Difference between 2.5 & 2.0
Or just get someone to build you a 2.1 or 2.3 short block stick your heads on then sell the 2.5 to recuperate some over the outlay

STi or Whiteline Rear ARB mounts for a 21mm STi arb, or something else?
How hard do you drive ? I know people who have mounted with standard foz mountings they let go eventually, Might take a while, I couldn't be bothered changing it when they did go, you could weld up the gap in them with some reinforcing plates ?, I bit the bullet and bought the foz kit from WL it's nigh on impossible to bend them,the o/s ones a bit of a pig to fit though

Two oil questions.
As long as it meets or exceeds all the api Accea Or what ever regulations/quality tests they are it should be fine, they'll run on both bit if service book says synthetic i'd use only synthetic unlike the older engines which states semi synth

Difference between 2.5 & 2.0
Even more money ! But if you went straight for the top hp goal it would cost less in the long run than doing it in stages

Wanted shock (suspension)
Boo [emoji26] didn't realise mine were that bad until I removed the spring spacers then it all went saggy, The difference between mine and the wagon is 160kg in total so not sure what yours weighs compared to the equivalent year impreza
-
Wanted shock (suspension)
It's bat of a minefield some people say ok others recomend a spacer block inbetween the topmount and body, personally I found that the !Removed! dropped by an inch or two again as my forester weighs around 60kg more at the rear than the same year impreza wagon
-
Wanted shock (suspension)
They would fit but you may have sagging issues at the rear due to different spring rates, what kind of budget do you have ? Theres a couple of threads on here about members doing the swap recently, either kyb's with custom springs or a pedders replacment set would be best option

Sheffield Subaru Services meet on 13th July
Hi mate, have a search as there's a thread somewhere regarding all the different brands, boost oil temp & pressure are a good place to start, one of my senders died last month so did a bit of re jigging now looks like this

Fault code reader.
Oh they are a bit pricey, depends if you think you'd need it ? Have you managed to clear the fault and it comes back ? Maybe worth a trip up to scooby clinic up chesterfield way to see if they can chase the airbag ? Fault. Would be a bit cheaper than 200 quid

Lambda sensor
Can you take a pic ? Easiest thing to do would be take the new one to a fabricators get them to weld you a new bung on take the old one out and weld that up unless it's for an afr gauge

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
If the tints were the only thing on the car then I'd have asked him how he was measuring the darkness, if there were other mods that weren't declared or 'Un roadworthy ' issues that may be found then best to be polite and kiss !Removed! a little, I know a young lad who's just passed his test,his family are very well off and bought him a brand new a3. He got pulled by the law asking him all kinds of stuff like how can you afford this, is it yours etc. He was polite and what not, old bill still not happy, wrote him a ticket for not having any screen wash in the bottle !

New exhaust
Do they still have the ps1 ? Haha it will probably get a bit louder as it beds in, I chose them over other places as the service too

Usb stereo
Ah maybe I know my plug in won't read above 4gig was worth a shot, same with my phone used to be able to upload phone book into head unit but it refuses to read now
-
Usb stereo
What size usb storage device are you trying to plug in ? Some older stereo's can't read anything above 4gig. Thought mine was broken until I tried smaller capacity sticks which work fine

Droplinks and Powerflex ARB bushes 2.5XT MY04
Have a look at pic no7 on the eBay ad you'll need to imagine the big bend being the other way up and over the exhaust, i'd clean all that mud off the fuel filler they rust out eventually [emoji26]
