    haha yeah :) you'll have to pop in for a brew sometime if I'm home, normaly at work of course around that time though
  4. It's just a cable, so could have gone boot end. as far as not working ont he key as well sounds like maybe the latch is playing up? do they still have a gap into the the boot in the center seat?
  5. ah, i do like a consensus :)
  6. With the death of the volvo im looking at new daily's. I have the possibility of a 2006 hawk WRX wagon. Engines already been done so don't have to worry about that. But would it be wrong to have 3 scoobs in the family? My mrs's bug sport, my weekend toy Type R and then a dialy Wagon wrx?
  7. Have they actually fixed it? they are onto v4 of the 2.5 and still a dog

    I'm guessing that should have been tidgy rather than 'todays' hahaha Not sure where school junction is, but assumign about 8ish then 99.999999% was me, don't know any others like it around the area. where you in yours? didn't see you
  14. I'm sick of seeing him ducking peoples cars up matey, i made the same warnings before piggy went and people came out saying hes fine etc etc yet low and behold comes back and it has issues. There's also a new thread going on about him on SN which is yet again him getting a kicking with fault, engines destroyed by detted out pistons etc etc, https://www.scoobynet.com/engine-management-and-ecu-remapping-453/1046445-your-thoughts-on-my-map.html He doesn't have the tech knowledge to cope when something isn't 100% ideal conditions, he doesn't road test after a map which is really bad practice. Even a broken clock is wright twice a day.
  15. Stay clear of dung khan, he managed to duck up pig's car and many others
  16. Something def not right, while you dont need to rev it all teh way to the redline you should easily get it to 6k
  17. classic sti wagon ;)
  18. caught the little sh1te, he had about 30 but chucked them all into a hedge just before i grabbed him. only managed to find 3 of mine.
  19. mine got nicked so stick with good old black plastic now
  20. aye diff was miss matching so rear wheels were going at different speed to fronts, quick diff swap and jobs a fish. As far as the ratio being out it needs to be matched perfectly or you'll get issues that will destroy your diff.
  21. a cunning plan baldrick,,,,,, hahaha
  22. Afraid its not, its pure luck. I know cars that have had 2 engines in 15k miles, some that were babied and failed but then also know some that were abused like a redheaded tiwanese hooker and are still going strong. Here's the 2k long thread on SN about it, https://www.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-general-1/828990-2008-2010-2-5ltr-engine-failures.html It's just pure luck
  23. haha, mrs would kill me lol still got the type R though so its only the daily
  24. If its any conciliation im kinda int eh same boat, my daily volvo went bang so now tryign to decide on a replacement. couple of hawk wrx's etates are available and im pondering on the 2.5 issues or leave it be
  25. roughly 4.5k for a proper rebuild assuming no damage. You could possibly get a hawk wrx estate forged, bigger turbo, suspension and brakes for that sort of money and it will be pretty bullet proof. But your gonna be at the top end of your budget. or you could take the chance on the engine. Blob WRX would be cheaper option, engine will be fine at 300-350 http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/subaru/impreza-wrx/subaru-impreza-wrx/7049555
