Put it this way, I had a broken ring on my 2.3 Mazda 6 and there was no smoke at all until heavy acceleration and even then couldnt notice it while driving. That was going through a lot of oil too!!

They would def be the wrong stroke. Short answer, dont do it.

Welcome! A man with a plan! Not a bad one at that! Good base example? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2003-SUBARU-IMPREZA-WRX-SILVER-IN-EXCELLENT-CONDITION-BLOBEYE-/222012291767?hash=item33b0f6bab7:g:KOEAAOSw5dNWr5Sh

Welcome! Yes I am liking the Dynamics too! Looks very tidy

Red is nice and slagish

Using a litre of oil every 500 miles is a lot to me. The mileage/wear cant be high enough for that sort of use! What did they actually do as a full rebuild? Is there a possibility this couldve been an issue before and linked to the head gasket issue? You would expect to see white smoke if it was something serious (Ringland) but you say your not getting anything

Think Im going to give the boot a go, looks plenty big enough

Well coil packs aren't mega money and if you trust the garage I would try that and while they are down that way get that leakage test done

Good job its going in to the garage tomorrow, just noticed my left headlight isnt working!! Dont know anything about HID's so hopefully its an easy fix

The first thing I would look at doing is a cylinder leakage test if your struggling this much. Good starting place to build on.

Interesting so see it holding up so well! Very impressive 1/4 with the kit btw. I have an Exedy good for 360bhp thats nice enough for daily driving. Shouldnt be silly money.

Sorry dude.

Yes mate. Helps that the Mrs step dad is a VW main dealer technician too

Bollox so I did it wrong? I just did that because the link form was inactive and rushing as usual . Whats the crack now then for being on the stand?

I had to look a couple of times before I noticed it. I went to the ticket page https://www.eticketing.co.uk/santapodraceway/default.aspx and scroll down to the first 9th July which is Japshow Weekend Admission. Just followed it on from there. The early bird was until midnight yesterday.

All paid up for the weekend, just in time too for the early bird Moved my hol departure date to accommodate. Im one step closer to being single again

Better pic with new canards and original scoop.

Blobtastic!! Looks really nice, wheels and mirrors look good. Would be a shame to let it go

Does look good, just the right amount!

Hi welcome. What sort of things you thinking about? Is it standard at the moment?

Wow, nice job! When can you do mine? Did you use a buffer machine or just elbow grease?

Drained the battery because I had the boot open and interiors on for far too long . Did lead to the purchase of a battery pack though which is a good thing! Took off massive carbon bonnet scoop and put standard one back on. Fitted some carbon canards

Yeah pitty, I assume they were a good deal. The air ride will be set for the picture but least you can use that fitment as a reference if you decide to keep looking

Ive been using a £30 full cover off ebay for a few weeks now and it seems to be fine. Its not fully weatherproof but I just use it on frosty days, not all the time.
