Did anyone know that there are Undercover cops driving a unmarked WRX around?!? I saw one this morning on the parkway, two cops dressed casual driving a dark blue WRX, sirens on the bumper flashed blue/red alternately ( I only saw a glimps) pulled over this other Rex. I know that there is a white WRX police car but didn't know that there is a unmarked one. Anyway just warning people....

Yepp, and there's a black unmarked 2001 model WRX going around too.

It has mega dark tinted windows. I saw him pull over a car that went through a red light at the Woden Hospital lights.

The WRX had the normal red and blue flashing lights in the back window.

You've really got to watch out these days, they're everywhere :D

Next time anyone sees one, write it down so we can get a little "list" going of the plates :)

eliteopps: good point about the tints! one rule for them and another for us hey! I got followed by a cop car but i didn't think it could be one cos one of the front headlights were blown. i was gonna tell him when he pulled me over, but i didn't want to push my luck hehe.. Is a blown headlight an offence? ;)

      Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
