i wouldnt push the 2.5 block to 500 without some mods to it. Where did the 420 figure come from?
-
hahaha, fair enough :D
-
cool, what turbo did you go for?
-
So battery is fooked on the type R, went to start it this morning and its dead as a dodo. The question is, what to go for. Can pick one up on Eurocarparts for about £80 with decent crank amps. Or i can spend a bit more for an optima red top or similar sort of thing from somewhere else. What do folks recomend and wheres best place to get one from?
-
for 350bhp the standard block will be fine. standard crank will be ok as well. its at the upper limit of the wrx pistons and rods though. I wouldn't use a general dogs body garage for a rebuild, find a decent specialist who knows what there doing with subaru engines.
-
what specs the car?
-
While heads are off may as well get the crank bearings changed, your 80% of the way there so may as well do em. What spec very much depends on budget. Do you have a budget in mind?

lol, not sure how far i got tbh, lvl 10 or 11, got bored of leveling taking so long. -
dad bought hius about 9 months ago and im seriously tempted by one to replace my daily hack. Comes with tyre inflator crap rather than a spare, but you can buy an oiptional spare, but it raises the boot floor up. I find the seats pretty comfortable in it, but its always a personal thing with seats so i'd go sit in one and see what you think. Other option is the forrester which is its big brother

hmmm, when i final get the net sorted (!Removed! BT), then i'll check it out again, i'll let ya know and find ya online when i do -
Pretty sure that's where a friend of mine bought hers from, had a couple of issues with it but the guy was stand up and sorted them so very good experience with them all in all

scoobyclinic did have a nice black widetrack in, not sure what the asking price was though, give em a bell mate see what they have cos they normaly have something in for sale.

cant see a 'new content' clicky either? plus its reset subscription settings for users
-
So had a slight issue with a screw in my tyre when i picked up the car, Couldn't be sorted on the day so im currently on a temp set of wheels while it sorted. Issue i have is i;ve never been mega keen on the wheels that were on it, so pondering on making the change permanent. Im not 100% on either set hence the question. this is the temp set, this is my current set

Ah sorry, hadn't read it right, thought you meant it had got it.

Played it for a while but got bored of the slow leveling. Will i give it a go in the future? dunno, depends if i find people to play with or not. -
The hesitation is a concern, you say its got a boost controller. Has it actualy been mapped or have they just cranked up the boost?

Subaru Levorg estate to compete in British Touring Car Championship

Heard about this yesterday, alot of potential in this, just hope they dont ***** it up. I can see alot of subaru owners attending the btcc meets now :D -
haha cheers :D yeah daft thing is it started running out of fuel top end, so had to have a new fuel pump, bigger injectors and a fuel pressure reg. Only made 10bhp more after that before they had to stop lol I suspect it would pretty easily get to high 300's if not 400+ bhp if the turbo was pushed, how much torque it would get i have no idea, But im sure the gearbox would just fall over and run away if that was the case hahaha
-
So results are in and i picked up the car at the weekend :D Wow, goes like fook!!!!! graph kinda says why hahaha They stopped the mapping pretty early on, (running 1.2bar iirc),due to the torque rapidly climbing to gearbox shreading level so ended up at 331bhp iwhich im happy with, 380ftlb of torque is epic result :D
-
make sure you get that in writing from the dealer mate. then any issues at a later date your well covered
