  1. Doh, I can't see me doing that then lol. I'll just stick with selling the car as it is then. Cheers for the help guys!! Stoo
  2. OK, I'm thinking about turning my impreza back to standard and sell it off cheaper so..... My car has a few mods with a ecutek re-map. If i sell the mods is it just as easy as swapping out my ECU for whoever buys my mods ECU?? That way they get a cheap deal and i get some cash back. Cheers STOO
  3. Crappy Iphone pic................ Oh ITS FOR SALE!!!! LOL I'm gonna try and get a proper good nightime one this week!! STOO
  4. Andy says they have been developing it for a while. It is already available for the US market. I hope its out soon cause that would be awesome to have on the car. Andy also said that it would be proper anti lag, nothing like what he can put on the now. STOO
  5. Got my hawkeye mapped today for the first time using the Ecutek. Really impressed with the Ecutek and Andy, car feels a lot quicker and more useable now. Car made 330BHP and i think it was something like 360 odd ftlb or torque. Pretty good considering I still have the standard downpipe in the exhaust system. So I'm kicking myself that i didn't get that done before i went but i'll get one fitted and pop back over for a re-map when the update becomes available so that the uk/euro hawkeyes can get the proper switchable anti lag and launch control!! Hopefully that'll be soon! Still gotta get my petrol leak sorted thought!! STOO
  6. I sold my 350z to get the scooby, you would hate it! I think the R34 would cost too much to upkeep. I thought about a R33 and that was bad enough!! Defo get a 09 STI, with a few choice whiteline bits!! STOO
  7. Dvla has my vin number inputed wrong. Figures it out now though can't get a gasket till tomorrow and my mapping at 10 stoo
  8. Hi can somebody pm me a vin number for a hawkeye sti impreza??I have somebody at a Subaru garage just now and they have written down my vin number wrong and the guy at the garage can't look up the spare part without the vin number. Thanks in advance
  9. Just found this.................... "I would have thought so,It may be its not burning quite right cos of the plugs,I only asked cos i used to get a petrol smell in mine only in the mornings and only when i had over half a tank of fuel which took ages to trace as there were no leaks etc and it turned out to be that the fuel pump seal was not fitted correctly which allowed fumes into the car" Could this possibly be my problem??? Where will i get a spare gasket?? subaru cupar is citroen or something now?? STOO
  10. Ok, looking for a little help as i'm totaly desperate to get this fixed, so i'm clutching at straws here. here is my post http://forums.sidc.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=137322 I'm getting the car mapped by Andy on friday at 10am so i'm needing this fixed before then. So any help suggestions would be amazing and worth lots o beers!!! STOO
  11. my filter was £4.50 from a local place called Mr.Mechanics STOO
  12. I cant wait to get mine done next week now!! Do you spend the half day with andy or do you have to go spend time in port seaton?? STOO
  13. Done the oil change tonght, i got a blueprint filter and used silkoline 10w-50 PRO S oil. Used 4.5 litres and that had the level sitting bang in the middle of E and F. I'm not sure wheather i should top it up with another 0.5 ltr and use the whole 5ltr?? STOO
  14. Think i'll maybe struggle to get booked in anywere before the 28th now not to mention getting the time off work doh STOO
  15. I've got a 07 STI with back box, centre section, main de-cat + de-resonator + HKS filter + walbro and cooler plugs. So might be worth trying to get one fitted before the end of the month then! STOO
  16. Ok was gonna get my set of STI rims done at the local powder coaters but there is a 2 month waiting list. My other option i have is get the tyres off myself and get them shot blasted localy and then get a local guy to paint them for me. £20 a wheel. I would have to supply the paint at that price. My STI is white so i was wanting to go black. So my question to you guys is, what paint to i buy?? I would rather matt. So have any of you guys done this and have any clue what i ask for at the local paint suppliers?? Cheers STOO
  17. Hi, Is there anyone in Scotland that can supply and fit a sport cat downpipe?? I have my re-map on the 28th and i'm wondering if i would be better getting one of the sports cats fitted to replace the oe downpipe cat?? or is the extra benifits not that great?? i.e should i wait till i go bigger turbo and injectors etc before getting one?? STOO
  18. I take it that it's not too critical not buying a genuine Subaru filter then? Stoo
  19. I'm needing an oil filter for this weekend so I've been shopping about, most places sell the genuine Subaru ones for roughly £14.99 and the sti pink ones for £20 (I don't know if they are any different) but I have found the k&n ones and they are only £10. Are they worth using? Cheers stoo
  20. Got all the spark plugs replaced, set them at 0.65 mm. The one on the passenger side back was a mare to do but I managed ok. Been out for a run in the car and all seems pretty good, so I'll try not to use the car too hard till the re map, just get an oil change next weekend then it's ready. Wish I hadn't spilt so much fuel when I was doing the pump though cause the car is reeking! Stoo
  21. What gap should i be setting the spark plugs too?? they have come set for 0.5mm. Found it easy to get into the drivers side but the passenger side looks like it'll be a nightmare STOO
  22. Fired the original filter on the car just now and it started up first time. Found right in the neck of the new filter a rubber blank that was deep inside. It didn't seem right to me in the first place but I didn't want to start pulling bits off that looked that they might have to be in there. Anyway.. Now gotta decide wheather to do the spark plugs or not?
  23. Aye, i'll run it with the old filter. The old filter actually looks better anyway, its bigger and the old one has a plastic rib that looks like it'll stop the filter from losing its shape?? STOO
