hahaha, she gives as good as she takes :D lol

Subaru will wash their hands of it, they stated in 2010 that it was the owners fault for tuning, driving them to hard, not servicing them properly etc etc total bollox but saved em millions in remedial work. 2.5 out the box is !Removed!, very common for pistons break the ring lands , head gaskets to fail etc. If it's gone to API they should be well aware of the issues and put none subaru pistons, gasket and head studs in then no more issues down the line with it :)

Had major issues with battery's on my old classic due to being parked up, 2 batteries in 3 years died, then got ctek battery conditioner and never had any more issues with starting or batteries dying.

Alyn at AS performance has been selling the stuff harvey's developed, well worth the money imo. Spoke to harvey many times on the phone and met him a couple of times. Such a loss to the subaru world :( RIP

Carbon wrap is a bit meh imo, proper carbon ones tend not to be a 100% fit, had a proper seibon one on my M3 and panel gaps wern't great

Finally managed to get a r34 gtr m spec skyline on gt6 (not played it for ages haha) now need to finish modding the fook out of it :D lol

hahahaha, sorry,,,,,,,

My mrs would slap me if i dared to suggested a super mini instead of scoob lol

nice, not sure about the knob and balls shaped gap though lol I've got an otter box on mine lol

Big concern is how its stored, remember a guy who stored his car for 3 years and left it without proper coolant in it, 3 winters later goes on dyno for mapping, heater matrix is ruptured (not a cheap or easy job) which pee's water all over the interior, that's fixed and then found the headgasket has gone due to the ice splinting pipes lifting the heads. Forresters are hardy beasts, but not gonna be cheap to get back on the road at all, gonna need a full service, prob a set of tyres at least which wont give you much change from £1500. Add in other rubber items that don;t like being stood and its asking for trouble. Can't see it being viable myself

Alot of folks vary on this and 99% of it is opinion, personally i think BC is cheap tat, i remember when they first came out and there was nothing but issues with em. No idea if they are better now but still see people complaining bout them nocking from time to time. Tein super streets are pretty good for road use, dad had racelogic on his which were hard as nails and tbh ****, UK distributor went bust and dad had both rears **** all their fluid out and left hanging dry with no warranty cover when they went. Ended up having Teins fitted and he loves them, alot less harsh and crashy than the the racelogics and got a decent dealer network as well. All things considered alot is down to spring rates on what ever you buy

would do if i had the scoob lol

hehe :D

not worked it out on the type r hahaha my old 400bhp hawk managed 35mpg on a long run though :)

hahaha, roof scoop and tints is the way forward :D lol

cheers, hes had it about 5 years now, had engine rebuild, suspension change etc etc, hes selling in october when he retires and it will more than likley be broken cos its on 140k miles, but only 10k on the engine. tis a realy shame

much to learn my young padawan,,, hahahaha

Headgasket = bottom end build as well. It will more than likley cause the bearings to be pinched and they have a high chance of failing after a very short period. 2k is pretty cheap for a full build though. But as said, sounds like he is clueless, where is it?

haha, my dads is 65, this is is daily,

On the brakes as above. AP's are the daddy's :)

Yep, you old !Removed!!!!! im 33 haha

pic above is 08 sti

bearing would have gone long before now so wouldnt worry lol

how long has it been doing it for?

Mine was on roughly 105k, but it has had a hard life. It was used for a track car for a while, which is never going to be healthy for it. Until summit goes wrong i wouldn't worry about it, The Forrester wont be as highly tuned as the type r so should last alot longer
