MY09 Liberty 3.0RB 6Spd Manual!

Postby DevilDRake » Fri May 15, 2015 5:29 pm

Hi guys,

This is my first ever Subaru and i've been nothing but happy with it so far. I did pretty well, only having 75,000ks on the clock.
My last car was a 2013 VE SV6-Z ute but it got written off due to a truck pulling out in front of me.. I tried running around in a cheap commodore after the accident but after a couple of months I gave in and had to get something better

This is my old car:

Welcome!

I think this is SIMBATSs old car.

The paint on your old car was a really nice colour!

So I got the wheels on today, they pretty much look identical to the ones I already had except in a satin black not gold.

18 X 8 wheels, +43

Thanks guys.

Lower springs and possible raptor headers are next on the cards for it.

Are springs nice and easy to do on these? What kg rate is best?
The rear already seems like a good height but the front is in the air

Yes, but it needs the flex fuel tune(E85 and 98 on the same tune)

To be honest I've never thought of using E85 - I don't think anywhere around me even has it lol.

I wouldn't mind a retune when I get headers & exhaust though. Mind PMing me the details of how it works?

Anyone know where you can calibrate a speedo? At 100kph I'm doing 92kph on the correct rim and tyre :/
