Forester 2005 stereo + speaker upgrade
Somone told me pioneer make the subaru sat nav units have you had the headunit out ? May say something on the back or an expansion to add bluetooth. I do you have the tweeters in the top of the door ? I replaced the coax with 3 ways left me lacking in bass though. Complimented the whole thing with a small active underseat sub. It's not too big and rounds off the system nicely.

learn to map
I'm in same position mate, I've just bought an esl cable so I can at least look & log what's going on. I'd buy it mate, i'm. Sure you'll be able to save the file that's already in there so at least if you do !Removed! up you can just re flash the original base map.

May be worth looking at changing the boot lifters from one with a sti wing as they are stronger

Forester 2005 stereo + speaker upgrade
May be worth starting with the speakers, some us owners have said it's made a vast improvment, and they'd stuck with the stock head unit afterwards, is yours the one with the sat nav on top of the dash or lower down in the centre console ? I only went to halfords as just having my first child I was on a budget for a change, managed to get a pair of fronts that didn't require spacing and don't foul the window mechanism, the rears shouldn't be a problem as the sit lower down

HKS Silent Hi-Power Exhaust
At lest it's got one resonator in the centre so shouldn't be silly loud. Have you had a look on YouTube to see if there are any sound clips of it ?

Is It Hard to put a turbo engine in a na car??
Yes although from an engineering point of view not really but from time cost and parts it isn't worth it. Although I've just seen your post topic and the actual content, so are you buying an n/a car with a view to putting the wrx lump in later or are you dropping the n/a lump into the wrx ?

New diffs and box I think. Doable but pricey good for changing the bias of the car able to get the !Removed! out if you so choose

Lifting a Forester
does it only do it under load ? If so the springs may be old, mine came with spring assistors in to help, if you have the self leveling units in the rear they could be on the way out, Pedders do a lifting kit gives about 2" i think, new shocks and springs all round, may be worth looking at www.forester.org The guys in the states have loads of info on it, you can also change the subframe spacer blocks to give more room but it's a big job

Subarus don't like reversing ! Mine makes a right racket almost like it's not going in properly, must have been doing this for the best part of 20 years so i'm nkt concerned, just keep my reverse manoeuvres to minimuma and low speed

It's the stupid plastic turbo to cooler pipe tahts the pain. I've found if you get the throttle body collar on and the turbo hose aligned, put a large screwdriver or breaker bar on the 90° bend and gently lever it on whilst putting it into final position

The code of Subaru...........
Love you too gambit [emoji8] Theres loads of fozies near me but either driven by old boys or mums so don't bother waving, theres some young lad in a n/a one who keeps following me and having a look but never stops to say hi. Some impreza owners say hi as they know whats what, but others don't see really,suppose only having one small subaru badge on the ba k doesn't help. I normally get 'whats a forester' ?
