Wotcha and welcome Jord - yes lumpy tickover is part of the Scooby charm due to unequal headers feel free to get stuck in with the forum and dont be camera shy ;)

Ahhh this is a serious post - not good particularly for the companys future financially I thought I was going to viewing this when I saw the thread title

Those rims look top drawer - cant go far wrong with a bit of Italian exotica

Wotcha and welcome Dave - it is indeed a great feeling owning & driving a Subaru All friendly on here so feel free to get stuck in :)

Wotcha and welcome - looking forward to following your project thread ;)

Some photos may help the sale

Wotcha and welcome - quite a few members for your part of the world - check out the vids of the highland run - looks great

Oooo better have a look :o/

Wotcha and welcome!!

Wotcha and welcome - This could be a dodgy earth it could also be a partially broken connection. Unfortunately if it was me I would have the dash apart checking the loom routing and the connection into the ECU making sure no dodgy or broken connections - as the dash works normally sometimes I would say that is fine but the supply to it is corrupted somehow. A member recently had electronic gremlins and traced it to the connector block plugging into his ECU. sorry I cant be more specific

Wotcha and welcome- very tidy motor that feel free to get stuck in with the forum we have a varied membership with quite a few choice modifications on peoples motors

Cheers matey... No it will still be a hatch - missus doesnt like the saloons - but I cant complain I do like the hatch myself and when the classic project comes along she wont be that interested ;)

Donation made - but just read Steves post so might approach you again before you place the order ;)

Its been a while since the we had to let our STI go but this weekend we put a deposit down on a replacement. Looking to collect a 2.0 rx hatch automatic with 156bhp of snarling death under the hood this weekend :) It has about 38k on the clock in dark grey metallic with alloys and rear parking sensors will be fitted before collection. In answer to the question why go from a 330bhp manual to a 156bhp auto, well here is the plan... The elderly inlaws have an 1988 auto Camry which is still going but will need quite a bit of money spent in the not too distant future, being the still very independant / proud pensioners they are actually helping them out takes a bit of cunning - the idea is we get this motor for a short while then pass it on to them when we get something a bit tastier. That being said it hasnt stopped me compiling quite a shopping list... Stainless steel exhaust system (thanks GMI!! http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/14125-gminsites-wrx-hatch/#entry86741) Wheel refurb Continentals all round PIAA wipers Subaru boot liner Subaru rear fender guard LED lights STI centre console (as it has a slide closure for the cup holders) Mirror closure module and loom Carbon splitter S.O.C stickers and mudflaps to put them on... trying to justify a strut brace - (again thanks GMI) Also the dash only has a fuel guage tacho and rev counter no temp guage so was thinking about an STI / WRX pod conversion as I dont think guages down the a pillar will win the inlaws over Will upload some photos as soon as we get it home :D

They both do same job - think it is just a matter of preference over noise made

Still does sound like leak somewhere particularly as you have it running fine, soapy water way to go for leaks

Really useful link that - nice one :o)

Wotcha and welcome Greg - just enjoyed reading you other thread, will be following that one :)

Looking great - clearly you have done your homework with what mods will work best for the track ;)

Wotcha and welcome, keep us posted on what you decide and feel free to get stuck in with the rest of the forum, loads of info on different motors - Matt owns a wagon with a fair few mods

Wotcha and welcome - great looking motor you have there

Wotcha and welcome - check codes as suggested but it could be plugs or coils breaking down - injectors may need a clean, if the fuel pump has not been changed in the last 10 years that could be starting to lose some of its pressure...??
