2.5 XT EJ255 TO DO LIST
Finding a good garage is the best way, mines a 70 mile round trip to but well worth it he's more knowledgeable and cheaper than a main dealer, forgot to say an exedy 'blue box' clutch kit will be fine for your needs unless you plan on putting any more than 300bhp through it any time soon Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Secondary air intake pump question
Common problem with this, the air pump is only used for start up to control emissions, so the 2nd place you took it to were right, you'll have to blank off the valves and get a map tweak Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Tips and tricks to make car 'shine'
Most of the products theses days recommend a cutting compound then Polish and finally a wax to seal it all, Weather you can actually see the visible difference between the products is debatable, and depends on the methods used to apply etc. For a couple of years I used the meguiars 3 stage 'red' bottles after that I tried their 'ultimate' range, I can't honestly see the difference, the ultimate cut and polishes are slightly easier to apply and buff off but in my opinion that's about it, maybe I should go for a da polisher but for 20 year old paint work is it worth it ?

Piggys (slow) build
Thought about putting a different baffle or windage tray in there while it's all apart ? Will it be going on track at all ? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

200ml isn't excessive, I'd just keep an eye on it I wouldn't bother with checking the oil feed to turbo, you'd know if you had one as the turbo would probably decide it didn't want to work any more. Not sure about the garages around you may be worth putting a post up in the general section, autotecnica are supposed to be good but prob a bit of a trip for you Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

2.5 XT EJ255 TO DO LIST
Hello & welvome, ò Looks nice ! Wind noise is pretty much a given due to the pillar less doors, you can do all kind of diy fixes but they never truly work, Assuming you have 16" wheels then the stock brakes is all you'll be able to use, bigger calipers don't fit under the wheels, so you could go better pads and braided lines, or if your still not happy then a set of 17" rims and you can get this package http://www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk/impreza-ver-4-onwards-type-r/114-brand-new-4-pot-calipers-with-kevlar-pads-and-grooved-discs.html A new clutch flywheel skim spigot bearing will cost around 350ish from a good independant, May be worth just doing a fluid change 1st as this often gets overlooked at service time, Ticking noise from injectors is a 'subaru' thing 90% of cars do it and not much you can do to stop it, the whine could be anything gearbox/drivetrain/turbo related, if it's not smoking or buying oil then again not a great deal to worry about in my opinion I would have replaced the tensioners when doing the belt as these are usually the things that let go long before the belt does, Looked after and with regular oi it should easily get to 200k 🖒 Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Why do you always tempt me into giving you my money Clive? [emoji33] I should just set up a standing order. I'd be tempted myself but as my heads are letting me down I don't see the point Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

It may pass an m.o.t it may not, (speaking from experience) Not sure about the length on the mid section on an impreza it may be a little shorter, not sure to be honest Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
