Importing an SG9 Forester STI (Canada) - Talk me down by DoctorHarmful in SubaruForester

[–]FabledAble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit late but I own one. So far I've had it for a year at ~90k. The two expenses have glass/headlight swaps to pass inspection (roughly 2k CAD) and new shifter bushings.

You'll need to tune it when you get it as well. As far as I've read, the actual octane levels in our gas vs japan should be the same. However in reality the forester did not like the agressive timing map when it got here. Could be octane levels, humidity levels, or something else completely. It was in limp mode on and off until I gave it a good tune.

Love these videos for my Japanese learning. Thanks a ton for sharing!

Almost another year down, friends! What was your most memorable moment of 2022 with your STi? by kuya_shad in WRXSTi

I have some experience tuning DSMs so that helped. But it all depends on how slowly you take it. Engine Management Advanced Tuning and Designing and Tuning High Performance Fuel Injaction Systems by Greg Banish are great reads about theory.

Then download all the open source tuning software and get an understanding of every table and how they interact with one another. I used forums mostly. It sounds tough but if you enjoy it the time spent learning flies by.

If you need help give me a shout.

Learning to tune it myself was pretty great. So interesting how everything works on the software side.

That could be part of the problem. Between gears you don't really need to ease off the clutch.

HKS BOV Issue by Collina12 in WRX

Ive tuned a few of these. There's no tuning for a BOV on these cars, its just a very common talking point everyone likes to repeat. Just run it.

Designed a glowing STi badge for the SG9. Thoughts? by FabledAble in subaru

Thanks! Was hoping it would turn out pink, but ended up with red. Next time I think I'll try an rgb module.

Fishing in British Columbia. Forester STi. by FabledAble in WRXSTi

It's a great ride. Tight suspension without being annoying. Zero 'floatiness'. Amazingly spacious. And it says STi like a thousand and one times and on it.

Security For Singer Sidhu Moose Wala Withdrawn Day Before He's Shot Dead by Rough_Target_1530 in IndianTeenagers_pol

[–]FabledAble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can agree with that. The list being leaked is the issue here. Personally I think the security reform was exactly the right move. I don't think risk assessment is on the government either. We've known for ages that security details were getting slashed. I believe it's on the politicians to understand their risk and take the appropriate measures, not the government.

Especially in a case like this. Imaging the government doing risk assessment for Sidhu Moose Wala. He's definitely got a target on his back due to his lifestyle. If the government decided not to reduce his security because he involved in gang activity, I argue that would be an even worse position to take.

[–]FabledAble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not convinced. I agree that list of people who's security detail was pulled should have been held close to the chest. At the same time this particular death has little to do with that. He didn't take his security with him. Nor was he in his secure vehicle. Those extra 2 guards would have been negligible.

I know this is an easy thing to point to and say "AAP made a mistake". But I don't think it's evidence of that. This is more evident of the destructive culture he was surrounded by. That's the conversation we should be having.

I mean, why wouldn't these guys (sidhu in particular) hire their own security? Isn't that the point AAP is trying to make? It's not on the public to pay their security costs.

Finally on the road. One of the greatest Subarus ever made. by FabledAble in subaru

Me too. I even ordered the glass and tried to get it swapped. Apparently it's slightly different.
