February 3, 201510 yr Just had new plugs fitted......Dave, beware..........it`s a long and sweary job! Andy`s looked after all my girls in the past and he`s shithot with these engines but it`s the 1st time with the 6. In his words...WHAT A ******!! They were 70`000 mile plugs so it was slightly over due and he`s cleaned the injectors so lets see if it ups the MPG. I`m getting really crappy mileage.
February 3, 201510 yr Oh joy....I'll look forward to the bill for that when the stealer decides it needs doing then. Mines on 70k now (I assume that's what you meant [emoji6]) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

February 3, 201510 yr Been on the trader tonight...there seems to be quite a few of the new wrx sti for sale as used cars under £25k already......really surprised me; are they that bad? I thought they'd be like hens teeth [emoji16] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
February 3, 201510 yr I want a 3.0 :( My scooby received a compliment today, bmw driver said its really smooth n comfortable... :)
February 3, 201510 yr Come join me Tom! Way out my league too gambit, just a bit surprised seeing as though the initial UK allocation was snapped up so quickly Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

February 3, 201510 yr Decided not to get the wheels... bought myself drop links and rear strut brace instead. Hopefully both arriving before or on the weekend. :)

February 4, 201510 yr Author Crappy led sidlights gone again, two pairs in 3 months think I'm just going to revert back to 'normal' bulbs
February 4, 201510 yr You`ll have to let us know the price Dave!..............I think I payed about £300 ish for one one my 98 model but that was about 10 years ago.....single box. are you just having a standard set or with a bit more roar. Also, you may want to have unequal headers, even with standard you get that fantastic burble as you lift off the throttle.
February 4, 201510 yr Crappy led sidlights gone again, two pairs in 3 months think I'm just going to revert back to 'normal' bulbs These have lasted 3 years, I took them off the old car...like a tight ****** http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/501-W5W-GEN-3-CANBUS-5W-CREE-SMD-LED-BULBS-WHITE-/370640677465?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&fits=Car+Make%3ASubaru%7CModel%3AForester%7CCars+Year%3A1998%7CPlat_Gen%3ASF%7CCars+Type%3A2.0+S+Turbo&hash=item564be7ea59
February 4, 201510 yr Author Those are the ones I bought 1st time lasted until Christmas replaced them with a different sen and ones gone already grrrr
February 4, 201510 yr Could be canbus related stants?......message the seller and ask his advice, they should really last ages!
February 4, 201510 yr Author Nope me no canbus, think they may be failing due to vibrations one had almost fallen apart

Also, you may want to have unequal headers, even with standard you get that fantastic burble as you lift off the throttle. Been quoted ball park 450 but we will see how accurate that is. Driving round with the exhaust blowing a bit has convinced me I want something on the quiet side for normal running but that still gives you something audible when you boot it. Will see what they can come up with, but don't want to spend excessively Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I would think....and i`m no expert but I do have a grasp of basic physics......that the burble comes from one bank not being equal to the other so the escaping gasses get swirled around unevenly and clatter into one another.
