  1. have you tried JCT subaru specialist at rotherham they have a silver hawk sti in at min,i have bought 2 cars from them in past,gets some nice cars in.
  2. no mirrors about,i am looking for a passenger side one.all same mirror mate 1.5,wrx,but sti have a indicator in it as well.
  3. Ok so today i decided am going to use my custom steering wheel on my car but i want to still use the wheel controlers for radio n cruise control so need to modify it a bit,so turned into a longer job then i would have liked.i have thought about a omp wheel with a snap on boss so can remove it at night for extra security but still undecided on that as would need a airbag resistor and find out if horn in middle wheel still work or not with a quick release.so if anyone has one fitted let me no how they are.

  5. i have bottom in my hatch,on the hatch the top just has 3 screws you screw into original grill but all fixing holes for screws at at top of grill so bottom just flaps about,i got one for a focus st as well,bottom fitted great but top was 2 little screws and bit flat mettal to hold behind origianl grill,no matter how tight i did them it kept coming loose,and with original grill behind mesh i thought it just look wrong,but stick picture on when you have fitted it mate,would like to see how it looks,
  6. hi guys,so am sure anyone with the 07 on hatchback will no the seats dont hold you very well,so today i have sorted mine out,hold same as a blob seat now and cost me £6 for the foam from dunelm store.makes them feel way more sporty now i dont slide from side to side in the seat,done them to hold but not too tight.a guy on youtube i follow put a video on to show how to do it,take about half hour to do both seat and if you dont like it you can take it out,so if you have a hatch and would like the seats to hug you better then watch this video and transform your car.i have also fix't my centre arm rest,it did not clip down and was bouncing all other place,thanks to @Jamie_uk for how to fix it,work't a treat mate
  7. any 07 onward's sti hatchback front wings about,after a pair,any colour can have scraches in them as long not twisted or big dents,wanting them to experiment on,so cheap as possible would be nice as well
  8. you leave original in mate,they screw straight to original grills,dont fit great and look like crap,lower grill are ok but upper are awfull,i bought one for my 08 wrx hatch,i binned it and made my own.
  9. do you mean the one right at top that has a pin you push in in the middle or once that have a screw type end on them,mine dont have the little one in,but if you mean the other one with screw middle i will send you a couple i have loads them,got them on ebay.

  11. 1st hatchback cyril subaru and my hatchback now is cecil subaru. Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk
  12. ok so got my other 2 wheels painted today and on car,think my dad was looking down on me and made sun come out so i could get them done will get some pictures done of car with them on tomorrow when my new bling lug nuts come. so moving swiftly on to my next mod,as you no i have a front mount intercooler on car and i was thinking about the vent in the bonnet and how i could make some use of it and i thought hmmm stick a oil cooler under it,so i have done a quick photoshop of what it would sort of look like and i think yep lets go for it,so will be ordering parts shortly and any advice on them would be a big help guys
  13. subaru and gold go together
  14. welcome to the club and welcome back into the big subaru family,nice looking example you have their in betty,my mrs has named mine cecil .if your worried about pilling the miles on then i recommend get a cheap car for work and save betty for the fun stuff.
  15. can see pictures on computer but not on phone on tapatalk.
  16. hi guys got a couple questions about oil coolers.i no you use a thermostatic sandwich plate so the cooler only cools oil when it gets up to temp,the things am not sure about is 1 do you need to fill cooler with oil or just do engine oil as normal. 2 if you dont have to fill with oil then when oil starts going into cooler wont your oil drop bellow empty mark and damage engine,starve engine of oil,also will it effect oil pressure and will that run risk damage. thinking off adding one to list mods for my car,thanks guys.
  17. you will probly find some cheaper that was best one i found,i have seen bumpers for £150.
  18. bumper http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Subaru-Impreza-Blobeye-STi-front-bumper-02C-blue-/282217747137?hash=item41b57d12c1:g:PFgAAOSw4shX~q21 lip splitter http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/subaru-impreza-Blobeye-front-lip-splitter-spoiler-03-05-STI-in-black-finish-new-/152289586103?hash=item23752aabb7:g:F-4AAOSwdzVXokM2
  19. can get a wrx cheap and work on that make it nice for a lot less then converting a none turbo,i have had 3 none turbos and kept telling my self its cheaper then a turbo but it not,costs me less to run the turbo then it did a none turbo,i also thought about turboing my last none turbo,but the time cost and everything just does not make it worth it,buy a turbo car you will soon find plenty to keep you using the spanners on it
  20. their same mate for none turbo,wrx and sti, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-SEALED-Subaru-Impreza-WRX-STi-Blobeye-Fog-Lamp-Light-Cover-2003-2004-2005-/111551892463?hash=item19f902cbef:g:bAIAAOSwofxUkrd6 or if you want the surrounds http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Subaru-Impreza-Blobeye-fog-light-surrounds-/252578508848?hash=item3aceda3030:g:w1cAAOSwCGVX-7kz
  21. sould have wheeled that engine out while no one was watching
  22. i was with direct line about 10 year ago,price was not bad for a fiesta rs turbo,but if it had mods then they wouldnt have insured it.am with tesco this year not cheapest but service is ok,but will look round this time when i get my new price if it has gone up.
  23. finished painting my wheels dark grey today ready for winter,wont see their dirty now as easy other winter
  24. hi,it sould be ok but i would message them and ask for the dimensions first to make sure it fit your header tank hole,i would think it will be same,but dont hurt to ask them.
