  1. I think Subaru use 10/40 for servicing, but have a look on OPIEOILS website ,they recommend the type for your car through a selection process. https://www.opieoils.co.uk/c-861-car-engine-oils.aspx

  3. Find the best price for the kit and see if Duncan at Hypertech will match it, if not buy it and get him to fit them. They also can do a full geometry setup which will greatly improve the handling.
  4. Had BC's on my 06 STI and found they couldn't be adjusted to the standard ride height (may have changed now) alternatives would be V-Maxx adjustable coilovers 25-70mm lower with adjustable damping £650 (Ebay), Eibach pro-street adjustable coilovers 25-70mm lower fixed damping £960 (revolution247), KW Variant 1 25-70mm lower £1,140 (Ebay) all these will give the same ride height as the prodrive springs. Had my rear shocks done at IG before warranty ran out, fronts went a month after and had no joy getting them replaced. Subaru use to change them with very little fuss but obviously things have changed. Robert
  5. Hi folks, UPDATE Date now confirmed as 12th December 2010. Route has been notified to the police, Santa Run is on as usual in the morning but will be clear by the time we are heading through. Santa's have reported for duty. Donation forms have been handed in. Stickers being made by GBSTI. Meal at Peter was a great success and loads of Raffle prizes. Shopping trip done (1 Wii, 1 Xbox, 2 TV/DVDs, 4 Boomboxes, 2 Karaoke machines, 4 digital cameras, loads of toys, games, DVD's CD's). Storage of present sorted. Prize for best decorated sorted. Meeting point will be ASDA Robroyston just of the M80 J2 - G33 1AD. Time 10.30 - 11.00 which gives plenty time for a chat and to decorate the cars. Convoy leaves 12.15 sharp, route will be available on the day. Arrival at hospital 1.00pm. Cars with presents to the main entrance everyone else will be directed to the carpark. Everyone meets at the main entrance for the publicity photos. The hospital lets us use the canteen facilities while Santa visits one of the wards to hand out a few presents. After the last couple of years a lot of us have headed to the Harvester at Hillington for a bite to eat. Robert
  6. Thanks to CraigMcD for fitting the brakes on Mandy's car, great service. Also a thanks to Chris at Eurocarparts for the deal on the discs and pads.
  7. Hi & welcome to the forum, remember to check the events section for local meets, trackdays and shows.
  8. Another good write-up Scott, shame the car let go. What about a project thread when you develop the car to go from Club to Pro.
  9. What mods and has it been mapped? More info you give the easier it will be to narrrow the problem down.
  10. There use to be a black one but don't know if it is still on it.
  11. Ian also give a 12 month guarantee on his discs against warping even for track use.
  12. I running Godspeed discs on both and no complaints, avoid EBC I had a set warp and know of a couple other that had the same. Mintex 1144 or Ferrodo DS2500 pads are good. Also heard AWD are good for brakes but not used them.
  13. Really good figures Iain, is that just V-Power no booster or meth? Robert
  14. Nice to see you took your time and got a good example. Will have to pop round for a look. Robert
  15. Don't think Chris will every be finished. He told that was it back in March.
  16. Is it the V-Power rewards card, if so you register online with Shell Rewards you can choose what you get airmiles, vouchers, etc. I get the money vouchers for fuel every 3 months.
  17. Glasgow/Strathclyde Meet see Scottish Scoobies Events for details.
  18. I'll text my mate tomorrow, he had someone remove and replace mine when he did the stone chips on the roof edge.
  19. Hi and welcome, just wondered were you at Alford 3 years ago? You bug looks similar to the one that won the show n' shine. No kit, the roof was white and wheels were silver.
  20. Actually like the new layout, I seem to remember every forum change over has had complaints and then we all get use to the new one.
  21. Hi and welcome, car should be sound if it's been looked after by Duncan.
  22. That'll be 4 litres of V-Power then, would be as gallon but that would take me over the £5 limit.
  23. Have let Mandy know, we have nothing on that weekend, babysitter booked, so good to go. Will book up over the weekend.
  24. Have you tried heating it with a hairdryer to see if it softens?
