Geek alert from me but engine cleaner, leave for ten mins, brush in with a tooth brush which takes a lil while. Light steam wash and repeat. Then WD which is outstanding stuff for removing oil, brush in and jet wash. Make sure your engine is warm before you do it. If your running a top mount intercooler with a dump valve keep away from it -
Ok guys just putting the feelers out there for a POTENTIAL meet 22nd November 11am to meet in Tesco Neath just off the A465, breakfast and then convoy down to mumbles? Tesco neath is easy to get to from the Valley literally A465 all the way.... from Cardiff, Bridgend M4 then A465. Its the most central place i can think of. Brywithay if you want to have a word with Cymraeg guys the more the better. I will see if i can get an area blocked off for us in tescos i do a great deal of business with them...not shopping now guys....Let me know whos in. Haydnp1987 dont forget your pennies for the slot machines! lol

This is my much loved classic subaru wrx 2000. I did post some photos on here a few months ago when she was totally standard but recently i have got a bit excited with the toys. I have added a new oversized top mount intercooler, 3" ninja from the turbo, decat up pipe, imported 32mm spacers, crystals all on the front and reduced number plate size. I am trying to keep the body looking as standard as possible. If you are thinking of a front mount intercooler but dont want the trouble of cutting and fitting then i strongly recommend importing an oversized top mount as its easy to fit and i have had some serious gains from it.

First scooby meet arranged by Danpow
-
Fantastic example -
Iv heard of people doing it but never felt the need mate. Not a weekend job, half hour/45 mind with the right tools? Make sure you locate all the screws out of the door card and start popping the door from the bottom then work around and up. Check behind the actual door leaver and in the handle then pop pop pop. If you feel it's getting complicated for any reason, take photos on your phone and refer back to them. Lil trick I learned after I kept finding spare bits lol!!!
-
Either off the runner or the window reg. door card off, remove the plastic cover keep the switch connected and move it up and down to see if the runner is moving up and down as well as check to see if the window is still in the correct position. If not it's the regulator or motor as some call it. Common on these a real pain in the tail. You said you can hear it and the others work so the fuse is ok but worth a little look anyway. Second hand motor about £20-30?

Nice lil meet guys for first time, great to see haydnp1987 representing some serious power. Danpow cheers for organising, next time all welcome down my way do the mumbles run or gower run? Offer is there. I took some pics and will upload when I'm back in the office tomorrow!!!
-
Haydnp1987 you still meeting tomorrow? If so il have a lil look at it for you. Il bring a blank invoice lol
-
I'd say airbag but I just looked under mine but I'd assume it would be under the carpet on these. Found a quid though! When I pulled the seats out before I had the same connector, as long as nothing is on the dash don't stress too much but I would slide the seat right back tourch under and have a good butchers. It won't be far from the end as its a short wire.
-
Il go out and have a look under mine now
-
Is the top even connected to anything? It looks like it's not? Defo not an amp wire it's pinned
-
I would say that's for an air bag my friend. I've got a track car and when I pulled the seats out I had a similar connector. Upload a better picture so I can see. Do you have any lights on the dash like the seatbelt light?
-
-
Welcome, nice example there. Turbo smart do a nice Bov for these if you want a nice valve, bit pricey but a great chatter. Literally just have a look on eBay. As for exhaust it depends what you want really, some like a cannon as a tail pipe others more subtle, I would decide what look you want and start shopping. As for mot like stants says it does help if you know a person to HELP but these run clean engines anyway but with removal of cats and not having HELP I wouldn't like to guess the outcome.
-
Hay all, we all still good for tomorrow? I've had a pass from her indoors and just put go go juice in the car ready. Rain is forecast but my wipers work so there's no excuses.
-
Il chuff a bung up his bum before I do the car lol! You always get one to spoil the party Gambit your right. lucky I didn't have anti lag installed, be banging like a Latvian hooker then! I love this lil site in all fairness, tidy bunch of people on here.
-
Just decat it, like phila67 said scooby drivers are an easy target. You are right there are far noisier things on the road. Nothing against police but grow up. I remember I was pulled over about ten years ago and I noticed the police cars tyre was bald and pointed it out.... Big mistake.... Turned my car over from bonnet to boot...one rule for one and another for another...with regards to the decat I feel the difference with mine with respect to fuel and power gains.

No I didn't get a ticket, he done a lap of my car id assume to check my tyres. He took my driving license and went back to his car, again i assume to do his checks then after he clearly couldn't find anything on me he went off about the exhaust? ..........I FELT like I was at home and the mrs was looking for any excuse for an argument?!?!?
