08/09 Hatches, Stand up and show yourselves!!!

I've used Yuasa hsb056, Platinum 054hd, and Bosch S4 018. As Don pointed out, they all have jap terminal posts. They don't hold much power if you do short journeys or have cameras etc running when off, so a trickle charger or spare is a must. Edit most come with the adapters for UK posts

Thanks Gambit, good shout, I'll do the gearbox mount next.
Confession time, I'd already bought the pitch stop, but when putting in on earlier I had a sudden panic when I saw how much more solid it was vs the original item.
I didn't want loads of NVH.
Anyway, it's on and I have to say, it's made a huge difference.
Transitions between on and off throttle, pulling off, gear changes all feel much nicer.
Maybe my standard pitch stop was badly worn, but this is a BIG improvement, I wish I'd done this a long time ago.
Results may vary, but for those who have more aggressive clutch / flywheel setups i can't recommend this enough, it's a no brainer.

I understood the trans mount made more vibes than pitch stop uprated? I was debating Perrin vs group n only last week! But spec c is possibley already stiffer sti bushes

ive put the hardrace gearbox mount and also the whiteline uprated rear diff brace bushes in both my previous hawk sti & now my 330s. both cars are daily drivers and there is no real noticeable increased nvh. ive also the sti group N pitch mount fitted
@matt-c - the standard sti pitch mount is very soft so perrin one would make a fair difference!
@hedgecutter - this is where you need to Don to confirm if you get them or not

Spec C has same pitch stopper (41040FE000) and gearbox mount (41022FE010) as a UK Hatch which are also the same as a UK Hawkeye.

afternoon all, once the hatch is back I want to change out the mid pipe, I dont want to lose my Prodrive back box, what options have I got?

I've the 330s Prodrive BackBox. I swapped my centre cention back end of last year to the one scoobyworld sell,
http://scoobyworld.co.uk/catalog/pro...oducts_id=2066
sounds great and no issue with it rusting anymore lol

the 330s apparently don't have the 2nd cat anyway.
this pipe just is a straight fit.
it's only the centre pipe but you'll notice a sound difference.
plus i saw 344.4bhp on RR a few weeks after being fitted ..... doubt it made a difference

Could someone help me with the part number for the front windscreen washer pump?
I can't access opposedforces from work and the dealer is not much help either...
Thanks guys!

rear ( ﾘﾔ ) is listed as 86611AG000
front ( ﾌﾛﾝﾄ) as 86611AG010

I'm hoping someone can tell me ( and I 99% know who that invaluable person will be) the part number for the M10 x 1.25 20mm bolts for the chassis cross member, and also the same for a 30mm one.
Alternatively, a link to an exact flanged alternative, as I'm finding it hard to track down. Many thanks.

Are you refering to the alternative bolts supplied when the front cross member support kit is fitted??
Standard bolts are M10 x 20mm
When the front lower brace is also fitted there are a couple of M10 x 22, M10 x 22 and M10 x 30 bolts required but no part numbers listed as they all come in the kit.
Nearest local off the shelf alternatives (not plated)

When I recently had the rack bushing failure, I found that the one that pins both rack and kit had failed. I used black Powerflex rack bushes( the failed Whiteline ones were so soft that they pushed out by hand) and I added the Cusco rack brace that you kindly had shown me. Thank you once again.

thats ridiculous, I know people have had a few issues with whiteline products not being up to scratch recently but 9 months is full blown crazy!

At the same time I had an arb that peeled, top mounts that are rusting (at top where it's dry) and drop links that were nearly rigid. Superpro next time

3 weeks now i've been without min - starting to forget what it even drove like 
its been away getting ID1050x injectors, avo silicone inlet, litchfield power steering pump fitted plus other wee odds n sods - length of time is due to it being a side job as such but still quality work @ OMA Performance Subaru hence not being too bothered
