[QUOTE=maddog]So how many km's have you done and how high is your oil consumption...Subaru bottom end and you don't follow what they recommend...why? Would you stick your hand in a fire if you were told?[/QUOTE]

yeah, it was a built motor. I followed the builders instructions. Oil consumption was negligable. Blow-by was pretty much non-existant. would drain the catch can about every 6 months, had mostly condensation in it with some oil, probably 100mls?

Was up to 25,000kms on the engine, running 1.5 to 1.7bar all the time.

I am picking up a new truck in Melbourne in a couple of weeks and driving it back cause I have never had the pleasure.

New truck / nullabor run on the rev limiter for the win.

over 3200km in 3 days. That will run the puppy in.

hey brendon, are there any hills along the nullabour.. hahahahhaha

Honestly I think listening to builder/mechanics advice is overrated. ESPECIALLY if they are offering a warrenty.

depends how wealthy you are.....

Great Ocean Road and then Adelaide hills FTW. If ain't run in by the end of that ain't never gonna happen.

P.S. It isn't actually a bad trip with cruise and an OK stereo ( Large collection of music to )

Watch the roo's early in the morning once you hit WA. Pretty clear till you hit the boarder though.
