hiya lads and lasses, got back on Friday morning from my hols. Whats the meet for ??? My scooby's alarm is playin up at the mo, but hopefully getting it sorted tomorrow, so might be able to pop down

cant believe in an hour show, they only showed seven minutes of the litchfield type 25 looks amazing tho very quick car put it on the xmas list, lol

sounds good to me m8, keep us upto date with it, would love to get them all. bet the old 205 gti and R5 Turbo's would be great to see when they first came out. Remember the old Daihatsu Charada 1.0 litre turbo, my friend had one a few years back, was a bonkers little car!

videos nearly as old as me, lol Great to see the old top gear just for novelty value! Are you adding your collection to your website, would love to have them all, how did you get hold of them ??? Thx Mike

hiya people, just after geting a decat downpipe fitted to my scobby. Anyone in the manc area that would supply and fit one? only place i know is a place called greenwoods in rochdale but not sure if they specialize in sports exhausts. Seen some stainless steel ones on ebay for around the 130-150 area and miltek do one for about 160 direct from there website. Or should i just buy one and get it fitted somewhere locally ? How much do you think i would be looking at approx ?

lol, werid lookin, prob been better in a more subtle colour chrome alloys on subaru Nasty Chav car, should have gone the hole way and put burberry or gucci interior in it! Looks like some mad car from pimp my ride

lol, tried to clean the engine today, so many pipes in the way of gettin any real stuck on grime away, looks alot better than when i started tho

has some deep ones on the rear side of the bumper/body which will need filling and painting, other ones are just the usual small scratches nothing too bad, used a new wash and wax today, it was a right pain left loads of wax marks all over the car,didnt chamosis of the paint properly, damn sun light prob better of just washing it then waxing it seperate to avoid the water marks in the future.

lol these colour coded ones seem to hide the small scratchs really well, plus the shine is not bad for 6 pound wax hope it doesnt rain tomoz, want to get started on the engine,4 years of crap to get rid of ! plus an extra coat of the turtle wont go a miss

aye did come out nice in the pics, some close up scratchs that need abit of attention tho i just used the turtle wax colour coded one that comes with the lipstick style chip pen, was very suprised with the results, i normally use auto glym but just ran out and had some of this left over in dark blue from a past car so thought i would try it.might stick with it, but not sure how long that shine will stay on the car i know some waxes fade pretty quick. No where near as clean as yours Nige from what ive been told yours is 'outta the box mint' Lynx, i give it go , lol only thing i used lynx for apart from the norm,was too set my hands on fire and blow torch stuff ! thx for the posts guys and gals

thx took me a good hour polishing, gonner really spend a good half day on her on sunday if it doesnt rain Yeh hopefully going to get full de cat, but not sure what mine has on at the moment as its got a prodrive back box, so maybe might be a full system? Then going for a remap, dont want to push it too high as the car has done 94k miles and i dont want to tempt fate But miles happier with the front end with the new lights, really wanted some sti ones but they are a wedge anyone local for a remap or is it worth a trip to Andy forrest ??? heard hes the best

thx m8, not quite as clean as your motor really need to do the engine bay, but a bit scared of working around all the pipes and hoses whats the best cleaner for the engine bay?

thx m8, just need the alloys refurbing and some scratchs to the rear bumper and its pretty sorted on the outside, just need to up the bhp, wanted around the 260-280 area, any ideas of what to go for mod wise? i thought re-map and full decat maybe up rated fuel pump? any idea of costs and where to have it done at ???

Hope these pics have worked below, first time i have tried to use photo bucket, wasnt the best time of day to take them, but they look ok. Just fitted the headlamp conversion and a Forge dump valve upto now, but with the tinted windows and pro drive exhaust its not lookin too bad at the mo, wanted to get some sti carbon side covers for where the big orange reflectors are any ideas where i can buy some from havent seen any on ebay at the mo.Ive just spray tinted them for now, hope you enjoy!

good stuff, thx for the info, any idea of what they charge for rolling road ???

what ever it is, it sounds mint! Just fitted my Forge dump valve this morning, ordered 11am on Monday received 7.45am today fitted it before i went to work, how sad is that? well worth it tho, great sound,not quite as nice as that one on you tube.

sounds good to me,maybe early next year we could sort one out? In the mean time does anyone know of a local tuner/company who has a rolling road,ideally wanted a subaru specialist to give my car the once over and get it on the rolling road to see how the engine is, just with the mileage on mine being a bit on the high side wanted to make sure everything is spot on before i start to drive it hard!

Just wondered if any of you have organized a rolling road day? I wanted to get mine done to check if its meeting standard bhp and just to make sure everythings running as it should. But just thought it would be a laugh if we got a few of us together and made a day of it, i know some of you lot have got some big bhp under the bonnet! Anyone know of any local places in the north west, only one i know of is awsome gti in Irlam Manchester.

Ouch 250 ! i was watching them too, is that how much they fetch ???

thx for the directions, ill be down prob bout 12 ish then. Who do i need to ask about getin my avatar working? Just wanted to get my pic on my sig.

yeh was goin to come down on sunday, you all get together about 1 ish ??? any one know the postcode of the pub for my sat nav ??? thx

Wow just got my impreza on my first B road tonight, oh my god how much grip do these things have! I had a Civic type-r last year and i thought that went and handled well. I cant get over the grip, i cant wait to get onto a track day and get it really sideways! Do you guys ever do a group trackday at oulton park or at an airfield ???
