  1. Welcome, Blue and Gold are the fastest Colour :)
  2. I live near Twickenham, and have never used anyone around here. I've always gone to the guys in Surrey as they have some really good specialist there. Surrey Subaru Specalist in camberly. https://www.facebook.com/surrey.subarus is closest TFS who have moved to Aldershot hants. 01252 330366 are ver good and worth the journey.
  3. Lol don't say that, I know far less than I think I do. Just did a bit of googling.
  4. The limiter is mechanical in that it ECU controllers the fueling by taking a reading from the speedo. So to delimit You need to get a delimiter/converter. This fits between the speedo cable parts and has a little gear box that changes the speedo cable and needle to read as MPH. Best bet for this the converter would be Subaru breakers like South East Imprezas 07891129485, Jap Performance parts + 44 (0)1293 520090. They would prob have an import they can take one off. You then need to get a speedo dial that is in MPH, the breakers may have these but will prob only sell the whole binacle rather than just the dials. I got mine from http://www.lockwoodinternational.co.uk/subaru-dials-c192.html.
  5. Momentum is 95 Ron + octane booster and additives to make it 99 Ron V-power nitro is refined at 100 Ron so it's a better fuel and has less crap added to it. I've noticed a difference in MPG since switching to nitro, I'm about 1-1.5mpg per tank better off. Like Tescos says every little helps.
  6. Offer finishes 15/06 Just aswell I checked before filling up tonight. https://www.bespokeoffers.co.uk/consumer/offers/save-5p-per-litre-on-v-power-nitro-fuel-at-shell--c73b2
  7. Welcome, what scooby are you getting 22B?
  8. I've just ordered some Type UK Stickers from these guys maybe they can help. http://www.subarupartsstore.co.uk/category/Badges_and_Decals,b.html A lot of the Surrey Scoobies members use Pro_R as they are based locally, not heard anyone having issues with them before. Not that its any comfort to you but lets hope this is a onr off. Hope you get it sorted.
  9. Friday I was doing some bits on the car and had the radio on whilst messing with the leccy windows. After about 10 mins or faffing around I tried to start the car and the battery was flat. Jump started, then took the car for a 15 min drive, got home and all seemed well. Sunday drove the car for a quick trip to the shops, got back everything was fine. Got in the car this morning, started fine. on the way to waork, stopped at the paper shop and the car wouldnt start again. Is it because the Pioneer AVIC-F940BT Head unit takes so much juice to run it? Is it my battery that is giving up? Can I get a stronger battery than recomended by Subaru? Ta :)
  10. Welcome, which car are you aspiring too?
  11. Great news :)
  12. found this on the Outback forum. talks about a rubber cap you remove and line up the crank with a gap and use that to lock it. http://www.subaruoutback.org/forums/61-general-discussions/47370-crank-shaft-pulley-tigtening-ideas.html
  13. Have a word with Pete at Southeast imprezas, he had quite a few cars for breaking recently he may have what you are looking for. https://www.facebook.com/search/results.php?q=SouthEast+Imprezas+SouthEast+Imprezas&init=public#!/southeastimprezas
  14. Hello :)
  15. On of my Local Scooby club members has recently become ambassador for UK Abarth and is racing this year around Europe in the Trofeo Benelux 500 series (Spa Francorchamps/Nurbugring/Colmar/Zandwoort/Zolder). He has to build a Driver Profile to help promote himself and more importantly UK Abarth. He was given this opportunity by the 'Make It Your Race' program in 2012 where he was the UK finalist. If any of you kind people would like to help support by clicking 'Like' 'Share' on his profile that would be Great. https://www.facebook.com/#!/JamesJBrazier
  16. Welcome to the Club. You can do a CEL check and this will give you a code number for the fault. A thread on scabbynet has details on reading and resetting the ECU. http://bbs.scoobynet...elp-please.html
  17. My advice for more power would be, make sure you can stop before you can go :)
  18. I had major greif getting a busted speedo out, I tried everything I could to remove it. After posting on another forum for advise, the advise was just smash the speedo cable retaing nut (orange plastic bit that screws into the gear box) to get it out. Due to the lack of room in the engine bay I could not get any angle on the orange plastic bit and ended up taking to a garage. They dropped the rear of the box down and managed to remove the cable for me. Cost me about £50.
  19. WOW! thats some crasy driving there!
  20. Lovely car welcome.
  21. Great looking car, not to sure about the box on the roof in the 2nd pic though :D
  22. Jay maybe this instead of the ute?
