Well really, I know that its not a sport, but the Shed™ was pretty decent on fuel, never complained, and was still decent enough fun... I cant say that it was more expensive to run than the 2 Ford Escorts (not mines) that I was running before that... But that was a 1.8 rather than the 2.0 sport...

Stunning! looking real nice... but how long will it last!!!

Depends on the size of the bars fitted I think Euan... if he is running a 24 on the back and 22 on the front, then it woudl be a bad move to put back the standard on the front... if they are both 22mm however, then it would be a good thing... and I'd be doubtful that they would have kept your front arb mate, I would have though that that would have been in the skip long since...? Edit: oh, and if you have an adjustable bar (I assume you do atm), then you could try changing the setting...?

Oh, and I think that any garage will only give you back the old parts that came off the car if you ask for them....

Hi Richie, What Size of Anti Roll bars did you get fitted mate? When I got my ones from AWD, I had a chat with Grant about it (he's taken the time to test the various setups), and he was telling me that really if its only for road use, drop links and a rear ARB is all you need, at the time a few people were talking about having the 24? on the back and the 22? on the front, when all you really need for your kind of use is a 22 on the back... then you just leave the front standard... thats the setup that my car has now, that and solid droplinks... The problem with going for the 24 rear and 22 front, its that its a bit too much for road use, and I know thta there are some that will dissagree with that... But I have to say that I am happy myself... Also, if you have the same size roll bar on the front that you do on the back, then I BELIEVE that will be whats causing the front end to be a bit skitterish... Oh, and Your car DID have a front bar fitted as standard mate. but smaller ones... Hope this helps mate...

Oh was it? I never actually looked for the thread to be honest.... well thats something then, how did they get our addresses....?

Remember a while back, quite a few of us got spam from some company selling dash boards or something like that... Well I just got another spam email, from "Prolong Super Lubricants" from some spam list... but it was going on about Scooby Clinic and their sucsess in time attack.... I'm guessing that its come from here.... But ive never used scooby clinic... I'm guessing that they are fishing the msn contacts again... Anyone else getting this...?

I think that 5th gear tend to put some of their features on your tube already? I didn't see it but I hope that it was taped on Sky+ I'd prefer to see it properly than on you tube...

In answer to your first question, is that you CAN get it fixed, from Subaru, but it costs about £70... (think thats fitted) you basicly buy the Screened alarm unit... and that should solve your problems, think that it affected up to the 01-02 cars, so I have the same problem Ive just never got round to getting the newer unit. and yeah, Nice choice if colour!

yes... If I get a chance I'll post it later if I haven't already.... But now, its 7pm, ive had a rubbish day, and i'm going to bed!!!!!

thats what I did... really easy done, but then the wiring was already there for me, as I have a uk car... it was just a case of changing over 1 pin... Although I put in a "bright" LED instead of a bulb, but its really rubbish... you only get the intense light if your standing at a certain angle...

well I bit the bullet and bought them new... it was £200 But they were brand new, and I think that it was worth it... this gives you a rough idea of the difference...

Imy, Look at your lights... then imagine them on Gus's car... Ikk!!!! The STi lights look WAAAAAAY better on your car Gus!

Yer rear ends looking Sweet Gus... the Cars ok too!!!

Well done grant good to see that the scoobys are still at the top!!!!

I was all ready to snap your car and N1 WRC leaving Banbury, but It was a bit too late, I thinik that I never had the switch on or something... So it was not as good a pic as it could have been.... Fail...

Yeah but theres academiea, and then theres "education" Streetwize likes.... Savvy?

Dont have the Time or the bAttery to post properly, as I'm sitting in Barbados Airport... But Ive posted Some, ok, they are not all great, but its the best your getting just now... http://www.flickr.com/photos/thefastone/se...57607077510076/ Enjoy!

"To the man who looks like he should be hunting!" Classic!!!

Yeah I clocked about 1020 miles when I got home... In fact, I clocked mile 500 in the que to line up in the mosaic!!!! Long drive LOL!!!!! The weekend has mostly been made of WIN!!!!

Ive got a few pics, a few of them are ok, I'll post them later on tonight, but I've got a lot to do before then...

And I'm still up and about!!! (Still waiting on the washing machine!!!! ) but got the car done and stickers on too!

Yeah planning on getting out and cleanign my one today, but ive only just got out of bed.... and as Grant says, it'll still be bogging by the time I get to lanark, but its the thought that counts!!!!

WTF!!!! Muppets!!!! but then what can you expect from a "quality" publication such as themselves...

Was just about to say that the other pics that You posted on as look etter right enough....
