  1. Tools needed, trolley jack or axel stands, Turkey baster, and some dexron 3 atf fluid Lift the front end up but make sure you can apply lock to the wheels, pull out as much oil as you can refill with new stuff, turn the wheels till no bubbles come out lower and top up the level if needed
  2. They will fit, do you have the normal 4 pots on ? Could always send yours away to godspeed in Wales, they normally have re furb ones on the shelf, have stainless pistons so shouldn't seize again. Send them yours and you get a nice shiny set back ready to go, They are usually pretty quick in getting them out, they may even do a surcharge service, (not sure as I just sent mine away)
  3. Hi mate thanks for the reply, All sorted now about 2 hours of valve balancing did the job
  4. Tidying up some bits in time for (show season) [emoji23] wiper arms are getting repainted Fab shop is well underway with adapting my zs undertray too
  5. Glad your enjoying the purchase [emoji3] Pressure washing, just avoid obvious things like pointing Lance directly into it, (sounds daft I know but I watched a car wash chap do it to mine) he ended up bending the intercooler fins [emoji35] I usually wash the bonnet from the wind Screen down, and aim the lance towards the front end, that way I can give it a quick blow over and the water isn't directly going towards the scoop, if your concerned you could always put a small towel over the intercooler and shut bonnet that should catch any stray water Luggage covers are like rocking horse !Removed!, they surface on the bay occasionally but are daft money, you could try breakers, grade a subaru are usually pretty good, may be worth finding out if they are the same size as the impreza hatch, As for roof cleaners ut's a pain as I tried once and got soaked, resorted to taking it to an auto valeting place where they had a wet vac, if you replay want a go at it yourself, autoglym do a foam shampoo spray which is a bit easier to work with than the normal cleaning agents
  6. Asda £249 with fifa, 500gb If you don't like fifa sure you could get it shifted for 25 at least
  7. Just thing of it this way, if you always stick to the indicated speed you should never get a ticket [emoji23]
  8. 3m tape nick, that's what comes with them, and mine are taped and clipped in. You going to martins sat ? I'm back down as the prop seal is weeping,
  9. Has it got stock wheels & tyres on it or are they bigger ? Different size wheels can effect the speedo, All speedometer 's read slightly over by about 5mph
  10. 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
  11. Esl board Www.enduringsolutions.co.uk or an apexi ecu & commander
  12. 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
  13. 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
  14. Massive purchase today of some vac hose to replace some shabby bits
  15. 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
  16. 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
  17. 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
  18. Are you after an oem part or aftermarket ?
  19. Have a look behind the disc atvthe dust shield, could have some horrible crap stuck there and only rubs when turning ?
  20. Hello &welcome ☺ were all friendly here so feel free to get involved
  21. 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
  22. Looks like my propshaft/gearbox seal is weeping, [emoji25]
