    Happy Birthday HKS!

  2. Hey thanks for the advise Gambit & pete few other forums said the same thing, Will look into that.Scooby Gee if you changed the MAF few weeks back you might wanna check your idle control valve, or if your battery hasn't even connected in a while I could've reset the ECU maybe?
  3. Hey all, As i explained before I have a 2000 turbo, and its relatively standard, uprated exhaust, uprated air intake are the only mods. Recently, when the car has warmed up, if i come to a stand still the car revs drop to almost 0, (sometimes it stalls) yet when its on boost, all seems to work fine... Anyone had any experience with this issue? Local garage and friend, (the previous owner) is also stumped by this, they've cleaned the idle control valve, throttlebody etc.. no luck it would seem? Open to suggestions that don't involve my local subaru dealership diagnosing a million different options all at 1000's of ££ to "fix" HKS
  4. ah man! I dislike hearing of any subaru in a crash, there isn't going to be many of these older shapes left in a few years if the current rate keeps up! And yes having a car "keyed" is just pathetic and kinda annoying. If you have a problem with someone just say it to them.. don't touch their car - although I can almost guarantee its part jealousy. Breaks are on the list "to be done this year" there just so expensive... 4 pot upgrades will require bigger discs, bigger pads.. heh. Out of curiosity, which tyres do you guys run yours on? The previous owner had some terrible issues with the brand "sunnys" so I've gone for Falkens, and I must admit, Im yet to loose control even in some difficult drives. Guess thats partly due to not overpushing your car to perform in such conditions, but tyres almost definitely help! Thanks,
  5. Hey all, I have a 1997 2000 Turbo, was just wondering, how to de-tango the side repeaters on the front wings, I've got myself the tinted/smoked indicators for the front, but can't seem to find a way to pop off those side jobbies.. or where to purchase clear/smoked ones from, heard possibly the mondeo ones fit, any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks,
  6. Well some engine related info, its on its 3rd engine which is an imported auto lump (converted to manual), so hopefully its been "ragged" a bit less, this is the engine that came with the car when i bought it, so quite happy with that, and also its on its 2nd gearbox, so all is being maintained and so far its proving reliable, power is always there, never had a management light (touch wood) so far. Its got a fully uprated exhaust stainless system with high flow sports cats. Aftermarket air intake, new brake calipers with braided lines. (unfortunately only 2pots atm, looking to advance to 4pots soon) Now the body, its got your usual wear and tear chips at the front, but for a shell that's done 180k miles, its in very tidy condition. 1 minor set back is the front passenger wing has been keyed with its previous owner. Will be getting that resprayed very soon. Thanks
  7. Well, the only cosmetic changes left to do will be to "de-tango" her. Hate orange full stop haha! - And I don't like big body kits and bigger spoilers etc. Other than that, its got an imported auto engine, converted to manual gearbox, aftermarket air intake, full stainless exhaust system and well maintained. Been tempted to put a front mount & bigger turbo. But shes very reliable at the moment, wondering if I tempt fate it will all go to pot ha! Thanks.
  8. Heres a few snaps of my latest Subaru, had before a bugeye non turbo model, upgraded to a (what I think is the best shape) Classic 2000 Turbo! What you think guys? Will post up some decent snaps i took of her not so long ago. Had her over a year now :) Love her.
  9. This is my Classic 2000 Turbo! I got new plastic door trim sprayed up waiting to go on! :)
