I agree that if people have a negative view or opinion that they should detail why they feel they are correct. That way we can all learn and identify the truth.

No need for rudeness in any form.

If you go back over posts, a view could be had that for advice given from the local and regular experienced Perth folk, you do appear to discredit them by offering conflicting story/opinion/information followed by some story about your previous 30 engine builds "in the UK".

I would suggest to ease up on doing that.
There was every need in my opinion. It seems that more or less every post I make this joker has something negative to say. I've no idea why. Maybe he has connections to a certain garage that's done several really bad Subaru engine builds. Or it could be the fact that someone's come along that has a lot of knowledge and experience of building Subarus and for whatever reason he taken exception to that.

I noticed you liked his post though so I'm assuming this is some sort of band of brothers thing going on.
Either way it sucks. I'm genuinely only trying to help and pass on knowledge and experience. The only reason I mention my previous builds is because if I didn't I'm sure people like you and your mate would no doubt accuse me of being some sort of newbie that googles well.

To be fair I think I'm just not going to bother in future. I've better ways of spending my time that's for sure.

Also, many parts suppliers get manufacturers to build/make parts to order because they already have the tooling and machinery in place which means it is cheaper for them to outsource than to set up and make their own products. Take disc brake rotors for example. DBA rotors are made in the exact same factory as a lot of "lesser" brands, but they are made with stricter controls/QA and even different metallurgy.

So no different to say Subaru taking a $68 o2 sensor, putting it in a subaru box and asking several hundred dollars?
