Got to love a project ....... Good for you.

Those brake pads, are they those new ones you get that let off little or no brake dust??? :D PMSL

Hey and welcome,

Get stuck in and post up your ride!!! :D

Hi guys, just introducing myself, I'm a new Outback owner :-) 

eric

Hey and welcome,,, would like to see a pic of you out backing!! (Oops) sorry a pic of your outback!!

Catch ya up soon!!!

Hi and welcome,

Nice motor good upgrades too :D. Nice to hear about the handling for a change instead of power power power!! Lol

See ya around

Weird???

Might seem silly but have disconnected the Battery??

My only changed after resetting the Ecu by disconnecting the Battery and connecting again after a few minutes then all was fine again?

Other than that - it's a weird one this

If the boost solenoid isn't working you will get a BIG lag when driving, easiest way to explain it would be like doing a quick emergency stop and going again!! Lol

I had this problem, but I found a pipe not connected that was causing my lag.

You've said you've done the air/fuel filter and plugs so that's good, Mass sensor and Boost solenoid might need cleaning?? Some guys told me this could be causing this too?? - worth a try?? Good old elbow grease!!! :D

Cheers guys,

Found the problem and I feel like a right banana now!! :D

Found a hose that has popped off and not connected!! Lol it was tucked under a bigger pipe so I couldn't see it quickly until I routed around more and spent time looking instead of crying!!!! Lol

All connected and running like a mean machine again :D

Yes down pipe was removed,

Boost solenoid came up on google once or twice, so will check and give that a clean....... Hoping it's something quick and easy to fix!!! :D

Really grateful for the help / advice

When I was mapped my boost would hit the limit in 4th and give me the cut. Duncan raised my limiter to avoid it.

Have you made any changes that could increase boost? Possibly sticky wastegate or actuator.

No nothing, only thing changed was a new clutch fitted last Friday but the whole mass system came out??

Possible over boost and boost cut?

Does it feel like its ran out of fuel?

It only on hard acceleration, now you say it it's like the boost cuts out, then it cuts in again if I ease off the pedal again

A jolt like a cut in power? Could be fuel cut. If low on fuel and exiting a corner you will get fuel cut. I've had it a few times. Even as high as just below half tank.

Like a fuel issue not getting in quick enough or lack of air????

No leaks that I can see?? Fuel filter????

Taking the Scooby for a spin and get a really hard jolt on quick acceleration is this due to dirty airfilter or a possible bad spark plug??

Airfilter is only a new one a few months back a K&N? Possible airflow??

Any thoughts??

Thanks in advance

All added :D

No problems adding from I-pad

Hello and welcome!!

Enjoy the new toy!!! :D

My mate has his own garage so might be able to borrow a few tools! :D

Hey I'm in Yapton, I'm happy to come and have a look for you? :D

Welcome from down the road, I'm Yapton/Arundel way, we have a few meets around the area so would be good to see the new toy out and about!!!!! :D

Just getting a new clutch fitted and changing the gearbox oil too, but the garage is saying his suppliers are saying EP and non-EP?? Not sure if either will matter?? The car isn't tracked or raced....

What grade is best??

75-90?

Which oil is best to use for a Classic WRX STI Import V1 '94 model??

Thanks in advance

:D was Xbox 360 now over to the Xbox one

Welcome and nice motor,

We all have different models including turbo / non-turbo as long it's a Scooby then it's in the club!!! :D

You've got some good roads to "try it out" and she how she goes!!

Enjoy it!!

Nice and welcome :D

Good shout that Scooby Pete

With my side skirts and front added I can't get a jack under either, I've brought a jack that's meant for lowered cars it works for the back but not sides or front still!! (Doh)

I went back to use the normal jack supplied with the car and it works best on the sides, prop up one side stick the car on a stand, back down with the jack then the same the other side!! A bit of a long winded way but works for me!! :D
