down to last issue...
Had busy weekend working on small issues i was having- rattling heatshield- done 4 jubilee clips did job nicely changed droplinks as it was knocking - sorted now smooth as new car. changed oil + filter. my last issue still remains that freakin P0030 code. :( car seems to be running smooth except it only does 120 miles to full tank disconnected - battery and it stayed off for 20 min but came back while driving. managed to borrow multimeter of my mate and will try to sort it on thursday / friday. All i basically need is to make sure that it is the o2 sensor that needs changing ( worse case scenario ) or fuse, its just weather is really bad over here + im working silly shifts atm also there seem to be variance in prices of those sensors, found some on eurocarparts.com for like 80 quid ( bosch or denso ) do you think they will be good? ADL blueprint seems bit out of budget at 220 quid :(

going de cat

newbie seeks tuning advice
hi mate and welcome here, 260hp is a standard car. if you looking just for light mods then remap, air induction, exhaust would be first choices, just with these mods you should be getting closer to 300hp mark. Subarus would defo be a best choice :) i mean dont get me wrong all cars you said are great but subaru is a proper big boys toy :) second best choice is to join this forum and become part of 6star fraternity :) but whatever you go for enjoy :)

bushes diameter
can anyone suggest please what size of arb bushes i need? went to dealers today but they had none for my car- i know dealer right? and on fleabay im getting sizes of 17, 19, 20 or 22mm :/
-
happy days but...
yep will change them both front and rear ones, droplinks and bushes, but first i need to find what size are bushes and what type links as there seem to be awful lot of choice. but im on right track at least :) then better things to come- exhaust and wheels :)
-
happy days but...
no not at all haha i think must be them specs :) on the serious note- stants was curious whether i had arb and today i looked and hey ho what i see? arb :) with knackered bushes :) oh and car is gx sport 2004, i will post pics of interior at some point, as it has some bits which i havent seen in gxs before like bucket seats etc

found some bosch sensors on eurocarparts for like 66quid :) that sounds a lot better, but still no point in buying one and not knowing whether its the actual fault. but what i also found that heat shield started rattling today and it does my head in. weather is crap and im not off until monday and tuesday :( but overall im happy :)

spoken to local dealer and they said its 240 quid for sensor which im surely not paying , i will try to check fuses as gambit said, or source sensor from somewhere else :/ oh and that website is also like 169 quid :( wouldnt think they that costly. i dont mind going decat and deleting post cat sensor if that would be cheaper option

ok so bit of a update- got it scanned today and it came up with code P0030 Heater circuit, bank 1 sensor 1, but when i googled it it came up with rear sensor so i take its post cat ??? could someone clarify this for me please?
-
happy days but...
yeah its gx sport, i will check hopefully tomorrow, and its coming from more sort of underneath then top. cheers mate :)
-
happy days but...
im not sure mate but well could be, as i said its hard to track it in dark. but checked obvious and easiest things like given exhaust a shake, rocked every wheel and tried to press on each side, so i think you are right mate

happy days but...
ok so today i picked my new ride but she has couple of issues- first is the check engine light which is caused by o2 sensor, thats being sorted as we speak. second issue and i always seem to have it- there is a light knocking at from front end passenger side at low speeds. its not over big potholes or bumps but more irregular over smaller holes if that makes sense? it was already dark and raining so could not do much, i thought maybe droplinks? any ideas please?
