Coming Monday.It was sent wrong by hermes to big an item so has to come in a transit van

Just bought some Cusco Coilovers should be getting fitted this week

Ive got my front mount intercooler kit on the way and now im looking for a decent induction kit for the beast.Something that will fit in my inner wing out of the way of the heat.Does anyone have such a thing second hand they want to sell or no where I can get one

I was thinking of a ET35 set up Adam.Ive seen a set up on a Forester with an ET35 and it looks well

I don't mind these tyres on the wheels im looking at are shagged anyway.But do all 5 stud Subaru wheels from the wrx,sti,brz etc fit the forester.

Im looking at other wheels from the Subaru range and ive come across a set saying 5x100.What is the 200 forester set up like then is it 5x100 also?

Ive just bought a front mount kit

Im after a set to fit the forester.Im in no rush im after the right

I just tightened it up tight enough with a rachet spanner

Got the impreza pitch mount fitted the other night.The bracket for the pitch mount required a little fetling for it to sit in place.How ever I can report it does a fvking great job.There is no engine movement or NVH so a good result all round.

Ive got my eye on a kit.A treat for Christmas.Also I fitted that pitch mount and there is no vibration whats so ever.Engine is solid and feels great.

Seems expensive Adam lol.

Im toying with the idea of a front mount lol

Check to see if you have the alloy looking wishbones if you do you will be fine if not they will be black in colour..If you have trouble finding the sti anti roll bar white line do a nice kit and they may fit the black wishbones

if your gonna upgrade to better anti roll bars go for the thicker sti items

Gearboxes on the import versions are dead heavy compared to the uk ones

Ive also cleaned out my boost control soloneid as its never been done since ive owned it

You don't drive with your foot over the clutch do you?Other that than could be a sticking pressure plate give it a good nailing to see if it sorts it out.

Sounds like a paddle clutch to me mate.I have one in mine a 6 puk and to be honest I think there ok to use.Took a few days getting used to it though lol.My missus uses it as the daily runner as well ;)

Something like this design http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Subaru-Gold-Alloy-17-Inch-Wiv-Good-215-45-17-Tyre-/251698314166?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Rims_Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item3a9a637bb6

Best place to start is them wheels I thought something wasn't right about the tyres there to wide.Id still look for the std Subaru rims though

I will do.It wont be here now to middle of next week.Ive got solid mounts and gearbox mount and now the pitch mount is showing as weak so when I back off the gas there is a bit of vibration.So this will sort it out and make my car strong.My engine doesn't shake no more either

Ive just ordered one of these in blue http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/370817791511?_trksid=p2059210.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

My engine mounts only took me 45 mins to to and gearbox mount roughly half hour

Seems ok.How much work do these mounts do.Do they do a lot of work or does the rear mount take the brunt of the weight
