    Brilliant, it's the SJ shape I like. are they all 2014 cars?


    I think it has most of the STi parts on it already.

    Can't see many for sale in Japan though... and cost looks about £14k shipped.
    I've only come across this one.. which reads a bit tatty on the info sheets
    SUBARU FORESTER TS | 2015 | BLUE | 89246 km | details.- Japanese used cars.Goo-net Exchange (goo-net-exchange.com)

     

    I watched this and Sarah put a 2014 wrxSTi saloon HKS exhaust om her XT.. which she's trying to make look a tS.

    The SF5’s simply stunning! ?

    That’s a very practical 2 car combo you’ve got there, nice. The anthracite alloys really compliment the white on both of them :cool:

    What transmission did you go for in the SG5?

    its auto with the speed shift buttons on the steering wheel. it does make easy driving being auto.. just a bit unsure when it's snow on the ground.

    can't understand the ECO/AT/HOLD mode button though lol

  3. after 4 years of ownership the SF5 2002 Forester Sport went to is new home a week last Friday.. with 64550 miles on it. One happy new owner.

    The replacement I got the week before.. a JDM, Forester CrossSport 2007 SG5 (fresh import last November) 55k miles
    Doing a few bits to sort it out, nothing major.. sprayed the alloys, a few touch up on lower front bumper scratches, new H&S Zorst (centre & back box). Waxoyl and Pedders kit going on as I felt it went over bumps weird... a shock is on it's way out. Other than that it's all good after being checked over.

    Out with the old...

    Working my way around it for detailing it, seats were bad so I aqua vac'd those.
    engine bay coming on nice, body work needs a good clay bar and DA, which I'll do as and when.

    Still waiting on DVLA for teh V%, so can't put my plate on.

    note: if selling a car.. do it on line and don't send the paper work in... you get the V5 back in 4-5days. Same as Private Reg transfer/retention.. 4days got the V5 back with old reg on! 6days I got the V778 retention certificate! 
    I've been waiting 4weeks now! (posted it off)


    Thanks for looking

  4. would 18 X 8.5 J et38 5x100 alloys off a 2005 STi fir on a 2006 Forester?

    It's the 8.5 width (should be ok)  with et38 that worries me.

     

     

    anyone any advice on what the std 17" OE alloys are and what you can go to with after market.

     

    tia

     

  5. looking on AT, and saw this.... 

    https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/202002117194319?advertising-location=at_cars&model=FORESTER&make=SUBARU&onesearchad=Used&onesearchad=Nearly New&onesearchad=New&postcode=ng43nh&radius=1501&sort=relevance&page=1

     

     

    All reads well and looks good.... apart from the missing Cross Sports Badge on the grille... and the Cross Sport Badge on the boots looks a it high up (might have had a prang on the rear?)

     

    It's the Part Service history.... would could that mean???

     

     

    TIA.

     

     

  6. just remember to get the star logo the correct way around, don't have it mirrored 

     

     

    the star logo needs to have the large star on the left side.. no matter which side of the car it's on.

     

    google WRC rally cars and you'll see wha

    t i mean.

    Was this his first or second incarnation of the WRXSTI ?

    He's currently reverting the engine bay  plumbing back to standard on his current car, as he's keeping it (as of yesterday)

    9185472215_8c5383e318_b.jpg

    this was his first.. he sold as he thought it might blow up... he went on to have a couple of RS's before he came back with the saloon again.. that had had some work on it before he bought it.
