    For the amount of money I'd personally go for a STi, but that's because I like them more. Go for what you want mate, not what everyone else says. Everyone's tastes are different and everyone's budgets are different.

    So randomly relay starts making the on noise and light now works...doesn't defrost though...
  3. Seminole81
    Good idea
  4. Seminole81
    Start with the little things first, injectors etc. You should be able to push a decent amount out of the stock turbo? And if you're planning on rebuilding, then I'd just run it on the stock internals until it blows personally 😉😂

    It's gone now. I'd buy from a dealer personally, at least you get some sort of little warranty.

    my mate in the States ran a FP Green, and a full turbo back exhaust and had t mapped on a hawkeye STI for years with no problems mind and I'm pretty sure he was pushing 400 horsies. They don't need too much to make decent numbers from what I've read. Why I was thinking bigger injectors 😂 If you're going to spend the dough, get the bigger ones like you say haha
  7. Seminole81
    Hmm, are you ever going to want more than 350? Because you need to build around the turbo sizing. FP Green could get you to 400 pretty easily. But there's loads of turbo choices. Think someone did a thread in the general Subaru area with a list? pistons & rods, Weisco pistons, Carrillo Pistons and rods or Eagle rods? ARP if they make them? Maybe check into head studs etc as well. Injectors at least 800cc probably 1000 I'd say, RC Engineering does good ones. Bearings, Clevite (spelling?) do the ones for NASCAR so they're good. Or there's good ol' ACL as well.

    That's what I thought, just wanted to make sure. 👍🏻

    Good idea. 2006 STI, 2.5L, no problems...yet!

    Shushhhhh you'll jinx mine 😕😬 welcome though, I just bought a hawk and love it 😊 not too paranoid yet.

    Gah, was just about to buy this when my step son said I wasn't allowed to and when I asked why he said because I'm not...obviously means I'm getting it for Christmas haha

    Welcome, love the white 😍

    Sorry to ask again, but can I just ask for a write up on how you did this? I want to change mine as I'm not sold on the green with the red speedo clocks...and I've got white DEFIs...thinking of going red as well for these. Also, where did you get the black controls from?
  14. Seminole81
    Had it checked over, basically same as what JM did for me. All looks good. Need to find a place to stick it on a dyno though. Latest saga is the rear defrost stopped working. No light or relay click. Checked the fuse, which looked a bit scorched so I replaced it. Didn't fix it. Guessing it's the relay that faulty now. JM is going to fix it for me which is good. Has anyone done the LEDs on the climate controls? Debating on what to do as I've got the red speedo, green climate, and white DEFIs...should I make climate red? Leave it as is? Which LEDs did you buy if you've done it?
  15. Seminole81
    Sorry to thread hijack, but I've got a cat back at the moment, if you get turbo back/decat will you fail MOTs?
  16. Seminole81
    Haha no wasn't you. Where are you normally about? I need some Scoobie friends 😂 Don't know loads and have a lot to do (budget is limited so baby steps at the moment 😬)
  17. Seminole81
    Fuse looked a bit burnt, so I replaced it anyways. Didn't fix the problem.
  18. Seminole81
    Check to see if you blew a fuse?
  19. Seminole81
    Driving along, notice the rear defrost not working, pushed the button, no light. No click from the relay either. Any suggestions anyone? Going to check the fuses tonight, but if they're ok then maybe the relay? Anyone know which relay it is?
  20. Seminole81
    Always at least Super Unleaded, V Power or Tesco's 99 if you can 😊
  21. Seminole81
    Saw a black new age the other day at The Galleries in Washington, backfired when I saw it. also just now saw a blue STI I believe (had badges at least) near the roadworks that lead to South Shields with ref that ended in HAM haha
  22. Seminole81
    Really liked this thread. Sorry for bringing it back from the dead haha. I like what you did with the center console and changing the LEDs to match it all up. I'm kind of in the same boat now as what you were. DEFI gauges are in white, red speedo, green climate control...kinda want to go all red or, red and white as I can't change the DEFI's (I think?)
  23. Seminole81
    Never heard of them! But they're literally around the corner from where I live 😂 Will give them a ring 😊
  24. Seminole81
    Performance North East I believe? Not sure if they have a dyno though?
  25. Seminole81
    Not yet, there's a guy in Hartlepool though apparently that specializes in Subaru that I'm going to check out with I think.
