When I had my skyline there were some bad reports about them as well. www.skylineowners.com posts about Keighly Trade Centre I was tempted once or twice then did the searches.

Np trails...all is ok
but...meaning to ask something for some time and i forget it...well, question is for all WRX Wagoners here (->2000)...What is your rpm limit in 5th gear ?
For example...
This is my old 96 wagon...
as you can see...260kmh doing @ 6400rpm
And in my 98 wagon i'am doing 245kmh @ 5600rpm and no way i can run it higher rpm's in 5th...
Anyone have some experience to share regarding this? (i think i saw somewhere that wagons have lower rpm limit than sedans but not sure about that)...

Bike rack?
Does anyone know, can i fit a normal bike rack on my wagon? I have a normal one and also a 'special' one we had for our Vectra which had a spoiler so it fitted over. Will either of these fit do you know? And also, when we used to use the one on the vectra it scratched the car a bit, any way to avoid this with my scooby?

i have two pot 03 wrx rear calipers and am in the proccess of finding some 325mm discs for my scoobysport Brembo's-both of which are sitting on my kitchen table-so should really fit them first
agree with the bike comment...i'm not brave enough to own a bike anymore, i've not riden on the road in this country for over 10 years

Wagon Spec
Hello all you Wagoneers.
I need some info on the spec of my new found love.Took the plunge and bought my first Wagon 2 weeks ago and am not sure what all the bumf in the manual means.My wagon is a Green S-reg 98 Turbo 2000 UK.And what i would like to know is what the BHP is and the mpg lol.I filled her up and only got 220 miles on full tank
is this the norm?.It is non modified as well.
Cheers Kev.
Ps Wagons are the Dug's Bollocks

Your car is 208bhp iirc and 220 to a tank is around average for an unmodified car

the smiles wagon is SOLD !!!!!
....Dont know whether to be
or 
I feel like crying as we are now now wagonless and very sad to see it go, but then on the other hand happy to have sold it so quick so i can seriously search for the STI Wagon now that we have funds in the bank
The thing that shocked me was how quick we sold it
We have talked of selling it but never got around to doing it, so last night decided to throw it on ebay for the weekend see what interest there was. I put in for a reserve of 11k with a 99p starting bid and a buy it now price of 12k ... woke up this morning to check on it and it said this item is no longer available - bought with buy it now
Somebody bought it this morning with buy it now for 12k
Been chatting to the guy this morning and he is bringing cash down Tuesday for it
I am reserving my excitement incase its a timewaster, he has 100% feedback and sounded very genuine on phone, as he said he just sold his Saloon as was not pratical with new baby and so was looking for a wagon. Well that was his story anyway so sounded pretty genuine.
We'll wait and see, everything is crossed
