LOSING POWER on NA with HKS Mushroom Install!!!
savage bulldogs replied to Momo's topic in General Subaru Chat
Momo ,At least your reliable sport made it to last year's japshow finale ..... A kayzar [emoji55] [emoji8] And this year you'd give stants a (1/4 mile) run for his money in his focarse [emoji23] -
It's about 2hrs drive for me so I normally drive up early sunday morning . Don't think I'd get away with a full weekend especially taking the daily driver with me .

Well we've got plenty of time to get the cars ready and bribe the other halves. I've already laid a patio and currently getting the driveway done ... So definitely deserve a bit of play time [emoji6] Would be nice to put a few faces to user names /scoobs , especially of the core active members [emoji41]

LOSING POWER on NA with HKS Mushroom Install!!!
savage bulldogs replied to Momo's topic in General Subaru Chat
Didn't know the pipes were crank case breathers as I've only seen a boxer na bay once (in the flesh) So yep don't completely block them off as the need to breathe, but don't let them suck in debris or moisture either . If your still gonna run the induction kit and can't fit the breather /pcv system back to oe , get a vta catch can plumbed in asap -
always good to welcome another seasoned scooby owner to s.o.c [emoji106] Don't forget to post up some pics [emoji6]

No idea what hubs they'd use on wrc cars but the newage sti r180 hubs ,bearings and driveshafts are the strongest 1's fitted to road scoobies -

Tbh I don't know much about the na boxer set up but generally na engines rely on back pressure. So big bore zorsts and induction kits can make you loose torque and power . As i haven't got a scooby do what those pipes are for ,I'd Probably start by bunging the leccy taped pipes with a suitable sized bolt and jubilee clip . Hopefully this will either cure the lack of power or rule the pipes out as the issue . -
I run a old skool Bailey's with a uprated piston spring on my classic with a fmic. I assume that you've got your current d.v fitted to the fmic pipework ? If so any of the "generic" fmic d.v will work even if its a different size . If you check the Dia of your fmic pipework dump valve "take off" . Then buy a silicone reducer, to suit that Dia and the new dump valve entrance Dia . Some where like a.s.h (auto silicone hoses) will probably have them on the shelf .[emoji6]

Nice choice 😎 Do like a clean early classic ,me . Any plans for it ?

Sure I spotted a alcatek for a v1 /v2 on 1 of the many scooby face book for sale pages over the weekend. Can't remember which 1 , so not much help tbh lol . but it might be worth chucking a "wanted post " on a couple of them , to see if 1 turns up . Bear in mind each of the ecus you've mentioned will require different software and leads to 're map . So check with your mapper to see what they've got ,just in case they don't deal with the 1 you choose .

Nice selection of scoobies by the look of the pics [emoji41] Although its quite a trek from suffolk , I fancied going to a all scooby event , so I'm Gutted I couldn't make it [emoji57] Result getting a trophy too , nice work aucky [emoji106]

Starting to get boost n burble withdrawal [emoji22] As im having my driveway block paved and took the scooby round to my in-laws on Saturday, too keep her outta harms way . The caddy has got 250flbs of dirty derv boost but somehow doesn't give me the same grin factor [emoji23] -
I'm hoping to get to japshow finale in October [emoji41] as I've been told by the wife i can't do the 1/4 mile until we've driven to Cornwall and back for our hols in August [emoji57]

Fuel lean @4500 rpm on boost
savage bulldogs replied to bigbeanbags's topic in Subaru Engines, Exhausts and modifications
Id imagine The mapper should have seen excessive knock while mapping and fuel being added via knock correction if the knock sensor is the issue -
noob with 96 wrx ecu question
savage bulldogs replied to Vivid89's topic in New Members Introductions
You can buy esl daughter boards direct from andy stevens @ enduring solutions limited . I know you didn't want a generic chip debate but my advice would be to use esl or a stand alone apexi then bespoke map . Due to the decat and fmic being already fitted , As the aggressive timing used by "chips" wouldn't allow for the changes if airflow caused by the mods and there's no way to adjust to compensate for the mods . -
I've got a "happy shopper " boot tidy which seemed to be ideal ..... Until I did the 1/4 mile at japshow and after 13 seconds of fun, i spent a good 15 mins putting all the bits back in my 150 pcs socket set 🤣

Braided lines are worth the money imo. As they firm up the peddle nicely ,as sandles and aucky said🖒

Have you checked rear dif and gearbox oil levels and condition ?

If its a non rusty ,genuine sti ra and the dccd 6 speed is in good order ,It's probably worth around that price . But a bit more info on why it's spares or repairs would help with the sale
