Hi n welcome Nice clean original looking classic you've got there [emoji106]

Who did the last plug change bud ? Second hand coilpacks are cheap enough about £50 for all 4 So it Does depend on the extent of the damage to the threads really , best of luck, fella

Blew the Spark "plug " out ? Or did it blow a boost hose off (cos they normally make a pop sound )

I had a hid kit on my classic which we're nice and bright but whilst it was off the road for about 8 months they keeled over [emoji53] So I had to switch back to h4 on the morning of the mot to get it passed . the first night run I did I realised that I missed the hid as the standard h4's were like candles [emoji33] The osram nightbreakers and led sidelights seem much better but if somebody does know a way of making h4 fitment bulbs a bit brighter still id be interested too

I'd imagine that the turbo timer would be wired into something to let it know how hot the engine is in order for it to adjust the duration it over runs for . If it's not running hot because its low on coolant , being driven hard ect .... I'd mabey try to disconnect the turbo timer and let it idle for a bit before switching it off .just to take it out of the equation until your running issue is resolved. What model is it joe ? uk , wrx ect

Yes stu as they don't draw much power [emoji6]

Yeah my 94 classic is running 6 speed gearbox/slave , reversed inlet manifold and front mount intercooler so will look a bit different [emoji6] But the return spring should still be attached to the clutch fork and a bracket near the bellhousing .(by all means chuck a pic up anyways) I dried the slave and flexible feed pipe and drove it for a day . I then found that it was the flexi pipe leaking rather than a issue with the slave . I had a spare slave and flexi pipe so fitted them both and blead the system /changed the fluid .... done about 500 miles since without any issues [emoji106]

Says they come with fitting kits and oil and water sensors but I'd imagine that you would still need to buy the bung with a hole in it to fit the oil temp sensor they supply. as it's a subaru specific part made to locate the oil temp sensor above cylinder number 3 (hottest cylinder next to the turbo) most kits are for a wider range of makes so I had to buy "stants" kit just for the brass bung with a threaded hole in it, see when they turn up . you could always start off with the easier boost gauge and sort the power , earth , lights and fit the pod while waiting for other bits if they're not in your kit [emoji6]

It's a bit dark so sorry for the pic quality but you can just see the spring attached between the fork and little grey bracket, which will be under the throttle body /tmic on yours .

Have you got a link to the exact one's you bought stu ? If it's electronic like my depo 4 in 1 the sensor end is fairly easy Oil pressure is the black plug at the front which fits in place of the oe sender Oil temp is the white wire at the rear left ,make sure the area around the bung is clean before removing original bung (you don't want !Removed! dropping in the oilway above cylinder 3) fit the brass "ferrule" (nut with the hole in stants kit) and then screw the oil temp sender into the ferrule . Make sure you do it in that order as the sender hole in the ferrule is sometimes tapered to aid a seal Boost just needs vacuum and you've probably got a blanked take off on the inlet . If you haven't got a spare take off ,Have a look at vacuum hose kits on ebay as they're not to expensive and include a few t pieces and various size hoses . Inside just earth , ignition live and light exciter most of which can be taken from the clock,like stants said 

Although I'm not 100% I think that the only major difference in engine parameters between the ppp wrx and standard wrx is the sports cat ,which would allow the gasses to escape quicker . Cams , injector size and turbo remain the same. Maybe once it's fitted stay off (hard) boost until you've had a chance to run the car on a dyno (about £ 50 for a power run/map check) for piece of mind before "giving it the beans" while running a different map [emoji6]

Sorry stu I thought I mentioned face book pages[emoji39] It's a closed group on Facebook called "sell yor subaru& parts uk " so the link probably won't work unless you're already a member https://m.facebook.com/groups/493405154066320?view=permalink&id=795810397159126&refid=18&ref=bookmark Don't know any history about the seller or the turbo , just that it looks genuine and was £60 posted

Saw one £60 posted on one (of the many) "sell your subaru parts uk" pages this morning stu [emoji6]

Hi n welcome to soc joe Have you tried a self ecu code check ? http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/2366-manually-reading-ecu-codes/ although it does sound like either ... Idle control valve Maff air leak Or a misfire A code check might pin point the problem or at least narrow it down [emoji6]

I think you can get a complete rear quarter imported, quite expensive though [emoji53] I've seen a few people ask and other than fabricating new ones from scratch , I have read that a section from the front wings can be used as they're the same profile as the rear arch . But I've never offered a wing up to my classic arches so am not speaking from experience. I just cheated and used a clean jdm shell to reshell my uk classic [emoji55]

Used the same method to blead mine when i switched clutch slave cylinder and hydraulic pipe a couple of months ago . I did have the blead pipe submerged in a jar of fluid though . Have you put the return spring back on that attaches to the top of the fork ?

There's a bit of a shortage of 4wd rolling roads in Suffolk so I normally use clive attowes in norfolk . http://www.enginetuning.net/ Once you've got passed the lack of cat /mot scenario it might be worth running it on the dyno at clives just to make sure it's running right with the change of fuel . I have heard of cob tuning but don't know anything about it I'm afraid and I'm unsure if attowe deals in it . If the dyno shows a afr problem could you show your tuner the data would he be able to " tweek" the map over the Internet?

Sorry to hear about the problems at the beginning, but at least the end results look well worth it (nice work) [emoji106]

Yeah I get the same scenario with the silence followed with the "think of the fuel " moan lol Haven't done anything to the scoob as it's far too cold n wet out there for my liking . I have been toying with the idea of making it look a bit more standard on the outside and converting it back to preface . I've just got two binders off my brv which are full of history for the 20yr old wrx sti .... Shame most of it's in Japanese [emoji15] But at least there's a few pics to go by [emoji6]

I've heard nothing but good feed back about the quality from all perrin stuff (although they aren't cheap ) I'm just running a cheap catch can as I couldn't be arsed to fit a return to sump used with a oil separator . So just I'll just have to drain it off and keep a eye on the oil level instead

Lovely looking preface classic [emoji106] What version rear spoiler is that bud ? As I want one that doesn't obscure the view of the upset faces I overtake behind me, quite as much as the replica ironing board I've got on my v1 sti atm

Well the road angel is "out of subscription" but still warns you about static cameras , accident black spots and possible mobile speed gun locations. As well as displaying direction(north , south ect) and speed . I've got a lot of things to concentrate on other than just driving ,so the verbal warnings were useful but slightly annoying (bit like the wife sat next to me) I'll leave it plugged in for now and see how I get on Not the best pic but you can get the jist

The super pro droplinks will be with you Thursday at the latest stants [emoji6]

Yeah they have to have sharp brakes ...... sharper the better for tailgating [emoji6]

Sound's like a actuator/wastegate fault , rattling and not spooling . Don't forget to stick your arm out of the window when turning right in the audi .... As we all know that they don't have indicators fitted as standard [emoji4]
