Clutch has started slipping
To be honest I could have done it in a day in my garden on my back using jack and axle stands.I had a weeks holiday so I dragged it out and did a little each day.I went with a paddle clutch a 6 puk and after say 600 miles of bedding in it runs just the same as a normal clutch only I can launch it with no worries

The Forester Turbo
Hi Adam Ive no idea mate.Im waiting for co-ord sport to get back to me he is the UK Cusco dealer.I don't have the perched type coil over the whole body of the shock is threaded and im not after a complete soft suspension just some thing a little easier that's all.I can see my self being offered a longer spring to be honest with less poundage on the spring.I will remove these tomorrow and get the full details of its set up
-
The Forester Turbo
The other thing is when I fitted these coilovers from the Impreza they was already set low so when I fitted these to my Forester it was even lower so when ive put some height on the coil overs the spring is getting smaller but stiffer making it a harsher ride
-
The Forester Turbo
When I had the new forester rear struts on it sat ok but not quiet low how I wanted it.I do have Subaru Wrx wagon shocks which I believe to be a little shorter than the forester so I might try these with the forester springs to see what I get.

The Forester Turbo
I no I will be happy when I get the new springs.It was that stiff when the kids got in the car and the missus shopping that Fozi suspension never moved lol

The Forester Turbo
My Coilovers are gonna have to come off tomorrow because the ride is just to harsh.Gonna stick standard suspension back on till I find a soloution.Ive got in contact with a UK Cusco dealer call co-ord sport and the bloke who works there has asked me for a serial number off the Coilovers to work out what model I have to find some softer Coilover springs.I just got the Forester to sit how I wanted it to as well lol.Oh well new springs soon and they will be back on again.

safe boost
Im on std boost ive never touched it and I wont.I have used a manual boost controller before on the lowest setting and I could control it as well so it never spiked.How ever its going to be mapped in Janaury hopefully for some nice results

My Subaru classic
I removed my resonator box from my airbox and now you can hear the air being sucked in and it also moves quicker now as well.Ive got 18s on my forester and it goes well.I think coil overs are a good mod it handles like a train on rails

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Went work this morning till dinner time.Had to drive an artic down a country lane that had not been gritted lol it was like an ice rink.Got back home and turned my coilovers up 16mm all round.Apparently we are on amber alert for more snow.
