  1. Pressure will depend on grade of oil and running temp. At 87-89℃ my idle pressure is 2.7bar. When I'm fully up to temp 97℃ it's at 2.0bar. I use 10w40 fully synthetic oil. Cold start with oil at 25-30℃ idle is 6.3bar.
  2. We have a couple of guys that live in Ashford [emoji4]
  3. Greenhithe is next door to Bluewater. I'll speak to the group and see if someone can come visit.
  4. Depending on the date, the 2000 could be a classic shape. The 2002 will be a bugeye shape.
  5. Offset is the relation between the centre line of the wheel and the point the wheel bolts to the hub. A positive offset will pull the centre line closer to the car so you may have trouble with the wheel contacting the suspension or tyres rubbing the inner arch. Negative offset will push the wheel away from the hub which may stick out of the arch or rub the wing. There is usually a tolerance for each car and I'm sure I've seen it posted online for subarus. It gives you the highest/lowest offsets the car can take.
  6. Always nice to know a specialist who deals with special emission requirements [emoji12] I travel 30 mile round trip to my mechanic.
  7. A few details and price will help the sale [emoji106]
  8. Changed a rear wheel hub. [emoji15] Time for a test drive.
  9. Yeah agree with that. I've had ign on longer before with all lights going and no issue. Gonna monitor it next few days and have it tested.
  10. Gotta be done. Just testing it [emoji12] I still test mine.
  11. Yeah was quick. Had everything on but still seemed quick. Jumped easy and running at 13.9vlt with lights on. Got home and was fine off and on again.
  12. Parked up, left ignition on. Lights and radio... 15 minutes later. Not enough juice. She cranked but wouldn't fire. Had to get a jump start.
  13. It's a gauge, it reads boost, it works. Good enough. Could pay 3-4 times as much for the same job.
  14. I like that! Always worth carrying some spares. [emoji23] [emoji23]
  15. Yeah mine sits negative most of the time too.
  16. Good luck today guys. Hope you all have a good one.
  17. He doesn't mean the exhaust bung [emoji12] [emoji48]
  18. Block of your dump valve/recirc valve. I wouldn't recommend it as it stalls the turbo and forces it to rotate backwards. There should be a few write ups online. Have a read up and look in to it before you decide it's something you want permanently.
  19. Hi Sue, where are you in Kent? I would gladly do the ecu check. Failing that we have a few members scattered about Kent that could help. We also hold a meet in greenhithe on the first Saturday of each month. If you're interested I will forward all the details on to you. [emoji106]
  20. What you looking to go for?
  21. That's a shame. It may help to put up a small description and price. Good luck!
  22. 24 on the stand I believe.
  23. Importcarparts.co.uk stock service parts at very cheap prices. Oil is an age old question and everyone seems to voice different opinions. I use Miller's cfs 10w/40 on my classic running 278hp at 169k miles. I've used shell helix before.
  24. Didn't take much forcing last time [emoji38]
