  1. Cant wait to see this one Jim!!!!
  2. Glad your ok mate, gutted for you! but like has been said, Cars Fix or replace.... people dont... And as others have said Airbags are no use for anything other than front impact.... and have been known to cause injuries anyway... (better than what could have been though) All that sets them off, is just a weight in a tube, the weight is thrown forward with a sudden stop making the contacts and firing the charge in the airbag...
  3. mebbe it just needs bumped up every now and then....?
  4. Ta neil! bit of a joke theres really.... Yo see I told you the forces were crap!!!!
  5. Well Sunnyhill motors... Hmmm yeah... dont tend to have a many actually quality cars... but generally the best dealer in the area, but Ive never used them so I dont really have an opinion on them... Wallace performance... Again, not used them, but Heard a lot of bad vibes in the past about them... blowing up customers cars and the likes... I'm sure that someone will be about to fly that flag soon... theres a few of the Aberdeen lads that will use them, and are happy with their work, but I suppose like any business... you get the good with the bad... the Powerflow centre that you mention is called Turriff Tyres... normally good for reproduced wheels and the likes, exhause with I dont know the quality of the work, although I think that there have been bad stories about them, as with any busuness, I can substatiate... again Ive never used them... End of the day, how does the car run? Are you happy with it? You can always go to arrange that You trust and get the car checked out for peace of mind...
  6. You play the Pipes Dave, Never knew you had it in you... But what? you guys being serious here? they want to make bagpipes quieter????? They have been told before on issues various, Go **** yourselves you garlic munching good for nothing (usefull) so-and-sos! Oh your banans are not bendy enough, You cant sell them, your bread is not the right size, you cant sell fruite and veg refering to that weights... Its not this country I hate for that, Its europe... But why we go along with some of these things I do not know... Anyways, back on topic... I was just marshalling the Scruitineering for the Granite City Rally, and during a quiet time, I though that I would ask the guy nicely if he would be kind enough to check the noise levels on my car... Standard system with a prodrive box... 80db @ 4500rpm the nose limit for the rally cars was 100db... Ive heard people say that Oh but the bobbies will do you with a Prodrive system/back box... well that's proof... they cant.... that was well quiet, some say that the limit being 100db for road use... well to be honest, some of these rally cars were REALLY loud... but they were all below the 100db mark...
  7. Aye, but all that paint will be weighing you down John!! Looking good though!

I was out and out hate it... but ive seen 2 up close now... and its growing on me... looks WILDLY different from the WRX which is only a good thing, but for some reason, Ive not seen ANY good photos of them yet...
