I should have waited for the glass info and now ive broken it 

Do we know if this section with the three bolt holes slide out or does the back of the mirror come off to get at the folding motor ?

Thanks Don

I suspect some one has hit my mirror .

Ive taken it apart , one of the screws was a bit difficult but came off .

How do I get at the motor ? and is it replaceable ? 2004 fsti 

That's great buddy , I mean him taking a bit of time with you and your boys .

When I was about 10yrs I asked Nick Faldo for an autograph at the open championship …… he told me to naff off !

Anyone still looking I just got the 1999 one in my change at the local boozer

Ill have it , ill turn it into a ring 

As I said a pal of mine went on holiday and parked his car where I sometimes park, right outside my house.

So naturally I did the decent thing and put a nice sticker on his Honda.

Thank you Tony ! the oil lines come with the kit (ive been doing some research)and the air in side of things is no longer under the manifold unless your talking the hot air which I have seen routed under the manifold.

Your saying the clutch fluid needs to be replaced because it will be closer to the turbo? Also would I need a out of tank fuel pump . 

Would a gt35r be laggy on a 2.35 or should I go for a gt30r ?

So I have decided to go with a full kit from RCM but with out the exhaust manifold as I already have that part this brings costs down by £600 plus the sale of my existing turbo and various other bits will reduce the purchase to £2550 .

Can anyone shed some light on any unforeseen problems that I may encounter? or point me to someone who can . I would just add im looking to avoid Enginetuner.

Can any  of you wonderful people see any problems with a rotated turbo set up in my forester sti ? I have thought of a couple .

1/ my perrin fmic boost tube is right in the way (who should be used to alter this )

2/ my header tank could be in the way (where would you move it too)

Any input would be greatfully received and I would just like to say that most of my projects come to fruition so any words of wisdom will not be wasted .

Reading the various articles we may get a teaser at this years Tokyo Motor Show in October and a new version "may be" shown at next years Tokyo motor show so nothing solid until 2021

As an aside next years, JDM Impreza - Whether it will come to the UK who knows.

2020 Impreza (G14 revision D)

 

 

 

 

 

A major step backwards in my opinion?

Well that's a challenge . I think you should post the said big central turbo so we can all have a drool over it.

Great to se you over here Fivo's

Then of course the one that got me thinking and discussing with Don at JDM Combe ???

Although this is not a compound turbo set up , the image kept coming up when I was researching the subject .?

It would appear to be a SF Forester of some description, resprayed in WR Blue Mica with a Blobeye STI hood scoop, Bugeye headlights and a customised/aftermarket front bumper.

Those are some awesome Scoobs Floz!

I agree keep em coming !

Passed the recall inspection back in 2012, a long time ago!      They were also looking fine just a few months ago when i had a good look underneath, but have rotted from the inside since. Only spotted when I had the wheel off the other day, and part of the arm looked dodgy, soon opened up when tapped with a toffee hammer and poked with a screwdriver!   

Replacement arms on order from Rock Auto as suggested by Don, u cradle bolt set ordered from ICP, and trying to get through to the nearest dealer for last few bolt/ nuts.   Trusted local garage will fit once Ive got all the bits.  

take your point about talking to Subaru, but honestly cant be chewed arguing with them or dealers, rather make my own arrangements.   Guess I should inform them though.

(p.s.  Luke from ICP reckons the alloy wrx arms would fit but may need washers on the front bush delending on subframe.)

 

 

I spoke to 2 mechanics today and they said the alloy arms do work. One said they have done it in the past with no issues but since you have the rock items ordered ill just leave this here for posterity.

Why Did I get charged £20 odd import tax for my gauge pod from Ortiz?

brake it down for me . im not the sharpest tool in the shed.

Cheers Don .

I know its not that much of a deal .

I cant see why the aluminium ones wont work (second hand) 

This might be more speedy for the Op
