Hi Guys, I've been MIA for nearly a year! I've been working in secret to achieve my goals i set with my Blob STI and also dealing with a lot of personal life rubbish to go with it! I'm glad to be back in the world again and even happier to announce that I've managed to achieve the happy state of having the car where I want. After lengthy times in the paint shop, scraped knuckles laid underneath it and a trip to the remap centre at Area 52 I have found a finish point (for now!) New sharks fins, fog lamp covers and new arches for the exterior. A full service so I know she is on top form and for peace of mind. A new hayward and scott up pipe decat and a map got me to the 330Bhp/310 lb/ft mark with no issues at all! I can finally sit back and enjoy looking out of the window at her and putting my foot down to feel the power! Insert cheesy smile :)

Hi Guys, I've seen around 3 new scooby's in the area recently! A blue blob/bug WRX with a low spoiler who I got a nod off the other day. A Black hawkeye STI looking very clean who also gave a nod. A blue STI with the gold wheels that I've seen the once and my mam keeps seeing and breaking her neck to tell me she's seen haha. Anyone on here by any chance?

Try pole position UK. They've got a O2C blue one in they're breaking. I had a couple of bits off it
-
What color panel??
-
How much for the gear knob??

I recently got a bonnet off one being broken buy pole position UK. It's a totally different color to this one though. It's in the O2C paint code. Might be worth seeing how much they want for it then spraying?

@Sandals Sorry, I didn't realize mine was already off! I would have snapped it straight up but the pipe has already been replaced.

Don't know if anyone else has named their car? I'm interested to see what names we've all gone for! Mine is Percy the Preza

Induction kit. To or not to that's the question
Anthbax replied to Anthbax's topic in General Subaru Chat
That looks loads better than the original airbox! I'm currently sorting a decat downpipe and a fuel filter ready for a remap. I've decided not to go with the induction kit because its sounding like its all about the noise and not the gains that normal cars would get with them. Thank you all for your input, you've helped a lot. -
When will this be going down guys? I'd be well up getting involved if I'm back from offshore!

Welcome, Nice looking motor there!

Is this to remove the centre cat and will it fit a blobeye STI? If so do you still have it??

Hi guys, Looking for a front passenger mud flap in blue with white STI logo. It's for a 2004 Blobeye. Bit of a long shot i know but ill settle for a front pair if anyone's got any. It would appear I'm missing just one! Don't see the point in having to buy a full set just to replace one. Have attached a picture of the type I'm after. Thanks

I've run Good Year eagle F1 asymmetric 2's on my last two cars and I've gone for eagle F1 asymmetric 3's on my STI. I really rate them, especially in the wet.

Induction kit. To or not to that's the question
Anthbax replied to Anthbax's topic in General Subaru Chat
One of the main reasons of deciding whether or not to put one on was for the whistle, the other for the look. The only thing that has held me back was whether or not i would need additional mods to sort things like fueling etc. There seems to be a lot of for and against with them. I suppose it would help for fitting spark plugs etc due to not having to remove the air system to get to them. @david1972 How does it look sat on the car? have you done anything else to go with it?? -
Welcome, That's a nice piece of car!

Anthbax replied to Anthbax's topic in General Subaru Chat
If I was to do it, it would have to be KnN or another suitably decent make. I just wouldn't like to fit it and find out I was going to screw something up and have to then have it mapped. I'm in the process of having it serviced as I'm away working (The joys of a mechy fitter as a dad) apparently it's made a massive difference just replacing the green panel filter that was in it with a new KnN one so now i really can't decide. I love the whistle and always have done, I've had one on every other car I've ever messed about with but I"m just not sure I want to take the chance with a Scoob! -
Welcome, Nice car, do tell why??

More food for thought! Thanks guys, I'll post it back in here with what I decide to do. -

Appreciate both sides of the fence there guys. If i was to put one on would you recommend the de-cat pipe and a map then?? Also what sort of ponies would i be expecting if i did?? -
I never made it to any of the yards for them but I've seen the boats in the flesh, they're massive! Yeah there are a lot of tidy ones kicking about in there. Especially the Capri rocking the car park with its original Recaro's in. My S2000 used to sit nice next to that lol. Not as nice as my Scooby would do though!

New Fuel filter pipes, spark plugs and a new air filter
-
Thanks for that, that will be getting done as soon as the new plates turn up! That's put my mind at ease as to having to explain why I've got no front plate on the car

Welcome. I ran mine up to the sun visor and didn't have a problem with it. Which subsea 7 vessel is it? I used to work at the research base under the Erskine bridge!
