Pump is still on the v3 uk shell which was my daily for 3yrs , so works fine fella but the last thing I posted ended up smashed to bits and post office wouldn't pay me any insurance money cos apparently car parts aren't insurable [emoji57] I've heard that the early pumps are prone to leaking but the only leak I get on my v1 is a slight weap from the lid . I'm unsure if you'd need the v3 onwards ps fluid cooling pipe (sits at the top of the rad) or whether the v1 /v2 "loop" pipe is long enough to reach the pipe on top of the v3 onwards set up (cos the pipe comes off the top at a different angle . V3 onwards with the cooling pipe over the rad My v1 with the "loop" cooling pipe

Got a p.s pump as well to fit v3 (my 97) onwards as the earlier v1/v2 ones are different . £25 collected from Suffolk

I've got one £30 collected from Suffolk . It needs a coat of paint due to being pepperd with stone chips but it isn't cracked and has all the mounting brackets in situ

I think borla make headers for na scoobs

Have you tried Unplugging and checking for corrosion on the big grey plugs at either end of the engine loom , same with the engine to inlet and bodywork earths . Do you not know anyone local with a compatible scoob that you can switch a few bits over to try and eliminate the issue . Not wanting to contradict your pal but I have known at least 3 knock sensor failures admittedly they've all been newage

I did wonder what you were up too but it makes sense now lol . I was a bit concerned about using a silicone elbow when I modded the fmic pipework for the reversed inlet . Cos even though its positioned after the turbo and has positive boost (won't suck flat) I thought it might "swell" too much causing a bit of lag . So I've pushed the hard pipes right into the elbow as far as possible and it didn't seem to "balloon" at all when on full chat (1.58 bar) on the dyno [emoji6]

I know that some of the auto legacys can be mapped and even the gear changes improve through esl . So can't see why the newer ones can't be but will admit I don't know much about newage mapping options So

Will you be doing all the work yourself ? Mine sets me back about 7k so far but I'd say I need about another 3k to tidy the paintwork and buy/map in a bigger turbo . Which would make it mint with 400+hp I'd try to find a jdm classic with a knocking engine and use it's shell as a base car . they do tend to be much cleaner than the salty underbelly of our uk's especially if recently imported (in the last 5yrs)

Closed deck blocks were only in the 93/94 imprezas from the factory so you'll probably have to source the "cdb" separately. What sort of budget and power figures are you aiming for fella ?

Do you mean the newage sti 6 speed box ? What version /year is your uk turbo ? As only certain year heads are compatible with certain inlet/fuel rail set ups .

I'm gonna blame tapatalk fookin with the menus "again" during the latest update [emoji55] Lol

My 94 sti running 330 + with a Uk ratio 6 speed gets about 28 on a run (keeping it under 3k) 25 average But 10 mins of "giving it the beans" and she will happily empty a quarter of a tank of shells finest

That looks like a recirculation valve off a classic v3/v4 impreza

Nice work so far fella [emoji106] Good point with the modine, I just had mine chucked into the engineers hot wash a few times but it was running fine when I pulled it apart [emoji15] [emoji5] Are you giving it a refresh or fitting some upgrades on re assembly ? Best of luck adam and keep us posted bud [emoji106]

Harvey (rip) new his stuff when it comes to headers and upipes . I've heard nothing but positive feedback saying that they lessen spool time . Best get the headers and a upipe that suits your needs . As they'll know what dia upipe will suit your turbo best

Not quite sure if they do the same style but I was well impressed with the quality and fitment of my p1 replica splitter I bought from them 3yrs ago http://www.htautos.co.uk/?product=subaru-impreza-sti-wrx-bugeye-front-splitter-01-02

Here's a pic of the one by the battery The small bore pipe at the bottom connects to a metal pipe that runs along the top of the rad to the header tank (attached to the inlet manifold) There's a bigger bore pipe at the back of the little expansion bottle that goes to the tank in the inner wing .

Just the little bottle rick I'm working on the scoob tomorrow I'll take a couple of better pics if you want

Maybe check the plug for corrosion and the insulation is intact on the wiring , as that area does get weathered and is close to the heat from the headers

Try a classic self code check and reset the ecu then see what codes the ecu is giving afterwards, there's a thread on here somewhere with a list of codes.

Watching this thread quite eagerly as I like something a bit different and need a bigger turbo next year [emoji5] Did you say you had a graph of a holset on a 2ltr ? What about getting your block "pinned" not sure about the cost but do know it's supposed to make them more reliable

Hi n welccome Always fancied either a white or grey classic (ended up with 2 silver ones) good luck with the search[emoji106] Working on gearboxes is a bit like witchcraft in my eyes, so i might have to pick your brains at some point[emoji5] Sounds like you know your way around a scoob but there's a buyers guide on here and dont forget the pics once you find one

I don't know 100% if the wrx calipers and discs will fit if the pcd is the same I would've thought so . On the classics when you upgrade from front 2 pots to front 4 pots you have to use 4 pot discs (bigger dia) and pads(different shape)

Happy days [emoji1] nice work fella [emoji106] Tell the mrs milk is much cheaper in Glasgow and get those "miss daisy" running in miles over and done with sharpish [emoji5]

Yeah it's all been mapped in [emoji6] Just thought I'd remove the oe sensor the other day to neaten up the bay a bit ..... Only boosted to actuated pressure (0.5bar) so I refitted it and I'm back to 1.5 bar again . Have a squint at my v1sti build thread on here if you get bored on your lunch break [emoji4]
