  1. Good man it would be a pain in the !Removed! to re attach it all then have 5o change the gasket in a month due to it blowing, Looks like ones been moved or someone's put a thread in for a wideband afr
  2. If you were closer i'd have offered a hand mate as it's easier with two people,
  3. The ones round the top and the studs are fairly easy, it's the one underneath between the turbo and pipe that's a f****r to get at a flexible 14mm socket is the easiest option, do you have a new downpipe gasket aswell ? I notice the lambda sensor hole is bunged up behind the turbo, have you relocated it ?
  4. How often do you go off road ? Mine is pretty much road based as I go off road maybe a week a year in total, by which I mean driving round farmers fields and the occasional snow, it copes with all of this no problems on the standard suspension
  5. You need to undo the 4 or 5 bolts on the downpipe which is a challenge in it's self. If you've already done the up pipe bolts it should just come away
  6. Whoop cheers mate, been after one for the front screen I'll have a gander in a bit
  7. Cap states dot3 which has been replaced with dot4, i'm guessing that's what's in there now, will I have any problems just replacing with dot 4 or even dot 5.1 ? Or do I need to flush out with anything 1st, last thing I want to do is rot the insides of my system
  8. Are these stickers external ones or the type you lick and stick inside?
  9. Ringing round insurers, renewal time, been on hold with keith michaels for over half hour gonna give up
  10. Haha sorry love I've just bought another car !
  11. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201412109561536/sort/atcustom/postcode/ls116ad/radius/1501/make/SUBARU/price-from/1000/price-to/5500/page/1/usedcars
  12. Weird jdm business ! I'd assume it's going to be in the region of a manual xt/ auto wrx The Tiptonic box makes it quicker than the normal auto,
  13. Make sure it's silicate, phosphate &aminate free, 90% of coolants are these days but etheleyne glycol stuff contains silicates which eat the water pump impellor , vest bet is getting a longlife O.A.T coolant, most motor factors sell it and Just do a 50/50 mix.
  14. Haha ok well of you've not hunted this info the cs has a Tiptonic gearbox slightly lowered suspension and leather plus body kit over the xt so that reads as not as quick as the sti or as harsh ride and maybe more luxurious interior, Did you cone across the one that appears to be on Gumtree, the bay and trader, white or silver with privacy glass on a brick forecourt ? Good thing about imports is you don't pay stupid tax brackets so may be worth having a peruse some of the later 05 models that will be available for import
  15. They should do however the backbox will need the hangers repositioning and i've been told it needs lengthening by a couple of inches as the way it sits round the diff is different
  16. I'd reckon it's around the same as the xt over here so maybe 230bhp ish ? I'll have a look there's a couple on the bay & trader at the moment
  17. You're right [emoji51] It's still the 1st gen foz which is pretty much a 'classic ' shape impreza. So brakes and other things are straight swaps, struts and bits like that are almost the same, spring rates are different due to a little extra weight carried by the foz, and top mounts differ, the fronts are the same as classic impreza but the rears are the same as new age cars, Engine is pretty much the same too, just check what version you have, mines a 97 foz which is a ver 3/4 impreza engine roughly speaking
  18. She made me buy her the engagement & wedding rings last year,ut's the other bits she's getting a impetatent on, mainly the actuall wedding bit haha.. I'd said I'll get a next gen console before this Christmas new bf and hopefully forza will be out then
  19. Xbox 20 will be out by the time we eventually get round to that!
  20. Ah well you got an extra 2 cylinders and more wafting ability instead [emoji51]
  21. Yeah yeah whatever ! Not my fault David wanted more power and switched
