If the cats are still in place I wouldn't think it would be an issue,it would only be if you changed the cats out and put a filter on, so it would breath and expell air out faster

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Don't worry mate, one was fine but the n/s upper looked like a twiglet too and the bolts have seen better days for the sake of 17 quid from subaru I thought I'd change them. That's why I bought the rear droplinks too on Tuesday I was impressed with the extra feel and feedback from the new fronts I thought I'd do the rears too. Front deffo feels more secure and planted, with a bit less flex. The rears although I only drove for ten mins make so much difference, now to find a new 20mm arb [emoji16]

Wasn't having any of it, sprayed some on last night and when I got to work, still all in an hour wasn't too bad I suppose. Ordered some repacement bolts for the front ones when I changed them last week they were pretty haggared

Rear Drop links fitted one side in 15mins n/s battle that took at least half hour damn you seized bolts, not even half a can of plus gas would help. I reckon with it being so close to the exhaust it's welded itself together over time, brought out a 2ft breaker bar,a few choice swear words and job done

Yeah I did that on all the points that looked rubbish,they must have shaken themselves loose again. My iron's crap though so I may buy a new one before attacking it again. Bought the silver whiteline ones w23480 50 quid from scooby parts. Was impressed by the uprated fronts thought I'd do the rears too. On the hunt for a thicker bar now

custom back box
I had a full system made for mine by cobra. As it's slightly different to the impreza it wasn't off the peg, dropped it at 9 in the morning by half 12 they had made a twin resonated middle and backbox from scratch along with fitting the downpipe [emoji16]

I've got some bilt & hamber stuff I used on the mazda before, took all rust off and only had to wash off in morning, some zinc primer lying round somewhere too, just not really the weather to be starting. The rubber trim needs cleaning out properly too so while it's wet no point [emoji25]

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Found 2 tiny spots of rust in the n/s rear arch under the rubber protector trim [emoji35] not enough to warrant cutting it out yet.... So covered it in a bit of underseal so hopefully the waxoil in it will drive the moisture out until the weather is good enough to set about getting it and treating & sealing properly. Really !Removed! me off that my garage space is no more Also ordered some whiteline rear droplinks

a few pics of my project so far
I like the look in pic below, understated but you know what it is and only the fmic gives away that fact that it's running more than stock.

Hello have you checked the aircon ? Maybe a slight leak or a pipe getting condensation on it when it goes through a defrost cycle and dripping down ?

Gauges and pod
No mate not at all, I don't know the 1st thing about electrics so I wasn't confident about hacking into the loom. I got a piggyback live from the fuse box found a spare switch taped up under the dash for my ignition live figured it hadn't been used for 17 years so I didn't need it now and the earth and other one I took my time. My instructions were all in Japanese which was fun. Tell your misses to muck in she'll have smaller hands to get into the tight spaces [emoji16] have you decided to put the brass bung under the alternator or on top of not cylinder? Not sure about daisy chaining as I can't do it on mine, I guess you just link the live and negative

I'd just left the house so not fullly up to temp, had more important things to do like get beer and supplies for tonight, it's only a 40 limit on that stretch and quite built up area so i'm more than happy for him to use his car as a !Removed! extension on his own
