Who here owns a Subaru?

Don't forget, as you have a wagon, it really makes it boomy.

Strangely enough, when my Dad had a silly loud exhaust on his WRX, he padded the boot with some like cotton wool fabric. Couldn't have added even 1kg of material, yet majorly reduced the cabin boom.
 
Nice VLC Snapshot :D

You did what what? Did you not buy a filter as well as oil? To change both at the same time?

I've always found it really easy to access :) If it's really tight just stab a screw driver through it and twist. Then replace with new!

Remember to prefill the oil filter before fitting. It takes a while to do as they really soak up quite a lot of oil.
 
Thanks for the kind words! I just try to help in the same way that I have been helped by others in the past. :)

I have blue flaps and STi in pink on mine. I like how it looks. I also quite like smaller gloss black flaps though.

Well, I cant believe Im saying this after just over a week and a half ownership... Im going to sell up. Ive always wanted to own one and adore the look and sound, but Im not gelling with her. Such a shame.

I need the log book first (4-6 weeks maybe?)

Right now I dont even know what I want?

Nissan 350Z?
Honda FN2 Type-R? (Previously owned an EP3)
Honda DC5 Type-R?
VW MK5 R32 (Owned for only a few month and sold, but strangely attracted back)

The common thing shared - all N/A cars which are relatively small. Im wondering if thats what Im missing, that high revving, linnear power perhaps?

...and Kosta - never expected you to consider selling, you bored buddy? Ever owned a V6? Loved the sound of that on my R32. Was quite a heavy slow car but somehow still felt fun on quick blasts. Then as a daily driver was comfortable....

...jesus why did I sell it!! lol

You definitely need to give it more of a chance. It takes more confidence that you think to really lean on an Impreza. Confidence comes in buckets with a bit of time and a few suspension mods.

I'm far from bored. In fact I just think I would like something different, but then I think of the cars and the running costs associated with something different, then I drive the Subaru hard and remember why I've kept it this long!

I have to agree with gurdas on this, £s for performance there isnt anything that can rival the scoob, evos command a higher price, performance benefits are not justified imo.

I really am enjoying my scoob, the power delivery is superb, mines has has a open source remap, so the torque pulls me along nicely from as low as 2700rpm.

I have completed 2400+ miles since the beginning of august, just looking forward to some dry weather lol

Scoobydoo69 i can understand why you would consider selling, my view is you will regret it unless you get that ultimate car for yourself (mine being r35) i sold my 550bhp cossie, literally just after having GT30, WON NITROS OXIDE kit, £3500 swedish gearkit, do i regret it?? YES!!

Hence my return to the next best affordable performance vehicle. S U B A R U.

But you are the only person who can make that decision :)

R35 is on the wish list, and is doable - but it requires a bit of finance. Realistically I would rather put the money in a second property than another car though. I'm thinking about a Classic V3 STi. Something about them appeals to me.

Is there any harm in buying a second hand walbro 255 fuel pump?

No harm, no. But why bother, they're not exactly expensive?
