Hi just wondering if you guys can help. We have an 08 sti. This weekend the pipe has come off where it goes to the panel filter twice. I think i can remember this being talked about on this thread and just wondered what people had done to stop it happening ??
Cheers.

clean out the joint (inside and out) spray hair spray over the overlaps and re-fix...

(I cheated and replaced with a zero-sports kit)

Gauges, I've been looking at scangauges etc, are there any other options of this type of gauge and what sort of readings would I want it to show, oil temp, boost etc, the scangauge seems to have loads of parameters but most seem useless, mph, mpg and so on?

Cannot be bothered to go down the normal gauge route as want something I can just plug into the obd.

Thanks
A

Hi Arronb,
I use the HKS Camp2 through the Subaru Sat-nav head unit. Need sensors for oil press/temp, boost, EGT, but get batt V, air flow, air intake temp, throttle pos, etc from obd2. Displays as 1 analogue gauge +5 digital, or 3 analogue gauges.

You can hear the sat-nav directions, but not radio as you select "video" to view. I just flick to check engine from time to time then back to map/radio.

Cheers Stan, that looks great, its just I have the non nav unit so am restricted to 52mm type gauges or scangauge type, scan gauge looked ideal just does not give that much usefull info.

Thank anyway

No worries
It would be far too expensive to have to buy a display on top of the Camp2

Just a quick 1 to all out there.

Is it just mine, or does anyone else out there have a car that doesn't like cambers? My old classic never flitched at them, but this 1 I'm having to steer into the camber to prevent the car dropping down them. I'm not talking severe stuff either, just gentle slopes.

Might be worth getting your geo settings adjusted Simon..

Mine is currently like that but wasn't like it before the spacers were fitted, so am hoping this solves it.

AFAIK the answer is no, from what I have read the hatch seats do not fit earlier models and guess it works both ways.

Put this on our forum in exterior, plus a bit more info:


Know this is very cheeky, don't suppose anyone has a WRX lip splitter, STi roof spoiler or STi lip splitter I could borrow do they? Can be accident damaged, I just need to make the moulds up.

Can anyone do me a quick favour please. For those that have front lip splitters fitted. how do they attach to the bumper? Are they screwed on or are they press clips?

Cheers.
