Re: Auckland get together?
FYI - just rang
"TREVOR" - he said he will turn up. "NUTSHL" - he is in Wellington this week so cannot make it, but would love to see photos, he will be keen for another weekend at some stage over the summer. Any one want to ring "FLOATINGKIWI" in Taupo - his name is Matt Burton (07 377 3465) - you never know he may be heading north for the weekend? |

Re: Auckland get together?
I have full record of everything done on mine since new...
the things that stand out the most are - 100,000km service costing me NZ$800 then they forgot to change water pump (which siezed 5,000km later - they replace that for NZ$120 - and gave me another new belt / tensioner / labour all free) - I had the GPS covering over the temperature gauge, hence did not notice anything wrong till I turned engine off & heard bubbling sound from engine / smelt the rubber from belt being dragged over the water pump - played the garden water hose on engine for 30 minutes to aid with cooling - no damage done (thank goodness). Rear wheel bearings $250.00 (fitted) Front discs & rotors replaced 2 months ago - NZ$1700.00 + all fluids changed. (going to get drilled/slotted rotors & ceramic pads from Dayle at Motorsport Warehouse) - a lot cheaper, just remember that JDM has vented rears!!. http://svx-motorsport-accessories.stores.yahoo.net/ AACV valve changed (got old one back - to reuse at a later date). http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/show...urteess&page=2 (see post number 27) Due to get new rubber on all 4 corners in the next month or so (Currently running Ducaro F1 & got 75,000km from them). Get ALL my work done by Giltraps at Wairau Road over the past 12 years. Last edited by SURTEESS; 10-28-2008 at 11:53 AM. |
