Steering Wobble
I have had warped disk before and it did not make it wobble, you would feel warped disk when you brake in pedal movement up and down, i would say the wheels you have bought may have a bad wheel among them, try changing the front wheel with the back pair and see if it changes, if so then have them check some were that checks them for being straight.

Drivers Wing Mirror
what is the difference in uk and euro mirrors? Give this place a try http://www.adgespeed.co.uk/partssub.asp if you scroll down to bodypanels/light/glass section says they have them in £50,dont worry about colour if your cover is not broke as they just pop off so if wrong colour just change covers,would also ring them before you buy to make sure their right one you want.

Mobile Phone blocking in cars
they sould just up the fine to about £500 and if your caught 3 times using it in your hand you get a month in prison,may sound harsh but while the punishment is so little then people will carry on doing it.hands free is ok if it don't distract you from driving.think they wont get anywere with this anyway when car manufacturers are putting wifi and stuff in cars now.

Exhaust thoughts
@DDoc I have had a couple things from tarmacsport before, i have been looking at the Invidia Q300 with quad tips,little bit quieter then the N1 so still undecided yet what to get. if I do go for the N1 then it will be the street version as I have heard the N1 race is very loud.

project blue
well after using car with my gauges in the dash vents I just did not like how they was, they seamed a bit low, you had to look down to look at them, so I have moved them up to eye level,much happier with them now and I originally bought a single din radio to fit them their so I get to use the new radio as well now, not that I have it on much anyway unless mrs is in with me. what you think.

New insurance sorted
@Scoobyghost I am the same,i have been with same insurer for last 5 year basically because I don't like talking on the phone and thought wont be much difference in price,but decided to give it a try and Adrian flux came up a good couple hundred cheaper so for me was well worth it to change,makes me wonder how much I could have saved the last 5 year if I had shop't around.

08 impreza wrx hatch help required!!!!!!
Most people just think their like all other imprezas.with throtle body in middle of inlet manifold coming out the back.on the hatch wrx it uses same set up at a 07 forester xt the throtle body come out under inlet manifold and across to passenger side car.then intercooler sits straight on to turbo fastned with 2 bolts and a o ring.vf34 are ok for like bug blob n hawks,but would be a paint on a hatch unless he was fitting a front mount intercooler with custom pipe work,even then may have to make custom oil feed n stuff to fit,if he finds a vf52 from a 2.5 forester xt its a straight swap and his original intercooler will fit straight on to it,vf52 was also fitted to later wrx-s model in usa but not sure if it was fitted to uk version.its basiclly a vf39 but with a flange to bolt intercooler to it.the vf52 is a 320bhp rated turbo thats why i say mine is at its limit at minute,but allready have a plan for the summer to build engine and hit 400 like a guy i follow on youtube.

@Niko169 as @kershaw-330s says start with simple mods first,something like a cosworth panel filter or perrin,then look at exhausts,most people go with 3" piping on exhaust but 2.5" pipe is just as good and can cope with upto 350bhp with no problem I was told by cobra exhaust.you wont really see any power gains with the 2 mods until you have it remap't,i would think about upgrading fuel pump before a remap and do your research on who your going to let map it,dont just let anyone because they are close do it,as said a good 280 remap will be much better then a 300 bad remap,also if it done by a cowboy your just going get problems further down the road.you said the car has great servive history but I always give my cars a oil change as soon as I get them,good service history or not,use good oil and a genuine Subaru black oil filter,dont put crap supermarket fuel in it either,its not good for them,use shell vpower if theirs one near you,use crap oil and petrol then expect engine problems.i have just noticed your in Rotherham,if you fancy a drive I live in wombwell your welcome to drop by and give you some pointers.
