Guy finds mystery black bag in the door of his SUV
Apart from the local drug lord/ biker gang or Mafia tracking you down, I'd Hand it in and when its not claimed you get it back. Nice and legal.

UPDATE. Subaru Takata recall! 2004-2007 Impreza WRX/STI
As part of its quality processes Fuji Heavy Industries, parent company to Subaru Automobile has issued an official recall campaign relating to possible front passenger air bag SPI inflator failure. The recall notice applies only to Impreza models (including WRX and STI) built between 2004 and 2007. The recall does not affect any other models in the Subaru range. The vehicles affected are equipped with front passenger air bag SPI inflators manufactured by air-bag maker Takata. The recall has received widespread media coverage as Takata supplies a number of Japanese vehicle manufacturers. It has been found that the inflators in the passenger airbag may experience an alteration over time, potentially leading to over-aggressive combustion in the event of an airbag deployment, leading to risk of injury. Subaru UK is advising owners of all Impreza models built between 2004 and 2007 to contact their local dealer at their earliest convenience to have the front passenger airbag inflator replaced free of charge. Please note, this applies to passenger side airbags only and we therefore advise you avoid seating occupants in the front passenger seat until the work has been carried out. For details of your nearest dealer, please see the Dealer Locator on www.subaru.co.uk. - See more at: http://subaru.co.uk/news/subaru-recall-notice-impreza-models-2004-2007/#sthash.sQv6dp0z.dpuf UPDATE The Important parts of the email we got that you need to know at the moment.

Stop Spacers Scraping
You could get thinner tyres ie 225 instead of 245 or roll the arches, however easiest and cheapest thing to do is dump the spacers.

What have you done on your games today?
Got my warlock up to 30, just trying to do the weekly heroic and get my 1st exotic weapon. It's the Archon Priest mission, I've tried about 5 times and it's so hard especially when someone always quits halfway through making it impossible lol

What have you done on your games today?
Been doing the new content on Destiny with Compact barbecue. The wolves content is pretty gnarly, the canons are a hoot, but I've yet to find any chest when I have an ether key, so far completed 5 of them but 3 times no key and the other 2 I couldn't find the chest :(. Other noob error was dismantling a level 36 light piece of armour by mistake :(

URGENT NEED HELP impreza engine swap possible?
Yeah it's possible but not really economically viable. You'd need to swap out the whole drive train, upgrade the brakes, swap out the wiring loom and ECU for starters prob a thousand other things needed aswell. Then you'd need to inform DVLA and insurance about the swap which would whack up insurance costs and road tax. As Jay said you'd be better off selling and buying a WRX or STI at the end of the day.

awd turbo engine help
Have you checked for fault codes? If it doesn't throw up any codes it's prob a faulty coil pack. My classic was running a bit lumpy and after replacing coil packs it ran much better.

Time for a new clutch - any suggestions ??
The only places I can recommend are a bit of a drive, Dan at Surrey Subaru Specalists in Camberly or Len at Subaru4you in Newbury, both would require a fair drive but worth the trip. Len has done a clutch for me and Dan has done a fair few bits on my classic when when I had it.
