  1. personaly i wouldn't use metal brackets, i would just use screws/bolts with a washer. idea being if you catch it the mudflap is ripped off, rather than the bumper ;)
  2. Big jump in progress last week, Bottom end is now complete and awaiting the heads coming back from the machine shop after having new valve guides.
  3. its a proper machined insert so not sure, you may be abel to ship your block here to have it done maybe?
  4. welcome :)
  5. At idle it will have negative boost, at low revs will go up to basic waste gate pressure, that why you see a little boost.
  6. Unlikley, would be struggling to hold boost at top end i would have thought
  7. sounds pretty normal tbh
  8. Hahaha, been looking at road trips for past 2 months,,,, hahahaha
  9. rough guess 6 weeks. will prb be ready in about 4, but i go away in 5 weeks and will leave it with them till i get back
  10. just wait till you think its not enough pwoer and decide engine rebuild is needed,,,,,,,,, hahahaha
  11. LMAO. total setup but sill funny :D
  12. as above beyond that need to start considering rebuild
  13. leak down test as a starting point, will tell you if valves are an issue. if your getting a misfire on bank 3 after coil pack and spark plug
  14. http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/subaru/impreza-wrx/subaru-impreza-44s-wrx-turbo-awd-2002/4548051 summit like that, £1000 trade in leaving £2500 to find. by the time you do the cams, flywheel then look at brakes, suspension etc etc etc just doesnt make sence to do anything much to a none turbo. you can do all of that and still be slower than a standard wrx
  15. as above, standard bumper with aftermarket front lip splitter
  16. as above, basicly a 2001 jdm sti with mods
  17. by the time you have done all that your talking similar money to swapping for a wrx.
  18. will be different mate. v1 vs v2, wagon vs saloon
  19. wont be a plaque on a v2, was only v1's. have you got a picture of the vin plate?
  20. trying to get much nt he way of extra power out of yoru current car will be the same im afraid. Impreza's derive their power from being turbo charged
  21. None turbo isn't it? simply put dont bother even trying. Sell it and buy a wrx turbo.
  22. GF8 is a wagon/estate that model code applies to various versions from what i can tell, but all wagons. Engine code applies to just a V2 555 sti saloon though. As said, any pics?
  23. can prob be done via ecutek, but it aint gonna be any cheaper than a turbo map, so roughly £550+vat at least
