MOT needed on highly modified usdm 08 sti
Always interested in builds start up another thread in the build section :D The car will need at least one cat in to pass the m.o.t unless you find someone willing to look the other way they do a visual check 1st. As your testing an import there shouldn't be any model specific co2 values just a generic target to pass, like many others here a doner car is often required for this part too ;) Basically if you find somone who knows what the deal is and as long as the car is roadworthy and has all bulbs working etc and isn't going to kill anyone you shouldn't have any problems

Bolt in or welded ? Knew someone who had the full mashings with cross braces on the doors, he got fed up with having to climb over the sodding thing every time

If I'd seen him coming I'd have slowed at least he'd have passed a little more safely. Trouble with drivers like that when they crash they won't end up killing themselves but ruining someone elses lives

Here's my contribution to knobbish driving this week, Bearing in mind it's on a 20 zone with two schools at the bottom of the street let alone the zebra crossing and cross roads.camera has issues focusing at night which is a shame. And new pitch stop is causing a bit more shake

Not a stupid question mate, we're all friendly and down to earth here, at the end of the day were all learning all the time so feel free to ask away, thats the best thing about this forum no one proclaims to be better than anyone else because they have had a subaru for x amount longer than other people. Anyway sls is the self leveling suspension unit on the rear of the forester, if you have a look underneath atvthe lower rear struts there should be something the size of a red bull can atached to it,

If I looks like a dog dragging it's bum along the floor when stationary it's seen better days. Sls units cost an arm and a leg most people swap them out for normal shocks and springs

Ah well good for at least another 100k [emoji51] rear shocks can be a bit troublesome if they are the sls units apart from that I've found them to be bulletproof

Literally just put a little pressure on the manifold eased it back a mm or two and the bolt slotted in. I guess cos the rest of the mounts are worn therewas excess play there

Having to make some more up as out of stock, I'm after a kit and a I/c to recirc valve hose too. The guys at sfs have been on holiday so a bit of a delay. They reckon all being well the week after next. I wanted to do it all at once but got bored waiting. Same with turbo blanket, sais In stock on website so I ordered one only to have an emal come back saying they are due in next week. Still it has to go under the tree any way. Did you have any issues with the pitch stop when you installed it ? Mines a couple mm shorter than the stock One so we had to ease the motor back before the lower bolt would slot home. No biggie though
