outback

A review by John Cadogan / Auto Expert on youtube

Hi I'm new here, I'm about to pick up a 2007 outback (here in Australia if there's any difference in models). I'm wanting to fit the biggest possible A/T probably a geolanders or similar, don't want to go down the path of lift (at least just yet), going to spend that available money on skid...

Hi guys, I have no experience with the CVT yet and while my SportShift 4EAT can go places, I would like to get insights from you guys about whether or not there are issues with the use of the CVT transmission with the stuff that we do. I am asking because I just found some videos on my YouTube...

Hi there, Was after some advice. I'm trying to decide between two future loves: I finally found a 2007 (3rd gen) Outback with 54, 000 miles on the clock, knocked 1k off the price (to UK£ 6,600) and thought that was that - I put a holding deposit on it, going to see it Friday and drive home...

Hey, I was looking into some skid plates for my 2011 outback premium 2.5i (6sp MT) and I wanted to know what you guys think I should get and what works well. Primitive makes some good looking ones at 3/16" but some forums said you should not have less than 1/4" and the primitive ones aren't very...

Okay, so I'm really excited to learn these cars, and I've already done a ton of research with lifting the GC/GF chassis. I'm hoping someone can help me determine if I should use Forester struts/springs to lift, versus Legacy Outback struts and springs? I've heard a lot of people go with the...

I found this post on Facebook. It's from the Bangor Maine Police Department. I figured you'd all get a kick out of it. Bangor Maine Police Department I am posting this photo tonight for those of you that are not lucky enough to live here in the greatest state in the nation. Sure, you...

Hi all, I'm looking at lifting my '07 Outback and want to do it cheaply like most. I have experience and contacts for laser cutting, and just need templates to make my own 2" strut spacers as the 1" HDPE ones just aren't enough.. Would anyone have templates or experience with this, and also...

Starting from Sydney, we traveled about 5000kms in 10 days - Wagga Wagga, Renmark, Port Augusta, Coober Pedy, Oodnadatta, Marree, Peterborough, Broken Hill, Dubbo and back to Sydney. Here are some photos from the trip.

Hey guys, I can't be the only one whose ride wont give the key back. The steering will not lock and the key will not turn to the lock position. Running through the gears, running or not has made no difference. In fact Ive tried everything this side of dismantling including tweaking the cables...

Ive seen charts that say its 4.11 but people have told me its 3.9, they cant both be wrong. Anyone know for sure?

The clutch in my 01 Outback has just thrown itself to bits. We're at nearly 210,000 klm on the clock. The mechanic has just told me it will be $2 > $3k to replace the clutch with standard suby equipment or Au $1,680 (incl GST) to replace the clutch and flywheel with a solid flywheel and heavy...

Not manny mods yet but hoping to add alot more to my battlewaggon. ___________________________ Mike G 98 Outback Legacy

I posted this over at subaruforester.org, but figured it could also be of interest here... From Melbourne to Mildura via the Calder highway, then out the Arumpo Road to Mungo National Park, then on to Menindee via Pooncarie and through to Broken Hill and Silverton. Finally back to Melbourne...

Hi Everyone, After reading taza’s post from last year about his car accident out bush.This accident happened about a year ago. I thought I should share mine and how dangerous outback driving can be also how well built Subaru’s are and the reason we brought another. And MAINLY how Kind,helpful...

G'day guys, I own a gen2 03 Outback I have been planning on lifting it with a 2" body lift to get some bigger all terrain tires, maybe some 215/70 or 225/70 if i can fit them. I am a bit tight on money but I have also been looking at getting the lifted King Springs. My question is can i...

Hey guys, I just got myself another 97' Outback and am wanting to build some lift spacers for it. I have them all designed in AutoCAD and Solidworks and have templates made from MDF so I know they'll fit but I am just wondering about materials. I want it to be a 1" thick piece of plastic-like...

Hi, I've just bought a manual MY05 Outback, and I'm looking at getting a body lift: I don't want to hit trails or anything, just the beaches, so i figure bigger tyres and fixing the approach angles is all i'll need. I've done a bit of searching on the forum, and I'm struggling to get truly...

I need to mount a DIN Pocket size CB unit, but there is no spare pocket in the 05 Outback. Ideally I would like to mount it to the drivers side of the trannie tunnel, so I can readily read the display. :cool: To do this it will need to be mounted sufficiently far forward to allow seat movement...

Okay so i have a 1999 Subaru Outback (the whole story is long but short my parents bought me with my money and I had no say). I want to give this thing more of a unique look and am wanting to get a roof rack but everywhere I look I can't find and. I am looking for ones like these...
