    Only just noticed this thread... any preference to screen size? http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/computing/laptops/laptops/acer-aspire-e5-475-14-laptop-grey-10157735-pdt.html Won't be the fastest thing in the world as it doesn't have an SSD but it does have 8GB RAM which is more than enough for everyday tasks and more. To get one with an SSD you would need to go for one with 4GB RAM and a lower spec CPU... and that would be more likely to cause overall slowness, not just boot up speed

    A breaker is probably your best choice... loads of folk break stuff on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BREAKING-SPARES-SUBARU-IMPREZA-WRX-STI-V7-GGB-BUGEYE-WAGON-FRONT-WIPER-MOTOR-/122334892412?hash=item1c7bba517c:g:yEcAAOSwopRYkMHs

    Pretty sure the hangers are in the newage config... the bend will be more significant in your existing back box as that one is designed for a jap style angled exit... pics of my exhaust:

    Going to do them yourself?

    Welcome to the club! Give it time... you will soon lust for boost :D

    Transmission type is your gearbox code... at least now you know what box you're looking for if you want to replace it.

    That sounds like a ballache...

    Creature comforts? What are those?
  10. Sandals
    Very nice! Mods?

    Maybe worth taking the switches out and check the connections... I think it's just one or two screws holding it in place

    Everyone has their own preferences! Not many performance garages around me unfortunately...

    My garage have mapped their fair share of Scoobys that's for sure! Everytime I go in there are at least 2 or 3 scoobies getting serviced or worked on

    Yeh the guys I use charge £100 an hour... so if all goes well and not many issues then it's not overly expensive. Highly reputable local garage to me... guy only does dyno mapping. Garage have always been good to me as well... can't fault them. Edit: Altho, unfortunately they no longer have the dyno... mapper and dyno have moved on! Will be Andy F for me when I eventually go for more power :D

    Mine cost me £230... did get a 20% discount as I filled in a cancellation at the last min :D

    It does sound like it's coming from the back but was unsure as it's obviously difficult to pin point from inside the car... Must be a coincidence then!

    So I've had bearing whine for a while, had the garage check it out back in September but they couldn't narrow it down as there was no play in any of the wheels. Now it is significantly worse so once I'm back from my holiday I'm gonna get it fixed. It started not long after my n/s front caliper siezed on so I assumed it would be that bearing. Noticed today that the noise goes away when i'm turning right, but remains when turning left. I would think that a bearing would stop being noisy when the load is reduced? It's entirely possible that it is another bearing and it was completely coincidental...

    Go old school and big :D

    Have to admit, that is my favourite shape of scooby.. good choice!
  20. Sandals
    That's good then, probably the easiest thing to do would be to source a 2nd hand box and swap it out
  21. Sandals
    Pretty sure they can... I have my old WRX scoop sitting in my garage since I swapped mine over to an STI scoop. So it's bigger than the older bug scoops but not quite as obnoxious as the STi scoops :D

    Welcome to the club! Would love to see some pics when you get it :D
  23. Sandals
    One hanger is for the back box... unsure about the centre pipe
  24. Sandals
    Are you able to jack up the car and see if you can find a gearbox code? Should be on the bell housing somewhere... Edit: Looks like it should be on your info plate in the engine bay?
  25. Sandals
    Absolutely! Redex is pretty good stuff... glad it's sorted :D
