    What oil/filter do you use?

    What oil/filter? Glad it worked for you! A Suabru builder gave me that regiment to swap to syn. He said not to pussyfoot around, be aggressive. 1,000,000% glad I listened to him. I passed it on to all my buddies.

    Expy is no more

    Glad everyone is ok!! To be honest; everything else is replacable. As long as life and limb is preserved, the rest doesn't matter.

    What oil/filter do you use?

    When I swapped over to synthetic in my Subaru, the car was at 120k miles and it was a little process. Swapped in the synthetic, drove 500 miles and changed the oil and filter. It was BLACK. Ran another 1,000 miles, changed the oil, it was BLACK again. Ran another 1,000 miles and changed, changed...

    I believe 2007-15 are all the same. Should be able to bolt in just about anything/everything. Look at local pick and pull/pull-yourself junkyards. Usually larts are pretty cheap and they give discounts for large quantities of parts

    I got my parents and brother this: https://www.amazon.com/Emergency-Road-Side-Auto-KIT/dp/B016KUCUPG/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1482419535&sr=8-8&keywords=Xp-10 For the motorcycles. I didn't pay anywhere close to that much though. Started my brother's 04 Cummins with no problem.

    What oil/filter do you use?

    There is truth to this. Synthetic oil,at the molecular level, is smaller than conventional dino oil. The synthetic oils smaller molecular structure not only allows it to better combat shear and breakdown and retain more consistant pressures, it also allows it through smaller/tighter areas. These...

    What oil/filter do you use?

    I concur. I ran the diesel oul in a built turbo engine I beat the living bejesus out of daily. It saw 22.5psi and 7k rpm daily and still got 7,500-10,000 miles between services. Fluids have come a very long way.

    Your nuts if you think the factory sub amp...

    Some of that old school stuff was built like a TANK! I had a JVC that lasted forever, just like yours. I also had a Pioneer P1R that was beyond advanced in 2000 when I sold it to my buddy and was still being used as of this past summer.

    What oil/filter do you use?

    I'm going to start a spreadsheet and track everything stated in the thread. No poster names, just specific products so I can research each one and apply findings to them in a manner that is easily understandable and not confusing. Thank you to everyone for their input thus far!

    What oil/filter do you use?

    Is this supercharger an engine oil lubricated or a standalone sealed lubrication supercharger? I assume its engine, but just want clarification

    What oil/filter do you use?

    Out of curiosity, why have you fought the urge to go full synthetic?

    Hahaha too funny! I had to get a new windshield in my Green Subaru Forester because of the wife. We have a big German Shepard Dog, Nadia, who likes to ride in the front seat and sits like a human in the seat. Well, the wife came tearing into the driveway after we just had a phone argument and...

    I still have a US Amps 50x2 amp somewhere in the garage. 50x2 at 8 ohms and its .5 ohm stable, that equates to ALOT of power. Looking through the clear bottom there is 8 gauge wiring running from the boards to the power/ground and the out puts. Nothing wrong with "old school" I know, old...

    4pin and 7pin trailer wiring, sanity check me!!

    Ladies and Gentlemen, I call upon you to sanity check my newest crackpot scheme. I have a utility trailer that gets a decent amount of use between myself and my neighbors. It has LED lights throughout with reverse light capable tail lights, but the reverse wiring is not run since it is a 4 pin...

    What oil/filter do you use?

    From my own personal experience, Subaru engines (the EJ255/WRXand EJ257/STi to be more specific) are very sensitive to not only viscosity but pressure variances. This is why the Blue Subaru OEM filters are strongly recommended for use on these engines, even by high end motocross builders. Alot...

    What oil/filter do you use?

    I have had a myriad of vehicles and am always looking for the best ways to keep my junks up and running and plugging down the road. A little background: I was afforded the opportunity to get certified as a Pertoleum Labratory Specialist, which means I was taught how to run the full variety of...

    The wife can drive. My last DD was a 2004 Subaru Forester XT. An AWD stationwagon with 4.44 limited slip diffs, close geared 5sp and a factory installed STi engine. Which had some "love" and massaging to 355 awhp/345 awtq. Ultimate sleeper with quiet exhaust and a nonchalant stance. Hahaha She...
