Well they came free with the car, and their taking up the spare room floor as we live in a maisonette and don't really have the space.if no one wants them, I might have to take them to the tip

Sorry dudes, I should o posted this in the general section.done it off the phone and must of slip with the finger, you know what I mean

On Tuesday miggs,sorry i didnt let you know.i used the cam gear you sent as we had to tap and pri the old one off which took a good hour and over night soaking. Car was done just in time so I could use it for band rehearsal

So thanks to miggs and my brother in law,between us we've got the car back on the road.i done the pulley wheel with new woodruff and bolt and cam gear ( from miggs) cambelt,all of the pulleys/ tensioner. Oil seal on pump, thermostat, oil cross over pipe jncluding hoses and oil filter change.iand I just washed all the greasy hand prints off her. Thanks again miggs

That's cool,I just wanted to check.ive got millers fully synthetic.so I'll change it for the winter

Just want to know what the normal engine oil used in the 2.0 litre turbo is.reason I ask is that I just picked up my cambelt kit, and I thought I'd get the oil/ filter while I was there and the dude gave me 10w 60 ?

Hello mate and welcome

I've got two rear shocks for a legacy that will defo fit the mk2,their standard and In Fair condition. They came spare with my car,so I don't need them.their free of charge, and I can post some pictures if your interested.

Bonjour

Yeah totally,my cars old so After a full service I'm going to clean up the engine bay new hoses maybe a tiny bit of colour but nothing goldie looking chain ! I've got green exhaust wrap which looks pretty cool, had to loose the tin ware as it was rusty

My legacy is met blue with met grey wheels and people seem to comment on them as they look a little different. I'm going to put a carbon fibre grille in and under the bonnet with black/ grey samco hoses so it's not in your face but looks good

I do say scooby but mostly it's subaru,is coz I'm posh?

Don't arouse me twice in one day ! I can't take it in the heat .........

Bonjour becky22. your be fine on here, theirs loads of knowledgable types about the forums.oh it helps if your a little weird ( or is that just me ?) Gambit / I'll start looking round my way for a place to meet,theirs a good few scoobys where I live.dont think their on here though:(we need some sort of calling card so we can leave it under wiper blades.

Oh now I'm aroused..........

I'm guessing cans,it does look really neat from the pictures but mopping it won't be fun :( oi gambit is it cool to put a none subaru picture on this site or will I get shunned to the corner a bum invaded ?

Yeah it is starting to look brighter, I'm still interested in what paint has been used though ( and don't so white)

Well done mate, it's a pretty cool achievement and deserves respect

the drip is quite quick once the oil is warm and although theres enough oil in the engine,I'm In area so it has to be done. plus I've just ordered a Kevler 2 timing belt @ £155 so I'm not taking that f@@ker back off once its fitted.

As always I'm totally up for helping in anyway i can In The Hampshire area.i would like to see more people that want help, and are interested in their cars in a genuine way than meets in car parks just looking.just for the record I am awsome at breaking engines( yes i have a heavy fooooot ) so to be around people that want to get involved in fixing/ building engines is cool. Coz for me, that's what it's all about

Cheers for that mate

Just doing the timing belt on the car and I've got an oil leak. ( which I knew about) it looks like its coming from the oil pump but not 100% yet. Is this a common fault and if so is it normally the gasket that needs re sealing/ replalcing or something else?

Miggs make a very good point. I have read some many threads of people re using belts to same money.some do get away with it I guess,but it's the main thing that keeps it all together and isn't worth the risk EVER
