Got launch control added to the map mate , the cruise control buttons raise and lower the RPM
So just turn the traction control off ? Would rather smoke tyres than the clutch

Other than eBay, are there any places that I can buy a rear passenger side clear reversing light unit, the inner lense on the hatch door? Mine is leaking, can't stop it, and prefer not to drill. Thanks

Has the foam seal on the rear of the light been compromised ? that's usually the only place they let water in

the foam seemed OK when I took it off. Are there holes behind the foam, or does the foam act as a gasket? I got an exploded diagram from dealer that suggests that the foam is available separately. Would that be a solution, Rob? Thanks for replying, you are a great link with the main network.

Hi all,

Looking to change the drive belts over the next few days and wondered if anybody could let me know if this is the right one and do I need 2?

If you change the AC belt you need the little tool to do it as there's no tensioner, I got caught out by this when I replaced my AC pump! The pi$$ take is that the belt is about 9 quid but the belt and tool is 50

The foam acts as a gasket between the lamp & the body of the vehicle. The foam aka Packing is available separate. Not very common that a light would leak unless its cracked.

Ah ok, glad I asked now - thanks Rob. I've ordered and will have a go on Thursday, is it a fairly straight forward job or anything to look out for?

Seemed straightforward, but then again I was watching my mate do most of the work

We'd tried without the tool on the AC belt and wasted an hour before deciding we needed the tool to help. Once he had it then it only took about a quarter turn of the crank to pop the belt on, about 10 seconds work

Pillowball bearings, no rubber bushes = running on rails

http://www.sti.jp/parts/impreza5door.../ST20250ZR000/

Translation:
Set of 4 lateral links with pillow ball bush. By changing the rubber bush inside the lateral link to a pillow ball bush, we improve friction and camber stiffness when stroking, sharp handling at cornering, and realize linear suspension characteristics from turn-in to rising. Pillow ball bush (2 places × 2) press fitted.
