Howde all!

Been a liberty owner for a couple of years now, thought it was a safer option that might keep me out of the aftermarket money-pit... unfortunately not, the itch is back so here we go!

Name: Jadyn
Ride: MY07 Liberty GT spec-b sedan
Location: Perth WA
Mod: absolutely zip at the moment, as standard as standard is
Plans: nothing mad yet, dyno tune and a new exhaust seems like a good start - see where we go from there, some minor cosmetic stuff is on the cards short-term. haven't got a lot of experience with Subaru's so some forum trawling and a few questions should hopefully point me the right way :)
Occupation: Project Development / Tech Services for a mining company
Year of birth: '87
Interest: Work-wise I'm completing a diploma in project management, plenty of opportunity to move forward there. Personally I've always loved messing with cars but had a quiet spell for the past couple of years, love snowboarding (ironic - coming from australia's driest capital) and travel.
Previous Rides:

'05 Liberty 2.5 sedan
bog standard.. wasn't fast enough hence the GT :wink:

'93 Nissan Silvia
SR20DET notchtop conversion
6spd box
some minor susp/exhaust/chip/fmic mods - just the usual stuff

'89 Nissan 300ZX 2+2
NA to TT conv.
well over 35k spend on the engine/drivetrain and interior - by far the most fun and most expensive-to-keep car i've ever had haha :p i do miss it though

90's VP commodore
minor stuff - this was my bus while the ZX was in and out (mostly in) of the shop

VK Calais
an old bomb, had a transplant and some minor exhaust work

bombed Magna
first-car.. need more be said!



anywho, looks like there's a wealth of info around here from my browse so far. i do have a quick question though, can anyone recommend a good Subaru mechanic in Perth? was using RMS for a while then went to STechnic when RMS moved south, not particularly happy there though to be honest and have been looking at JWS.. i'm going to be needing someone with a 4wd dyno and some liberty/wrx experiance pretty soon though!

muchos appreciated fellas, good to be here :D

Oh and answering your question regarding a mechanic... Tony Flood Mechanical in Welshpool. http://www.floodmotorsport.com.au

My friends go to this place for their servicing. Maybe give him a go?
