You'll need to ring the dvla at a guess to see if it's been registered, will probibally need some bits doing rear fog wiring in etc to make legal & speedo conversion, www.importcarparts.co.uk is your best place for parts as they'll be able to get info off the jap vin, Where abouts are you located ? Can't see on tt app

Esl board Www.enduringsolutions.co.uk or an apexi ecu & commander

Hello &welcome ! The vin no is on the top right, can't make out the pic too well looks like sf5028608 ? Don't bother trying to call anyone to order parts with it as most people will look at you oddly, Engine in an ej20g and can't see the transmission code, forester production started in 97, what reg is it ? If you could pop a pic of the exterior and engine they we'll be able to give you a few more details

Www.importcarparts.co.uk your best bet, if you can't find them there give them a bell usually have most stuff in stock Has the bearing chewed up the hub ? I

Massive purchase today of some vac hose to replace some shabby bits

Could be many things, Ball joint, arb droplinks, arb bush, suspension topmount, Start with the ball joint, Jack car up give the offending wheel a wiggle see if there's any play, also get a pry bar between the arm and see if there's any up down movement, Then the rest would be visual inspection of the bushes, if you end up changing them and it still persists i'd hazard a guess at the top mount but as they are the most expensive of the list, start by eliminating everything else before changing that

Yeah they hut me with the vat chestnut when I bought my catch can booo ! Noticed I don't have the blanket install pics any more apart from one sat on the turbo, the cars back on the lift Saturday so I'll grab an underside pic then

I installed mine with the turbo in place just used a set of ramps and some needle nose pliers, was a bit fiddly as the blanket is pretty stiff when new. An extra pair of hands would have been helpful but doable on your own, I'll dig out a pic or two

Are you after an oem part or aftermarket ?

Have a look behind the disc atvthe dust shield, could have some horrible crap stuck there and only rubs when turning ?

Hello &welcome ☺ were all friendly here so feel free to get involved

Just the random way it reads ! I usually do from cold and dip at least twice that way I just average it out over both sides, Least it's not as hard as trying to dip the 'box

Looks like my propshaft/gearbox seal is weeping, [emoji25]

That's what you tell people !

Hrllo & welcome feel free to get involved !

It's weird sometimes it works sometimes it come back with an error, I find if I type the address in it usually goes in ok

Cheers bud, Another thing to add to the list of stuff [emoji3]

Hi mate thanks for the links, I've seen the Russian site before,need to use chrome on my phone, If your struggling to get part no's from UK dealers, this is a good source of parts too Www.opposedforces.com

@savagebulldogs is your man to ask in the in's & in outs of reshelling, I guess a lot of it is time

Normal speed it's fine only when north of 80 ish I heard that coolers do more harm then good in daily drivers?

So 5k interim is coming up, used millers cfs10-40 for the past 3 years and happy with it, recently noticed my oil temps hitting the mid to high 90's when really pushing on for extended periods of motorway driving, spoken to opie a while back, said there's not much point in a 10-50 any other views on this as most mapped/modded cars that I know go to 10-50? Also thinking of possibly going down to a 5w as she lives outside now and when I don't use the sump heater takes a little longer to get up to temp opinions please

Maybe worth hunting around various breakers, for one to match, I'll keep an eye out for you as I'm trawling them myself for bits at the mo

216/60/16 for me I think, pouring down so don't fancy checking just yet, Have a shop around as I managed to get my good year down from 140 each to 104 that was through asda believe it or not

Hello & welcome, looks a nice clean example, any plans for her ?

Rally armour do soem to fit but aren't cheap, have a look on forester.org for various options, I believe the generic ones that scooby world et all sell fit with some minor mods, or you could do the 'ikea' mod !
