Depending on whats being taught and what day it is I would probably do the odd roadie down to attain some knowledge...

Brake bleeding and flush would be high on my list, I have been out in a while but I always felt dirty paying someone to flush and replace my brake fluid before trackdays. also suspension, wheel bearing, and Gearbox trickery (Simple removal and clutch chaging) would be high on my to learn list.

Unless you have a Gen 4 Legacy, you need a press to do wheel bearings.

Ah ok well scratch that.

Other subjects that would interest me even though there fairly basic is turbo removal and inatake manifold removal and replacement.

Would be nice to maybe learn a few tricks or reinforce from a pro that I have done it right.

maybe a basic one and then an expert one as if i am going to wellington to for it i dont really want to have to sit through stuff i know,

[Shale]

Not a bad idea. Newfags like me always benefit from the most basic stuff, but those who've been around the block and rebuilt their beasts from scratch I'm sure wanna see far more interesting things

[DacerX]

pretty much

One piece of advice... Don't look at it as a car. It's too much to take in. Look at is as suspension system, brakes, intake manifold, turbo etc. Once you break each bit down and understand it, the whole car becomes so much more simple.

I look at it as a myriad of different parts for me to break until I find the original fault. More entertaining to go in blind and randomly take shit apart. Thats how I have learnt everything so far.

Take off car -> break -> ask someone why it broke -> replace -> don't touch again coz it's new and you now know what it does.

Can't say I haven't done that too Effective but expensive method of learning.

On a unrelated note: I need stuff to do next week. I've already booked an alarm install. I have a few other odd jobs, but may have spare time

This is during normal work hours.
