Wahaaay big boys toys :D

I don't think that would stop the car as you are driving along - maybe to have it run lumpy or not on all cylinders but I believe your problem is common to the whole engine, a sensor defective somewhere that has killed the engine but as you are returning zero EML faults I, as suggested, would rule out the immobiliser first

Wotcha and welcome ;)

useful to know will watch out for that pillock

Wotcha and welcome, sounds like someone has fitted it to mimic race / rally style setup, probably when they installed an uprated fuel pump

Yep, really like the colour, nice!

I preferred this ;)

Wotcha and welcome - that is a really tidy example

must admit I'm stumped you have fuel and a spark - after it cut out whilst driving - only thing I can think of is a split tube somewhere leaking all the good stuff before it gets to the chambers

So I remember all of these but I was inspired by this ;) giving it stacks in a rear wheel drive coupe and kids on bikes wayhay http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFlmEznsr2w

Wotcha and welcome - there are a few choice items about, dependant on budget, Simon's is a particularly nice example ahem if you like black of course ;) but it is worth the wait to get the right car for yourself.

Wotcha and welcome ;)

or this one for £105 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Subaru-Impreza-P1-WRX-STi-Type-R-Spec-C-RB5-GC8-EJ20-EJ25-New-Sump-With-Bolts-/350716496308?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item51a85509b4 you could spend the money saved on a performance baffle to keep the oil in the pan http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUBARU-COSWORTH-EJ25-EJ20-OIL-SUMP-BAFFLE-IMPREZA-TURBO-PLUS-WRX-STI-P1-/271153460322?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f22017462 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tomei-Powered-Oil-Control-Sump-Baffle-Subaru-Impreza-EJ20-EJ25-/271111396315?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f1f7f9bdb

that's the problem with jap cars they don't leak oil had the same issue on my 200sx however would this one for £35 quid not do the job? http://www.subaru-impreza-parts.co.uk/products/subaru-impreza-parts/subaru-impreza-engines-for-sale/ej20-sump.html give it a once over to get any corrosion off and high temp hammerite it

Wotcha and welcome :)

Subaru has a history of what is termed as badge reengineering, the saab 95 which came out that was a Subaru, Toyota Camry's being built at the Subaru plant in the states, they have multiple stakeholders which until quite recently included GM. I didnt realise just how many people have fingers in the Subaru pie

I dont think you will have a problem with an STI TM intercooler, the engine layouts appear to be consistent throughout the range banging that turbo on though carries a serious smile risk so be careful ;)

Spoiler and splitter are the way to go, agree with Pete go for the detail over respray unless you are going for a completely different colour ;)

ahem - of course that has never happened to me either :D

excellent - right Ill get onto ordering some of that - might try the muc off I have fro the bikes whilst I'm waiting for it to come through see how that does

I take it your lad has blinked in the shot and not passed out with the head lock you have him in :D

I do :P but I'm old

probably a good clean would cure it

It does indeed look v clean - seeing yours I and some of the others on here, like Mels, I need to work on the engine bay bring it up to scratch. Hadnt thought of washing the car again after using clay bar but I suppose it would take off all the excess will do that next time

subarus do have that effect - I have a big grin every time I drive, sound like a great set of mods you are going for.
