  1. Turbo heatsheild ? Uppipe on way out ? Have you access to a really long screwdriver stick it on the manifold and have a listen to where you think it is
  2. Offered to sell her as the misses cant get insured on it and we need something for her to practice in for test. Only a hollow gesture as I knew she'd say no and I have no intention anyway :-D More brownie points for me though !
  3. 2nd that ! I can now only buy stuff for mine that she can't see or is hidden away :-D
  4. Forester, hg issues on the later models as tlag says, early cars not so much but it's a noisy engine, an sf model may be getting a bit long in the tooth for your needs, self leveling suspension will have had it by now, youll be able to tell by looking at the back end if it looks like a dog sitting down then walk away, plenty of aftermarket eeplacement shock options though at a third of the price of subaru ones. The ride comfort is lovely and smooth for the type of car, the newer model also sits about 2" higher than the sf. David's had a foz and now on his legacy so is better at the pros and cons of the sg model forester vs legacy, Sg model will be a better option and as long as it's been looked after should last forever, but as the others have said a leagcy would be a more suited choice,
  5. And we wont have to worried about being puled by the law in the morning stinking of booze :-D
  6. Put me down for camping too, none of this hotel lark ! ;-) Although that sleeping bag thing looks good I can't justify the price if I only use it once a year,
  7. Do they allow light through the sides or is it more of a straight pattern ? The reflectors In the lamp aren''t great so need something that projects to be he side too
  8. Whoop well done good choice, as sav says once the wallet opens it rarely closes theres always something else on the list that you 'need' :-D
  9. Why not mate do it ! I'd get locking ones though, How big a hole do you have to cut to fit them.?
  10. Link please, how many leds and are they capless bulbs ?
  11. For bonnet ? Which ones are you looking I'm led to believe theres two types ? I've never really seen the need as I'm not that into weight saving, however I have a mate who has a pair on his font bumper of mk2 golf it's so low he can't get it ino the mechanics garage without removing the front end. Can't emember how he's rigged it but it's a good system
  12. Been looking for somewhere that has them in stock all day haha, I have a single interior led I tried to see what the effect as like but was a bit one directional. Looks like I'll be shopping from the bay

    Potentially ruinous running costs though ! Seen a few r34 front end conversions &rb26 powered ones floating round the webs, cant stand autos mainily as I hate the old creeping you get with them, Suppose I'd have to get with the times eventually manuals will be a thing of the past

    Oi ! I bought mine for practical reasons, also the legnum v4 galant variant . To be fair who wouldn't want a straight six single or twin turbo wagon ?
  15. Only my opinion, I reckon he's asking a little too much there especially with no tax
  16. You could get it removed, but it's coming into m.o.t as a fail if it's not there, although this is only going to be visual for the time being,
  17. Do you have the ability to read the ecu ? If no May be worth getting a cheap reader for tthe future from the bay and see what codes it throws,
  18. Yep, cooling fins in laymans terms ! Not sure if the normal push fit type have them
  19. Can go even further and loosen the engine mounts jack up slightly and evwn more access
  20. My side lights are **** poor so deffo gonna get some new ones, no worry about melting the lamp as I'm oldschool with glass units. Did yours have large heatsinks on them ? The festoon bulbs I have in the interior have large ones on the back
  21. Once you have a poke around the bay, it's not really that bad, remove the air box and washer bottle & rad and you can get at 90% of it
  22. I'm bald as a coot so I had my clippers wired into the glove box :-D
