Nice think best off you printing them pfft £35 :(

Check them all mate around the TMIC and at the front just all the air pipes really :)

F1 I have Live links in HD if I want and I do pay for NOW TV for the movies :D

Well I think I'm going to get one of those capture cards soon be easier than messing about trying to get 30 seconds at a time and upload to Forza. So think I'm going to get one that will let me do the Xbox one so be no escape from anything humiliating :D

Not a fan of Sky myself but may take up Pete's offer one day just because it is a good deal. But I knew I wasn't getting up at 6am to watch it either and have recorded the highlights that was on BBC HD at 1400

Well Xbox ones had a small price drop :) so maybe worth getting some pennies saved up. And get Titanfalls with it the game is well fun. And I'm the same I think I will end up having it just because I do like Skyrim :)

Never too early for a BBQ ;) And I have to say I do like the Summertime :) I don't mind Audi's it's the !Removed! that drive them that do my head in :D

Looks good mate a job well done :) Did you have to pay for them ?

NGK Iridium is what I have been using and think they are good for my needs. And the Cel doesn't always come on with the MAF well didn't with me for whatever reason check for the split pipes too it's free ;)

Yeah I've always moaned about that with wow £8.99 a month and more so now the game is outdated and so old one of the reason's I've stopped playing it. But I might give Elder scroll a bash. Just not sure if to go PC or Xbox one with it though if I do.

Typical symptoms of a blown headgasket MAY include: -Bubbles of air coming up into your radiator (remove cap before starting) AND WHEN ENGINE COLD NEVER OPEN RAD CAP WHEN ENGINE HOT AS YOU WILL GET SCALDED run the engine they should be no air bubbles showing in the filler tank -leaking radiator -milkshake colored oil -overheating -rough running -coolant in oil- or oil in coolant -spark plug(s) that have a green tint (if green coolant). -white colored or sweet smelling exhaust. I emphasize "may" include one or more of these symptoms. A blown head gasget can go out in different areas causing differnt symptoms. There's no straight simple answer to this question. There's lots of clues you can look for. When in doubt and you have tried everthing, pull the head have the head checked out by a well established specialist first to see if the head was the proplem. This way you're not wasting your time replacing the gasket. Sometimes a blown head gasket will cause a whistling or wheezing sound,but not always.It will not always cause coolant to enter the oil,or oil to enter the coolant,but they are signs to look for.Overheating will almost always occur,Check your overflow bottle for exhaust smells. Does the car idle rougher than normal? Another clue: turn on the heater; often when the head gasket is blown an odour of coolant and synthetic rubber will emanate from the heater vents. Many of the symptoms of blown head gasket can be caused by some other problem in the cooling system, without the head gasket being damaged. Convesely, other problems with the cooling system can cause a blown head gasket and/or warped head. For example, a corroding radiator filler tank can send chunks of rust through the cooling system which take out the thermostat and water pump. If the thermostat is old, sticking and corroding, it can send those chunks through the system and take out the water pump or cause a blockage in the radiator, etc. Radiator leaks can be the primary cause, or a result, of failures in other cooling system components. Don't keep driving with the car overheated! Especially if your engine has an aluminum head, you are likely to warp it. If it is warped beyond a certain tolerance, it cannot be planed and will have to be replaced when the head gasket is replaced. There are a few simple indicators you can check for with the engine cold and not running. 1. contaminated oil, it will have a milky appearance from the coolant mixing in the oil. 2. oil on the top of the coolant inside the radiator. Having these symptoms is not always indicitaive of a blown head gasket and usually if the gastket is gone there is going to be some warping of the head and or block of the engine. There are a few other things that can give similar symptoms to the ones listed above 1. internal damage to coolant/oil galleries 2. damage to oil/coolant intercoolers if fitted 3. weakened hoses on the cooling system can cause pulsations in the coolant 4. leaking valve seals may drop oil into the chambers 5. poorly bleed cooling systems or systems where there are high loops in the coolant jacket may have some bubbling. Visual inspection of the head and gasket, involving major engine disassembly. NOTES: You can only truly confirm your suspicion by actually seeing the gasket, although precursor signs are usually evident. 1) Check your oil. If the oil on the dipstick looks like chocolate milk, then there's coolant in it, and this is the surest sign of a blown head gasket or a cracked engine block. 2) Check your radiator coolant. If it looks brownish and foamy, that usually means there's oil in your cooling system, which is another sign that a severe breakdown has occurred. 3) Visually inspect the engine for leakages of an oil/coolant mix. 4) Loss of engine coolant with no external leaks, a continuous stream of bubbles can be seen with the radiator cap off, white smoke coming from your exhaust when engine fully warmed up, and the sweet smell of coolant from exhaust. All spells signs of a head gasket blown or very close to it and SHOULD get it seen to ASAP as you will further damage your engine........... a Mechanic can find a HEAD GASKET FAILURE by a ''Sniff Test'' commonly known this is like a big eye dropper with a chemical liquid in it and it changes when mixes with coolant and that will tell you if an Internal Leak is occurring and Hydrocarbons found in mix next is a ''Compression Test'' that will tell you to And I would say a TD04 turbo should be able to do 280bhp along with change the panel filter to a good quality one like K&N maybe, a decat exhaust and fuel pump and a ECU Map. As for the cost depends how you source the parts :)

:D not at the minute ;) Well it is low compared to cars of today but they are over 10 years old now my 300BHP car is a 2001 you can soon tune them :)

Thats no problem mate I understand people's concerns when buying a car and more so with an Impreza. Not something you can just rush out to buy. And that question is only the 2nd time I have been asked that ever :D I would say you would have to be on the world's biggest High G corner there should be enough oil in the car to cover so I would say it's a false claim unless there wasn't enough in the car. I've been on a few track days as many others have on here and never had a problem. But if worried about it you can get parts that help the oil.

About 261 I have two WRX's in the garage so don't let it put you off ones 300BHP and the other one is a bit newer and about 226 standard apart from a bigger exhaust and a few little things. I might go STI next but I'm more than happy with the WRX I've modified it to it's full potential and it put's a smile on my face still :)

Nothing to be concerned about if it's been looked after. Have many members here with 100K+ engines. But if it's been thrashed from cold not had regular oil changes or left to empty it's oil will have problem I'd almost put money on it.

STI has a better engine for tuning past the 350BHP and comes out the box with some extra goodies like suspension. The WRX Buyeye standard is about 216BHP But can push past that if you wanted with some modifications.

Well I was going to ask for no spoilers as to who won but seen it already now :( will still watch the highlights. But massive Congratulations to the Turtle beating the Hare to 1st place is not easy :D

Bit of copper grease or some new sliders might help. :) But at least it wasn't anything big :)

Hi mate welcome to S.O.C Unfortunately had a few members that have had that and one had just had the engine build by the guy who had bought the car from but he had no experience in building Subaru engines :( But if we can help or you have any question please feel free to ask :)

Haha that made me laugh Just thumb up at the end ;) But good video was that with the Gopro quality was good. and the product look spot on I've used the Auto Glym and Mer but still took some scrubbing to get them clean

Should have said mate I have one :D

Yeah seen you had put in a massive shift Does look good just not sure I could put that time in :) I'm really liking Titanfalls I didn't know it was done from the people who did the 1st Call of duty games the better ones if you ask me. But once you get into it it is good be good laugh if a few of us jump on in private chat just for giggles. But I was more surprised how easy it is to play I thought with all the jumping and wall running it would be rock hard, but it is easy. I have had a few moments with me shooting at someone and them just turn around and shoot me dead so not sure whats with that lag or I'm just bad at shooting with a controller but well worth playing IMO

You're like a Dog with a bone ;) but kleep it up I love seeing the cars and looking forward to getting the replays done :D

Haha OCD at it's finest to be fair I didn't notice it until you pointed it out but I was admiring the rest of the engine :)

Nice little project that mate. And I agree I like to see the repaired ones being done, soon won't see many classics :( And if you have a look Savage has put a few parts in the sales section that might also interest you. Anyway keep it up look forward to seeing this one bling again :)
