Default Just to say hello

Hi guys, my name's Chris im from somerset and currently on my third Scooby, first was a 05 wrx which I loved to bits and then went to a 05 sti both being blobs ;-) now I've invested in a forester 05 plate 2.5xt which has rod knock (don't worry I knew when purchased) got it cheap as a project :-)

just thought I'd say hi and post a advice thread which will be in the engine section if you'd like to put in your 5 pence :-)

thanks guys hope I'll meet some of you guys in the process of the project .

Good luck to you. There are some great forester threads on here if you're looking for inspiration:

Brown pants racing also has a really nice fozzy.

To be honest what I do and how far I go with it depends on how long my interest in it lasts... I've had two blobs now and would love another however I went for something a little different which is out of my comfort zone it's not my typical taste in subaru but it's growing on me a lot:-)
