  1. Maybe next year we'll try and get a Yorkshire lancs bi monthly meet going gaulson, Saying that I've been meaning to get to gambits but evenings are a little too far for that one
  2. Right I'm in the !Removed! end of Wales lost me phone turns out it was inbetween mine & old man's car all night in torrential rain. So it's been sat in I bowl of silica gell all day so If only part of this comes through that's why, Gambit yhpm
  3. forester vote fore me here, how many miles do you cover a year ? if not a great deal and used for short trips i'd go petrol as there seem to be a few people with dpf issues, (same of any diesel) as for parts yes they are expensive if you only use main dealer, theres been a couple of times when i've had to put the phone down due to laughing so hard whilst talking to them, but the internet is a brilliant place to get replacement bits and there are loads of companies that specialize in jap/subaru parts as your in sheffield, may be worth giving Martin a ring down at sheffield subaru sdervices to give you and idea of service costings and what not, great independent with a wealth of knowledge and good bloke to boot
  4. New gaskets are easier to get from subaru US than here cheaper and quicker, have a search on the bay I got one for under 20 quid shipped arrived within 10 day's much better than 25 quid with 4-6 weeks wait [emoji35] Dunno if you've done one before but the nuts don't need much to be tight and people have snapped the posts that the nuts screw down onto.
  5. Found it It's on a classic and I think they are 60mm gauges but I guess it can be done on yours ?
  6. It can be done, there's a build thread on here where a chap has done it, I just can't find the pic at the mo. I'll keep looking 90%of people fit them where the clock is as all the wiring is in place and they are slightly easier to see at a glance,
  7. Could be a split on the tank gasket seal, under the o/s passenger seat back there's an inspection hatch also allows access to the fuel pump, good chance that it may have been split or nipped up when the hatch was put on or pump changed, is there any history of this being done ?
  8. Hello & welcome, most important is to warm it up properly before giving it the beans, regular service intervals should be adhered to apart from that the are fairly robust, most importantly enjoy [emoji38] We're all friendly here and there's a wealth of knowledge so just have a good poke around and I'm sure you'll pick up loads of good info/tips for your model, when you have a min post up some pics
  9. Looks like a good days work Sam [emoji106] Went to fill up today after yesterday's journey, 3 hours later and a 70 mile round trip [emoji33] finally got a full ish tank
  10. Hello, they should be can you post up a pic of what's on there now, as far as I'm aware they are the same as an impreza of the same year
  11. Driven to the !Removed! end of the world, 252 miles took nearly 7 hours inc a stop for dinner. Have to apologise to the bugeye owner with the spoiler risers pulling a trailer that I overtook, if you'd had the light/number plate board attached to the trailer instead of lying flat in the back i'd have known what direction you intended to take
  12. I can they won't fit yours as the spring rates are different at a guess http://www.pedders.co.uk/subaru-forester-sf-lowering-suspension-kit_p23267271.htm
  13. Do it sav! Haha sat is normal rwyb and camping for Sunday, your weekend ticket entitles you to turn up at any point sat.
  14. I've got a set of foz specific ones that have been on just over a year, good quality good customer service and a 2 year warranty over all I wanted a slight drop and comfort, so went for them instead of coil overs
  15. Packing the car for a trip to wales Associated woman/toddler items still more to get packed Man packing Beginning to think the misses may see that the foz isn't as big as make out to be [emoji58]
  16. Little subdued for you that mate, been to see the bank manager? i'm away for a week so I'll send my address over when I get back,

  18. It is isn't it ? Sat is open to all marque's Sunday jap only?
  19. You must know mine ? Saw some gimp like creature running up the street late last night with just the !Removed! cheeks glinting in the moonlight, Told ash we were to and that was the last I heard from him
