Was gonna do mine myself but seeing as it was at martins I got him to do it, much easier with proper lift for the engine, Pitch stop and gearbox mount are easy I did those in about an hour all in. There's a couple of posts somewhere Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Fairly easy if you have a lift, undo 1 mount, pitch stop too of its gonna help, then jack up the block slightly will be able to undo the retaining nut on the mount slide old one out then pop new one in, and repeat Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Spent 4.99 on a flexi grabber thing and a flexi magnetic thing, Retrieved 1x crows foot, 1x8mm socket, some allen head bolts and a few other assorted washers that had manged to jump into the engine bay over time, best fiver I've spent this year Also checked the contents of my cc after properly routing it to collect stuff instead of the half arsed attempt in the summer. This is just off the crank breather 😲 Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Why not ! The oem ones go soft and squidgy after a while, the group n ones are stiffer and a compromise between the polyurethane ones that shake your teeth out [emoji23] Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Hello & welcome looks like you picked up a well looked after example Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

His prices seem to have gone up by 1500 quid since the summer ! One thing I will say is he quoted 170 for a cambelt change, which is too cheap in my opinion, weather he changes the idlers & tensioners too would be worth enquiring about Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Hello & welcome, There's not a great deal you can do without chucking a load of money at a n/a scoob to gain more power, I'd go down the weight reduction and handling upgrades 1st, maybe a bigger brake set up to enable you to carry more speed with confidence. Not entirely sure but does yours have a rear sway/arb attached? If not a decent bar and droplinks will make the world of difference Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk- 2 replies

Hello & welcome the early ones my09 weren't the best, problems occurred with dpf's, glow plug seizures, and the odd snapped crank here and there. The newer ones seem to have revised this though Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

Got it washed fed it, The other day re routed the cc and tidied up some bits in the day, Also spied my 19mm crows foot sitting on top of the block that I dropped in there last year, at least I know it's safe 😂 no I just need to enlist the help of person with tiny hands to get it.

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

http://www.gearhack.com/myink/ViewPage.php?file=docs/Subaru%20Transmission%20Chart Have you had a look at this Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

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

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 ?

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

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
