Replacement seats for WRX
I've been thinking about swapping my standard black 2004 seats with others. Been considering STI and World Rally. Has anyone done it and how did you find the new seats for comfort and look?

Squeaking seat belts - how to 'lube' them
Ah no. I've sorted mine....you pull off the plastic guard (running from floor up to the seatbelt holder) and then shave off a plastic bar inside it that the seatbelt rubs against. Let me try and find a link. It took me 5 minutes to do

Very poor performance in damp conditions - Noob help
My 2004 WRX has 214/45 R17 as standard. I did have a bug GX and that had 16's. Can't remember the other dimensions I've heard of people putting 225's on and R18 on a WRX but not 245's....and certainly not on a GX

Back from an awesome holiday
I did a similar trip a few years ago and loved it. We did (Vegas, Zion, Bryce, Grand C, Yosemite, San Fran, all the way down the coast to Monteray then LA). I'm a big fan of Fast N Loud. Love that show did you see any of the people in the bar or area? I love that huge dufus of a mechanic...is it Tom? Doesn't seem to be in the new series :(

Clunking on full lock?..
I had the exact same symptoms. Turned out to be the belt. A few of the teeth on the belt were worn so it would't grip on occasion.

What is your budget? Cost of WRX vs STI is quite significant.

Under body cleaning ?
Remember Marks mate Joe in Redhill. He has a car lift he's happy for people to use for £10. I did the underside of my car round his...although that was using Waxoil paint and not the guely spray...I didn't want to take the pee and ruin his floor lol

What have you done to your Subaru today ?

Daft Question Alert! WRX or Sport?
The v5 doc will tell you it's a WRX too. Just hit 3,500 rpm and if you don't get a big grin on your face then it's NA. There are loads of differences but you can change suspension, bonnet, badges etc

Bit more power
Well I don't think £1k is alot so upgrade fuel pump, air filter and a remap [emoji16]

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Good luck mate. Speedy recovery

Looking for an Impreza R
I think that approach is great. Me personally I wouldn't bother pimping it out and save that money for your next car but your choice. Your insurance company might not like you dressing it up like a WRX as it would make it more desirable. Have you got some quotes yet? Worth getting some via go compare or one of the other aggregators before you start looking (unless you're loaded)
-
Looking for an Impreza R
How old are you mate? I'd wonder whether it's worth spending all the money pimping or worth you waiting a few years and buying the real thing. I've met a number of under 25's with WRXs

All the turbos are fast. The new age (bug/blob) are more refined to drive. STI are a better base for performance tuning if that's what you are after. They will be more to service, insure Etc too. With the classics you do need to watch out for rust. Insurance will depend on post code, mileage, the excess your willing to accept etc. why don't you type your details into go compare and see what you get back.

cool. Did you ask how he came about it and what he's intending to do with it?

Finally own an Impreza! Oh and I'm new :D
Oh no mate. I was talking about detango, so removing the Orange and if you want black them a bit so they look more modern and moody. I didn't black mine but this is what I mean....

[emoji3] One thing I'd say about headlights is make sure you use sealant when you close them back up, the guides just say reheat the old sealant but that didn't do it for me and I ended up with condensation when I cleaned the car. So I had to take it apart again, dry it out and reseal it properly
