Clutdav,

Warranty will be pretty mcuh out the window if it is mapped with the other mods, but if that is not an issue - then there is only one place to consider in the UK - ANDY F PERFORMANCE. People travel from all over the U.K. and elsewhere for his incomparable services.

Try these games for size - "The Ned Olympics" - quite like "Tannin' Windaes"...

The Oil Change according to the Old Ladies on here (scoobynet):-

1. Remove Oil Filler Cap, 'gently' - take at least 5 minutes or the threads will strip and the exhaust will fall off in a weeks time.

2. Carefully jack up the front of car, make sure that only the 'special' car jacking points are used or the steering wheel will be upside down next time you see it (the special jack points are only known to a select few, not the main dealers!)

3. Locate the Sump Plug, do this using an Inspection Lamp with a 100W bulb - do not, under any circumstances, use a bulb of lower wattage or the splash cover under the engine will melt and pieces will be sucked up into the MAF and then immediate engine failure will occur.

4. Undo Sump Plug whilst humming 'Oil Be Home For Xmas' - do NOT sing any other song or the Radio will never tune into any local stations again and the aerial will need to be replaced at the next service.

5. Allow Oil to drain into a Tupperware Perspex Jug - use only perspex as other plastics react with the old oil and particles travel back through the draining oil and attack the Big-End Bearings.

6. Whilst Oil is draining run around car 15 times in a Morris Dancing Outfit with the special Subaru bells attached to shoes.

7. Remove Oil Filter by unscrewing anti-clockwise 5 times, then clockwise 2 times, continue until filter is free ..... failure to do this will result in the new Filter not filling up with Oil on start-up.

8. Fill Oil Filter with Oil and screw new Oil Filter on and replace Sump Plug - there is some discussion about the order that these need to be replaced, many an evening in a B.O. smelling corner of a dark pub has been spent mulling over the merits of both choices ..... there is a 'special' way, but we are not sure what it is yet.

9. Start filling the engine with Oil - Synthetic only please!! and of course, Subarus need 'special' Oil - Mobil made a 'special' Oil just for us!!

10. Now it gets complicated, the engine start procedure ...... remove the spark plugs, coil packs and battery - remove the seats and rear boot/tailgate - ensure Octane Booster is removed from tank as it might spontaneously start the car when you are not ready - take the drive belts off - turn engine over, s....l....o....w....l....y - engine should be turned over at least 67 times to ensure adequate Oil film coverage.

11. Return all components and start engine whilst whistling the theme tune to TITANIC ................ if you are VERY lucky the engine will not shoot a con-rod through the block (this normally happens to MY96 cars which are MicaPink in colour) - but ALL Model Years can be affected equally as bad.

12. If the engine started without any problems, then don't be smug as the MAF sensor will blow up your engine within 3 days in any case!!!!!

OR, do as the Main Dealers do:-

Change Oil - start engine - check for Oil drips - return to customer!!

This one was headed "Parking for women"

Wish I could have come but no luck. Sounds good though.

What happened with Billyboy - is the car alright? And was Matt a naughty boy?

Brian

Whiteline rear drop links and Prodrive springs - much the same price as Eibach's, made by Eibach (as far as I am aware) but to Prodrive spec, specifically for the WRX model they fit.

Brakes are a very good mod - well worth it.

But, as stated above, the best investment in handling is driver training, although you are more than a dab hand at track days

Brian.

Not good

Who knows what has happened, hope it is settled soon for the family.

Brian.

Hi Gordy,

It was actually today (Saturday 20th) - you're so busy you are a day behind!! See the photo's in the other thread.

Good luck with the car.

Brian

Should you really sell the Terzo though - it looks great

It's me mammies birthday, so afraid I'm not going to make it

Brian

Not a dig at Fifers - those at the meet will get the subtle humour, and who made the Freudian slip!

Press the quote button on the thread where it works and in the reply box you'll see how it is done

Yes - they are all a bit blue!! It was very sunny - and now having checked my camera it was on Tungsten mode - oh well, adds a Robocop style feel to them all

Brian

Hi all,

I have attached all the photo's I took today, some not great including plenty of pics of people's cars (including mine for your enjoyment. If anyone wants the better quality image then I can send it to you.

Great weather and a good walk. Well done everyone for turning up and hope we raise a lot for Santa Cruise Scotland 2005.

Well done Spooks for organising the event and booking the sun

SIDC Dog at the rear!!

ImprezaPete shows Spooks his crazy idea to graft the front of a Fiat Multipla onto the bugeye!!

Forester Gump!!!

A bit of lounging about!!

Nope - the More store!

It is now a legal requirement!

BTTT

Don't forget - Spooks takes YMCA to extremes:

"You can have a good meal...do whatever you feel "

Coalmines and combines eh , sure there is a song in there somewhere. LMFAO

Spooks >>

Yep - true - pretty sure that one was sung by a Ladyboy sitting on some dubious guy's knee - probably from Fife (in the West of course)!!!!

Brian
