  1. Gotta be done then. Red it is. I've still got the original wheels so maybe I'll give them a swap one day too.
  2. Those calipers look smart. I need to repaint mine. What colour would you recommend on a silver classic?
  3. Ya the rad was changed as it had a pin hole leak and flushed through like you said. I was told it had a small amount of blue coolant in it at some point which I hear is bad for the aluminium.
  4. Hi there. I started out with a classic. With your budget I'd be getting a late blob eye dccd. I prefer the exterior look and it has the lower tax bracket. As far as I know it also shares the same interior as the hawk eye. Just my personal opinion though. I have no experience with the newer age cars. [emoji1] [emoji14] I'm sure someone with a vast knowledge on all the models will be along to help you out. Welcome aboard!
  5. Gambit I heard a mechanic tell someone about **** in the carb they asked how often they need to. Mr B hopefully that's all it is so I've cleaned the overflow and I'll keep an eye on it to see if I get any more of the stuff.
  6. Thanks for your thoughts guys. I will be keeping an eagle eye on all the levels and I'm pretty obcessive with fluid checks before/after a drive.
  7. Thank you for that reply Tim. What type of oil should I use part synthetic or fully?
  8. Hi. I'm looking to service my impreza turbo 2000. The engine has 158k miles and only has a aftermarket back box. I intend to add a cat back and upgraded panel filter plus remap. Which oil do you recommend.
  9. Ok I'm in. How do we deal with +1's?
  10. I'll be travelling from south. Should take me 2 hours. All our members get to park on the stands?
  11. So when we go as a club do we have a specific parking area? This would be my first event I visit so I'm full of eager and questions.
  12. Sound like chaos. Is it better to get there the night before then?
  13. It was hose pipe flushed through. No gunk came out.
  14. Is the entry ticket price per person or per car?
  15. It does feel a bit gritty. When the rad was changed none of that stuff was in any of the pipes it didn't flow out either. I've seen oil/water mix before and it was nothing like that.
  16. I'm keen on this. Any rough idea on prices? Trying to save for a wedding as well as looking after the impreza. I've learnt quickly...don't tell her anything.
  17. Scooby world have a lifetime guarantee on their flaps so if you lose one for whatever reason they replace it. Might be a bit pricy compared to others but always nice to have a lifetime of flaps. [emoji6]
  18. I was hasty making this topic. I should've searched first as I found oilman and pm'd him. I was just browsing the packages they offer and it has a ufl filter but I'd prefer a genuine Subaru filter. Also not 100% sure on the best oil for me to use. The engine has 158k mile with only a back box changed. I was thinking maybe 10w40 fully syn.
  19. Just wonder if anyone has any experience with the website Opie oils. They seem to be really cheap, in my eyes £30 for 5l of oil plus a filter is too good to be true and that usually means it is.
  20. I played the last beta and I really couldn't get on with the handling. Felt very arcady no matter what settings I put it on.
  21. Today I had my radiator changed as the old one had a very small leak. It never leaked enough to notice a drop in coolant so I've never been worried about it running low. The old rad was completely rotten so it was a good thing I swapped it now. All topped up bled through and looking good on that front now I'm not sure if I didn't notice this before but there seems to be sludge in the overflow. Header tank is clean, no bubbles in overflow and oil cap doesn't have cottage cheese so I'm ruling out head gasket. My question basically is What is this stuff?? Maybe it's some old remnants of a kseal attempt? Would do you guys think?[emoji54]
  22. Looking smart. I had my rad changed. The bottom was completely rotten so lucky I changed it now before I lost all the coolant.
  23. Yes YouTube and tapatalk. Looks like it worked using the url button
