Hello and welcome mate. Nice choice of car, enjoy! The new model is growing on me.

Nice one John, glad everything is ok now. Enjoying the 'breaking in' period? Now take it easy on these winter roads!

The speakers are really bad but IMO I would change the HU as well. At the moment I`m running Infinity speakers and an Alpine X001 iDA for my iPod. You have 3 options for the single din pocket from Subaru - the forester pocket (you will have to drill holes in the brackets for this to fit), a 4 x CD holder and the standard pocket (which I think is best - after buying all 3 at some point!). Don`t buy the pocket from Halfrauds John, as it looks bad and you will get the Subaru one for around the same price. If you don`t want to drill holes you will have to but speaker adaptors as the standard speakers are mounted at 3 points (most speakers mount with 4). Also you will no doubt have to get an ISO adaptor to wire your HU up. Hope some of this helps mate.

No worries mate.

Have a great time mate.

Of course they stand out compared to ordinary cars. All I was saying was that I don`t like white wheels, you ask for opinions and I gave you mine. This is only my personal opinion so please don`t take offence as its your car and your money to do what you want with.

I know a few of you guys have went for the white wheels so don`t take this the wrong way. I personally don`t get this 'white wheel' fad, to me it looks cheap and just stands out far too much and I can`t get the idea of Dulux Emulsion out my head! Now bronze on the other hand looks very nice.

Defo NOT White!!!!!!!!!!! Gold and WR Blue go perfect, I know the standard wheels might not be the best design but out the 2 pics they look the best.

Hope everything is sorted now mate, bit of a nightmare for your family. Car looked mint by the way and was surely some kind of scam.

Great pictures as usual guys. What happened to the Silver EVO with all the smoke, turbo problem maybe?

SNAP!

Very nice indeed, one of the models on my short list for my next car, just oozes quality. See you went for the steering wheel upgrade too.

Looking good mate, are they Speedline GT1s?

It was parked in the Service Park on Friday next to a teams' marquee when I saw it. Very nice indeed too.

Hello and welcome mate, nice car you`ve got there.

Been to Rally GB twice and my opinion is don`t bother mate. Rally Ireland was so much better organised and the marshals were alot more helpful, plus remember Rally GB cost around £90!!!!!! for a weekend pass - the stages I was at in Ireland cost £0. You do the maths.

Some of my efforts. Polish Subaru Team Rare S204 With Scottish Plate????

05 STI with PPP (300 bhp), 241miles to a tankful working out around 21mpg and roughly costing 22p per mile. And loving every mile of it!

If you mean Mullaghmore, I was staying at The Beach Hotel right at the stage finish. Did you try McHughes Bar in Sligo? We found that to be the best one.

Well guys got back late Monday night and back to work this morning. Still recovering from the early starts (5am most mornings!) and late nights in the pub. My God they Irish boys like their Guinness and Bulmers. Will post some pics when I`ve got time.

I think the local lads will ruffle a few feathers, but its a pity wee Eugene Donnelly has swapped his Impreza WRC for the Skoda. With well over 100 entries this will be some rally!

Well guys off early bells tomorrow to Ireland for the rally. Going with Rally Travel on their Escorted Tour and staying in Sligo. Alot of early starts but no driving so feet up! Anyone else going from SS? I`ll try and take as much pics as I can, well depending on the amount of Guinness I`ve had the night before! See ya in a week. :o

Nice looking car mate. The colour looks great, its just the pics that don`t do it justice. IMO don`t over mod it as looks good as it is.

V-Power 106.9 in Kirkintilloch today. BP Ultimate 112.9!!!!!!!!!!

I don`t think the Prodrive backbox is the problem. If you just had the PPP and no other exhaust changes you would have no probs. When I changed my resonated centre section to a straight through unresonated pipe there was defo a change in the tone and noise of the exhaust but nowhere near exceeding the limits of the law. I would like to think you will be fine.
