I just wanted to take a quick moment to wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Thank you for supporting the Subaru Performance Handbook by joining our mailing list in 2008. We have enjoyed the successful release of the 3rd Edition this year covering all models up to the MY08 range and look forward to continue to be able to provide you with the great information to help you out.
We have already seen the release of the 2009 WRX here in Australia and we will continue to update the book with great information throughout the New Year keeping you up to date with top info on the latest models as soon as they are released.
Many are lucky to get some extra time off work over the holiday season, it is a great time to put some extra work into your car as well. As we add new information to the book in the New Year we will probably not be able to keep the price as low as it is today - however, if you own the book - you will get access to any new updates we release throughout 2009 at no additional cost to you.
So, as a Christmas Gift, I have reduced the price to under $20 USD if you buy before the 25th December.
It’s Sunday afternoon here in Australia and I am currently down at the Snowy Mountains enjoying a short break with my family before the end of winter on Monday and enjoying some time on the slopes.
I think it is important to take time out from your normal routine to get away and freshen up the batteries. Now that the cold of winter is going to be behind us, I am sure you are thinking about more opportunities to give your car a good hard punt around the track and blow away some of the cobwebs under the summer sun.
If your car has been sitting around lately and not getting a regular drive then before you get back out on the track you should inspect the car for any fluid leaks or loose components. A fresh look with a different perspective may reveal something you missed before.
Pay particular attention to brake pads, discs and flexible hoses and consider having your brake system flushed and refilled with competition grade Dot 5.1 fluid if you tend to be hard on your brakes so that you are getting maximum performance right off the bat.
Its my goal to make sure you have as much fun as you can with your car. So while I was sitting back here relaxing (sorry, I don’t mean to rub it in…) it occurred to me that I should do everything I can to share my knowledge with you. I try to do that in the emails that I send you and I hope you get a lot of value from those but at the end of the day, that information is only going to get you part of the way there.
To start seeing more dramatic improvements you need to dig deep into each part of your car and see what you can achieve and one of the easiest ways that you can start to get the knowledge you need is by reading the Subaru Performance Handbook.
But I don’t want you to have to break the bank to get it.
If you have been searching the internet high and low to find out that last critical piece of information that will improve the performance of your Subaru, then you can stop looking.
I have just flicked the switch on the new look site for the Subaru Performance Handbook that now contains more information than every on the essential knowledge you need to service and modify your Subaru.
I will be updating this blog, and our regular members as we add more content to the site.
If you have any requests for topics that you would like us to cover then either post a comment on the blog or email us directly using the “Contact Us” link on the main site.
This is a goldmine of information that builds on the solid foundation that we have given you in the Subaru Performance Handbook.
Go and check out the new site now at http://www.subaruperformancehandbook.com and you will see the links on the left hand side that point you to all the great free audio content that is already on there.
Let us know here at the Subaru Performance Blog if you have made any wacky or crazy mods to your WRX.Get in contact with us and we will happily post your mods on the blog.
Don’t forget you can win a copy of the Subaru Performance Handbook just by posting your Subaru pictures this month.
Are you already modifying your Subaru, or about to? I can remember when I first started and knew I wanted to do something, I was so excited, but could not decide where to start!
Then I was worried if I was making a mistake!
I wish back then I had some easy reference manual to help me decide and also steer me in the right direction.
Not only did I want to modify my car, but I wanted to race it on the dirt in the forest! I spent ages speaking to people, getting all sorts of confusing information, all I wanted to do was get stuck into it and do something!
The other problem was it was taking me ages to research all the information and collate it!
That’s why for the last 9 years I have been collaborating with fellow mechanics and WRX heads to put together the ultimate guide to Subaru performance modifications and tuning - the Subaru Performance Handbook.
What we have done is put all the information into 22 easy to read chapters that are designed for both the beginner as well as the serious tuner.
No matter how simple or complicated your reasearch, this book will provide you with incredible information that you will benefit from.
Why have we done this? Because I’ve seen how people get motivated and excited about doing it for themselves, when they learn this information they get better value out of their car and the money they invest in it.
We get a real kick out of helping people to reach their cars potential, as people helped me when I modified my first Subaru.
So enjoy. Get motivated. And if you would like some extra help getting your subaru into serious shape- because hopefully you’ll be driving it and having fun with it for a long time yet to come, use the link below to find out more about how we can help you.
