Hello & welcome feel free to get stuck in and have a poke around, The only option really is to get a remap which will cost a fair bit and won't make massive increases. Maybe a free flowing panel filter and get rid of one of the cats with a performance exhaust

The trader is your friend ! Gumtree the bay all useful sources even if it's just to have a look and see what lemons are around

Hello welcome we have a fair few members from Kent and there's couple of local meets that take place every month, may be worth looking at the regional section

Or find some old chap who's had his since day one with a fsh. They are around just have to hunt high and low

Nah don't bother waste fuel, Turbo timers not necessary on modern water/oil cooled turbos either just don't drive like a mad man before you turn off

2nd the autogaurd app dave it's brilliant for the price, I paid for the pro version so it's not on screen all the time. Do you have any issues with using other gps based apps ?

I know plus savage had one up for sale not long ago. I'm Not wanting to change and to be honest I don't have the funds to change at the mo, trying to sort out a mortgage amongst other things, She wants to look at something new on hp which probably wouldn't work for the size of car we need, and I doubt the monthly payments on a new sti would be within my price range at the mo.

Japshow mate [emoji1]

Depends what you want from the motor, api are well recomended with a fairly quick turn around of a month

Gutted mate, clutch as you say saves doing it later on, apart from that maybe change the ancillary hoses that aren't attached to the block for silicone ones, clean the bay it's self ? Who's doing the rebuild for you ?

Hello & welcome, You'll have to go as a normal paying punter as the club stands had all been booked up so we couldn't get on as a club. Best off googling to see how much general admission is as we had discounted rates if we got a stand

Some I'm seeing are around the same mileage to mine and have rebuilds already ? Hmm I think not if it's gone and been rebuilt I dread to think what else may be about to die. What's the deal with the 2.5's you always hear horror stories but I don't know of anyone personally that's killed theirs. May have a walk round the garage later see what the deal is with the spec d

That price isn't even for a forged lump ! [emoji33] if she drove and we had a 2nd car i'd probably end up starting a little project and strip & rebuild myself but ts not an option. Yeah I'm having a forray into the trader now.

It was Monday haha

Well she's had new shocks & springs, new exhaust, esl& remap and two new wheels, bearings, plus tyres and various other whitleine little bits here and there. Since I've been owner. Realistically I wouldn't he more that 1500 back on a good day. The spec d 'm looking at is bog standard so it's going to require a bit of cash spending on her exhaust & map, the belts have been done recently which is a bonus,

Maybe it's my paranoia but my engine isn't sounding the best at the mo and fueled by other people's hmming and arrrghing it's getting to me at the point where the misses is ready to slap me, as she can tell it's playing on my mind. Man maths done but it's not really stacking up with her [emoji26] the car owes me roughly 3k. The shell is rust free but suffering from a general scuffs and scrapes after 18 years been quoted 2.3k for a rebuild if I pull the engine myself closer to 3k if I take the car, nothing fancy arp studs, acl mains, revised pistons from later model to cure the slap, sti gaskets etc. So do I try and convince her indoors to let me go ahead and rebuild, Run it till the engines gives up, then break it, or cut my losses and look for something else ? There's a 55 spec d wrx. full service history, (kt green subaru) one owner car near me, that Is around 5k Help !

Tripod ? Haha

Good pics there mate !

It's a pain specially when you unlock the car put some stuff in boot then have to press the fob again to start everything up.

You running vpower or standard super market petrol ?

My local dealer told me just to use a non silicate nitrate & phosphate free coolant, preferably get one that is o.a.t organic from your local motor factors

Don't think so it's an eu requirement for an alarm to immobilise after 30 seconds if it doesn't detect any ignition activity

Have you checked the plugs recently? The rears can be a pain to change so sometimes get left

You still looking at importing or have you gone in a different direction ?
