  1. I reckon itd look a bit shit with the reflective strip removed to be honest lol I like the mk3 one, l looks much nicer I think
  2. as above, looking into mk3 boot lids as they look bit cleaner than the mk2 boot
  3. my work do 4 stud hub spacers, all kinds of sizes, just spacers, not hubcentric type spacers though, if I was to buy the 10mm spacers would I need longer studs? or is there a bit of thread left after 10mm being taken off the length?
  4. anyone going? its 9-6 and im heading down tomorrow with a few people just seeing if anyone else is
  5. every time I see a notification for this thread I keep hoping someones actually done something about it, it's a shame really I can bet he'll end up getting away with it, the longer and longer it's left!
  6. drove about 10 miles today to college and back, boosted a couple times, sat in a lot of traffic and it barely smoked, is that just cause I havnt been booting it much?
  7. ordered the rebuild kit for it so should turn up monday
  8. I have a top entry td04, the one with the compressor housing that had the 90 inlet bend if that makes sense lol one of these .... http://i.ebayimg.com/t/Subaru-Impreza-Top-Entry-TD04-/00/s/MTIwMFgxNjAw/z/~eQAAMXQudxRYz5E/$T2eC16V,!zEE9s3!Y(10BRYz5EB70g~~60_35.JPG what td04 is it? 9b? 16g? 15b, t, g? lol? need to know so I know which rebuild kit to buy, or are they all the same to rebuild?
  9. yeah mine came into the car when i had my windows open today i was almost choking lol!! it was only that bad one time though, the rest were pretty minor, boosts like magic though, preying it isnt stem seals, how would I check? manifold off and check any oil around the ports?
  10. im burning oil from the exhaust it stinks, fine blue, sometimes bit of white smoke, its only when Im idling for more than about 10 seconds or if Ive just come off boost and stopping at traffic lights then it starts smoking, thinking either turbo or valve stem seals?
  11. whats a decent figure for the oil pressure to be at? if i was to get a gauge i need something to go by
  12. cheers mate, Im calling Camskill tomorrow to see if they have the switches in stock ready to ship theyre only £6 so may aswell replace that too
  13. oil was around 2/3s, it was on the 3/4 mark when i filled it but obviously where my turbo oil return is leaking then its lost a bit, would i lose much pressure through that?
  14. done around 100 miles on my engine so far since the rebuild, had timing set up so its safe to hit small amounts of boost to help break it in, boosted today on way to work and my oil pressure light came on, then when i pulled up, it turned off, was only on for around 10 seconds. unplugged the plug that sits on the oil pressure switch and started the car and the light didnt come on? faulty oil press switch? slight oil leak through the oil return too (td04) sorting that tomorrow
  15. happy with his service, received the item when expected, got it out to me as soon as he could and I'm happy with the item itself cheers dude
  16. why not just send items with signed and tracked delivery? at least then you can always keep an eye on it and you know whether its been sent or received etc etc...
  17. im gunna have a look tomorrow its driving me crazy!! boost controller stays on when cruising then if i come off throttle it cuts then i hit the revs and it turns on, and it makes a clicky noise that the ignition makes when you turn the key, annnoyyyiingg!!
  18. just started driving my car again now its rebuilt, happy days, but everytime i come off the throttle, boost controller cuts, then when back on the throttle it comes back on ,and i experimented it did it every time! what is this? Its an Apexi AVCR. loose connection?
