Got an 02 plate forester turbo s a 53 plate 990 cc corsa and a 60 plate peugeot partner Neil

Cheers mate Neil

If your selling them mate I need the metal rings aswell! Who's bigg red Lewis? Neil

Not yet Boab! Got a week off work so just being too lazy for my own good got 4 cars at the mo to keep going so my poor impreza is last on the list!! Neil

I'm after a set of 4 pot seals I ordered a set on eBay but they failed to appear got cash back thru PayPal so I'm stuck at the mo with no seals to get the car back on the road is there anywhere I can get them ordered and delivered next day? Do you think my local Subaru dealers can get then in? Cheers Neil

Cheers guys its currently sitting at 145,000 miles roughly still going waiting on tyres for it Neil

Plans at the moment stripped out caged up wide arched flat wrapped!! Neil

Well I've had my impreza for 7 years now but today it turns 20!! Hopefully have it for another few years yet its under a wee transformation at the mo due to having a van now and the wife's forester to play with I can get stuck in about it! Again happy birthday scooby! Neil

Andy you'll know if its leaking cause 1. It will stink 2.loads of smoke from the fluid dripping onto the manifold and burning off! And finally 3. Your drive will be covered in the stuff! Had a nightmare with this recently all finally fixed thinks its maybe not been topped up enough ! Neil

Hi I'm looking to see if anybody knows of a garage or unit for rent looking close to livingston but can travel no problem for storage and working on the car and bike ideally for 6 months to a year minimum Cheers Neil

Cheers johnny I'm going to do all the jobs that don't cost any money first skint at the mo trying to get a holiday booked in the next few weeks so keeping cash for that mrs moaning as usual! Lots of bits to come off and get cleaned up arches to free of rust etc etc Neil

Thanks rich Interior wise I'm going to strip as much as I can but as you say try and have a slight comfort level carpets will go but think ill devise a mat system for non track days door cards I'm going to replace them with plastic or fibre glass going to build a cage too plan to try and have the seats as low as possible too fixed position no runners Going to go round the car tonight and get pics of everything for a before and after and get it weighed this weekend Ill do a thread when I get all the stuff sorted! Neil

This is my plan for next year with my son being 17 soon he'll have to muck in with jobs if he wants a shot!! Neil

Cheers Davie I'm hoping I get a few good deals like that myself although i got s cracking desl on a set of sesrs recently!! your build defo helps inspire but the minefield of info on brakes on the net doesn't help me choose! Sticking with the 4 pots for now so discs pads braided hoses and new fluid first then coilovers tyres and go from there Going to weight the car first then weigh everything Ive stripped out! Neil

Yeah that's the route Im going major diet for me and the car then upgrade what i can when I can afford it! Neil

Cheers Lewis good info think tyre wise it'll be toyo proxes or Yokohama a something's not really track tyres but fast road route hopefully read a bit about sump baffles and swirl pots think that come next year Got to sort some exhaust issues to sort out up pipe cracked and failing gaskets on the rest of the system Neil

Well after watching on Saturday I've decided to turn my wrx into a part time track car and weekend toy got lots of bits to fit and sort on the car but looking at pointers where to start and end up following a few threads on here already with good info etc but where should I start? Strip it? Getting new brakes and tyres fitted soon so after that should it be anti roll bars bushes seats and harnesses etc any sort of order I should follow? Budget wise thought about 1k should get things rolling eh? Cheers Neil

I could only get one from Subaru themselves no other motor factor could get it but I got ours in 2 days wasn't cheap either though hope the garage are paying for it! Neil

Nope sorry Gordon cold food only I've been told! Neil

The BBQ is a no no cause of the fire risk but food we bring should be ok! Neil

Looked for one but all I found were just as bad and rusty as mine! Now it'll have all new discs pads abs ring handbrake shoes and fitting kit for 100 quid more should hopefully last a while!! Neil

All stuff ordered apart from the ring itself have to get that from Subaru itself big thanks to don once again helped me out Neil

I thought it would be a case of the big nut removed pull off the hub carrier thing then refit with new bits? Neil

Yeah bought one for the other side couple years ago £105! Neil

Well has a phone call from the mrs tonight on her way home from work car is making a horrible noise she's had to stop on ferry road told her to phone the aa and ill fire through on my bike and meet up with her till they get there! 15 mins and I arrive along with the aa guy top bloke he was rear wheel off caliper off to find the abs ring in easily 25 bits along with the parking brake shoe springs all mushed!! So what do I need shoes are fine but ill need an abs ring and the kit to fit the shoes again all else seems fine Where's the best place to get these? Cheers in advance Neil
