Yeah the Lancia Delta crazy car :D Stratos was equally nut's though :D I went off Evo's after driving an Evo 4 :( it's an ok car it was why I was looking at getting an evo I started to look at Scoobs and never looked back in my defence Haha. It's one thing I'm yet to full experience is a WRC rally seen some of the cars at Goodwood rally but not really a real rally event. problem is not a fan of the modern rally cars so been watching Higgins with ~subaru america on youtube :D only way I can get my fix ;)

Important question regarding buying a '97 Impreza GL 2.0
Don't have to tell me ;) Not sure what it's like over in your country but all Subaru drivers wave to each other if we see another one on the road :) And I too will wish you luck. But don't forget photo's if you buy it :D we do like to see people's cars :D

Oh nice and yeah thats one thing i'd look at doing with a lotto win is have myself a nice private rally car. Subaru of course ;) And I love lot's of cars but Subaru for a few reasons really grabs me. And I love the snow :) No chance of the missus being my co driver though she hates it when I do handbrake turns or drift it in the snow :D My earliest years of rallying memory wasn't the drivers it was cars like the Audi and Peugeot Toyota Lancia I remember watching them wanting to do it. Was huge Burns and McRae fans not just because they was both Subaru drives in their careers just liked the way they both drove. I was a fan of the Evos as well before I bought a Subaru But keep that to yourself lol

ECU reset
The Denso ECU’s (Newage) don't have a manual reset function like the JECS ones (classic). The Denso units apparently have a non-volatile RAM, so even disconnecting the battery won't do it. The only way to reset these ECUs is via the OBDII diagnostics port using a computer. Until recently this has only possible at the main dealer or using other commercial solutions e.g. Delta Dash or SECS. So in other words can't really be done without using the OBDII on our cars :(

It could be more prominent knock so it is possible they're giving you the issues :D might have even deteriorated one that bad it's come out :)

Cheers I nearly got a front end conversion for it to make it a hawkeye but I've had her that long now didn't feel right and not many bugs left. Well they keep getting broken for parts so won't be many left :( I've thought about getting a hawkeye too. But I keep hoping I'll win the lotto so I can send the bug to be fully resprayed engine rebuilt and retire her to the collection of about 6 subaru I have planned to buy along with a list of other cars :D And that's it it's pretty dangerous now though mate you been lured into the trap and it's difficult to get out :D I spent a long time on forums but not joining them but always loved the wave thing and the community of subaru owners well most of them, it does have some to$$ers :( but I'm yet to have been in any car culture that hasn't has a few. I've seen a few people they buy them and sell a few months later but I think you have experienced the Subaru love now :D Before you know it you'll be like me watch old footage of Colin McRae and Richard Burns on youtube with pure sound :D

My favourite is the Hawkeye. Well I like them all :D I think I like the bug because not many people do :D But I have always said if I could have only had the standard head lights I'd have sold it on long before now. My bug eye what it looks like now. Well has bigger profile tyres on than that picture is a bit of an older one. It's in the garage covered in dust and bird !Removed! at the minute :D
