Headlight tinting
I know we had a guy on here that will do them for you at a price but seen a lot of people doing the fly eye thing now and it's legal. Doesn't look to bad from what I seen on cars, might be worth a look.

I've had that problem with a few cars now not being able to get them on the ramps. one was that low when I had a flat tyre I had to drive it up loads of logs and wood to just to take the wheel off as I couldn't get the low jack I have under it :D

I don't mate sorry. Have you tried any of the local breakers yards might get lucky. I have a list of a few on here and keep meaning to email one to see if he would pop on to help with parts.

ECU replacement
As said above I wouldn't without some upgrades to match. I know I was surprised when a member came on here a couple of years back when the club was a baby and said he had just swapped the ecu over with a prodrive I honestly didn't think it would have worked but said it runs fine. Didn't see him again after that so not sure what happened after running it over a period of time.

2003 Forester Tyres
Mine was for the MOT and because the profiles 225 35's 18 the 35's are about £30 to £40 more than 40's but I didn't know that at the time so just paid for it and 6 months tax as it had ran out of tax so that was added on the price :)

Hi everyone!! new 330s problems already!!!
Scooby clinic doesn't get a good review by a few on here that have been there always charging for jobs that didn't need doing and so on :( I'm not sure about testing them myself to be fair and couldn't tell you if Scoobyworld can test them but be worth ringing them I guess.

Ouch 2 years work gone in 6 months. So this time next year then you will be pushing it for the 400 mark ;) Next thing I need disc brakes and pads all round been eyeing some nice brembo ones up. I would have thought Kevlar pads would have been good did they just heat up too quick then and fade away under heavy braking I would have thought they would have dealt with the heat better than anything else other than racing brake pads

Hi everyone!! new 330s problems already!!!
These did my engine rebuild and remap and other stuff about 8 years ago and I thought they was spot on they should be able to check it for you http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/contacts.php?osCsid=4cf5e20f7d497e238390074b7e6a0fbe Or will have there own people that can. Not the cheapest place but only one I know local to you.

Big thanks and progress
Oh I thought it was more than that wasn't far off just a few 100 and who cares about numbers anyway :D I said something a bit similar. It went along the lines of. " I'm happy with the car as it is it's fast enough standard I tuned my last car I'm not doing it again" :D I know why I thought it was 500+ because of them Videos you posted or pictures of your mates :) And it does look nice mate hopefully will serve you well now for the distant future, other than upgrades hopefully no more big costly bills. And it's fine I did have to look twice at the sig. And I don't mind mate :)

Need help please
Exactly why myself and many others don't use it. I have a few people on there that I keep in contact and I will pop on for a browse but thats it. It's a shame it's only really just a majority of the members but from speaking with other Scoobie owners their not doing it's reputation any good :( And cheers Martin appreciate the help mate :)
-
Big thanks and progress
I find it's the best way I would let Tlag work on mine from on here and Martin from Sheffield Subaru Services and a handful of others. I worry when I have to have new tyres or balancing done just because I don't know them mainly :D
