[Bolt-On turbo replacement for 2001 V7 Sti Wagon??]

Just keen to know my options for a better bolt on turbo that can replace the current one in my V7 Sti.

 

People may know the car from @Subru recent posting, as it used to be his old Sti wagon, is now mine.... 😎

Not sure on the older STI’s setup but 4th gen Legacy’s would often get a click similar to that which was the viscous centre diff. It would be much worse doing tight turns and once warmed up. 

Fantastic analysis, what would be the best way to get this fixed if it is this issue?

[Help Me Find Lowering Springs!]

Hi, 

I am looking to lower my 2007 Subaru Impreza hatchback.

I need help finding lowering springs that will fit my car as I am new to the moding scene.

 

I don't know if springs have model no. or anything like that but if anyone could guide me in the right direction to find lowering springs it would be ideal.

 

Thanks

Gearbox mount is in 3 parts. Rubber main mount to gearbox and then two plates that have figure 8 looking bushes between them.

i have a spare set of those 8 if they are dead or missing, or get whiteline ones. Main mount I've only got is 6 speed one spare.

 

buts sounds like an imbalance from clutch cover not bolted in fully or disc with incorrect thickness or figment to spigot. Low rpm imbalances are worse. Guess the engine isn't rough with the car in neutral so leaves clutch or mounts as main causes.

 

You need to check all the way back to diff where driveshaft connects. Guess if you're already finding loose bolts then there will be more.

Ok thanks heaps il look into it - im bout to head down south right now so.. when i get back-  i i need more of those plates ill get back to you thanks.

Mine does this also, however ive been told its just what heavy duty clutches do

Super annoying in traffic, as the clutch grabs it shudders the whole engine - might have to get ajay to check the gearbox mounts - they are probably the originals lol  

Yeah i don't think it has a heavy duty clutch cause the one before it didn't do it and we just a asked for a replacement, if it is the need a wedgie cause after they left all sorts of engine mounts loose i was angry a.f. so @Gripless could well be on the money but thanks for reply

When its in nuetral it is fine, it only happened when starting in first or changing down from 3rd to 2nd if you put in 2nd and slowly release the clutch.

And im glad you mentioned the mounts and bolts cause when it came back from a clutch change there was a loose anti-pitch engine mount which was real lose and also a bolt holding the exhaust which just made it rattle but i'm wondering if there is another loose mount.

 

Thanks for your reply.

Yeah that's right @Subru my comment about 3rd to 2nd might not have anything to do with it but its mainly when low rpm's in first/starting off

Hi, I'm new around here so i was wondering if anyone knew how to fix my issue..

When I release the clutch with little or no acceleration there is a mass vibration throughout the car.

It started after I got a new clutch about 4-5 months ago, didn't do it before hand.
