The Don

Hope it was a good price ? To get the scalp cap off, the lower trim piece and to remove the indicator assembly from your old mirror you'll need to remove the mirror glass first. Removing the complete unit is a door inner trim removal jobbie............

Part code: 91031U - Part Number: "Door mirror unit kit-left" 91029FG170 (Used my VIN to confirm all bells and whistles version) Most parts sites show this as "no longer available" - looks like breakers yard, unless Subaru UK has one in stock somewhere............... not cheap when new https://partsouq.com/en/search/all?q=91029FG170

I think what Tony is trying to show is On this diagram it's item 32 This is an expansion box which for MY10 onwards was replaced on some models with just a resonator. As the UK wrx-s is a PPP'd (Prodrive Performance Package) car it may already have the 2nd cat removed and have a Prodrive backbox ??? so the next logical step would be to replace the centre pipe with a straight through. https://www.haywardandscott.com/subaru/impreza-turbo-08-onwards/08-impreza-centre-pipe-single-exit.html

Only if you were going for big power (they would need to be mapped out and fuelling adjusted to suit). Tony probably has a different take on them ?

They are fitted to your rex

TGV - tumble generator valve

Is this the version you've tried? for GDB - wrx sti This may also fit, although listed for GC/GF8 (note support bar mounting holes) https://www.nengun.com/laile/rear-diff-mount-support-bar

Something like this?? https://www.japanparts.com/parts/detail/14972

If it has an unmolested silver sticker above/below the VIN plate on the passenger side lower B pillar then it's a 340R "as supplied" by Subaru UK. ProR performance package certificates only issued when vehicle upgraded after initial purchase. It will be missing it's second cat and will have Pro-R (Scorpion manufactured) back boxes.

The original version I was trying to find this afternoon but Subaru of America site wouldn't let me until I was using a proper computer not a phone ? ..... https://techinfo.subaru.com/stis/doc/accInstallGuide/075508-075506-E2410VA000-STIFrontUnderSpoiler.pdf

Could the adjustment made earlier to the Idle control valve to lower the tickover, now be against you, and thus require readjustment to bring the idle speed back up....................... Could also be the ECU needs to be reset for the new maf. http://www.scoobypedia.co.uk/index.php/Knowledge/ECUReset

The side grilles on the 2018 WRX STI front bumper do have holes in them But are arranged to force the air up and over the wheel well liner - ideal for a cold air feed as the airbox sits directly above this area Earlier models had the foglights/DRL's and indicators in this area and the mounting brackets are still part of the bumper. Below with the cover off,. gives a view of the inside of the wheel well liner. View from wheel arch side - it would be possible to insert brake cooling duct through the liner

Pictures from t'other thread...... pictures taken in October '98. Chris Coulson in the red shirt in the wagon as passenger.

There are a couple of us still around who do/did, although "did you know him" sounds a bit ominous.

Welcome to the forum. I'm assuming your uncle must be Richard then??

Subaru of America's "Drive" magazine used to contain all sorts of great articles in it's blueprint sections. Unfortunately it's been taken over by their "lifestyle" guru's and the magazine archive has been deleted/depleted. However some of the articles were copied and appear on various sites. Suggested settings appear at the bottom of this web page for MY08 onwards SI-drive equipped cars http://subaruidiots.com/si-drive-2008-sti-explained/6/ Copies of the rescued articles for Si-drive, VDC and DCCD can be found here in the first few posts (links in the first post now defunct) https://www.iwsti.com/forums/drivetrain-components/118275-vdc-dccd-si-drive-explained-great-info.html

hence the fender flares ...?

Subaru unveils its first-ever S-series vehicle in the United States with the launch of the STI S209 at the Detroit Auto Show. The hardcore model packs an estimated 341 horsepower (not an official number yet) from a tuned version of Subie's EJ25 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder. If this sounds like something you want in your garage, then act immediately because the company is only bringing "around 200" of them into the United States. The S209 is not technically a Subaru model. Because of the extensive mechanical work necessary to create the model, the company actually homologates it as an STI in the United States, rather than a Subie. STI thoroughly overhauls the engine to push the engine output so high. An HKS turbo replaces the standard part, and the upgraded unit packs a larger turbine and compressor. The setup also allows for maximum boost of 18 psi instead the normal 16.2 psi. Inside the powerplant, there are forged pistons and connecting rods that are stronger and reduce rotating mass. The intake system has revised ducting, and a control on the steering wheel activates the intercooler water spray. A high-flow fuel pump, larger injectors cope with the tuned engine's greater need for gasoline. Hand-polished headers provide a shine under the hood. To get rid of the bad air, a new exhaust has 17-percent less resistance and weighs just 4.1 pounds. The only available gearbox is a six-speed manual that routes to Subie's famous all-wheel-drive system. STI recalibrates the driving modes to reflect the drivetrain revisions, though. The S209 reflects its increased power on the outside through a heavily revised body kit. It adds wider fenders that broaden the body by 1.7 inches (43.2 millimeters) over a standard WRX STI. The extra width lets STI expand the front and rear track by 0.6 inches (15.2 mm). For even more grip, the performance division then covers the 19-inch BBS forged wheels with a set of 265/35 Dunlop GT600A summer-only tires. Dunlop specifically developed this rubber for the S209 so that the sedan was able to offer over 1.0 g of lateral grip. As a further handling aid, STI gets serious about the S209's suspension. It rides on a set of Bilstein dampers, with stiffer springs and a 20-mm rear stabilizer bar. A flexible front strut tower bar and front/rear draw stiffeners add extra rigidity to the body. When the time eventually comes to slow down, the S209 has a set of Brembo brakes comprising cross-drilled rotors, 6-piston front calipers, two-piston rear calipers, and high-friction pads. There are some very minor tweaks to the S209's interior. Drivers grip a flat-bottom steering wheel with Ultrasuede upholstery. Occupants in front sit in thickly bolstered Recaro seats with silver center inserts. The S209 will go on sale in late 2019. Subaru will announce the price closer to launch, although hardcore Subie fans will likely pay whatever the company will ask to own the most hardcore STI ever in the United States. Source: Subaru
