would you believe CS is Nearly 20 years young? from humble beginnings in Hamliton in 1997 to where we are now

Wow, great to see the club I started back in 97 is still going strong. Started with flyers under window wipers in Hamilton and gradually grew from there. We had great support from Subaru NZ, which I guess took us that little bit further. Had some great years and met some great people along the way, still very good friends with some of them. Seems it is good hands, keep up the great work.

a TON of information/images have been lost over the years & I'm asking for anyone with contacts/nostalgic feeling to post-up or share your good vibes (negative or derogatory comments may be deleted)

I recall when I joined 2003 Thorpy was active and Nordy was webmonster, there was the 20" club, Sc00byd00 & fastfour

QWERTY had a Prova BE etc

and a member created this page http://homepages.ihug.co.nz/~ccgrant/legacyhome.htm

any info will go towards updating our frontpage

http://clubsub.org.nz/the-club/

trying to get things right/correct:cool:

Now you are making me feel old. I meet up with the clubsub crew back in 98. They were having a meet and greet at Possum Bourne's workshop.

Had a couple of the Christchurch guys help me out with wedding cars (WRXER, X37637). I was quite active with the club up until 2004. But with family growing up and being the only active member living on the West Coast made it too much of a commitment.

I don't post very often but I am always lurking in the forums.

Below is a few old photos from clubsub events and also from our wedding 11 years ago.

here is my story ( and I guess I have been a "member" for alot of those years)

I joined a wellington based Subaru club way back in the mid '90's ( cant remember the name) this then combined with CLUBSUB in the late '90's and the rest they say is history :)

Was good times back when I first joined , think it was around 2001 , Many hours spent on CS IRC Chat.

CHCH was pretty small , Mainly Myself , Nick ( WRXER ), Jason ( X37637 ), Shibby ( cant remember his name )and Peter Carmine.

We used to have monthly meets at Rockpool

I had this page going when I was CHCH area rep , must have been 2003 http://homepages.paradise.net.nz/blairthorpe/index.htm

A few pics of my old BG5 with Jason's GC8 ( X37637 )

Active users I can remember Fastfour , Joker , CJ and Graham , Gareth and Ian Mallett ( cant remember their usernames ) , Garrick ( sirwrx ) , Andrew ( tremmer? )

Car shows were really popular , I remember going to 4 and rotas and hanging with the auckland crew on the club stand ( think this was 2002 or 2003 )

I have been around since about 06 I think. I joined and lurked for a bit and my first meet was a MM at Taupo, maybe Odies last?

I remember staying at a house someone setup and having a blast on the back track car control thing. Good fun watching Ben and Clint throw there wagons about as well.

Quicker to take digital photos of photos and crop them? I have to do something similar with a whole lot of old sports teams photos

Taking a photo of a photo and not having it look like complete **** is actually quite hard.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
