What have you done to your Subaru today ?
Useful things tow bars ! I imagine the bar would have spread the load evenly so there may not be any structural damage, I wrote off an a class merc when some idiot student decided to try and park her car on the end of mine :-D van wasn't even damaged

Head Gasket gone on 2.0 Subaru Legacy 1997 twin turbo
Have a look at www.importcarparts.co.uk for bolt and gasket prices, theres many to choose from depending so that will give you an idea, I'd say a day to strip down and rebuild all being well also depends if theyremove the motor, (ideal world where your mechanic can just work on yours) if I'm wrong I'm sure somome will correct me, Head skimming cost me £ 25.00 last time I had one done, not sure about this but you may not be able to have the head skimmed again. And you'll have to taKe into account theres a pair of heads on a subaru so the other side may need to be done as not to effect the compression, again I may be wrong. I know of a forester being done at the mo, he's not expecting much change from £900

Fan belt slipping and pully jamming
Boo, saying that you'd need a sit down after hearing the price of a major service for a main dealer, may be worth having a look online for someone who knows their onions, my local one's an 80mile round trip but worth it for the expertise, I wss in same position hardly any histiory etc so had cambelt and all pulleys & tensioners done along with a major service

Suspension
Is it an upgrade in thickness to the standard bar ? The sf model has a tiny bar but will have to buy the reinforced supports too so I'll be looking to upgrade in the future when funds allow, will be interesting to hear your views once its been driven for a while

Fair enough, I'd book in for a major service for peace of mind, do you have a specialist in your area ?

hows peoples Japanese these days ?
Ad you can see the instructions are fairly self explanatory 2 ground 1 to engine block, but what do you think the other two are ment to be ? Before anyone says snake oil and what not I thought id give it a go as the older cars have pants grounding. Looking around the web theres loads of grounding info, I'm just a bit unsure where to run the final one from. So far I have 2 block & two ground which seems to be what everyone else has said, but the 5th some say alternator, which I'm a bit unsure of others say lower half of block. Suggestions please

JapShow Finale Sunday 12th October 2014
Haha well if everyone didn't keep deserting me in west yorks I could have roped in some more people ! That lad with the classic joined up a month or so ago hasn't been back and I've not seen his car around either. Ash may have managed to get some more people from the meet last night. It'a very frustrating aren't we only one car short now ? Too easy to like stuff on fb just for the kudos of being associated with it. I think it's time for gambit to suit up and we'll start going round the houses
