What have you done to your Subaru today ?
If I had 10k i'd be seriously tempted. One drive through your local village in that & people would be getting out the way ! Least they'd hear you coming Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk

Exhaust & Air filter combo ..
I got mine made up, I think it's to do with the extra couple of inches on the boot floor and the impreza ones are angled slightly up ? May be worth looking into a wagon system might not be as much modification to do Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk

Is rear camber fixed
Did they check to see if the camber bolts were ok and aligned properly ? Just about everything is adjustable and you can buy different camber bolts from eibach or whitline to add a bit more of you want Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk

Dashcams, show us your view!
Shouldn't be to hard, find an ign live under dash tap into that, install an in line fuse as you'll have chopped the cig lighter adaptor off I guess, then ground the negative wire to a suitable point Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk

Forester 2.5XT Rear suspension self levelling?
Hello, not sure if they came as standard or you could tick an options list, some of them have an external unit stuck to the shock leg, about the size of a red bull can, best of googling it brings up loads of images. You can buy a complete replacement kit from pedders inc tops springs & struts or you can buy separate springs and shocks Mr b is your man on here, have a look in the forester sub section as a member has just changed his for normal shocks/springs, there's a thread with various options and part no's Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk

Exhaust & Air filter combo ..
Yeah should be ok, I'll take a pic of mine as I was told that it routes round the diff a little differently but if you know people with the welding tools then your laughing, Not sure about the filter, are you going to delete the snorkel and resonator & put it in the wing ? If so maybe a bit of silicone hose and unbolt the airbox from the maf if possible, depends on the setup they change from year to year Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk

2007 Subaru Impreza 2.5 hatchback Engine knocking
Hello sounds like the crank, All depends on what you want to do/plans with the car & how much you initially paid weather it would be worth it or break it for spares, 2nd hand engine would be cheapest option but may go pop. Rebuild is best way then you'll be able to spec it how you want and will know what's what, but you won't see much change from 3-4k Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk

Exhaust & Air filter combo ..
Hello & welcome, classic systems will fit but you'll need to relocate the hangers and possibly add a couple of inches to the back box, you could always got forester specific system made up, an induction filter isn't really needed unless you want big power, the standard airbox is efficent to about 300bhp Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk

Depends on what your read, like everyhthing else I suppose if you go into it prepared and with plenty of time and light you'll be fine it appears to be the o/s that's a pig as some people have had to disconnect the rack from the steering wheel I reckon about an hour with brew time inc Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk

Still not super noisy, only other thing to check is a failing wheel bearing, they get noisy as hell when on the way out, Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk

Waterless cleaners
Mine scrubs up pretty well you just Nedd to look at it from about 5 feet away so then you can't see all the hail stone dents ! Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk

Road Noise
Subaru's in general noisy, sound deadening adds weight as Chris says tyres make a big difference too, I've just put on some good years with very low rolling resistance so quiet but you do loose a little in handling, You could always try putting some in the doors, do you still have the under tray and under bonnet mat ? dynamat I think it's called is supposed to be good, Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk
