Getting a new sti
Wotcha and welcome Lee :) I believe there is an imports place down your end that has Scoobies - Ill do some digging, I know its there as I ended up driving 4 hours 1 way arriving just outside Hastings to pick up the one in my pic but they had an alternative I was going to look at.

pollen filter
Hi Doris - welcome to the site It is as Gambit says behind the glove box draw, open the draw to its fullest and you can see there is a small retaining bar on the left side - this will just pull off allowing the draw to drop slightly more, it will now be stopped by a plastic post on both sides, there is enough flex in the draw to pull them in wards and allow the draw to drop further its a bit tricky to get them both in and allow the draw to drop all the way. When all the way down the draw will pull away from its hinge at the bottom. The filter is now right in front of you and reminded me of looking at a video cassette, just pull the existing filter out and replace with the new. If you are still stuck I can get some photos tomorrow.

Paint and clean up time
liking the grill - it is an improvement, black angel eyes would be a good choice methinks. question... possible discussion point - does the number plate position affect the airflow into the rad and intercooler, is there a noticeable difference on the temp guage or would it be better to get a bonnet sticker type? I only ask as the front spoilers I am looking at don't really accommodate a number plate that well and it will over hang the intake as well

What to look out for.
As Gambit says plus noise from main bearing but Simons is a tempting option ;)

correct me if i'm wrong but I thought all diesel engines would run on cooking oil or biodiesel as long as there was an appropriate thinner and the stuff had been filtered?

I like it - would probably split mine in two and have the one part with the address on the back of the car and the logo on each side

timing belt prices vary
I spend money on parts with two things in mind - how will I be using it and will it give me peace of mind There is nothing wrong with halfords and europarts kit and they do the job for a lot of people however you do own a particularly choice piece of kit (http://www.autotrader.co.uk/used-cars/subaru/impreza/used-subaru-impreza-p1-4wd-2dr-oldham-fpa-201142423014485) I believe Subaru quoted the P1 as having 280BHP which is not a small amount of power if things start to fail. I would get a quote from a main dealer for the belt and kit then compare to a reputable scooby spares dealer who specialise in these engines. but for me I would spend £155 and go for a kevlar reinforced item from cosworth - but then I would get peace of mind Just Subaru - Revolution service parts link - belt at £99 http://www.just-subaru.com/servicing-parts-classic-69085-0.html scooby world kit http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=47_292&products_id=2042 Cosworth belt http://lateralperformance.co.uk/product.php/190/90/cosworth_kevlar_timing_belt
