excellent :)

Yup I resemble those remarks also :P

well with the current weather going into winter it shouldnt be too much of a concern as any tension will be relieved by wheels spin and sideways antics ;)

brilliant news - start working your way down that list now :)

We have a few in Norfolk - not too far from you

its like looking at a high res haynes manual - lovely :)

I would go for the smaller crystal option - the wagon itself is a big statement, wheels scoop etc I think the P1 option would be lost in the front end or carbon covers without the pink

wider track, bigger wheel bearings to dissipate any heat build up, nice fitted mats with a logo - lots of little touches here and there :)

yup awesome looking wagon - hold out for the STI for your missus the difference between that and the wrx is worth it

not at all - it should be all smooth, but hopefully you will crack it soon

Im biased but each to their own ;)

Wotcha and welcome Matt - thats a great line up you have owned, the P1 is a favourite of a few members on here and IM sure your wife will enjoy the change no end ;)

The injectors may have been damaged by putting crap through them - might be worth pulling them off and having them ultrasonically cleaned and tested

I think it applies to some models and not to others in the Scooby range so it will be useful to know - according to that article posted earlier in the thread Imprezas are not as affected but Fozzies probably are possibly legacies

I believe the horn is front mounted behind the grill in front of the rad, cant help with the fuse box with things like that there tends to be an additional fuse panel inside the car under the dash -- Im sure one of the more knowledgeable members can help with that one

need to research the compound used but the DA one Miggs recommended is not as bad as a full on professional one which can take the paint off - also I have a van with a lot of surface area on for getting my technique sorted before going near a car :P

looks like a great day was had :)

well that will be an easy installation - hopefully the loom will be there, Paula it may pay to have a look behind the switch panel and see what unused plugs are sat there

mismatched in what way - pure wear or different brands on the same left to right axis?

went through my owners manual this evening, highlights are rotate diagonally front to rear every 6,200 miles. All 4 tyres to be the same brand model etc, for safe vehicle operation replace all 4 at the same time ( I believe this assumes rotation and equal wear) using tyres of non specified size detracts from controllabilitiy, ride comfort, braking performance, speedo accuracy and mile count acccuracy. Then there is a warning box with the following in 'all four tyres must be the same in terms of manufacturer, brand (tread pattern) construction, degree of wear, speed symbol, load index and size. Mixing tyres of different types sizes or degrees of wear can result in damage to vehicles powertrain. Use of different types or sizes of tyres can also dangerously reduce controllability and braking preformance and can lead to an accident.' So Subaru state it is something that can happen - a possibility perhaps but the thing is you will never be in a perfect scenario of equal grip on all four tyres at the same time for the life of the tyres so this is something you cannot reasonably counter other than the rotation of tyres but saying that dependant on your driving style you could have the rears down to the canvas in 3k and loads still left on the fronts. I will always buy worn tyres in pairs and replace damaged individuals as they arise - ill let you know if something breaks but I wont be out there with a tread guage every two minutes not when the turbo clutch and brakes are more likely to fail before the powertrain :D

Any chance you could post a photo?
