Couple of little mods...............for now
Which ignition live feed did you tap into ? Think if you do it off the lights it will dim like the rest of the dash clocks

Technically fraud, so getting bummed over by the law on as many different things as they can at one isn't my cup of tea

help me buy my first subaru
Not sure brog, the sti's generally have stronger internals. Maybe it's down to people ragging them to death and bottom end failure ?

Mate I've removed your number for safety, this forum can be viewed by anyone, best of sending her a private message. Last thing we'd want is people tracking you down via your number

Unless you crash then your fooked. Mine came up as a n/a gl. Wasn't gonna chance it cost me 200 extra but the piece of mind and having a car insured properly

The 2.5l engine should be fine if it's had the recall ecu flash or a remap think it was to do with them running to lean on high boost/rmp and melting pistons could be wrong. As for De stickering fairly easy just take your time maybe use a heat source. Then wash cut polish wax after, good as new

Question about turbos
I'd look at other pumps than the walbro's they seem to be getting a bit of bad feed black recently due to workmanship & construction going downhill

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Knobber not only is he putting his life at risk but ever other road user and pedestrian. He could get a ditch finder for 15 quid save himself the hassle of 3 points sixty quid and his conscience. If he's chewing through the tyre like that I'd be concerned about alignment or inflation issues. Take it he doesn't care about cars ?

I like the pod thinking of changing mine, depends though. Yeah 0.75 bar sounds ok got to factor in for a little bit of gauge error and that. There's a sticky in the impreza section that tells you what model should have what boost

your knowledge please on wheel fitment
I've seen 10" on a classic with arch extensions mind you. May get away with 8+ if you rolled them, not sure what the handling will be like though

What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Mounts and bar went on last night and sorted had a bit of a battle as the previous owner had a tow bar fitted, i'd removed the bar and hitch but never the hangers, which fouled the space where the new mounts sit, so removed one side ok, new mount sits so close to the fuel filler ! N/s was a pain as the exhaust hanger was bent back to fit the bar, and new back box was mounted to the bar hanger, ended up shaving a bit off the corner of the new mount base, finally got all in then spent over an hour tyring to align the bar and droplinks, Not sure if the bush bracket bolt has gone in cross threaded as it looks a bit wonky must have tried to get it flush for 15-20 mins , nut it's up tight and i've done a few miles all seems ok and the improvment is noticable during normal driving ,

Air filter advice. Prepping for remap.
2nd the rcm such a unit well packaged and a doddle to fit. Get a tank gasket just to be on the safe side

2.0 l stronger engine, early 2.5's suffered from some issues, probably uses a tiny bit less fuel. 2.5 more torque ,

Cos worth for me as I didn't go maf less. So wanted oil free, you'll have so much more noise from turbo when decatting anyway [emoji16]
-
What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Ooooh it's tight new bracket is so close to fuel filler neck [emoji15] To make matters worse the other side will need some modification where the previous owners towbar mounts are, removed the righthand side, thought I'll do the same on the left, No joy as the exhaust hangers now slot into the towbar bracket, so I either remove back box hanger, cut to mount down then put all together or I shave a couple mm off the end of new mount. Think I'll go with plan b
