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

What he said

Cheers mate ;)

Need to get a timing belt kit ASAP.i found a recipt with my car history but there was no mention of a full kit and the price did not reflect this, so I'm replacing the lot while I'm in there. I don't want a cheap kit, it's not that I'm made of money ( the wife is) its that I'd rather put the best I can on there I can. Found gates and cosworth so far, I heard though that some gates belt aren't all that i'e their racing belts. What's everyone using ?

You mean a sequential timer

Yeah,stuck in that damn VOD again ;~)

Ok so I've just read this whole thread and I'm upto speed, so any further comments won't sound so dumb. But that is the way I role......

That's cool about the painting,what you using?

That's cool mate,funnily nor am I, I'd rather have a protien shake. Two pints and I'm well on my way! Speak to you tomorrow mate

If it comes out looking like what's in the picture with the decals it'll look awsome. I like that mean scooby look. Are you prepping the body to keep the cost down ?

Miggs,if you wouldn't mind putting the other wheels in as we'll, I'd really appreciate it.and we're sort out p&p through pm ing each other ( that's not a youthanism gambit ! ) once again miggs a massive MASSIVE thank you.if I'm ever your way or you mine, there be a beer with your name on it. Hopefully we're meet up a club meet at some point !

It's cool,my original ones fine but obviously it's be torqued so I can't re use it.im pretty sure torque setting for this bolt is 110 (also read 125) but will double check with the dude I'm meeting tomorrow who's in the knowing. Just out of curiosity, what are you doing with other pulley wheels as I noticed after removing the aux cover mine look like they've seen better days.

I honestly can't thank you enough.im not worried about cost, what Evers quickest.i'll inbox you my address and were sort out bank details and I'll do an instant transfer to you.ive found a subaru garage near me and managed to get a new crank bolt with a new woodruff key as well.

Here the side on view of mine

It's the one on the crank miggs

So who knows the best place to get hold of parts? Need a pulley wheel including new bolt woodruff and belts. I was two miles away but it took three hours to get home

Yeah I think your right,I think I'll get a new key ordered along with new belts and have a ponder on the pulley
