Its a hole lotta fun. As some people will attest to at last nights cruise

HOLY SHIT DAN.

You have my attention. Hats off to you, you now own the most exciting Subaru in Australia. I wish I was in Syd to experience it.

Thanks Owen.

It seriously is a feck load of fun. There may or may not be some video evidence.

Coming out of the carpark last night I was looking at you through my rear view and was thinking fuck he must have gotten close to jack.

How much power and what rear diff? And who will do the set up for your suspension to compensate loss of front wheel drive?

Its yet to have an "official dyno". Hopefully this week.!! Been tuning with Matt Kiddo via logs.

The diff is standard and so far im impressed. The LSD action of the r180 is great around corners and in the dry its even better. In a straight line it does get a bit of axle tramp on the passenger side ( thats what it feels like ) in the wet tho. Which i hate.

I NEED to get a wheel alignment and fit my camber correction bushes in the rear to pull out some of the neg camber.!

It lights up in a straight line in 2nd , pretty much all the way thru in damp or wet road.

Dry it lights 1st and will sometimes stutter along in 2nd dependant of road grip in a straight line.

Add corners or steering input to the mix and it will go side to side of the rd in 2nd in the dry.!

See FUN!!!

A few clutch dumps later......lol

Anyhow, just watched a video of you doing a little slide. I think you should raise the back slightly and soften the damper settings on the rear. The slide will be more progressive and not as snappy. From memory your spring rates are heavier on the back than the front. It needs to be the other way around now.

[Boostaddict]

Softer you say.

I would have thought that harder damper rates would be better with controlling the axle tramp.

Dan what's the purpose of going rwd?

Nice fish but on a public road
