    And its urgent, I cant wait until theres ( maybe?) a free trade deal with the US, So its either Subaru UK/ dealer mark up, or import taxes and VAT on the lot.  Don's indicated total inclusive price looks the better, and unusually, theyre probably better quality than the originals.

    I knew someone would bite . I don't see why the ali ones wont fit ?

    What Trump will do is give us a really good deal and then shaft us later on down the line when we are vulnerable ……… the 51st state is coming.

  3. So yesterday a young lad from lydd  cleared me out of most of my stuff on ebay Wheels and tyres ,rear brembos , whiteline arb , and some rear discs I had laying about . Later on that evening I also sold a golf buggy within ten mins of advertising  he picked it up this morning , while he was at mine I sold him my other golf buggy as well that wasn't advertised . 

    (this is a good financial start to my rotated turbo project)

    Now im watching a F16 at Eastbourne air show and its shaking my windows , with a large Gin and tonic?

    Hi all, after originally joining in 2005 with my UK wagon which I had for 3 years, sold to a squaddie came from Germany, had a few other cars before buying a silver wrx, sold that to a guy from swindon.. A year later in 2011, I bought a 1999 prodrive forester, and like a madman I sold that in summer 2012?

    I regretted ever selling the fozzy, tried to contact the guy to offer to buy it back.... Had no contact with him.... I watched it online regarding MOT's ect, checking with total car check for any info I could get.

    Done this for 7 years!!, untill mid July when it can up 15 mins away on EBay out of the blue. Anyway ... Long story short... Arranged a viewing, test drive, still had the SIDC stickers in rear windows!, same guy owned it, px to a trader, offered 1200 to his 1500, eventually accepted, gave £500 deposit...thought I wasnt ever getting it back!!!...

    Looking a little worse for wear, it needs some loving. Couldnt bear the thought of it getting in wrong hands, its had thousands spent on it, very unique, and sentimental to myself ?.

    Welcome home green fozzy!, 

    From one forester owner to another you have my respect , good luck and hope to see you  at few events.

  7. This is what I did in the end and it has made a tremendous difference , while the diff was out I took the opportunity to replace a weeping drive shaft seal .

    While I was in there I replaced my rear whiteline 22mm arb for this prodrive item .

    Now I don't know much about anything but the car ride is much softer whilst having more loss of understeer to the point where it feels like a cart ……. prodrive trickery I suppose.

    I test all my steering /handling mods on this road .

  8. Thanks Don you are correct the holes on my subframe are offset one being up the other being down .

    the product I bought was summit swave item with the holes that mirror each other .

    I did see a summit swave brace like the beatrush one you showed but couldn't find it again on google , im better armed now .

    Would the panel think it would be just as good to use the uprated super-pro bushes that just used the existing holes ?

    If so what part no ? and also they now make inserts to fill in the voids on existing bushes , are these worth a look?

  9. Hi, hope everyones got their factor 50 on.

    So ive been noticing a bit of play in the drive train .

    I bought some new engine mounts (not fitted) a group n pitch mount and a group n front diff mount both of which are fitted I also want purchase a rear diff brace.

    so I guess my question is which year impreza has the same rear subframe as my foz sti if any?, ive already bought one that advertised it would fit but its nowhere near.
