Ash007ks

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

I have always liked that shape pug, however a lot of boy racers have killed the reputation of them up here, does yours make the high pitched chatter ??

is this on first start up, as mine does it when its cold, howver the slightest tap to the accelerator brings the revs down, I believe its to warm the oil and engine up, mine idles around 1200, if not as Gambit said.

my bug was called Rex as it was a WRX, and my turbo 2000 is Michelle as shes mica blue

Probably with the distance not something I would do in the scoob more likely on my bike, always wanted to do Ace café.

Bonjour, I think it deserves a clean and then get some up loaded :P , if you need any help with modifications or are wanting info just post up :)

well I found a few things out at the weekend and rather than you having to wait 7hours and pay £80 I though I would help you all out. been to Donnington to watch British super bikes on Saturday and Sunday, car drove fine no problems, we parked up Near to an aerial mast (watch this space) and off we tootled to walk around the paddock and watch the races. As we was camping directly next door, we hopped in the car to drive to the camp site so we could take out the tent etc, my mates gf and my missus jumped out to sort to reservation and find where we where to park up, as it was quite a posh place I thought id knock the engine off so not to upset anyone. They came in eye sight so I thought I would start the car, suddenly all hell broke loose, Alarm was screeching the lights where flashing, this went on for 10-15 mins anyway the car was towed to the camp and still nothing. AA was called and attend and said the antenna in the distance was interfering with the fob/alarm, afer much pleading to Subaru it turns out they never had my pin and as such I was up **** creek without a paddle. the previous owner was rung but to no prevail, the aa man mentioned bypassing the alarm but it seemed like a load of hassel, a ditch effort to tow me 2 miles away and this still didn't work, as such I was plonked back in the original spot. AA recovery was rang and this cost me £80 to upgrade my membership so that I could have free towing, upon arriving home I found a spare fob tried it and boom car fired first time, ive done some digging around on various sites and have such reprogrammed a pin that A. I know, and B. I wont forget. As for the fob its totally fried. This has been found on another site and is no means my own findings however rather than spending 2hrs looking for the solution it is here for Future reference. :D Reprogramming Procedure Arm and then Disarm the system using the working Radio Key. Within 30 seconds of disarming, type into the keypad- *17856*91*2# where 2 is total number of radio keys to work the system Briefly press both radio keys in turn (the dash board LED will flash each time and the siren will bleep) Any radio keys not programmed here will no-longer operate the system. You should now be able to arm and disarm the system using all the radio keys programmed. When using the keypad always observe the following points: The PIN number should not be entered too quickly or too slowly - when a digit has been pressed the small LED built into the keypad will illuminate briefly as confirmation and only then should the next digit be entered. If an incorrect digit is pressed or the delay between entering digits exceeds 10 seconds, then the LED above the keypad will flash rapidly and the PIN attempt should be abborted and started again after 30 seconds. Due to the small size of the keypad some users may find a rubber tipped pencil easier to use. DO NOT use the sharp tip of a ball point pen etc, or press excessively hard on the keypad as this will only damage the membrane and cause a digit to remain pressed, causing a continual incorrect PIN. The keypad allows only THREE PIN attempts and then will “Lock Up” if an incorrect number is entered a third time. This is a security feature to prevent random PIN attempts disarming the system. Provided that you can disarm the system with a working Radio Key or the current PIN, then you can re-set the 4-digit PIN to one of your own choosing yourself, using the keypad, at any time. If you do not have the current PIN, then option A is your best solution. However if you do not have a working Radio Key, then you will have to use option B and obtain the systems PIN code from Subaru (UK). Your dealer can obtain this for you if you can provide proof of ownership and the alarm systems 16-digit serial number. A. Using a working Radio Key: - Arm and then Disarm the system using a working Radio Key. - Within 30 seconds of disarming, type into the keypad- *17856*92*wxyz*wxyz# (where wxyz is your new PIN code) - Arm the system with the Radio Key - You should now be able to disarm the system using the new PIN code B. Using the current PIN Code (if a working Radio Key is not available): - Arm and then Disarm the system using the current PIN - Within 30 seconds of disarming, type into the keypad- **abcd*92*wxyz*wxyz# (where abcd is your current PIN code and wxyz your new PIN code) - You should now be able to arm and disarm the system using the new PIN code When using the keypad always observe the following points: - The PIN number should not be entered too quickly or too slowly - when a digit has been pressed the small LED built into the keypad will illuminate briefly as confirmation and only then should the next digit be entered. - If an incorrect digit is pressed or the delay between entering digits exceeds10 seconds, then the LED above the keypad will flash rapidly and the PIN attempt should be abborted and started again after 30 seconds. - Due to the small size of the keypad some users may find a rubber tipped pencil easier to use. DO NOT use the sharp tip of a ball point pen etc, or press excessively hard on the keypad as this will only damage the membrane and cause a digit to remain pressed, causing a continual incorrect PIN. - The keypad allows only THREE PIN attempts and then will "Lock Up" if an incorrect number is entered a third time. This is a security feature to prevent random PIN attempts disarming the system. The lock up only lasts 30mins, so don't worry your not locked out of it for ever.

yeah ive spoken to martin and we will go for 8th of October if that's ok with every one 7:30 pm

Ok Meeting cancelled, ive no Subaru as have to get the Scooby sorted, I.e an Aerial mast tricked my Sigma alarm into thinking it had been stolen ;/

Welcome, Bonjour, Welkomen, Aloha
