Hi all I have a V6 wrx wagon and I want to wind the boost up to 12 psi I'm pretty certain the factory controll solenoid has packed a sad and the car is on spring pressure and I don't know if I should get a bleed valve style or cheap electronic boost what's everyone's thoughts

Yeah no codes with the plugs ill have a go at cleaning it out soon

Yeah was wondering about that whats the best way to free it up

Ok ill give that a go when i locate a compressor

Have had a look and no obvious leaks anywhere quess ill have to check under the manifold or get a leak tester

Ive got a 99 v6 wrx wagon and its boosting between .4 and .5 bar which is the eqivilent of 6 - 7 psi and i believe thats wastegate spring pressure i have checked for codes but nothing comes up also sometimes when your in fifth gear put my foot down it winds up to a bar then hits cut and drops to .5 again anyone have any ideas?

Lol just wanted an idea of an easy way to do it but there isnt realy want it off the straighten the number plate frame and make it attach to the vehicle properly lol

hi there im trying to remove my rear bumper on my 1999 wrx gf8 wagon has anyone done this before?

hi all i have a 1999 Subaru WRX wagon GF8 and was wondering what sort of clutches people recommend im keen on the idea of doing a the odd track day or drag race day so will probably need something slightly heavy duty

ok so now have the pedal retracting fine just picked one from work (repco) and made it fit lol genuine spring is about 20$ from the dealer but the car is kinda shuddering when going into gears most of the time not all of the time tho so im thinking i may have to do the clutch even tho its supposed to be done before i brought it but who really knows lol just dont know what sort of clutch i should buy should i genuine or go aftermarket

Will have a look tonight come to rhink of it think my old 93 legacy had that pedal problem

Replaced that already was alright then went crap again

Yeah i will go out and check it im sure it only has 1 point and i think it does have pipes runing along the fire wall

I have brought a 1999 gf8 wrx and noticed that the clutch pedal only retracts half way old owner told me he had recently put a new clutch i Took it to a mechanic to instal a new slave cyl and a master kit and a good bleed and was sweet for a day then went back to half way retracting Then i replaced the fork spring and it was better then it went crap agai Got a rebleed was sweet then jumped in it ths morning and its doing it again Question now is what do i do? Its not leaking anywhere only thing i can think is its geting air somehow or the new slave is sad

Yeah definately a fan of the factory air box theres reasons that they dont have pod filters from factory

I plan to leave it standard ish all i realy wana do is bov and k and n air filter as its my daily drive car

hi all i have a 1999 subaru wrx gf8 turbo and its standard apart from a 3 inch turbo back exhaust and now i want to get a BOV for it but being thats its a 1999 and a v6 it has the bolt on factory bov to the intercooler now what are my options other then dishing out 400 for a hks ssqv is there maybe such a thing as a universal flange adaptor for subarus?

Just went and had a look at what all the wires were for under my bonnet turns out they were everywhere have got rid of it now

Did give it a quick google and it kept trying to tell me that did you mean solve haha thought it was remote spot lights but it doesnt seem to work

Hi i just recently brought a 1999 subaru wrx gf8 its an import and it had a zolve remote in the glove box and upon looking at the motor today i noticed a box saying zolve radical lighting system Just wonding what it is the remote lights up but nothng works maybe works neons in japan or somethng

Thanks for the picture

Yeah will have to get it scand did the engine light test but no codes came up

Update: Have now ordered t5 and t10 leds of ebay will probaly take about two weeks to get here will take photos

Lol yeah thought id post it up somethng as simple as that being so annoying

So i purchasd a 1999 wrx wagon turbo manual and after a day i noticed that the clucth was on half retracting it had dirty clutch fluid so i asumed it had air in the system So i sent it in to a mechanic to replace the clutch slave and install a master cyl kit got the car back and was good for 20 mins was going to take it back to the mechanic thinking he had missed something But i was talking to a guy at work and he said i should check the tenision on the spring for the realease bearing and i did this thought it was ok but i replace it and sure enough its now fixe So moral of the story i spent 150 on the clutch when all it need was a $3 spring haha
