thinking of buying a forester
You wont go wrong with a Fozzy.I enjoy mine when the missus isn't in it lol.Subaru has to have been the best car ive owned and isn't expensive to maintain in my opinion.Give it a while and I think Fozzys of the first and second generation turbos will go up in value as it stands now there isn't many about

awd turbo
If its been off the road for a while first thing i would do is give it a stage 0 tune.That consists of oil and oil filter,new plugs and leads some fresh fuel and fuel filter,change air filter check tyre pressures and condition of brake pads and discs.Once done drive it on the road and if the problem is there you can rule out the stage 0 tune then move on from there.

a few pics of my project so far
My current coolant bottle gets in the way of my front mount pipe work making more bends to get around the bottle.I missed the post man this morning so the coolant bottle will be here Monday now.I want to shorten the pipe work as much as possible and use as less silicone hoses as possible on it so when I boosting the hoses don't get sucked flat lol

Wheel bearing problem again!
The sound sort of throws you into thinking its the other side.Ive not had time to get the car on a set of ramps at work due to being busy.I carnt see a brand new bearing failing so it must be the passenger side.

Harvey Headers
I hear a lot about the Harvey headers a lot of people seem to fit them.Are there any gains from having them or is it just a name.Also is the up pipe separate from the headers or is it all one system.
