  1. yup sounds like you made a great decision there !!
  2. mine has a screw in loop in the lower spoiler on the drivers side - there are also two strap down loops underneath the car left and right side. If I were you given the cost etc hire a trailer and tow it back on that- you will probably know someone with a van or 4x4 that can tow it
  3. ours taunts you from the centre of the dash
  4. I know someone who will probably be along shortly with quite the knowledge of all things bugeye, I am sure he will be able to point you in the right direction
  5. Onto third tank of this now and the ave consumption has gone from an indicated 18.8 - 19.3 to 20.4 - 21.0 so I am getting more mpg - this is purely urban running at the moment haven't had to complete a long journey yet
  6. as long as it has been sat on a level surface checking when cold is fine. As you have a turbo I would go fully synthetic opie oils back up now - recommending 5w-30 fully synth http://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-680-1-us-quart-0946-litre.aspx
  7. Jay762 replied to chief's topic in Subaru Forester Club
    Wotcha and welcome - as Gambit says - dependant on budget go for ebay or if fit is important go to a Subaru parts dealer but they are a little more expensive
  8. only lasted part way through second series of heros - 1st one great 2nd one dire
  9. got through the first couple of series - enjoyed those but lost track and didnt catch up - I also enjoyed the 3 series of breaking bad I have seen if that helps
  10. If the PPP hasn't been been added it isnt a Type UK as that is the difference between a standard WRX STI running circa 300BHP and the 330 of the Type UK. The cars wouldnt have automatically had the update - I am not aware of any issues wrt post 2010 cars although if I owned one I would do the same to get the extras anyway and peace of mind but also unless it is a 330 or a Cosworth they will not be running that much BHP. If you are looking at spirited driving as well as a remap you should seriously consider an uprated oil pump and sump baffle to keep the oil in the right place at the right pressure
  11. As above plus statement from Subaru http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/news/legal--motoring-advice/2010-10/subaru-issues-statement-on-impreza-and-forester-25-litre-engines/ I intend to get the mapping on mine done as a just in case plus all of the good stuff like launch control, flat foot shifting, down shift blip - fly by wire throttles are very exciting :P
  12. ^^^^^ :lol:
  13. and then watch your mates try and start it on the button :lol: :lol: :lol: almost as funny as wiring it to the brake :D
  14. been looking at something else and discovered that Morgans still have a dash mounted horn switch so it must be ok
  15. as long as you have a button that can be operated from the drivers seat ie on steering wheel or end of stalk it will pass - I dont think dash mounted counts
  16. ok so it looks like the Opie oils site is having some issues at the moment...
  17. 1, 5w-40 or 10w-30 check out the opie oils website - they give a discount for S.O.C. members http://www.opieoils.co.uk/product-finder/car/engine-oil/subaru/1997/forester/PETROL/product-finder-2.aspx 2, I use the main box section that runs under the car for my trolley jacking point 3, Ill pass on that one to someone who has owned that model B)
  18. thats it - difference is if it is a recirc valve or not
  19. utterly bonkers that is going to catch a few people out :D
  20. Good luck - any chance you could post some photos or a link to some as I believe it may increase the chances of a sale
  21. ooooooohhhh so many comments Jasper Carrot quote springs to mind, overload!!!! :P I like to think I am making them feel included as part of the little six starred tribe :)
  22. Looking good ;)
  23. hey it is what it is - I am sure in other areas there is a forrester massif slammin and pimpin their ride who happily acknowledge there Subaru brethren. I do get a lot of befuddled looks though - of 'do I know him, why is he flashing me are my lights on????' :D
  24. I give the headlight flash to other subaru's - impreza's tend to respond but only about 30% legacy's and no forresters so far have responded, but that is more to do with the demographic in them round by me, they appear to be owned by the older country types
  25. proper factory look - maybe someone from here will have them off you
