Wotcha and welcome - Hopefully someone local to you can supply the answer 🙂

Finally got around to paint correction on the drivers side, removed a lot of swirls and scratches on door / wing

Fitted some gauges Oil pressure, oil temp I fitted some time back under the turbo cyl 1 in preparation Sensor wires ready to be routed through bulkhead Some shrouding and the access sorted In place and through to under the dash gauge pod, gauges and showing the link cable will not reach Creating a patch lead Heat solder joints Plenty of length now Extending the power supply in the same way I connected the power supply to the appropriate feeds used for the stereo and routed the sensor leads from under the dash up behind the console, then fitted the new surround from South Coast Flocking One of my side repeaters was cracked so replaced with some Alibaba led specials before During After will try and upload a video... From the front Close up

Wotcha and welcome - plenty of members with experience of both those models

Wotcha and welcome - maybe going for an older option where depreciation and reliability are not so much of an issue?

Wotcha and welcome - feel free to share photos, particularly picturesque in you part of the world I understand

Wotcha and welcome - plenty of experience with the classic models on here, feel free to get stuck in, all friendly

Wotcha and welcome!

Wotcha and welcome - sounds interesting, feel free to create a project thread and keep us posted 👍

I could not tell from that vid - it could be the AC pump, could be power steering? You could try unhooking each of the belts and see if the noise is still there?

Wotcha and welcome 🙂

Not sure about a centre console one but check out these guys who can do double and triple pods for the hatch https://www.southcoastflocking.com/blank-page

Wotcha and welcome - check this thread out, lots of information when buying a scoob. https://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/1619-help-check-guide-buying-1st-subaru/

A lot of work gone into that motor GLWTS

Wotcha and welcome - feel free to share pictures, get stuck in etc all friendly on here

Opt for an exhaust system with a resonator as well as a back box silencer, that will lower the noise and be less cost than a sports cat also no issue with the ECU map

Great to hear - many see advantages of mapping a standard car as the factory map is a compromise

Sounds like a great example - I would suggest creating a thread in the for sale section and add the photos to there. We do get a lot of views in that section from non members

Apologies - forgot the 's' has twin pipes - will an STI pipe not fit, may have to go cat back though?

Some being broken on facebook currently. Pole Position Wolves have some bonnets but given your location I would talk to Shah at Nippon Autospares https://nipponautospares.com/

Yes - I use the H&R hubcentric 20mm on my hatch Before front Before rear After front After rear

Is it the back box itself or the heat shield above it? fitted a resonated cobra wrx s system to my RX, great fitment and sound plus stainless steel so will not need to replace

Wotcha and welcome

Yup a lot of manufacturers are using LED's more and more. Is it worth checking to see if it a loose wire on a circuit board? Failing that keep an eye out for people breaking from a front end smash. There dont seem to be the alibaba aftermarket options for your year yet as it looks like new imprezas share the same unit but are a bulb connection like the previous version of your motor

Great to hear the positive feedback
