Sam, i have a set of coilovers that will suit the rex and are firm enough to slide with. They have only done about 4000km since new. I took them off the car as it was too uncomfortable to drive on the street. If your interested, PM me.

hey brad i might be interested ill let u know,

the wrx isnt registered coz it has been imported as a race/rally car only, they can be registered as rally veichles tho,

i dont think the gearboxes will last to long but they shouldnt be that expencive as jap wholesalers have heaps of bits and bobs,

i have a few vids of me slydn it through the bush in awd and will try and upload them to youtube soon :laugh:

nice to see something different :)

what are you going to do about the gearbox?

slamming gears, clutch kicks.. the wrx gearbox won't like that at all.

dogbox ftw!

Should be alright for a while tho, I'd assume that running rwd would be less strenuous on the box :P

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
