ive got an sti :( (partII)

[Sheilas’ Wheels]

330 is very respectable in one of those, bet it goes well!

 

[Herr Flick]

big word for you daniel.

i think its just how it delivers the power more than the figures itself tbh.
he mapped pops and bangs on it for me and i kept moaning it wasnt doing it enough but now the blowing is fixed, it just wont stop popping lol.

 

[Sheilas’ Wheels]

Vids required.

 

[Herr Flick]

 

[jesus]

Love it.

 

[_Tom]

Lets see the graphs then? Who mapped it?

Sounds like a massive hike from a 4/5 PSI boost increase and decat..lol

Standard fuel pump also?

 

[LIL B]

Awaits pinking thread -> Then Det -> Then what car for 3K.

 

[Herr Flick]

Not just a boost increase and a decat pipe tho is it!I fitted a walbro fuel pump..I am going to get it tweaked and on the rolling road soon so will post the print out from that as the original wasn't on the mark due to the leak.I think I will have to leave it at that as it will start getting silly cost wise to get more power.I will get some videos once I have fitted my new centre section.

 

[_Tom]

What mods has it got to get to 330bhp with problems and still needing tweaking? LOL!

 

[Andyrg@ ClioTurbo]

The Best person to map Subaru Impreza is Andy Forest or Andy Carr and Bob Rawll. DONT get the cap mapped on the dyno mate you will regret it!

333 is what they normaly make on this spec, the lad askign questions a decent hight flow filter, fuel pump and a decat will let the car make this power with a remap

easy get 380Bhp with this engine reliable and for NOT a lot of cash a TD05 18/20G even with your oem injectors!!!!!

ive seen to many melt pistons and bend rods from Debt!!! use VPOWER

 

[Herr Flick]

The above mods mate.
When I say it needs tweaking, it's because he wants to check it's boost correctly and a few other bits I don't understand. The blanking plug or whatever it is came off after the map and the run so it's just a precaution.

I am really enjoying it and at the moment everything is working as it should so I may well just keep this longer than 2 months...

 

[frayz]

Who mapped it?

 

[RDH]

That vid isn't filmed in this country?

 

[Dunn]

That's what I thought too Lol

 

[Herr Flick]

not my car.
daniel just asked for a video so i found one.

going to try and get a few videos at the weekend.

 

[Herr Flick]

quick little update...

had a couple of hours before lee evans last night so i decided to respray the front bumper. it had been done badly before and the lacquer was peeling and stone chipped to f**k!

it was missing the 'sti' stickers on the fog light covers so i decided to buy some and fit them BUT i put them on before i lacquered it...
anyway, only have 1 picture that ive just cropped to show some of the damage.
the rest are of the finished bumper. (needs to be flat and polished tho)

before

after

 

[Sanders]

Nice work mate

 

[LIL B]

Thats some interesting camber.

 

[devfuse]

sexy beast of a motor

 

[_Tom]

Thats some interesting camber.

My thoughts too..is that normal? lol

 

[Christopher]

LOL. Positive on the front?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Surely that's something to do with the camera, no way it could be that bad surely?!

 

[LIL B]

Did magpie set your geo?

 

[Christopher]

LOL.

 

[Herr Flick]

Camera most probably.

Camber is as it should be.. (going to get it checked tho lol)

 

[Herr Flick]

Right, camber if fine but brakes, not so much..

after a 'spirited' drive at the weekend, my front right brakes were making a horrible grinding noise and felt a bit solid...

so took it down to a mates workshop as i could be bothered to source the issue.

anyway.... i think the pics speak for themselves.

luckily the discs are salavgeable as they arent exactly cheap.

 

[Nick172Cup]

Flol! I've done that to a Clio before, wearing away the backing plate FTW! Bet it bearly even stopped! Did it tear your piston seals?

 

[Herr Flick]

everything is ok (just about) i felt like i should be putting my feet out to stop as it didnt feel like it would stop and the noise was unbearable.

just cant find the correct pads for it. hoping the garage have more luck..

 

[Storm_Force]

bah a few hundred miles left on them

 

[Herr Flick]

well it wont be doing anymore miles as its up on the ramps and will be until we find the correct pads.

i need 65mm wide pads but everywhere has them at 75mm.

 

[Herr Flick]

turns out i have ferrari f40 pads on my car. :S

 

[Jake007g]

Thought you had some kind of infection from the title, car looks nice though! Perfect colour! But yeah flaps look/looked cheap but other than that looks nice

 

[Sir_Dave]

lol ... am i the only person on here that visually inspects pads on a monthly basis?

How the hell did you not notice they were buggered Rich

 

[Scoot]

I don't understand why you have bought this... Didn't you get rid of the m3 to save money on maintenance and now you have been f**king about with this mapping it and putting shiny bits on it?

 

[LIL B]

This is the norm. He will get it in a good way, where he is happy. Then sell it for a £3k loss.

For something cheaper.

 

[Herr Flick]

I don't understand why you have bought this... Didn't you get rid of the m3 to save money on maintenance and now you have been f**king about with this mapping it and putting shiny bits on it?

I am not trying to save money. if I was, I wouldn't of bought an impress.

I sold the m3 for various reasons none being to save money.

It was the pad behind the disc and I've only had it for a few weeks

 

[Herr Flick]

Lil B- what car have I sold at a £3k loss and I didn't do anything to the m3 bar a service.

 

[Englebert]

turns out i have ferrari f40 pads on my car. :S

You mean, the same pads fit an F40...

 

[Herr Flick]

Potato/patato. Sounds cooler the way I say it lol

Still doesn't make it any easier to get hold of them.

 

[frayz]

Dude, theyre standard Brembo STI pads. The world and his wife stocks them.

Call Alyn at AS Performance.
