Gambit Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Bought the DashCmd app as its compatible with my Pioneer head unit. So I can get it on the screen rather than looking at the phone, and all the functions work on the touch screen :) only downside is I cant connect with my new Iphone 5 as i have to by a new adapter :( Nice thats like what I want for the CarPC to give me a view like that :) Well braided hoses came today just waiting on the tyres. then good fun starts with the fitting :)
Th4neuk Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 They do a couple of Subaru skins for the app as well. I got it when bod reader came and have been playing with it. Seems to work well. Once my ne dash comes from Japan I can go get my Stereo from Halfords and hopefully this should work the same as it's a pioneer one too. What is the sound quality like on yours? Cheers Alan
cusco scooby wagon Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 today i've been caliping! oh so many calipers
Dogconker Posted July 10, 2014 Posted July 10, 2014 Been over a week now and i've not cleaned mine, just rinsed off the bird doodoo. Starting to get withdrawal symptoms. Might watch karate kid ease the craving......wax on, wax off aaaarrgghh!!! Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 2
Gaulson Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Going to the Subaru breakers tomorrow.... I think my bank account is going to suffer ;) 1
Gaulson Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 This car is at the breakers... HERE The intercooler is what i'm after but looking at it there could be a few other things of interest :P . Tempted for the 6 speed conversion but that might be going a bit too far lol
stants Posted July 11, 2014 Author Posted July 11, 2014 What model ia yours mate? On phone can't see I'd save your money as the standard newage I/c is good for 350bhp unless you want the look ?
Gaulson Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Mine is a bug WRX, the JDM STI intercooler is 40% bigger. Should be better looking and there has got to be some for of benefit? Especially with hard driving
stants Posted July 11, 2014 Author Posted July 11, 2014 You'd have to make sure it fits or modify your brackets to accommodate the larger size or buy the brackets with it. I wouldn't put it on with out having the map done as it will affect the air/fuel ratio.
Gaulson Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Comes with everything, brackets and Y pipe. Will see how it goes, I'm heading for 300bhp so if the car drives rough or anything it might kick start my upgrade :) EDIT: I've checked my brackets and they have been modified already. Looks like it's had a bigger intercooler on before, maybe during it's previous remap? There's a lot of mystery with this car it seems.
Scooby Pete Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 piut the back seats down so I could get me new Bike in the back. Scoob will spend some time on the drive, need to get fit so cycling to work. Also will give me a chance t take the wing mirrors off and send them for Dipping. 1
Gambit Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 tyres came today if I get chance work will start this weekend :)
stants Posted July 11, 2014 Author Posted July 11, 2014 Ordered new Wiper Blades whoooo ! I'm in same boat pete that on 29" rims ? Some fu*ker stole my bike just driving everywhere at mo. Joining gym this weekend
salsa-king Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Just setting up these to fit this weekend ;) a friend is coming over to help with bumper removal :ouch:
Scooby Pete Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 I reckon you should paint the horn grills to match the body work :)
Dogconker Posted July 11, 2014 Posted July 11, 2014 Spent an hour or so getting a 4' scuff out of my wife's car door because some crap for brains knob, can't drive, and then effed off without owning up to it. Fortunately it was just the lacquer coat so I've managed to get all shiny again with some polishing paste and elbow grease, plus earned some major brownie points from the wife for making her car look new again [emoji3] Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk 1

Dogconker Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Anything involving Audi bashing is a tick into book. Only thing better is Passat bashing. Or chav corsa baiting, that's always fun, especially if you're in an off-roader, my favourite pastime. I wrote a thread just for these people, it's in the junk room called "important information for Audi and BMW drivers" might inspire you to more Audi bashing, there's some interesting stuff in it Keep up the good work!

JusNoGood Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Yesterday I ordered these... Decided to bite the bullet and buy myself a Power washer. Not owned one before but played around with a friends. I do like any type of power tool :D Also got some of this that came highly recommended from some nerdy detailing site :D : Avalanche Snow Foam Crazy expensive but thought I'd give it a go especially with my new power washer :) Both should be arriving today....so be giving them a go today or tomorrow weather permitting.

Dogconker Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Wife not having a good week, first someone hits her car now when the turbo spools up the car starts juddering as though trying to stall, wondering if one if the turbo pipes has a split in it. Only does it in 4-6th gears and under heavy load such as accelerating up hill, oddly there are no warning lights? Looks like its in for a check up, at Least it's under warranty Sent from my iphone using Tapatalk
salsa-king Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 watch it doesn't break the fins of the turbo and drop in the engine? Is it a Focus by any chance? 1
mfnick Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Got launch control mapped in today and been for a good drive. Had loads of fun and even saw a Ariel Atom while out - never seen one on normal roads before. Couldn't keep up with it though lol. They are ridiculously fast and could take the corners far faster than I dare try. Enjoyed the chase though and got a respectful thumbs up :) 1
