everyone on THIS forum should know that aye ?

his comparing something new with his own ride?

if you get in someone elses ride, go for a blat, its kinda natural you flick up your own stick and take measure eh ?

we have an sti lib in our house, its mums, great car, but its boaring as bat shit to drive, absolutly no driver involvement, and you have to fang the ass out of it just to have fun, has lots of grip and is very consistant, but much prefer driving my r32 it feels alive, stis get the mcintosh soundsystem, quite nice!

hmmm the 06 is one ugly mofo, wonder if the 06 still has a piss weak gb,

the 2.5L would be helpful for hte daily, mod the thing a little and replace the nose with a bit of kit an get a park bench rally wing, fun.

anyone know if the 06 sti has forged internals or if it went the way of the yank 2.5 and is cast.

aparently the 02-05 sti's were all forged internals so a exhuast mod and a cooler and your pumping max octance boost..... food for thought

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
