OneSixty's $500 SG Forester

retgw.png

Recently purchased a $500 SG Forester. This and the photos may raise a few questions so i'll answer them so you don't have to ask

Q: What is going to happen with the L-Series? A: Cleaning of the L-Series will be finished and then it will be sold.
Q: Why was it so cheap? A: The owner said the clutch wasn't working, now have found out it's just a missing clutch operating fork. Also won't run on it's own fuel and sounds like only 3 cylinders.
Q: Where is the airbox? A: The owner had taken the airbox off to inspect the clutch.

and it has been washed since the photos were taken

Here are some links to the photos:

Changing your resonator and rear muffler will gain you better subi beat ;)

If you don’t mind sharing, what did these set you back?

All this and you’re HOW old??

I wish I had my poop sorted like this back in my day - still with an L series though as the foresters were “really really new” back then...

Keep up the good work!

My offroadsubarus sticker has not handled the West Australian sun too well... To be fair, the Subieliftoz sticker I also have on the back window that went on not too long after the offroadsubarus sticker is also doing a similar thing

That’s pretty normal after about 3-5 years in the Australian sun/general weather, depending on the quality of the vinyl used.

My old Ausubaru cracked as the vinyl shrunk rather than lifting and rolling the edges like yours above. I’ve had several stickers peel and roll along their top edge as seen with your sticker Onesixty.

Need to remember that many things are not forever in this world, vinyl stickers included. Parking your vehicle in a garage at home or in undercover car parking when out and about would do wonders for sticker and paint longevity!

I have read that UELs reduce efficiency - but they do sound great!
Yeah was doing a little reading into it and either uel or el are going to be better than the standard headers, in terms of efficiency, the only downside was apparently heat build up on the uel header long side which can lead to ring land failure, but for street use the temp difference was barely anything and not something to worry about
