From a Subaru dealer and excluding warranty or insurance claims
I'll start the bidding at £3,567.85 yesterday :p No complaints though.. excellent job :D Let's hear some wallet crunching STI engine replacement costs which should top my meagre sum easily... and will make me feel alot better anyway ;) :rolleyes: Cheers Si |
£200 for a service and some brake pads :)
|
well apart from buying it 800euro for service and brake upgrade ;):D
|
well, waiting to find out how much the gearbox will cost, but until then, prob about 1900 quid for a nice set of brakes and fitting
|
€ 2,400 (1500 quid)
Major service (everything except cambelt) Front brake disks & pads 4 X Winter tyres Boost gauge |
Cambelt, service, front and rear disks, front and rear pads,
£1,400 !!!!!!! |
OUCH !
Sipie - were they confident of the cause in the end ? |
SiPie,
Thats a hell of a lot of cash to spend on a Paperweight for your desk ! |
£88 for a full service and cambelt change :-) (including parts!)
|
Colin L :p.. want to borrow it to keep all that paperwork on your desk from flying away? ;)
Riftzone Yup... the report says "shorted HT lead (damaged by guy who was replacing plugs [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] ) caused unburnt fuel to build up in cylinder 2", then boom, melted the piston dragging the bits everywhere.. :rolleyes: Just one of these things....and what a delight it is having to run in an 86,000 mile car :( Hats off to Willie at Nobles, for doing a brilliant job. Feels like a brand new car :D |
Chockymonster - please explain. Or did you miss a 0 ?
|
i'd be givin the bloke who replaced the plugs a severe thrashing in that case !

ROTFLMAO at that last comment :D
|
Not an impreza but my biggest cossie bil was 9.5k for a properly sorted engine and ancillaries. Can anyone beat this ? I am sure they can
|
Cossie
Ouch. :eek: Come on peeps, any advance on 9.5k ? |
I took my red MY98 UK turbo in and got a bill for 10K and they had resprayed it blue and all the bits were new and had been replaced ;).
|
ChrisP
Bet it came out slower than it was before though ;) |
Did you not choose to make that upgrade cossie? Sipie's bill was not by choice :eek:
|
Only for the next 1000 miles ;) then I had a standard 280PS to play with :D.
|
ChrisP
You and me in the same boat them mate..... The difference is I'm having to run in a car with 86,000 miles on it that I've owned for a year and a half:rolleyes:.... kind of a weird experience if the truth be told :confused: Kenny -,---,-- The above space is reserved for your bid when you get your quote from nobles on Friday mate ;):D |
:(

ditto cambelt, service, disks & pads front & rear for £1,100 @ 44K. that's a big difference in charges ... |
£536.00 45K service cam belt few other bits.
|
Yes it was my choice awesome engine though everything balanced lightened shot peened etc and it ran very smooth. The 9.5k was just the engine and direct bits and bobs and incuded a full F1 spec turbo rebuild . The engine should really have been displayed in my front room as it looked more like a work of art.
|
I paid £3000 for a 998cc Hillman Imp engine rebuild, back in 1988. Does that count?
P.S It reved to 12,000rpm :D LOL |
ask scott davies about his option motorsport bil.
Gmae, set match adam m! |
John Felstead = nutter! :D
|
i think i may have the biggest
|
Hillman imps are cool and superb fun
