Problem when upgraded rear brakes on 2002 wrx
Hi mate welcome to S.O.C I've seen people do the Brembo upgrades and not had to do that before so shouldn't need to. I would give the contacts a bit of a clean on the ABS sensor and have a play around with it as long as it's not damaged should go away. It was definitely Pads and discs made to fit the Brembo brakes ? You could also try adjust the Pop out the rubber cap. Use a screwdriver to rotate the adjustment wheel and try to adjust the same amount on each side. You will have to experiment with which way to rotate the adjustment wheel. Do a small amount and pull up the hand brake to see if the brake catches. Repeat until the lever pulls up nicely. If you can't get enough adjustment that way, you will have to adjust the cable at the lever. Hope that helps :)

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUBARU-spray-paint-Lacquer-QUICKSILVER-262-/270636529523?pt=UK_Car_Accessories_Car_Care_Cleaning&hash=item3f0331b773 The spray nozzles are good too loads better than Halfrauds splatter cans. Just point out not sure if that is the matching colour. So don't go buying it without checking might have to send them your colour code. :)

Loads of places on on Ebay that paint mix I've used one a couple of times was spot on.

hi all
Hi mate welcome to S.O.C look forward to seeing the pictures. And about the turbo engine had a few people look into this before it's cheaper to buy the turbo WRX/STI in the long run. But I think if you could by a rear ended write off and can do it yourself could work as you have all the parts to swap. :)

Cambelt changes?
I won't go anywhere else for them jobs it's 158 mile round trip for me to use martin but worth it. http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/4658-5heffield-5ubaru-5ervice/ If it's close enough to you I'm going on that because you said Scooby Clinic. And from members on here I wouldn't recommend them.

Hi everyone!! new 330s problems already!!!
I would recommend these they did my engine rebuild and a bunch of other stuff. Scoobyworld Ltd Unit 2 Prince WIlliam Way Loughborough Leicestershire LE11 5DD http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/servicing.php But if going to sheffield or near there I'd give Martin a try at http://www.subaruservicingyorkshire.co.uk/ IMHO get a better service and he won't ever try to sell you anything you don't need.
