I have just had my 2001 gt forester revamped with a catless up pipe saving my turbo and a ecutek tune with MRT performance..I had to ask Brett where did he hide the extra 2 cylinders my car feels like ...well outstanding....use the best mechanical workshop with the longest knowledge.of subaru mods that save your car fuel and make your subaru what it was made to be.

I have had a Subaru forester 1997 (automatic) from new, that has been great for all the years with very little to do other than annual services. However, recently I have had a lot of vibration & shuddering on the wheels when making tight turns (left or right). It is difficult to identify which wheels the noise or shudder comes from and I don't feel much through the steering wheel. I have had all differentials replace that has reduced the frequency but not always. We hope it isn't the automatic gear box but has anyone got any ideas what to do next.

[@plantpoweredhealth9383]

Wheel bearings are common fault.

great vid

Bought one recently. Auto. Nice car to drive but in Melbourne. Got a series of questions. Do you have MRT in Melbourne?

[@MRTPerformanceAustralia]

[@Aviationrcfpv]

when coming in for a tune should I have the stock boost solenoid connected or leave my aftermarket electric boost controller

[@lewissears2976]

+Aviationrcfpv I'm not MRT obviously, but if you're planning on running higher than stock boost you will need to have your ebc hooked in so it can be tuned to suit the desired boost level

[@Aviationrcfpv]

+Lewis Sears was curious weather the stock solenoid would be ajustible through ecu tune

[@MRTPerformanceAustralia]

+Aviationrcfpv a good tuner can adjust boost with OEM parts, no external EBC needed!

[@Pregun1990]

Hi Brett,
Just wondering if you have an email address so I can send you a message asking about the control arm bush you started talking about at roughly 3:20.
Cheers,
Marc
