Wotcha and welcome :)

That's a great pressie - she obviously has taste is the 'beeep' from the gauges, can you turn it off?

There's a tidy outback on the site now - just needs an engine, you could kill two birds with one stone??

Brilliant!!!

Wow thats a huge difference - no problem with clearance now!!

go for the turbo but take the diving boots off before driving ;) echo Gambit - 3rd party only so break for bits and sell piece meal.

Jeez!! glad you are ok - did the diesel come from a bus/lorry overfilling its tanks, could be a liability there?

Wotcha Turkish and welcome in Is it the Scally Rally you are up for completing??

That is a proper result for that money - certainly wont lose any more on it if you look after it

rule out the blockage then :)

A proper sleeper, nice job

Wotcha and welcome Steve - Does the car run okay? - thinking possible blocked breather or failing that corroded / damaged pipe. Can you get the wheel off and have a good look underneath the arch, post some pictures if possible?

Looking good - yup headunit with iPod control is something I'm looking at, can plug it in but not good trying to change things on the move

Brilliant I love it!! :D

Wotcha and welcome Alex - unfortunately I cannot help you with this one hopefully someone will be along in a bit with more insight

Wotcha and welcome Ben :)

relocated to correct forum - good luck with the sale :)

Wotcha and welcome :) Its currently being considered - hopefully have something posted this week! Do you have a Subaru yourself - if so would be great to see some photos ;)

Man after my own heart

Wotcha and welcome :) research I did before buying mine only pointed towards faults if used for continued fast road use or lots of track days. the wheel bearing housing on the WRX is not as big as the STI so track day type driving with lots of heavy braking can cause the bearing to fail due to the heat. I found parts are comparable to the nissan and mazda's I have had in the past. so as Gambit says listen for noisy big end, check the service history chat to the current/former owner if possible and give yourself some peace of mind

Yes thats right all in the headlights :)

Hi Mike wotcha and welcome :) post a few photos and that should get the suggestions and comments going!

That would be great publicity for the site.

Measuring as you are doing will give a rough idea if you are comparing a like for like measurement with an assembled unit on ebay The length of the spring will be a big contributor to the ride height - you can have a damper with two different springs and one will sit lower if the spring is shorter. The strut you have doesn't look like a higher spec coil over setup so wont have adjustable ride heights to worry about. If you separate the spring from the damper then you will be able to see just how much it was compressed by the damper / or not as the case may be. Doing that you will also be able to see how much the damper extends so you may be able to get away with just changing the springs instead of the whole unit
