  1. Good to hear it was that exhuast leak rather than the dodgy pump. You've got a spare now though 😁😂
  2. Ally is the way forward for droplinks. One of the simplest upgrades to handling. I think I paid £80ish for front and rear.
  3. Possibly damaged the exhaust and 3rd video shows the sound.
  4. Just pray he didn't take down your address or you'll have foam fingers arriving in the post [emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23]
  5. Exactly. I'd think it's rather neglible. 1l fuel weighs roughly 1kg. Full tank is 60l or 60kg. Half being 30kg is going to make less difference than carrying one passenger 🙄🤔
  6. Full tank is more weight to carry so uses more fuel. I doubt it's a lot but there lies the logic.
  7. Won't pass with the decat on so I hope you have a friendly tester 😜
  8. If it's a classic you can perform a ecu diagnostic check for any fault codes if they've popped up. I'll add the link to the guide soon
  9. I'm the third owner of mine. If it's had asda 10w40 oil in it run away. Just little pointers in the quality of branded parts used.
  10. Standard car at 65k but it does depend on a lot more factors. Service history for a start. Type of parts used for services. Number of owners. Recent work carried out. Even the brand of tyres.
  11. Yes mate, I know it is. 93 RON in the US is made with the AKI and MON. Therefore IS 93 is UK 97.4 aka Super Unleaded. Here's a conversion chart that uses the formula's: http://www.pencilgeek.org/2009/05/octane-rating-conversions.html Plus the ECU should in theory read and compensate for the different octanes by retarding the timing and lowering the maximum boost output, even if it is slightly worse. Sticker on fuel cap says use Super Unleaded only. Like I said, seems to be running like a champ at the moment. Obviously if available and near by I'll put the 99 octane in... Thought I'd share it with everyone [emoji5] It's very easy for the unaware to look at the two numbers and think US fuel is **** compared to UK. Much like a US gallon and UK gallon.
  12. American Ron is calculated differently to ours. You can't compare us93ron to uk95ron. Quick bit of further reading suggests that us93ron is equivalent to uk99ron. They combine AKI and MON
  13. I like having the badges on the bootlid. Stick them back on.
  14. Oil pressure, oil temperature and boost. Can't help you on brands. I went for a cheap depo 4-1 and it's been fine for the 18ish months I've had it.
  15. That's not entirely accurate. Maybe the abused 10+ owner cars that no-one seems to care about will need extensive work. I own a uk classic which is on 173k miles. There's plenty of owners out there running high mileage cars.
  16. I'll be booking myself in for the next mission to Mars. Better prospects out there. Much safer too.
  17. Stick with the black Subaru filters. They changed the design on the blue ones and problems have been reported
  18. Shame you're on Odin. I used to play on Moogle. I smashed through the story. Coming from ffxi it felt like a holiday. Haven't been on it for a while as I couldn't warrant the sub price for the amount of time I get to play. If you ever check the lodestone my toon is Tece Recora.
  19. Sorry I missed your mention of the meets. We didn't have anything this week as quite a few were at Bedford for some track time.
