  3. Used to run a silver Forester XT before the bugeye
  4. Bringing your Minder
  5. I bought my first Scooby back in 1997 thinking it would be a car I wouldn't need to mod having owned Fords before that I'd turbocharged etc. - how wrong can you be Even my latest is going through a transformation and it's not just about power mods............. Scoobynet thread here....... http://bbs.scoobynet.com/members-gallery-5/896843-my-old-2011-wrx-sti-saloon.html

  7. The A/F sensor (wideband O2) is in the manifold, just before the up pipe. Only item in the up pipe (apart from the pre-cat) is the EGT sensor which if not replaced can be mapped out or you can use the 2.2K ohm resistor fix for cel.
  8. I think biggest factor for me will be the weather

  10. Here's a few more.............. Attended the SIDC/Essex Police Driver Improvement Course - Nov 98 and my original Red Turbo 2000 appears third from right at the Surrey Meet - Jan 24th 99 http://www.otway.com/car/meets/index.html
  11. As I said, usually need cutting/splitting off. They take the brunt of the crap thrown up by the front offside wheel.
  12. The connection between downpipe and 2nd cat pipe has, 1 nut/bolt and 1 stud/nut combination which can be replaced with 2 bolt/nuts to fit the cat delete pipe. They use a stud for ease of fitment during assembly. Like most of us who have done the job before, the nuts will probably need cutting/splitting off
  13. Red Arrows, Eurofighters - there's only one reason to go to RAF Coningsby......... The BBMF :icon_salut:
  14. Didn't stay quiet for long then
  15. no just a single piccie of those that managed to get info in on time Have added a few more pics to my gallery including new springs following the cavalcade. http://forums.sidc.co.uk/gallery/album/5302/538-latest-ride/
  16. 'bout time that spanner was drilled then
  17. ^^^^^^^^ Usually a bit of followed by
  18. I use a pair of water pump pliers for all the OEM pipe clips on mine....... Not sure if the blobeye's the same, but the later cars have a clip that locks open so that its easier to refit and you just need a screwdriver to release it to clamp. Have always found that its easier to remove once you have unbolted the recirc valve from the intercooler.
  19. It does..........
  20. You know who you are Good to meet you three and hope you had an uneventful(not tooo many "P" stops) trip back "up North", oh and you Rach as well
  21. You've been busy Yes, seems to work very well. I enhanced mine by adding some stainless steel mesh around it's central core, so that any oil mist has additional surface area to separate out onto.
  22. Three threads, some bits the same but some different, depending upon what was asked etc. http://bbs.scoobynet.com/members-gallery-5/896843-my-old-2011-wrx-sti-saloon.html http://www.surreyscoobies.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=39789 http://www.subaruforester.org/vbulletin/f75/time-change-83859/ Carbon Pulley cover (not wrapped) came from Scoobyparts http://www.scoobyparts.com/acatalog/copy_of_copy_of_copy_of_CARBON_FIBRE_PULLEY_COVER.html The "the wee tank with the STi and Pro-R logos" is a Summit Racing Cool Rad panel re-sprayed satin black http://www.just-subaru.com/my08-summit-cool-radiator-panel-80995-0.html The good thing about it is that the covers the whole of the front panel. An earlier photo............ Keeping the engine bay clean has been one of my "obsessions" and have done so with all my Subaru's. Jet washing I have found not to be a problem and have never "covered" any of the electrics whilst doing so, although keeping the spray away and warming the engine first helps. I use this for cleaning........ followed by this.......... Have followed these instructions since 1997 without a problem....... My previous FXT when new......... After 8 years and 120,000 plus miles...... and another Forester I was involved with...... Before.... After....... Hope that helps..
  23. Not sure if the Vid is included in previous writeup but watching these will help........ a one man job.
