  3. ECUTek remap and a different head unit
  4. It is possible - quite a few kits out there some to go inside rear window some can go externally http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Rear-View-Camera-Waterproof-Backup-License-Plate-Reversing-Parking-Sensor-/271202049220?pt=UK_In_Car_Technology&hash=item3f24e6dcc4 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WIRELESS-CAR-REAR-VIEW-KIT-7-LCD-MIRROR-MONITOR-IR-REVERSING-CAMERA-UK-/230870127086?pt=UK_In_Car_Technology&hash=item35c0ee91ee
  5. I dont know last car she named Melissa - dont know where it came from but I dare say the great technicoloured deity has quite an influence on young minds ;)
  6. named by my 6 yr old the scooby is Daphne and the black Vito van we have is Fi-Fi :P
  7. Yes indeed - had a quick look and I believe there is a few potential customers for you
  8. It can be an expensive hobby - in last couple of years I have just purchased my first set of all in one leathers - had 20 years of leather jackets and jeans - not good
  9. Yes they are worth it - as Gambit says just check for cracks etc
  10. nitemare sorry to hear that :(
  11. Looking good - great colour... and will have that new car smell as well!!
  12. my 2p - I think you would be better using your old heads as it will match with the existing loom / sensors etc and wont confuse the ECU
  13. oh I dont doubt it - a fair few surprised looks long the way I would say :D
  14. yup really clean - puts a lot of other weekend gypsy vehicles to shame ;)
  15. Very nice - Im a bit of a team green fan myself
  16. Very nice!! wotcha and welcome - do like the big square chunky alloys in first pic
  17. Wotcha and welcome Eric I drove an Integrale back in the day with a view to making a purchase, absolutely awesome car from a performance perspective - a proper rush however the interior colour scheme was hideous and they rusted something chronic... so how does it compare - I got the same rush from owning the scooby - I am a new to subaru's myself, on the newer cars the sti variants have a wider track, bigger hubs to help with heat displacement protecting the bearings and bigger brakes - few mods for more power as well. DCCD yep why not if you are in the market for something to put a smile on your face get all the bells and whistles as well dont worry about water injection for the intercooler though some cars have it some dont. there is a really nice classic advertised at the moment but it has two doors (particularly special) so may not be as handy for your daughter although if she is old enough to scramble in and out of the safety seat she will be fine. http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/1772-2000-impreza-p1-for-sale-mailage-8473/ whatever you decide keep us posted and dont forget to share some photo's ;)
  18. If you are intending to be running at lots of high revs (whilst it is in your kitchen), look at changing the oil pump, putting in a sump baffle and the coolant pump to stop overdrive and cavitation. Example links. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-92-12-SUBARU-IMPREZA-SUMP-BAFFLE-PLATE-OIL-CONTROL-baffled-wrx-sti-/161066575443?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item258050e653 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUBARU-IMPREZA-TURBO-WRX-WRX-STI-COSWORTH-BLUEPRINTED-OIL-PUMP-EJ20-25-/270849097703?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f0fdd3fe7 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/190830300831?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 Or alternatively buy this... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/subaru-impreza-STI-7-8-9-ENGINE-REBUILT-Baffled-sump-acl-race-rcm-pump-/161073994200?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2580c219d8
  19. Wotcha and welcome - looks awesome (I am slightly biased though ;) ) how easy was the spoiler to mount, does it bolt to existing mounts? what head unit is it and was there any additional harness' needed to get it reading ECU / CANBUS info?
  20. What mileage have you got on the clock? before replacing the injectors I would look at ensuring airflow in and out is maximised and engine is in good working order to get a good starting point so look at getting existing injectors cleaned / serviced good spark plugs etc. then induction kit + filter exhaust manifold hi flow or decat if cat in place rolling road session to get fuelling spot on and see what you have got and understand how much the existing injectors are being loaded a decent spark from plugs and hi performance leads next in order to increase the fuel air mixture into the chambers have the heads gas flowed - at this point it may be prudent to change the injectors. Gas flowing the heads will give you an accurate point for flow rates and an injector size can be matched accordingly, you may also find reprofiled cams will allow extended duration giving more mixture flow time and increasing the bang. before all of this though I would got to a rolling road session and just see what the engine is developing as is then at least you can see if any changes you make improve the situation or not.
  21. like that - subscribed myself
  22. yup cortinas electrics and water was never a good mix - all the wigglies would swim away
  23. sorry dont have any - although I will be in a similar situation myself as the wheels currently in place need refurbing
  24. Wotcha and welcome - no wars on here all very much under the six stars flag, and a few that are not as it goes ;)
