What car is it for?

Ej25 what? And what is currently in your blobeye?

Ad08r's are good, and drop your tyre pressure. You do not want them getting over 30 psi once they've heated up

Naz, sorry for the late reply. Ive not had any issues with mine. And yes completely vent to atmosphere.

I got a HKS ssqv from scoobyworld, I'm pleased with mine on my ppp blobeye. but don't buy cheap from eBay

Should have got a certificate with the car ideally. And it would have pro drive silicone pipes from the intercooler. But get it on a dyno, that will tell you. Should see about 260bhp give or take a little.

No worries :)

Ask someone other then your own insurer though and see what they say before you tell your own

Should be an import, but let them know it is from within the eu and see what they say.

Fitted a new Mishimoto header tank late last night and changed coolant. Makes the the rest of my bay look awful lol.

From what I've read single to twin = twin scroll sump, oil pick up, dipstick and tubing ,twin scroll equal length headers ,twin up pipe ,pipe work for turbo ie oil and coolant, twin scroll down pipe. So that should mean twin to single you want to get sump, oil pick up, dipstick and tubing, unequal lengths headers, up pipe, down pipe, oil and water lines to turbo. A turbo and remap. Ive got a number for a decent breaker if you want it to see what bits he can get you, he is very knowledgeable so would be able confirm exactly what you need.

Only place I know is on canvey island which will likely be too far.

what are you using the car for? I've got advan ad08r's which are incredible but will wear too quick if your daily driving. Before that I had Goodyear eagle f1's which are good for daily driving.

Boost will come in properly over 3500rpm, so as you lifted A little off the throttle you may have been crossing that point and using the turbo. Play around accelerating up to about 5000rpm with foot to the floor and foot halfway and you will get a feel for it. the tachometer is your friend and you will start to learn where you are on and off of boost. Better yet get a boost gauge and if there are any turbo issues you will soon see.

There is a difference identifiable by the pcd of your wheels when looking at coilovers, as I think the later newage sti's have a larger hub. Yours will be 5x100 so bugeye wrx and STI will fit, blobeye wrx (not STI) and hawkeye wrx (not STI) will also fit. is there that much difference in rates for a wagon?

Might be worth taking the wing off, mine had a couple of little bubbles forming outside. I had my wings off and it had definitely started from the inside holding moist dirt and crap.

Has the mechanic given you an opinion and quote already? Are there any other signs that it could be head gasket? when was the coolant last changed? It has never been refilled with just water has it? I know Mishimoto's radiators come with lifetime guarantees so it might be worth replacing with one of there's, then if it breaks again they should replace it.

I went for Godspeed's j hook discs all round with rc5 front pads and carbon rears. Also fitted hel brake lines and used performance friction fluid. really good setup and no fade on 4 x 20 minute sessions at brands hatch

I got eibach front 23mm and rear 24mm from demon tweeks, made the car a lot more stable in corners feels like a better balance between over and understeer, letting me power on a little sooner / harder out of corners. They come properly powder coated unlike the whitelines that are made for Australian sun. just keep in mind if you want to do the front you will have to drop the lower subframe to undo the arb mounts.

Im right on the Essex side of the tunnel so will join up with you

Hope you don't mind, I've booked on the stand as well.

Still got it? Any pics?
