Yeah yellow something.

Been a few years but my bug wrx has a still scoop. Fits pretty well imo

not for a while yet. most of the world is pretty much dependant on old fashioned power plants so at the mo electric cars dont make much sense . once we are able to run most of the cities on solar or some kind of renewable green source then we will see much more of this i reckon

stupid idea really. what if you get the train/taxi loads? i dont see this working at all

the wife got me a new oil cooler kit...probably wont arrive till after christmas though

i think silverlake scrappy posts small parts (alteast they did). they are based in hampshire. they posted me a altanator for my bug

is the maf faulty by any chance? and did you check the intercooler hose aswell?

sounds like something internal. maybe cam bearings? my speakers are naff so hard to tell

i use toyo proxies T1-R

i will give my honest opinion. it looks ok but i see imprezas with plates saying 'SCOOBY" or something like that all the time to the point its quite the norm now. but if you like it i say go for it chap.

im no expert but maybe the flywheel is ever so slightly warped? unlikley but one of the others will be along shortly

how old is the clutch?

maybe its the thermostat?

agree with jay. if your not desperate to sell then hold on and sell private. you will probably get loads more that way

coilovers will make more of a diff than OEM. depends how much you want to spend. i went with coilovers. and it made a huge difference with my T1-R tyres

i run 400hp and i use a 20g turbo. hope that helps

i own a 400bhp bugeye. and i can say you are better off getting a classic. much better handling imo

+1 on the bottom end wont add much to the cost and will give you peace of mind.

they are amazing. i had one on my closed deck build in my bug last service.

cant say i have had issues with the subaru one. i however use an aftermarket one as i got a deal on it

i got a spare one i got for my bugeye lying around someware. might even sell it for dirt cheap if you deff need one

id budget 20k just incase..as others have said. if you start cheaping out on stuff to keep in budget you will have big issues. trust me i did it once

engine wise its the usual. forged pistons,rods,bearings. i assume you will be getting a sti? as the blob gearbox are tough as nails. though for 650 id get a ppg kit just for assurance

mine idled about 700 or so IIRC. just cleaned my maf sensor and swore at it a few times and it felt a bit better, was a while ago but i think thats all i did

When I broke mine I just wedged a bottle in between the intercooler pipping and the light. Then just pit a rubber hose in there and worked a treat for a good 5k miles
