you adict you,,,, lol

lmao, they been reading the express? lol

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?

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

has it been mapped for the bigger injectors?

Chassis damage is gonna kill it i expect :(

The piston rings could be scoring the bores of the block if they are damaged, only takes a split second and one rev to damage them if your unlucky. If part of the piston ring has detatched where has it gone? has i been crushed up and gone into the cylinder? iof so has it damaged the valves and the heads? etc etc untill a full engineering report is done to ascertain whats damaged and not you wont have a full picture, it could have done a ring land, could have done a piston itself, etc etc At the min all you know is its burning oil and theres oil where it shouldn't be. full stand alone ecu system, if your having it rebuilt then id go that route so you can sack the maf off etc

Yeah based up at chesterfield mate. I wouldn;t drive it if its that nackered. forged 2.0 will easily handel 400, for road use a 400bhp 2.5 will walk all over a 2.0 due to the low down grunt of the 2.5. I just went for a 2.0 to a 2.5 in my type r and its a very different drive, even without the turbo running lol Cost wise will be massivley dependant on the damage. If block is shot then cost for a 2.5 vs a 2.0 prob wont be huge difference depending on what can reused, if block is ok rebuild will be alot cheaper. Ecu wise depends what you want to throw at it, alcatek or syvecs would be my choice

Worth travelling for a decent one. As most folks know scoobyclinic do all my work and I wouldn't go anywhere else. You'd be ten times closer than some of their customers as well ;) lol As far as what you have done i'd pick a tuner and get a spec and price sorted and stick with that. Ringing round your gonna get 18 different answers some will be too cheap for the work, some will spec somethign that isn;t right for what you want etc etc. You also need to have the damage assessed to find out whats needed, if the block is damaged then it's gonna be a very pricey job. Also need to decide if your gonna stay 2.0, go 2.1, or even 2.5. 2.5 would be my choice ;)

personaly i;d stay clear of k-sports due to the dust seal issue

yeah i only found i got confidence in my old calssic when i swapped out the front calipers for some d2's. was lucky with the type r cos its got ap fronts and brembo conversion on the rear already

o right, didnt realise they were slide ones all round on em tis a bit of an !Removed! that
