Question

I have noticed that if I try and do a 2nd to 4th change the box just grinds!

I have MY98 UK with quick shift

Any ideas?? Is this normal?

Cheers

Nig.

Nigel,

My 'shed' makes the same noise. Scared the **** out of me, I wasn't expecting that!! So to make sure I tried it again!!! The noise is still there!!!

The shed at the moment is - MY99 UK 4 door in silver with, Prodrive WRC wing, side protectors, wind deflectors, ScoobySport/MIM anthracite 17" alloy wheels, ScoobySport backbox, ScoobySport downpipe, Mangex mid-section with resonator and Ram Pod air inductor.

Nice wheels!
Do you have any CATS on your car??
And where did you get the side strips??

How much better are the new MY99 headlights over previous models??

No cats!!

The side stips I bought from my local subaru dealer. £42.51 + VAT, part number SSACC1196

That doesn't include fitting though.

I personally think the headlights are just as bad, although I still have the ScoobySport driving lamps on the car.

So you want a new one, well they say it's more refined for the more 'mature' driver!!

Any new toys on your car, or are you just waiting to modify a MY01? Either you or Stuart should call me, next time you're down this neck of the woods.
