  1. 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.
  2. My gamer tag is Scooby Pete. Let me know yours and I'll add you.
  3. I have a warlock lvl 23 and a lvl 18 Hunter. Can't stand the crucible aspect of the game so generally just run around doing strike missions from time to time.
  4. Heres mine just after cleaning it elbow grease no steam :) Good tip clean the engine before the body!!! Products used: R222 Total auto wash (Non-toxic) & 303 Aerospace Protectant http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/r222-total-auto-wash-cat2.html http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/303-aerospace-protectant-cat19.html Shop around can be got cheaper than links R222 Total auto wash. 1. apply this liberally to your engine compartment, ensuring anything sensitive to liquid is covered obviously (cone air filters etc) - Leave for 5 mins after spraying (do not allow to dry) then agitate with a brush/sponge etc while removing with a light water spray. 2. Leave engine bay to dry, or dry manually with a soft cloth. 303 Aerospace Protectant 3. Apply this liberally to all surfaces within the engine bay, plastics, metals, the lot - Allow to dry - 1-4 hours. Ignore what the product labelling says about wiping on with a cloth and polishing off...just spray ensuring a good coverage and leave. 4. Cup of tea. 5. remove any overspray on non-engine bay paintwork, or windscreen with a soft cloth. 6. Another Cup of tea cos you're done. Start with a warm engine as it helps the 303 to dry quicker. Try not to get too much oversrpay on exterior paint, as it will remove most polish systems also. Won't harm the paint though. Here's some links to previous threads and tips. http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/6846-get-your-engine-bays-out-for-the-ladsgirls/?hl=%2Bengine+%2Bclean http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/9179-engine-bay-cleaning/?hl=%2Bengine+%2Bclean
  5. In order to tie in with the Jap Performance Parts open day http://www.japperformanceparts.co.uk (read all about that by clicking here), the meet will take place at The Heathy Farm in Crawley. Full address for the pub is: The Heathy Farm Balcombe Road Crawley West Sussex RH10 3NQ Full details on the pub can be found here. Meet will take place at 1 PM as normal and, as we are on some one else's turf, no silliness please!
  6. There are far more scoobs around than there ever were Integrales, cosworths or quartos, it's the lower production numbers of these cars that make them a classic. It's only going to be limited editions that will keep their value, rb5s, series McRae and unmolested P1's from the classic era that I think will be the true classics, UK turbos and wrx's are 2 a penny so I doubt they will ever be a classic worth keeping hold of.
  7. Nope they are off an STI and are not part of any performance pack I'm aware of. A PPP pack is an upgraded back box, centre pipe and remap, doesn't included a brake upgrade.
  8. I got loads made up last year and we used them at the show. Sold out though :( worked out to about £10.50 a set from what I remember. Glauson works for the company that made them for us, I dare say we can can organise some more but Im not in a postion to oder them and hang on to them untill they are all sold. So it may be a case of ordering direct as you all want them. I'll dig out the relevant stuff when I get home.
  9. Yeah denstiny just ends up grinding Strike missions, collecting bounties or doing multiplayer maps. You need to collect so much stuff to get the higher level armour and weapons it gets boring pretty quickly. Seems most of the good stuff is gotten through the Crucible (multiplayer) and you just get raped by all the higher lvl players all the time.
  10. Yeah Brands and Donnington. 3 races each venue. Next Race is 09/05 at Thruxton.
  11. Try ITV player on the web for catch up.
  12. Time to get another car me thinks. You may spend upto 3k getting a rebuild and that's the engine sorted, but then in a years time it'll be something else that needs sorting. If the car is sellable I'd sell it on and get a new car.
  13. I would drain and refill the cooling system, it's cheap and easy to do and may well solve the problem.
  14. Race day 2 is on ITV4 right now.
  15. have to say for me Star Wars pretty much defined my Chilhood. 7 years old when the 1st film came out. Relived my childhood in my 30's rebuying all the Toys, have a collection of 100's of books including novels, reference books. A real stormtrooper helmet (not a cheap copy) I even have an Adidas originals Wookie Jacket. I've had just about every game they've released and this new Battlefront looks awsome. 2015 is a great year for us Star Wars geeks :D
  16. I wouldn't kick her out of bed for farting :D
  17. Yeah as Jay said its far more than just an engine. You'd be better off just selling the 1.5 and getting a WRX or STI.
  18. Looks like it was Listed for a 2nd ride that went for £870 :D
  19. Have read of this thread, It may help. http://uk.subaruownersclub.com/forums/topic/4068-newbie-needs-advice/?hl=lock#entry21442
  20. If its recently had the system drained to replace the thermostat it's more likely an air lock. If there's no mayo in the water it's doubtful it's the head gasket. The scoob is notorious for getting airlocks, so I reckon this is the most likley cause. Drain and refill the system and I reckon that will cure it.
  21. Destiny is ok, I found it got to be a bit of grind after awhile when you complete all the missions, it's just repeat them with a higher level of nme to continue levelling up. The party play is pretty good though. Been playing Titan fall for the last few days, I had bought the season pass so thought it was a waste not to play the DLC maps, then they go and give them away for free :(
  22. I'm leaving my Stock this time round, my classic had quite a bit done to it, biggest issue with the hatch is that theres not really much you can do from a UK point of supply, everything has to be from Japan or the States. here's a list of shops I was given when I 1st got my hatch. http://www.just-subaru.com/ http://www.japanparts.com/ http://www.avojdm.com/ http://prorracing.co.uk/ http://www.scoobyparts.com/ http://www.scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/index.php UK supply wise off the shelf there's really only Exhausts, a few body kit bits, suspension and thats about it, everything else is going have to be bespoke. If you want advice on power mods etc have a chat with Stu at TFS racing, he has a section on Surrey Scoobies forum or just give him a call.
