Hello

Petrolheads
Got a nice 01 WRX a few months ago from Carroll & Roche Subaru in Tallaght and thought I'd better join this forum to get some expert advice from other owners - I have a lot of questions that need answering!...

Anyway here's what I am aware of regarding the car specs - the thing is I don't know enough about the standard car to know what modifications were made exactly and what things are standard items:

Car: Subaru Impreza WRX 2.0 Turbo
Power: ~don't know
Exhaust: 3" sport exhaust
Engine Modifications: K&N Dump valve (atmospheric)
Suspension: Lowered & stiffened TEIN suspension
Chassis: Front strut brace
Wheels: Speedline alloys
Brakes: Upgraded brakes - drilled & grooved discs
Exterior Lighting: Quad headlight conversion
Exterior Modifications: Front splitter (lower spoiler), Hiline rear spoiler, M-3 style wing mirrors
Seats: Prodrive
Interior Modifications: Turbo pressure guage
Security: xxxxx alarm system

I think the previous owner was a member of a subaru club but don't know if it was this one - i think it was - he was in the army.

Also I don't exactly know the manufacturer or specs of things like the brakes and exhaust to know if they are good or bad. Any way to find out?

I want to ask some questions about some problems I notice like slipping clutch when power is put down at speed in 4th and clanking noises from rear while rolling slowly in traffic. Don't know cause of these or if it is normal.

Should I ask about these in the general discussion forum?

OK thanks, I removed the alarm name and also the registration number!

Money is tight at the moment, hence not wanting to have to get official Subaru dealer to look at it and charge a fortune...
 
welcome along , tidy car and unusual colour 2 ,

your at the right place to have your questions answered
 
Howdy,
Post up in the technical question section and hopefully some one will be able to shed some light on your clunking issue and clutch slippage,
Get in touch with some of the traders in the traders section and get prices for clutch replacement and advice!
They are all sound lads to deal with, (or they wouldn't be on here)
Also, if you join up as a full member , alot of us (about 30)meet up one evening every month for a chat and grub and we have events running on weekends about once a month also,
Any of the lads there will identify the parts on your car and advice you!
Best of luck with the problems!
Dan
