  1. It is I did 1 in under an hour and didn't take the bumper off... If your doing 2 might be easier to remove it.
  2. The side skirt is easy, it's the bottom bolt that's a twat to remove. I sheared mine off even after tons of wd40 to ease it. Fortunately the side skirt holds it all in place! The plastic clips cost pennies on EBay. I didn't break any doing my wing though. Just be careful prying the centre out to unlock them and then they usually just pull out with some long nosed pliers
  3. If you have the spare key (I may have mis read your post) and you have the keypad in the car you can code it yourself...
  4. I've been looking for dates for the events we were waiting for and I can't find anything for the Buckie Classic car Show, if anyone has any information or contact details for the regular organisers let me know. It's usually before the Elgin Show and Shine which is in a months time so I'm getting the feeling they're having a year off! The Grantown Motormania show always the first Sunday in September so it should be on the 7th this year. Registration will be open in May for those wanting to go, ill keep everyone updated, anyone who registered last year and got the newsletter updates should still receive them I do believe. So this years first get together could be for some hill climbing action at Fintray.....
  5. I got one from a guy over on ScabbyNet who's the alarm specialist..... Decent price about £30 delivered I think.
  6. Welcome along, are you having the car shipped over or are you lookin at at buying one here. Not many legacy's look as food as yours over here. Dont worry about pics, we like them here you'd get more abuse for not posting any than posting 100.
  7. I'll wait and see what happens and If Subaru decide to stick a decent donk into it in the future. Between me and my other half we've got 3 kids and 2 teenagers, oh and a German shepherd so it's probably not practical for me right now. I was almost tempted by one on lease but we'll see
  8. There's a few tuners have upped the power Crawford Performance in the states have some good upgrades and i'm sure a tuner in Japan has bolted on a turbo (might have been a full conversion). At the end of the day the car is screaming out for more power - someone will fill the void until the manufacturers do. I was actually thinking about getting a BRZ on lease a few wees ago..... glad i didn't now, though it might be slightly more appealing once the price reduction is in force.
  9. http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=29887 So subaru have cut the price of the BRZ so theres a gap of £5,000 between it and the new 'Impreza'. How long will it be before Toyota follow suit, could be good for used car prices as well. Has to be said i think i've only ever seen 1 BRZ outside of a showroom/forecourt, seen loads of toyota's though but i suppose thats down to the deal they signed. Personally i think i'll wait until they bolt in turbo engine and give it a power hike!
  10. don't need the roof patched to go to inverness Al..
  11. It's that time of year again. Fling time..... So those of us heading over from Aberdeenshire and Moray on Saturday morning I'm taking it the usual convoy is order. We'll aim to be in the Tesco car park in Elgin for 8 - 8:15. I'll be on the road before 7 meeting up with Ian near Inverurie and heading over. Add your names and see you bright and early on Saturday morning! 1. Davey L WRX 2. IanamBroon (in the almost new classic wagon!)
  12. Sweet I was just about to start a thread for us from Aberdeenshire / Moray heading over on Saturday. We usually meet up in Elgin at Tesco and all head along together.
  13. Looking damn good. Clay bars work wonders. Mine needs a really good detail at the moment. I've been in filling the paint chips, once i'm out of this sling it'll be sanded back and polished out before the clay bar and orbital sander come out to play. Hopefully in time for show season!
  14. Haven't seen that around yet.... Suppose it's a sensible car for them though, no issues in the winter!
  15. Aye not good. I'll see how it goes but I can't see us making it this time
  16. :(could be another room free. I broke my elbow last night and won't be able to drive, not even sure I could sit and be bounced around if Lynne drove. Not impressed, all I did was slip and fall playing football. As soon as I know whats going on i'll let the hotel and everyone know!
  17. Looks like Piston heads like the new car, though they would like it more with the Jap spec 2.0l twin scroll fitted. With the exchange rates moving in the right direction again, Importers could start to bring a few in. We can dream http://www.pistonheads.com/roadtests/doc.asp?c=47&i=29776
  18. yeah, I got a decent deal on the stuff I got from Ebay. It's 3M stuff so it's decent quality. I did wrap the Perrin Stiffi's but didn't like the look so removed it. I've just washed mine and found a few more areas that need touching up before show season. Hopefully the weather is nice on Friday and I might get a start on it.
  19. I've got a load in the garage Al. 8m x 1m if I remember correctly Matt Finnish carbon effect. For the best fit it would be channels off first but if it s cut right tucking it in would be ok. There's a place in Peterhead that does wrapping I do believe
  20. At the end of the day it all comes down to personal choice. If you want the WRX go for it.
