This is the next one in june next year 10 of us going

Goldeneye Bungee Jump at Verzasca Dam, Switzerland [220m / 721 ft.]

Have fun

In a import scooby you have to run shell v power with some octaneboost as jap fuel is 100ron.

The car will det on 95ron fuel and let go

Looks like a synchromesh problem m8 to fix it will need taking out

Just get that box rebuilt as a good 6speed will set you back about 2k m8

You mite be hitting boost cut of fuel cut m8 I would get the car booked in for a rolling road and get it tested to make sure its not under fueling

I would find out if the wrx ecu has had the new board and been mapped.

If not get it mapped as it will blow up if not

boost seems to creep sometimes i would check the actuator m8

no you will not need a map

You need to chech the engine ecu fault codes mate (look in the tech section in the 'how to' thread ) to see if perhaps the crank sensor has been knocked or some other sensory issue, it is possible that the timing belt may have jumped teeth but the engine itself will be fine.

Cheers Iain

What Has happened is the pulley on the end of the crank that the cam belt drivers has rotated on the crank as the key way is not there.

This has made the timing move so the car will not start if you where to time it back up put a key way in it will start.

The crank is now turning out of sink to the cams

He is in reading if you pm me your number i will give it to him and get him to call you m8

Good man go for it he new it was non-interference.

Just trying to pull the wall over your eyes m8.

And it will not start because the key way is not in so the timing will now be out.

line that up put a key way in and she will fire up but he will no this two.

Morning All,

Just a quickie,

Does anyone know how the pedals are fixed in an 09 STi? By that I mean are they all mounted on one horizontal bar or are they individually mounted.

The reason for asking is that when pressing the brake pedal I ocassionally get some movement on the clutch pedal. Is this normal or is it something I should get checked out?

Thanks

I get this on mine try moving the mat down a bit as mine dose it when the mat gets under them.

To: Norwich, Norfolk

Distance: 156.9 miles (show in km)

Time: 3 hr 14 min

I will pop down for a cupper be there in 5 lol

I think this will have to be a phone job of a local sidc member that knows what he is doing to go to the garage if it come to it

Top bloke, cheers! Would these "bent" valves be visable?

I'm phoning consumer advice tomorrow morning then going from there. If they say I have a leg to stand on I'll pursue legal action if he doesn't give me my money back.

no m8 as you would need to take the heads off to see a bent valve but you can do a compression test that will tell you..

As for the non starting it mite be that the crank sensor is now not working as it mite have been hit.

But more than likely the timing is out now as the pulley has moved and it is trying to fire at the wrong time.

looking at the end of that in the pic it would not have had a key way in it as it would not fit.

The end has been built up with weld so the nut could nip up and hold it.

He cant say its what you have done as its a doggy repair.

What i would di is get an independent to go to his place of work and do a report on the car.

That will make him pay up as he No's he is in the wrong

I have just bitten the bullet and bought one of these bad boys for my 95 WRX import, front splitter next anybody know of any deals going on these, If I go for the STi bonnet do I have to change the head lights and grill as well.

ebay £129+P&P

Simon.

If you go for per 96 them no but if you go for a face lift then yes.

If you want face lift parts then my mate is braking a wagon that he got this week.

( Subaru boxer engines were non-interference engines through 1996, run by a single timing belt driving both cams (both sides of the engine) and the water pump. Because they are non-interference engines, if the timing belt fails, the engine of the models up to 1996 will not be destroyed. The oil pump is driven directly from the crank shaft and the waterpump by the timing belt)

He is talking out his ass m8

That can't happen m8 as it is non-interference valve safe as said before so the cam belt could have snapped and it still would not have bent a valve.

There is no way on this earth you could have bent a valve give me his number i will call him lol

Best not as i will only make it harder for you.

The car was not fit for purpose there for he needs to give you your cash back.

Or he needs to fix the car end of.

Its has valve safe heads so you can't bend a valve

np I said the same two my wife .

I said right i will sell the old scooby and get this one its std and i will keep it that way

Lasted 3 days before i changed it

I don't no if the wrx runs solid buckets m8 or the hydraulic i no the sti runs solid but i don't no about the wrx ???

Yes m8 thats the same as mine

If it was big ends it would do it at 2500 rpm to 3000 rpm and sound like a truck.

On the uk turbos you have hydraulic lifters and they get soft what you can do is put some stuff in the oil cant remember what its called.

But it will clean the lifters out.

But in most cases they will need new ones but its cam shafts out job.

oh you bugger

what sort of price posted ? and colour?

i'm useless at making decisions

Its what look you want on my old car i went from a small to a mid.

But after a bit i wished i went for a v5 so on my next car i did

Have a look at the two pic's then see what one you like most
