Brembo brakes
Offset will be an issue opn the wheels as well. You could chuck a set of D2's on it or a AP 4 pot kit for the ultimate, really depends on budget

Do I buy a daily driver....?
def go for a daily, e39 5 series is a right comfy barge, £1000 should get a decent one, as long as you dont use a main dealer they not that bad parts costs wise and being bmw they go and go and go

Forza Motorsport 6
after playing both i have to say i think i prefer horizon 2 lol I find the new menu system on 6 (may be the same on 5, i went from 4 to 6) hard to follow, the lack of ability to mod for races etc etc. Horizon the opponents just level with you

Engine change....2.0l turbo 2.5l turo
what power you running? Anything bigger than a TD04 will see an improvement when a front mount is fitted and mapped. thing is people get hung up on claims it causes lag. unless you get one with a stupidly large core then they don't. once you swap out the standard turbo you see improvements in power from a front mount, cooler temps allow more aggressive timing with the map, issue is always heat so improving the air cooling leaves more wiggle room for the mapper.

Engine change....2.0l turbo 2.5l turo
like all tuning varies from car to car, was pushed to just over 400 and then backed off due to temps. i wouldn;t wanna run more than that on a top mount thats for sure

Engine change....2.0l turbo 2.5l turo
thats a 2.5 mate, no chance of getting a torque figure or spool like that on a 2.0 ;) Was limited by the top mount, had an sti one on it and was getting temp issues.

BBC wave bye bye to F1
lol, yeah. bbc is rapidly going downhill even in my eyes. Interesting the budget is 150mill short, with £42mill a year from top gear which will drop off of the next few years its only gonna get worse for them

Upgrading 2.0 Impreza non turbo rx 150bhp
As said, for the cost it's a pretty pointless exercise. Trading it in for a wrx or sti is a far cheaper option and get alot more bang for your buck.

Engine change....2.0l turbo 2.5l turo
Time to dispell some myths ;) First off the standard 2.5 is pretty poor, ringlands and headgaskets are known to fail. However built right, there fine to 450bhp and keep the right side of reliability. For road use a built right a 2.5 is about as good as it gets in scoob, the low down grunt they produce makes them spool allot better than 2.0's. Anything above 450 then block needs work, pinning is an option but personally i'd go for close deck converting given its only about £500 give or take. In fact i just have. Just finished running in my closed deck 2.5 converted Type R. I had a forged 2.5 in my old hawk and yet to see anyone get near this on a 2.0. I've had 2.0's and i've had 2.5's and i'd go 2.5 all day long

Subaru service rip-off
Oil change every 5k then rest of it as per recomended spec. Anyone leaving oil in a subaru (turbo model i should add) for 12k needs to go ask someone in the know and start doing it more often
