Update: Yep have enough oil, Needed to adjust the linkage to the gear selector, We have 1st and 2nd working fine but not drive yet.....at least my mate can get to work, very frustrating tho !

Had a similar prob in my Legacy, I took out two spark plugs (too lazy to do all four) cleaned them and it went 1st pop,

lol don't even have to have school c math to become a copper these day.....standards are slipping, (maybe one day i'll be able to join!)

I know some BR's and they don't care, they are already driving with no wof no reg and prolly no license, so how do you stop these people?? crush their $50 car so they go get another? I know for a fact if crushing comes in and they take my 10g car and crush it, it will encourage a more of them against us attitude, I will also not stop for police if crushing comes in, this means i will take stupid dangerous risks to keep my car, my family or yours?? I like the rego/wof being different stickers tho as that will get half the dickheads off the road

From my Mrs....they look like a box on wheels, and prolly handle like ****! No offense intended to any forester owner out there

whats happening? got it running yet? jk

2nd that!

76kw wasn't it?, yeah he had probs with the dyno early on, i think its about right tho as have done some more mods since the last time i was there and got a slightly higher KW reading.

Make :Subaru Model :Wrx V1 Year:1993 Name of Dyno :Apet Date of run :10/04/09 Kwatw: 177 Will post dyno sheet up when at work (cant scan at home)

the whole car looks very similar to the new shape camrys, IMO - very ugly!

the Mrs said "I'm not a nana yet...just a mum, lol" she is set on this average auto one from a car yard...If your in Dunedin is a Blue V7 halfway down KV road.

Amen to that!!

Yeah but i dont want an auto one [quote name='Simon C said: You may find that the Spec C is a bit hardcore for her taste. While I find it perfectly streetable, everyone else who's ridden in mine (back when it was still stock!) found it bumpy and noisy after years of cutsprings and then upgrading to adjusties i think she will be fine with the bumpyness, (she currently driving a p11 4wd primera on 18s - pretty stiff susp setup in them), for the noise thats another story....but have had turbo cars with 3'exhasusts straight thru in the past with no sound deading so cant be much worse than that... Only thing im a bit concerned about would be the 30kwatw (guessing) to 180ish kwatw (its 205kw atm? - Might be wrong) sounds like an exciting way to write of a car to me! to be honest i havent seen 1 bugeye model i like yet. there used to be a silver wrx V7 with 20' rims and thats the 1st one i like....(insert boy racer comment here) But at the end of the day, it will be her car. Thanks for all the comments, i have gotten her to read this forum (hiya T) so she can get a bit of understanding

Well if she doesn't want it, guess I'll get to thrash it, she just wants a tidy quicker car, she been looking a auto V7 wrx...trying to convince her to get a C Spec tho as if were gonna spend the money......might as well get the best bang for our buck,

Sweet, I'll keep it in mind, i'm going to have a txt round as postage on that would prolly be more than the purchase price.

its for a 93 wrx, but early 90s legacy single turbo is the same.

Hi Guys, Im using a dummy block/heads and part of the exhaust to do a twisted turbo setup out of the car, but im missing the 2 sections of exhaust that come of the heads, i have the front centre peice and the uppipe, does anyone have that part fo the exhaust lying around? Thanks

opps my bad....should have read properly.......

Could be the thrust bearing? only thing that i could think that would squeal.

Gidday, What is a realistic price for a V7/8 Wrx, the mrx is dead keen on the bugeye shape but i prefer the next shape(teardrop front), also how much more would the STI version be? This is for a 2nd car as the mrs sick of crusing in our primera (4wd Auto) thoughts and opinions please

finally got the trans in and topped up with fluid but now its not shifting from 1st to 2nd under load but when you back off it goes to 2nd then thru to 3rd, is there anything i could have missed to make the trans do this, when we pulled trans from the donor car it had no problems going thru gears, any ideas?

Cheers, just another thing to try, its odd, both me and my mate have same problem and both seem to be going sporadically, mine has totally died now i think tho!

FTG

oh cool, prolly don't have the reciept tho, yeah i havealook in the daylight, ma mate who owns a performance/painting type shop did it, i'll take it back and see what he says, thought it mite be an easy fix thankx

hi guys, have had an alarm for bout 2 months and lately the nosie has been gone from the alarm, when i arm/disarm it.. you know the 'woop woop' anyways my mate came around and he got the same alarm with the same problem, i looked around the siren/under dash for loose wire and no the trick of pressing the other button etc but no luck, has anyone else had similar problems or know of the cure? Cheers
