when you unlock the car (when you have them wired to sync with interior...
As the title suggests, what convenience/cosmetic/other features do you think your 3MPS or 6MPS should have come out of the factory with? It could be something you found handy in a previous car that...
Im liking it alot, except for the front grille. It just looks weird, and doesnt' match the rest of the exterior at all. They put a similar fromt-end look on the updated Clio a couple of months back,...
Thanks everyone for the explanations; very much appreciated. So in summary: the addition of a CAI/SRI, with its reduced sound-deadening and greater air flow ability compared to the OEM airbox, makes...
My first ever mod to my car was the Mazdaspeed CAI, and I've always wondered why you could hear the BOV after this modification. In a stock car does the BPV even release any air? If so is the amount...
I don't go much on their reviewing skills on the TV show, however there is the odd exception where they do a great review. And some of their 'challenges' are very well done. But have you noticed the...
The new one looks more 'droopy' compared to the wide, muscular stance of the old model
Look forward to hearing this exhaust on the cruise :) How long did it take to fit?
might be worth considering a 'clear car bra' (eg OziCozi). Gives good protection and is barely noticable
hmmmm....cool headlighhts but not sure about the rest of the car. Still prefer the understated look of the old model. To my eye it is one of the most handsome and well proportioned cars around
