We’ve been pretty quiet again recently but now Subaru things are happening! Shiny bits have been gathered over the last few months and last weekend the forester was dropped off to have the next instalment of work completed. This includes the G25-660 turbo, custom rotated up and down pipes, 44mm external wastegate, 4-bar MAP sensor, exhaust gas temp sensors per cylinder, flex fuel sensor, custom hard water lines and oil lines, Tial BOV and a few other bits and bobs. I hoping when it’s back it will be a completely different beast! Watch this space.

Well the forged 2.0 is out of the ra and sold, been a great engine but needs to make way for a couple of small upgrade!!

Update on The forester. The parallel fuel kit is on! But what a bu**er it turned out to be as the Intake manifold had to come off (see pic). A couple of small leaks initially but all good now at 3.5bar. What an ugly engine bay 🙈 it needs sprucing up abit!

Some new goodies for the Forester! A new Garrett G25-660 turbo with reversed inlet housing, a Fuji parallel fuel rail kit with fuel pressure regulator and a GFB 44mm external wastegate. Hoping to get these on over winter so the Forester is ready for the track in the Spring! 💪🏻

A few snaps of our track day at Mallory Park on Friday. A great little track to get acquainted with Claudette for her first track day in our ownership. She didn’t miss a beat and put quite a few other cars to shame!

All we did was adjust tyre pressures on the day. We left the damping settings as they were as the car was already handling to our liking. I’m sure we’ll play with these next time.

The car could benefit from some braided brake lines as, even though we’ve put racing brake fluid in, we were still getting brake fade. She needs better pads and discs up front too!

Just a possible fuel leak to look into but all was good apart from that! Already looking forward to her next outing! But in the meantime I’m sure we’ll get back to tinkering with our Subaru’s!

Slightly damp here at Mallory Park but the racing line is drying up now. A few offs so far but not from Claudette! We’re abusing her and she’s loving it!! So far so good. Still 🤞🏻 that the cambelt doesn’t snap 😂 we haven’t stopped yet! Straight back in the queue when a red flag is shown, like right now. Rain forecast at lunchtime though 👎🏻

The awful exhaust has finally gone! Replaced with a K-tec Stealth system that is a lot quieter and almost half the weight. Replaced the bumper too and although being a slightly different colour, finishes the job off nicely!

Claudette is all ready to go! A cheeky little stud kit will make life far easier when taking the wheels on and off in the future. We’ve already lost count how many times the wheels have been on and off already while prepping her. A geometry setup booked for Friday and she’ll be track ready!

Meanwhile I’m loving the colour choice for nicks wheels on his Ra Impreza. Very brash but complements the red bucket seats and looks great against the black and white. 🔥

The suspension is going on! Considering this is a track toy on a budget, coilovers were out of the question. Any worth having are £1k+. So we’ve settled for a decent damper/spring combo which will perform on track but also be good for the road too. We’re looking forward to seeing how it will handle, compared to the springs that came on the car, that were simply to make it look lower.
