Just sold the car, and thats a long story!

 

No way, it was a nice looking motor especially with the Prodrive rims.

Why did it go?

 

A number of reasons really Arron....

I had to use increasingly for buisiness site visits, and felt more than a little nervous when leaving it in some of the areas I visit. I returned to the car to find youths with their noses against the windows on a number of occasions recently. The hatch is a great car, but I am quite sure that I have made the correct decision.

 

Anyone got a single DIN headunit installed on their hatch - any pics?

I'm missing my full iPod connectivity of the Pioneer nav unit I sold but i'm not sure if I can justify spending big bucks again.

Cheers.

 

Not the neatest due to the non-std width centre console fascia - but it cost peanuts & enabled me to re-use my HU from my last impreza with a recess for the ipod

 

OK guys, I've been talking to Mark at HT Autos about making some STI fog lamp covers like these


If he has enough interest it could be a goer

Is anyone interested ?

 

Daft question but would we have to have fog lights to fit the covers ?

Mine doesn't have the fogs but i like the appearance of the covers.

 

+1

 

I'd imagine they would just clip into where the stadard covers go.

 

No, the covers will replace the crapy looking plastic inserts.

Not sure now they would work if you have fog lamps fitted as I think they protrude the lines of the bumper
People with fogs correct me if I'm wrong

 

If that's the case Silver Demon, put my name down for a set in black (price permitting)

 

Damn I love those Advans...




photoshopped obviously...


And I'd have this over the FRS everyday of the week....

 

Advans were my choice wheel when I was looking to change, just could not justify the sky high price!

 

I know... They've come down a bit, now £1500 I think.. still double the rotas though...

 

Where did you get the facia insert from? All the shops I've tried don't do 1. ITs the only thing stopping me, I've found the head unit, it does sterring wheel controls too

 

I am interested then price and quality permitting

 

I'll put you on the list

I need to get over 10 names and then I'll approach Mark at HT Autos again.

Hi,

I have my 08 STI booked in for a service next week and I mentioned to the dealer about this over lean fuel issue when hitting the fuel cut off.

Are UK cars affected by this, or is it just USA models?

Dealer says they have never heard of it and that they would be the first to hear?

Anyone had this ECM flash done and any info on it would help me to explain the issue to them.

Thanks in advance.

 

told my dealer of the issue and they booked it in for a reflash under warranty, mine is an eu but it affects all models.

 

As Arron said, all 2.5L cars need this re-flash (all they do is reduce the map so it runs out of steam with minimal torque long before red-line) Duncan showed me last week... quick fix & cop out solution... effectivly newtered the thing at 6k onwards

 

Lovely hatches

Further to my earlier post offering my Kenwood DNX-7200 head unit for sale, for anyone who might be interested, it is now on ebay.

Cheers!

 

Just a heads up for WRX owners, I put an ad up for a possible exchange deal on my wheels and grill, but the sale section moves so fast it might not have been seen, anyway here ir is...

Loving that, is that a std shell I see instead of an STI one, guessing you'd throw most of the STI equipment away anyway so makes more sense to by a 1.5 or something!
