    Lowering Springs Eibach 35-40mm

    I'd imagine you'll have a lot of fun with speed bumps with the 35-40 kit + splitter yes In case you considered the pro kit (25mm ish), here's my ginger side profile when installed them with stock wheels. Speedbumps aren't great for me either, especially if the cars loaded up. Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk

    Eibach pro-kit lowering springs advice needed

    Just re use the stock bump stops, mine have been fine and to check fitment for wheels, this is a useful tool: https://www.ft86motorsports.com/wheelitfit/ Sent from my kukui using Tapatalk

    Complete exhaust questions

    Agree here - great noise from the super res but it's still a little loud for me once warmed up (decat manifold /stock 2nd cat) so I'll be going something quieter still (q300/h&s). All down to preference in the end Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk

    Subwoofer under seat

    Looking at options for adding a sub, and there are some 'slim' subwoofers which are under 70mm depth, anyone know if this will fit under drivers seat in ours cars? This would work best if I could find one that fitted instead of one in the boot as don't want to take up space. Anyone know how much room we have under the drivers seat (with seat at lowest) on these? Cheers Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk

    Deciding on Oil Weight

    I know there's a tonne of info out there on oil weights for these so apologies, but I often come away reading threads even more confused from varying opinion, so perhaps this wont help me, but here goes. I'd like help deciding on the grade of oil to switch to at next opportunity. N/A car used daily, with currently no oil cooler and perhaps 5 trackdays a year. I've struggled with oil temperatures on track (e.g bedford in 25C heat, got to 125C oil temp in a little over 1 lap!) and I realise the lack of pressure up to these temps can be a major issue here , so oil cooler will be on the cards at some point soon, O2A or O2W i'm also undecided on.... but anyway, with that in mind: 0W-20 - Good Quality such as millers nanodrive which im currently using. Perhaps this would be okay with an oil cooler even in 25C heat, if temps would stay around the 115-120 mark? I realise not many who track this car stick with this oil weight, but I'd be inclined to think that Toyota/Subaru have done their testing, and they wouldn't expect a car like this to be nanny'd around but still chose this weight? (emissions/economy play a part here too i realise) 0W-30 - I believe Rogue recommend this for @will300 and @Deacon (both N/A) but correct me if i'm wrong. Sounds like a good compromise as you're still having similar low temperature viscosity to oem, but with better pressures on track. However, I've read that the bigger the number gap between the two..er 'numbers?' means there are modifiers in the oil to create this versatility, which are prone to breaking down when used on track? 5W-30 Again, correct me if i'm wrong I believe Abbey Motorsport have recommended this (amongst many other places i'm sure) for some who are N/A and use on track (e.g Michael Chan). Clearly this is thicker than oem and has better pressures when hot, so could be more appropriate. This weight is also stated in the manual as an 'temporary' alternative, or used at high speeds/temps (unsure on the balance of it also being daily driver here). I know this is a common alternative for many of you who track the car, but are there any downsides, such as increased engine wear when 'cold' being a 5W, and is the british climate cold enough to matter against 0Wxx? And we could go onto heavier however I think for me, its probably one of the above to go with for now staying N/A and the use of the car. The ultimate of course would be switching oils before and after trackdays, or switching through winter/summer months - but it'd be ideal to have something to use all the time. Any help deciding would be appreciated! Thanks

    Deciding on Oil Weight

    Interesting point. So if thinner oil is necessary there, but we don't want too thin to lose too much pressure with track abuse at high temps (with 0w20), would mean an oil cooler would be the best thing to do here to keep it at a certain viscosity range which would satisfy both arguments? (perhaps the 0w30 would also be a good approach to this) Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk

    Deciding on Oil Weight

    Ok. So I'll probably be looking at 5w-30 or 0w-30, as it doesn't sound like there'll be that much difference. I'd probably just more conscious of changing the oil sooner after trackdays if using the 0w30 due to the risk of the modifiers breaking down from track temps, but I imagine as Millers nanodrive do this grade (high quality), and pairing with an oil cooler to keep temps down, could be a good move Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk

    Thanks guys Any thoughts on why rogue prefer 0W-30 to say 5W-30 for your car@Deacon? Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk

    Deciding on Oil Weight

    Thanks for the very detailed answer! Some good info there So that example at Bedford last year, it was very hot ambient to be fair, and I'm using torque with obd2 (is this taken from the hottest point in the oil system?), and yes within 2 laps I was slowing off as I'd set an alarm at 125...perhaps I should of left it even longer to cool off before going back out but the temps seem to drop quickly on these. I have the moroso sump baffle so should be good from that viewpoint although probably won't be going wider than 215 anyway. Are you running an oil cooler? Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk

    We'd like your feedback if possible...

    Don't think it'd affect me too much as I think the quality of work you do is worth making the journey Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk

    TD over pipe

    I'm not sure that's the overpipe mate, looks more like the section of manifold that comes up near the airbox... Could be wrong though Edit: seen the other post where it was confirmed. I stand corrected Sent from my Pixel 4 using Tapatalk
