As far as I can tell, mine is stock as a rock and I don't get any of that sort of shenanigan out of it. In fact, if anything, the way it has been exiting some roundabouts the last week has had me thinking it's a good thing I got the Lib and not one of the RX-8's I had been looking at :D

that car and image website has some pretty good threads on people doing Vtunes. looks like a vtune will be beneficial but after i get my service done.

Thanks for all the feedback.

It's a good thing. In first with a boot full of throttle all you get is understeer across the road. Embarrassing if you hit a gutter or worse. It is a Subaru after all and understeer is the order of the day.

This is a very good point Adrian2627 but I would rather have full control and make that call myself rather than be babied through corners. Incidentally, my car has no VDC and as far as I'm concerned doesn't need it. Understeer is there, you just need to become it's friend. i owned a euro accord which has one of the best chassis in the business but you rekon the lib understeers! Holy crap!

Reviving this thread because I have found that there are no definitions in Romraider for me to tune my 05 3.0RB 6MT.

Does anyone know if Vin at Docklands can tune all 3.0lt Liberty's or only a selected few.

I looked on the Docklands website but found nothing in relation to V Tune.
