Scooby Pete

Welcome :)

I miss the sucking and whooshing of an induction kit and DV :( it,s about £700 new for both bits and a remap, far too much for some extra noise. Whish I'd kept the HKS SSQV from the classic would have only needed the fitting kit then :(

I've no idea what mine are at the mo the monkeys at Kwikfit did it and supposedly used "Nitrogen". Although I expect with thier system at least some Air will have got into it negating the whole point of using Nitrogen.

I'm more than happy to bow to greater wisdom. I'm deff not a mechanic, I'll have a go at most things myself the harder jobs usually end up me posting for help or a mechanic fixing my fix lol. I just think I know something or have read it somewhere and resort to searching other forums or google. You can normally find something on SDIC, nasoic, iwsti or even scabbynet. I will often be proved wrong or at least half right :D Re the closed deck if no4 melted on the current deck, why not go closed deck just to be sure?

Bit late, still it's handy for the future. Best way to get bushes out is to use a long bolt with a washer a nut and a socket. Put the bolt through the bush and then the square hole in the socket, the socket needs to be big enough to line up with the metal housing you are removing the bush from, add washers and nut, the washers need to be just smaller than the metal housing but bigger than the centre of the bush. Now do the nut up at the socket end and the bush will pull its self through the mount and into the socket. Should come out easily using this method.

The clips seem too wide at the top so won't sit in the channel. I've tried to use an implement to push them in but they just dropped down again. I'll have another try at the weekend.

TBH if you are going for a rebuild I would junk the engine you have and look at basing the engine on a closed deck block which is far more durable than the open deck, the easiest way to tell is that a Closed deck block will have crosshatching on the front of the block. They are much more durable and less prone to no4 cylinder getting hot, as has happend to yours. I know South East Imprezas had some closed deck engines for sale.

what that stuff Cahrlie Sheen Drinks?

I have put 2 in a vice to make the top a little narrower. Still dont stay in every now and then one will fall out.

Don't know no updates from him. :(

Know what you mean with the Hatch, some one asked me if I had a FOCUS!!!!!! Also when I had the Classic every scoob waved, now I hardly get any waves in the Hatch, still love it to bits though :D

that some tasty treats lavished on the car :)

Hey Salsa King, your wind delflectors are they from the Polish company Heko? If so did you get the metal clips to work without modifing them? I have had my clips fall out, so I took them out completly and the rear passenger ones fell off :( Luckily the windows were open and it fell in the car

If you want to find local meets check out the SIDC forums they have a South West Section there. Also try [Edit]Scabbynet[/EDIT] they have regional sections there, the only club i know that meets regularly besides Surrey is South East Scoobies, but again thats even further than Surrey lol.

Rang Subaru and theres no way to change it :( !Removed! Stupid idea, if you have someone with you you can gtee they will grab the handel just as you press the button the 2nd time and the whole rigmarole has to start again!

Oh this would be handy to have as I want to change the way the car locks, fed up with the central locking not unlocking all doors on just one press.

2nd the recomendation for Scooby Worlds range of Exhausts I ran a Scoobyworld AfterBurner, then the Afterburner Vortex. Quite loud. but not as loud as Blitz NurSpec or HKS Super Dagger.

Nice Cars. :)

totaly agree, I think Gambit should have his avatar banned :)

Have you tried Scoobynet? They have a large for sale section on that board. My local Subaru breakers have plenty of cars in at the moment. Call Pete at South East Imprezas 07891129485 he may be able to help.

Nice :)

Dont where I have got this rep from???? I will bow out aswell as I don't have a clue. Maybe contact your local Subaru specalist??

Welome :) If it were me I'd go with the larger STI/P1 type Spoiler.

great work so far :)

Brakes is deff 1 area I won't go "Cheap" on. I'll always go for EBC stuff, to me thats cheap compared to AP and Brembo :)
