May 27, 201510 yr Not done anything to mine still waiting to hear about this gearbox not heard a thing :( Starting to think not getting it. I was looking for the "dislike" button??? Need a new button!!! Lol
May 27, 201510 yr You will have to let Steve know :D I'll chase it up tomorrow I was hoping to have it back on the road this week. But it's holding me up now :(
May 27, 201510 yr I feel your pain!!! It will be back in and ready for the weekend for sure!!! Good things come to those who wait!! - oh hang on, that's Guiness!! Lol
May 27, 201510 yr I've been disconnecting and photographing a few more bits, ready for my new engine! De-gassing my own air conditioning was possibly the most stupid thing I've ever done. (Probably should've looked it up before doing it)
May 27, 201510 yr Seemed easier to take the pipe straight off the AC pump, rather than try and take it all out with the engine... I'm sure somebody will tell me there was a much simpler way of doing that now!
May 28, 201510 yr Put four pots and new discs but now when I hit 80ish I get quite a bad steering wheel shake that wasn't there on the two pots, would I just of knocked the wheel balancing or something? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
May 28, 201510 yr Might be worth checking all bolts are tight, only thing I can think of really. Unless the discs are out of shape?
May 28, 201510 yr Did you take all four off and put them back on the same way you took them off ? Or did the pistons on the brake calipers move freely. But I'd have a look at the drop links on the front make sure ones not snapped check tyres for any bubbling on the inside rim. As Gaulson said check bolt's. If all that is fine I'd think it was the discs.
May 28, 201510 yr Been a bit out of it past couple of days due to having a tooth out, Subaru hasn't come out from under the cover since the weekend. Going to be a double whammy tonight, need fuel in the Seat on way home and then the Scoob needs some on my joy ride tonight! lol
May 28, 201510 yr Managed to find a brand new subaru starter motor on Ebay for 60 quid! bargain! here's the seller, proper top bloke... ordered a few times from him now. http://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/impartsb46
May 28, 201510 yr Been out for my drive to get fuel... had to fend off a C3, yes, a C3 :(. He was right up my behind, decided you only live once and drove like a bad man. Took him 5 minutes to catch up once I had got to the 30 zone :). Then followed a drunk/texting driver in a 15 plate Golf who was all over the road and I mean all over... wish I had my GoPro!
May 28, 201510 yr Made a feeble start on replacing my vac lines before light failed ... Maybe have to do the rest at the weekend in the man-cave at work as I don't have one at home [emoji22] Although, have test driven after .. I guess even the smallest of vac leaks makes a huge difference in the response from throttle [emoji33] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
May 28, 201510 yr More goodies through :D New front anti roll bar links and bushes to go with my new rear anti roll bar, links and bushes. Ready to be fitted and then geo set up. Just trying to decide whether to get some hubcentric wheel spacers too. Expensive and heard they can cause excessive hub wear. But my wheels are pretty sunk into the arches and a slightly wider track would be beneficial. Plus can 5mm or 10mm each side really harm the hubs that much? Need more research me thinks....
May 29, 201510 yr Author Taxed this morning, still trying to get my insurance company to take my money, rather strangley they don't appear to want it, supposd to have called back three days running
May 29, 201510 yr Just ordered a pair of these :) http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/car-tyres/falken/ziex-ze914/215-55-r17-94w-273225
May 30, 201510 yr Preparations for NBO started for me today....gave her a good wash and touched in a few stone chips. Also had another go at tackling my road rash on the back quarter of my rear doors....it's not gonna beat me lol. Not sure how well the pics will show the progress, but I reckon I'm getting there and it takes years off the cars age....some before and afters Hopefully will be able to tell the difference when I look on laptop later [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
May 30, 201510 yr Been looking at the depo 4-1 gauge but the uk seller is out of stock. Does anyone know a franchisee or a different brand that uses the same set up?
May 30, 201510 yr Looks loads better David! [emoji106] Sent from my Galaxy S6 edge using Tapatalk Cheers mate; it's getting there. I reckon a couple more sessions with the megs ultimate compound and I'll be there. Magic stuff it is [emoji6] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
May 30, 201510 yr There is a chance I will get my car back next week so been looking into exhorts and downpipes ready for when I get it back. Not sure if I should loose the cat or not but know I need a better system than stock.
May 30, 201510 yr yeah looking good david :) I'm playing taxi for the missus tonight... Least the legacy is fun to drive ;)
