  1. And I bought a solar trickle charger and the cable that plugs into the OBD port and a new battery and came to start the bugeye after it stood for a couple weeks and it fired up no problem ?so let's hope that solves the issue once started I let it idle with headlights on and foglights just to kick the alternator into life as its Bank Holiday next weekend I'll take the old girl for a run over my folks
  2. Quick update on the exhaust project I ordered the afterburner typhoon and fitted it with the reducer and a brand new gasket and it fits perfectly and sounds amazing a lovely burble on tickover and I can't wait to go for a run out in the bugeye and see what it's like next on the project list is a prodrive front bumper and grille so thanks again MR DON ?
  3. Hi Dennis I fitted a pioneer AVIC-F960BT it's got a touch screen and Bluetooth plus built-in navigation it's a cracking bit of kit replaced the standard stereo in my 2008 wrx hatchback and it's loads better hope this helps and you need to post a picture of your new pride and joy ?
  4. Thanks MR DON not sure about it having the bung just I had a ninja on my classic and it was perfect but I noticed that scoobyworld told me they have replaced the ninja with the afterburner typhoon ?which comes with a removable bung just wondering if it sounds the same haven't managed to find any YouTube videos on the typhoon yet to see what it sounds like
  5. Right so I now know how to fit the reducer thanks MR DON my next question is I've found a newage ninja backbox on ebay off a 2004 newage impreza now I'm wondering if its compatible with the scoobworld centre section on my bugeye now I'm sure haywood and Scott produced the ninja for scoobyworld so am I right in assuming it will fit any information much appreciated ?
  6. Lol told you I was being thick ?? thanks Don ill get it sorted this weekend ??
  7. Thanks for the info mr Don but could I not use the reducer that came with the backbox just put the 3inch end into the centre section and then bolt the 2.5inch backbox the the flange as per pic or am I being a bit thick ?
  8. Thanks Mr Don but I need it the other way round 3inch centre section to a 2.5inch backbox I'm guessing that's why I'm struggling to find one ?
  9. I'm after a 3inch to 2.5inch exhaust flange adaptor can't seem to find one anywhere has anyone got any ideas where I can get one many thanks in advance ?
  10. That's brilliant cheers MR DON ?
  11. That's brilliant info thanks Mark don't suppose you know the make of the solar charger do you ?
  12. hi all just a quick question i only use my bugeye wrx at weekends and came to start it last Saturday and battery was dead so i purchased a new battery and got home Friday night and tried to start it again and battery was dead only just turning the engine over i have read a few threads on the tinterweb saying that imprezas are fitted with smart alternators so they only charge if something is turned on sidelights, blower fan, etc so is this true or not i cant trickle charge the battery as its parked outside my girlfriends house and no where to run the extension lead for a trickle charger and anyone know if the solar trickle chargers work or not, any help much appreciated as its doing my head in lol
  13. yes there the ones Mr don thanks for the info much appreciated ill get them ordered ????
  14. hi all hope you are all well in these strange times just a quick question i fitted carbon mirrors to my bugeye they came of a SPEC C im led to believe so no problem fitting them even all the connectors were the same and im still able to operate them electricaly any way after removing the standard mirrors i noticed several of the screws were missing and my question is if anyone has any knocking about or know where i can them as they appear to be as rare as hens teeth i need a few im happy to pay for them and cover any postage costs so feel free to point me in the general direction of suppliers or if you have any give me a shout also fitted my afterburner raptor vortex back box and centre section which sounds mint ???stay safe out there all and thanks in advance for any info

  17. hi bud welcome to the madhouse if you need any information on getting yr scooby sorted message THE DON hes a fountain of subaru knowledge ??
  18. hi all hope you are all ok and managing in these strange times just a quick bit of information required do hawkeye mirrors fit a bugeye the general consensus is they do but just wanted to clarify it so if any one knows any information would be appreciated ive been offered a carbon backed set off a hawkeye SPEC D and before I spend my hard earned beer tokens on them i need to know they fit many thanks in advance and stay safe out there
  19. thanks for the info much appreciated i also changed the hazard light switch to a red one looks so much better me thinks now im looking at sourcing a set of wind deflectors i found them on ICP website so gonna order a pair tomorrow ?
  20. i had noticed you had one mr don but I assumed they only fitted the newer impreza not the bugeye as i say ive never seen one before so snapped it up ?
  21. so was rooting about at a auto jumble the other day when i stumbled upon this little gem it came in a original subaru box and is in mint condition now im thinking is it a dealer option part as ive never seen one before but if fits my bugeye rear view mirror perfectly its not real carbon but "carbon effect" but looks bloody brilliant when fitted any information much appreciated cheers
  22. well we best get something sorted then chaps ???
  23. so after my bugeye decided to go all smokey and run like a bag of poo ???its all sorted now and waiting to be picked up on Saturday so just thought I'd let you all know who did all the turbo work and more bits and bobs that the previous owner bodged hes a genuine guy and his prices are bob on so if you needed anything doing to your scoobys and you live in the Midlands give him a ring hes Coventry based but im sure he would collect and drop off your pride and joy so just a quick shout out as im well pleased with the service ????
