Probably, ash nick tom gambit and myself all use Sheffield subaru services. Easy to find just round the corner from medowhall

Boost gauge/gauge pod help
Have a look at the depo website, may be slightly cheaper and they ship directly, I have the slightly different led type, boost oil temp it's easy to read. I think savage may have the 4 in one gauge give him a shout

hawkeye WRX- are these standard ?
You'll need to do the pads if you do the discs as the surface of the old pads will be contoured to the old discs, so your breaking at best will be compromised due to the faces of pad and disc not sitting flush

Alarm Upgrade
Basically any alarm installer will rip out all the old stuff and put brand new in. So best off either speaking to a local clifford accredited installer to see what suits your needs or have a look at the clifford website, as all their products are listed Maybe a clifford g5 or 5g can't remember exactly

The Forester Turbo
Did you have any jot with the brake conversion mate ? I've been told if you get the newage 2pots with the 'subaru stickers' as opposed to the embossed subaru on the caliper they'll clear standard rims, (couldn't remember what wheels you have on at the moment)

WRX with problems.
Yeah smells like hot oil, only after you've stopped or turned off. Easy way to check is pop bonnet and look inbetween the airbox and rocker cover, you'll see the up pipe at the bottom, my heatsheild was covered in oil and grime. If it's the other side won't be as noticable

Engine modding help
He'll tell you it's cos his misses was in the car, I'd speak to Andy forrest, email is easier than phone, Just tell him you've just got the car and although you have a dyno print your unsure of what fuel it was mapped on and if it has al & launch, if not how much would you be looking at to have them and a boost controller added
-
Engine modding help
Ash drives like a granny anyway [emoji12] In your paperwork dose it tell you who did the remap ? If so I'd contact them as the Al & launch can be added easily enough, the boost controller will need mapping so the original tuner may just charge you a 'tweaking' fee instead of the full cost of an entire remap. If you looking at controllers I'd get an electronic one but then again the mapper may have his own recommendations

WRX with problems.
I'd pay someone to do the gaskets for around 100 quid and an hour and a bits work it's well worth it. To say they are a pain is an understatment

New to Subaru forester
Hello welcome, [emoji16] Best place for spare parts I find is www.importcarparts.co.uk If you can't find what your looking for give them a ring as they will probably have it or be able to get what your after. As for insurance did you go through one of the 'major' companies. Quite a lot of us use specalist brokers which brings the cost down significantly

Buttertubs Pass Run
Nick, anymore info ? I'm not on fb so want to know which way it's going to be run.

Clifford alarm fob
Don't suppose the previous owner left any paperwork for it ? What serial numbers are on the back of the fob, If any ? I've just replaced my fob to an after market alarm, found that as long as the fcc id from the old fob matches the new fob it should work. How old do you suspect the alarm to be ?
