Came out to my car break time at work today,puddle underneath. drove home home from work (slowly as the old giffa in a micra insisted on 30 in a 60 zone) got to my village and engine temp needle heads for the red.
So again the intrepid Triton motorsport are coming out to look at it.
Ive decided if i have to make that phone call again to them it will be to put it back to standard and return my money.

2K SHOULD MAKE A FAST RELIABLE WRX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

rant over

Hope all goes ok mate and it's something simple like a hose has come lose. Like you say, £2k should make a fast reliable car !

Sometimes the smallest things piss you off, glad you got it sorted fella.

Hopefully it will be ok now - might be worth while going round and lookin for more loose stuff and tightening anything up yourself

Your probably right, it's just bad luck I think, the banjo clip hadn't been moved since the car was made and through temp and time become seized and weak and just didn't like being loosened and retightened

yep its one of those things like replacing turbo nuts once they come off. can never guarantee they will do the job next time. hopefully u can have some fun than get paranoid everytime u take it out
