many thanks iain.

i did have a look round for any nipples not connected but will give manifold a further inspection just now.

I need a spot of help. ive discovered a loose hose round the back of my classics phase 2 manifold and dont have a clue where its supposed to go. the offending item is shown below. whats the name of sensor and where is the hose supposed to be connected to? thanks.

i know, i know, i know

as above flaking paint on manifold means nothing. my advise, have a look at one in for sale section here. it has the bits done that you would need to get done already, ie mapping for uk fuel etc. bargain for whats been spent.

powder coating is far more durable than paint/laquer. now that i have finally got a proper forged set will be getting them powder coated when the time comes.

good topic, will be interesting to see long term results.

i think some newage imports only came with 2 pots. something to do with them being minimally built as they were to be stripped later for rallying.

op hasnt given any info so its impossible to know.

a picture even without wheels off will tell instantly.

another ?

edit:

oops should have waited for pics to load first time, saw it advertised a few days ago

ive rolled a classic with quite a few revolutions down a hill and walked away without even a scratch, they are built solidly despite the low weight. am sure some of the modern test are more for pedestrians saftey if you hit them.

theres quite a few others on here that have had similar experience and hence why they went straight out and bought another classic.

standard filter for me. i think harvey did a comparison test.

i shall have to get a simtek with maf delete, purely for engine safety.

i used wheelcarrier earlier last week, think they are just a broker, as it was actually dhl that did delivery. 27 pound for 4 wheels and tyres. you might well get cheaper elsewhere but i never bothered looking around cause at least they never included ab postcodes as highland deliveries, for which there are extra costs.

ive got one. need somebody else with one...

i happened to have one after getting hub of import to replace mine with kackered wheel bearing, another route you could explore.

very nice graham, i must admit they are growing on me.

i though it may well be something new new as you have the classic as a toy.

my 98 uk on 15" canadian snow tyres made of walnut shells is excellent, on par with leggacy which is fitted with 14s m+s all year round. i think ive broken the dccd on new car with the 18s which were truely awfull in the snow.

if shoe was on other foot i cant see them giving refund for any unused milage allowance.

i wouldnt ignore or tell them to **** off. nae worth buggering up any credit score for the small amount it is, if you have any plans to move house etc.

get it sniff tested that will tell you one way or the other.

if its relatively minor phone the boy that wanted it and see if hes still needing it.

the dash temp gauge is crap and stays fairly linear over a large temp range. surprised the cels on though. our legacy split a metal pipe under manifold the other week and still got it home from inverurie, no cel. did change the oil as well just incase it got heated up a bit.

lol at wuz

ps. why are you changing from steel whishbones to alloy? dont belive weight saving is an issue.

got one spare when i got a second hand hub off import if you become stuck. not sure if dealers will stock with alloy arms only comming on imports. depends if anyone else has one spare though............

lol, didnt even know my name was down till i got a text . sorry but wont be down this year, exceptionaly busy just now.

Reserve List:

1.

the problem is uk classics are getting old and if they havent been looked after bodywork wise, since new, then they are starting to show it now. this is what costs the money to put right.

the likes of yer shocks, bearings etc are just wear and tear items that need replaced after a certain usage which is fair enough. fit the parts your self and they cost pennies to replace.

im going to be selling my uk too, mechanically its fine, but ive already replaced one rear arch (cost a fair bit) and given what the cars book value is now it wont be economical to do more bodywork if any other issues arise further down the line. once any panels have been repaired they wont last as long as clean looked after originals IMHO.

sad to hear your selling the classic cal. loved your epic write ups about the ring etc. i am sure you will still be about.

ps. would a nice new hatch no make for a safe reliable family car with the ability to have fun when needed.

aye, just a snowfoam lance but good fun.

my first subaru

old wagon

current car, been 3 years now, time for a change i think

and just cause ive got a new gadget

you need to get a proper seal kit min. suprised at such a young car needing them done but then again ive seen your driving.

oh aye there should be two copper washers one either side of banjo fitting too.

i would have replaced the seals to you if you wanted but its a fair distance awa.

edit:

your needing these:

rear brembo seals
