Ash007ks

I have been looking as well, just out of curiosity what power will you be running as standard is good for at least 300bhp depending on the condition ?, or if its a must have a look at getting an STI Top mount, this will involve some slight modding to the bracket as its slightly bigger.

welcome welcome

:o

well on the plus side Gambit atleast she was wet :)

its a shame your so far from Sheffield as im looking at hosting a big Subaru meet at my mates garage next month.

the weather has been truly awful here this weekend and as such ill try to get a video tomorrow :) great news about the buy though :)

Maybe we should set up our own tuning called AJG Motors :)

saw this on a thread and just checked the site for you, prices look spot on for mobile valeting as well. http://www.gleamgenie.co.uk/

any pics of this car mate as £400 is a decent price.

Welcome, any pics of the mighty machine ?

Do you have your own business or personal ?, and always liked the UK 300, either way nice looking motors matey.

To me the Car looks very Evo6 ish :) like the Tommy Mak edition.

Ofc I reckon they need a bit of Ash's styling advice.

Welcome :) is that your Scoob in the attachment or in your display ?

2 things, exhaust is way way way too raspy for my liking, after all its a Subaru for goodness sake and why has it got silver wheels when it looks like that it should have atleast black/gold wheels.

Get some G3 compound and colour restorer and you will have her back to shine in no time ;)

ill do a vid with mine in and out

Just get a baffle insert for daily driving, about £11 on ebay, make sure there is no rust in the sills and the Arches, check under the boot lining as if this is fitted with a spoiler and done wrong it will leak, also make sure that it isn't leaking from the tail lights as the seals do sometimes go, wiring under dash is a big one as well have a quick nosey to see if its like a spaghetti junction, this will indicate chop and change. Engine: check when it was last serviced, if it has had a rebuild and has proof of this, is it the original turbo, condition of the radiator, check the oil filler cap for Creamy substance as this will indicate head gasket, listen for knocking on revving and idle this can be done under the bonnet by pressing the throttle, is there any blue smoke on rev as this could indicate damaged Oil seal on the turbo or worse damaged piston Ring. check what type of Oil/Filter is been used, and also what fuel is put into the car. On the Block itself check the heads on both sides for weeping or oil on the floor if it doesn't have the Shi* plate as this will indicate new gaskets are needed. Listen to it idle, should have the Subaru burble with not much ticking noise, depending on condition of the engine ( mine has high ticking on idle due to oversized pistons), check that the engine isn't vibrating badly. When driving make sure it doesn't pull to the left or the Right as this indicates tracking is out or worse could have hit a kerb at some point. What I would suggest is you Aim around £2k mark as anything below that has mostly been ragged to high heaven, I genuinely try to avoid Modified examples depending on who owns it however if you have a look at mine I got mine modified however its cost me around £900 to sort mapping etc, so be mindful. Prob missed a few bits but im shattered , anything else pop me a PM

Twitter is where its at, like Facebook but on steroids

ill take the TD05 as long as you don't want the earth for it.

yeah it is a crazy car tbh, the problem I found when looking for Rotas is that just about every scoob has them and in the end this is what put me off buying them, but im just weird like that :)

hate to say it but it did actually look good in the flesh.

while I was waiting for a remap I found your shape Scooby with Rota Grids on ill get it off my phone and post so you can see.

is ESL the ECU as I have an ECu in full working condition ??

I don't actually think the non turbo is that much better on fuel if I remember, you could always look at a remap, Cost is high but you can get it mapped for MPG + Regular unleaded, mine gets around 80 miles per £20 and that's 276bhp and in those 80 miles some may be faster than others :P
