Ringland/headgasket/engine failures
Turbo 2000 (X reg) owned for 2 years. Bought at 158k miles and now at 173k. Input shaft seal leak on gearbox likely caused by both age and myself. 2 synchro and 3 bearings replaced at same time due to age related wear.

Battlefield 1
The game can be picked up for around £30 now as a digital copy of xbox. Lots of people selling it as it was bundled in with some Xbox one S consoles.

Most scout rifles are one shot kill in standard games but they have sweet spots. I'm not sure the exact range of each sweet spot for each rifle but plenty of info on the webs. Doesn't need to be a head shot.

List of turbo's
Quite a lot involved. New sump, new manifold and different oil feed to the turbo(as far as I know) you also lose your burble.

Exhaust advise
I have a 3" turbo back decat and made 280ft-lb on a 2.0 TD04. not sure having a 2.5" would give more torque.

Getting a Gauge set up for Christmas!
http://www.scoobyparts.com/oil-pressure-oil-temp-gauge-fitting-kit-pink Link for parts you need if using the depo 4-1. Also grab yourself some wire, soldering iron and connector blocks if necessary. The wires from the gauge are rather short but you will need to wire into a supply anyway.

Would advise against using sandwich plates. Cheap versions leak and hard to monitor. You can buy a T piece that will fit into the oem oil pressure hole and it allows you to keep the oem pressure switch. For temp it's best to go for the bung that's located over #3 piston. That's the usual hot-spot due to being so close to the turbo and uppipe. You'll also need an adapter for the temp sensor as the sensor uses a different thread pattern to the engine. I'll find the link for the parts.

Dodgy RB5
Would be nice to get the chassis number and do some digging. Never know it might turn up on here or the rb5 forum.

When I tried them they fobbed me off a lot. I ordered mine from a German seller on eBay. I'll see if he still has them A bit pricier than some others but here it is. Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.de/itm/112122929717 He also has water temp versions but you lose oil pressure. Not a worthy trade.

It was only a cat d! What a mess of it. Be gutted as the new owner to find out it was in such a horrific accident.

We seem to have taken a little detour from the original topic. Let's get back on subject for op please rather than quibble about the cost of work.

We could always start using inHg to really break the mold 😂

Nevermind the points on your licence. Real punishment is when you mow down pedestrians on a zebra crossing. Happened to me a while back. One side had already stopped so began to cross as a clown on the other side rounded a corner clearly looking down.

I'm the same but opposite. Can't be trying to maths the psi to bar each time. I thinks it's all personal preference. Much like Fahrenheit and Celsius. They both tell you what it is just different scaling. You could argue psi is more accurate because it uses a broader scale.

Bar all the way.

New members need help fozzy STurbo 2000
Try to contact a few Subaru breakers. I got mine from down here, a place called East Kent Subaru. He will post but I expect it to be pricey considering the weight.

New members need help fozzy STurbo 2000
I had the same issue when needing a replacement bearing. I was worried about pulling the old bearing and finding the hub scored or damaged. That on top of wanting to do the work myself to save labour cost. Always a risk buying second hand parts especially bearings and hubs. There's no way of checking what mileage car they came from. I've been lucky so far as the hub I swapped has been on over a year now.

Agree with the three options mentioned. I have a 4-1. Nice little gauge.

Oh yes, I'm new! WR1 owner
Welcome to the club. I'd have loved a WR1 originally. Not many of them left in a decent condition now.

Need guidance on this project please!
Can't get over that. I told parcelmonkey but no reply about it.

Fuel pump
I also went for an RCM pump. I've had it for roughly 18 months and 0 issues. As savage says any new pump won't need to be mapped. http://rogerclarkmotorsport.co.uk/store/product/24-rcm-uprated-fuel-pump-1992-2008
