Agree - welding is way to go - was thinking the spark erosion approach of 'burning' the bolt head away would be too much for the surrounding alloy casing Misunderstood you mate,thinkin you mean sparks from welder.you could bur it off if your go steady n just was it off bit at a time,alloy dont burn like metal it will just go white hot but could loose its strengh.

No sparks jay if you tig weld it Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

if the bolt head is rounded off you could get someone with a welder to weld a bar to bolt so you can turn it,comes straight off then,done it load with seized bolts on my capri,just buy new bolt then and use anti seize when fitting the new bolt.

hi guys, so I was just wondering if you had a Scooby hawk 2.5 or after and engine went and you put a 2.L engine in it and told dvla, would the tax go down or would it still be the high tax band,just wondering

will be watching this one

My gauges read about same.then when warm and drivin my oil pressure goes up to about 6 bar,8 when first start up from cold. Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

Have you found the problem to this yet mate. Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

Thanks thats good to no as i need a passenger side one for my wrx and was thinkin to upgrade to sti with indicators in them,so will make sure i but a pair together n not from diffrent places. Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

Yeah good point that.i will try them with my regualar paint [emoji6] Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk

yep mine was doing the same,you may be able to tighten it a bit more,i did,it stop't it for about 3 more weeks till I fitted new belt,got my belt from tarmacsport not cheapest belt but worth it now its steering right.

anyone no a good machine shop, engineering place with a mill that could re drill some lug nut holes into a alloy wheel, preferably in south Yorkshire.

yeah that what I had read and my wrx has been upgraded to a vf52 so was wondering if it had come from a uk wrx-s or had been inported from states or something.those intercoolers are pretty crap,remember first time I removed my top mount I nearly pulled end off when I was wrestling it off throttle body hose,have to be fairly gentle with them.

were all still learning things mate and am no expert on them either just stuff I have read like this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowoff_valve and stuff I have been told or even watched on you tube.good choice that as if I was going to change back to a top mount I was going to go with a verticooler but puts me off having to import from America,so my plan was I was going to fab my own design one up and even maybe sell them,grimmspeed do a good top mount for the wrx and wrx-s as well,i follow a guy on youtube with the verticooler on a 400bhp wrx hatch so their good coolers,but we will see what I do when weather gets better and I can get back out side and get fabbin again oh and I forgot to say on my last post yes I still have the maf fitted on my car.so you have a turbo that bolts straight to the intercooler then like mine,do you no what turbo it is?

that is correct, in full reserc then their is no lag as don't have the valve releasing all the pressure each time I change gear,their is about 2 1/2 metre of 3"inch pipe with a front mount so you want to keep pressure up,you really want to keep pressure up with a top mount also,thats why oem are reserc and not vent to atmosphere.vent to atmosphere are just to give you the silly woosh noise,their is no performance gains from having it,dont see rally teams venting to atmosphere,a dump valve is basically a safety valve nothing more just to keep pressure right but people I think firstly in japan started fitting vent atmosphere for shows and then everyone wanted the noise,your car is the wrx-s don't they have the big sti intercooler fitted to them,if so I wouldn't bother with a front mount unless your going 400bhp plus,your intercooler is good for 350bhp I read,my wrx topmount interccoler are tiny crap things,mine was already fitted to car when I got it but I can tell you if you do decide to go front mount,either get custom made so can have piping as short as possible and also don't buy the perrin or other other priced intercoolers as the cheaper ebay 1's do the job just as good and cost quarter the price.

I have the gfb responce on my hatch fitted to my frontmount,if i have it fully vent to atmosphere then can feel the lag if you floor it,if i have it full recerc then i get the flutter noise from the turbo but car power is their straight away.on a top mount you wouldnt feel the diffrence as much as with frontmount lettin pressure out all that piping,i also had a gfb on a blob with top mount and car hated it just wouldnt run right so i went back to a oem sti recer valve with that and it made car 100% better.on the hatch i have it just open so its not very loud when venting and dont get back pressure and keeps enough pressure to stop lag.gfb is not a cheap blowoff valve but it is a good one just have to set it up to how car likes it and how you like the sound.

hi guys,my 08 hatch headlights have a couple scratchs on lens's so I am going to refurb them,i have also noticed one inside is not looking so good,the lenses I have no problem doing,what I was wanting to no is when I repaint the inside panel do I need to use high temp paint or just normal car paint do the job,i have read on internet normal car paint is ok,but I have also read that projectors will need high temp paint

some right doggy F**kers about in their
