Brilliant!! a result finally :)

Jeez not again - sorry all, thought we had sorted this particular Gremlin

looking good and bids on it already - should sell no problem

it did take me a bit but once I had seen one the others appeared - nice job :D

The basic design has not changed that much in the grand scheme of things just tweaked for weight strength or improvement - the newer ones still collect gunk under rear arches as there is a lip so check there for bubbling - the paint is thin so look for excessive stone chips. The metal is thin so look for dents where someone may have leant something on the car and not been able to push it back out on the rear 3/4 area above the side windows for instance. The painted panels in the door cards have thin paint and scratch and wear from use - peoples hands / rings when opening and closing the door Paint damage on the top of rear bumper where stuff has been loaded / unloaded from boot space The main bearings can go so any dodgy noises walk away there is no turbo to worry about but check the service history to see if the belts have been changed, if not try and get that done as part of the deal

Oh dear that does sound quite conclusive - as Savage posted once you have the code you can identify the appropriate diff

Wotcha and welcome here is a Subaru buying guide http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/1619-help-check-guide-buying-1st-subaru/ the car looks fine from the description - Becky22 has one and had an issue but that was caused by a shoddy mechanic not reported anything else, IMO it would look better with a larger spoiler on the rear but that is something that could be sorted in time

Pete has covered all the points I would make dont worry about the coolant colour just as long as it has some, you can always flush the system at a later date with a colour of your choice

you could go direct, it is on this forum under Subaru in General - Subaru Tyres / Wheels & Suspension thread title Changing from Bridgestone's to Falken's

Great to hear - keep us posted, but hopefully you have it sorted!!

sorry - not I

hey - :D track day etiquette in the high street

Am part way through and it is - so far - an informative simple well presented document whcih is easy to supply to others

Wotcha and welcome - lovely looking car - I do like the Hawkeyes!!

looks the part - got its new wellies muddy :D

looks interesting - will have a read of the full document tomorrow, nice one!! :)

yup how did it go??

see if you can work something out with this chap and get something really special http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/4052-for-sale-2003-legacy-twin-turbo-wagon/

aaahhh I see - makes it very special indeed then, someone will get something very individual

steer clear of STI wheels though as the hub is different this place may give some ideas http://www.wheelbasealloys.com/# and these will give fitments of different models across the range so you can see what else fits http://www.cars101.com/subaru/tiresandwheels.html http://www.carlsalter.com/subaru-wheel-fitments.html

That was the requirement for some of our Northern members and it has worked out great for them so far :)

fingers crossed for ya ;)

strange it works for me - ill recopy... http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/4030-changing-from-bridgestones-to-falkens/

Wotcha and welcome!! :)

Wotcha and welcome - I also have had to trade toys for bricks and morter in my time - as you have experienced it does work out with a bit of patience :) Sounds like you have a great basis already - do like the Hawkeyes myself - wrt mappers Andy Forrest comes up alot but a chap that does regular work for members on here is the Jolly Green Monster (JGM) but you could also look at Scooby world in Loughborough they do the ECUTek product. http://www.andyforrestperformance.co.uk/index2.html http://www.jollygreenmonster.com/ http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/index.php?cPath=211&osCsid=bfd1b6aabbadd767be6e2350020fe5c3 There is a garage in Gloucester set up by members on here specialising in Subaru's - MD Performance http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/user/1155-md-performance/ hope this fills in a few gaps in information :)
