  1. Thanks I will try this. I have already replaced the boost solenoid. What is the standard boost pressure?
  2. Not yet but they do feel hard and brittle. What size are they? i was also thinking the diaphram in the actuator maybe?
  3. I have a my97 sti v3 and the engine check light is on the dash, the car seems to fuel cut at 4500rpm. I hooked a boost gauge up to the car last night and it's peaking at 1.6 bar on a standard car surely this isn't right? The car has no boost controllers or bleed valves, alsomade sure the actuator arm was moving freely and its ok. I checked the codes on the ecu and it's showing 24 and 33. 24 is idle control solenoid and 33 is vehicle speed sensor. I replaced the idle control solenoid, replaced the boost control solenoid andalso replaced the maf sensor and the fault is still occuring. Has anyone ever experianced this before or know what I should be looking for?
  4. If you don't mind me asking how much was it as I am thinking on getting mine done.
  5. Has anybody got a pic of an hks sqv on a version 3 sti? Just want a peek to see how it's fitted.
  6. Yeah sorry its the fm side as I do air con
  7. no they ain't they are still going as I may have an interview with them
  8. Did mcginn phone you about this? He had a rocky robin in his pants when he was telling me about it
  9. Yeah really! it was prob one of the most exciting and talked about things in rallying last year was Barry johnsone on the jim clark
  10. he got out the car and collapsed after that with a few broken bones also!
  11. Just been watching come dine with me all afternon on more 4. This week they are in Glasgow 4 girls and 1 guy and when they visit his house there is a classic shape impreza with a version 5/6 spoiler and lexus rear lights sitting in his drive.

  13. Yeah it was me and Dan up in my 555! Only had it 2 weeks but loving it, needs a few bits and bobs done but will get there in the end. Yours looks the gem paul. Great day out today!
  14. not yet but that sounds like a good place to start. The connections seem ok but I will check if it's getting power. 12v a take it?
  15. After getting code 24 and 33 and the engine check light coming on, I have replace the idle control solenoid and the codes are still showing. I am a bit stuck and very reluctant to take it to my local subaru dealer. Any suggestions folks?
  16. Hopefully it's something as daft as that.
  17. also if this idle valve failed or was sticking would it make a ticking noise?
  18. Silly question, is the o ring rubber? Going to take it off on saturday and have a look. Done a search and this seems to be quite a regular occurance on imprezas.
  19. I,ve done a full reset and the cel light eventually came back on
  20. anyone?
  21. would an induction kit bring these faults up? The car had a kit fitted then put back to the standard airbox. Any suggestions?
  22. I started this thread and my name at the begining was strapper now as I post it's just strap?
