  1. I can't recommend Zen Performance highly enough, excellent service and what they don't know about Scoobies isn't worth knowing. 01933-675432 Also reasonably priced. They are in Wellingborough so up the M11 and along the A14, i reckon about 45 minutes.
  2. What time is the meet on Tuesday? The wife is off and i should finish work early so will try to make this one. Thanks
  3. yes mine will be seen quite a lot by the hospital, it did have decals (yellow), but got fed up and felt conspicuous, so took them off using hairdryer. I have now booked it in for a respray to replace the paint i took off my passenger side door. I used a new place by Homebase excellent service and cheap.
  4. thanks for your help guys. car is red with roof scoop, silver wheels. You're right there does seem to be a lot of scoobs around Huntingdon. Whats you're scoob like?
  5. Has anybody used or know of anywhere i can get my wheel alignment/geometry checked and altered around the Huntingdon area, my handling is poo and i have also got wheel wobble. Thank you in advance
  6. Took the children to see it today. If you like the Simpsons you will enjoy it, not as funny as normal episode, but has it's moments. The 90 minutes went pretty quick and the children loved it.
  7. great day - pity had to take children, but got to meet Johnny Herbert and sit in Jenson Buttons F1 car, James Bonds Aston Martins were brilliant. No luck with the prize draws more the pity, could have done with another car for the kids to wreak.
  8. We are going Sunday, will even take Scoob if it is back from Zen. Went last year, cracking day out.
  9. My son goes to school in Peterborough, so we are quite close, enjoy the subaru, looks like a nice one.
  10. I have used both Jap performance parts in Crawley www.japperformanceparts.co.uk gradea-subaru www.gradea-subaru.co.uk both extremely good, gradea sent me the front half or an impreza in a big crate. Would recommend both.
  11. Took mine to Zen Performance after my engine went bang. Settled for 2.5 litre converstion, lightened flywheel, new clutch and oil cooler. The cost just over £4000. Good luck with yours
  12. Mine went bang about this time last year, overtaking a Rover of all things. Completely blew a hole in my engine block. Zen Performance came to the rescue, new 2.5 litre engine and totally different performance, so much smoother and not overly expensive, although i did only show the wife the bill for the deposit and not the total rebuild cost. Good luck getting it fixed, i know it doesn't feel like an opportunity at the moment, but it can be.
  13. When Zen Performance fitted my new engine after blowing the last one to bits, i had to stay under 4000 revs for 1000 miles when they changed the running in oil for the proper stuff. I guess running it in is a pain, but why take the chance as the alternative is so god damn expensive.
  14. I have got Red Stuff pads : found them to be useless when cold so not a lot of use on the road, but on trackdays didn't fade at all. I have had them on the car 2 yrs and still not worn down (bugger). As for dust are actually ok, not to much to worry about.
  15. Hope this helps. There is a very good tint shop in Huntingdon, Cambs. Excellent chap can be contacted on 01480-454455. I have seen a lot of his work and is brilliant.
  16. Saw my first RB320 , looks and sounds awesome going along the road, what a car.
  17. Don't forget to post some pictures, so we can all dream about getting this level of spec
  18. Had lots of stuff from Scoobyparts - everytime extremely helpful and exceptionally quick service, will definately be popping in to the new site
  19. Was in Stratford end last night, never heard so much noise, looked like Utd were playing a local pub team. If that performance doesn't scare the rest i don't know what will. Been lucky last 2 matches i have been to have produced 14 goals and who said we need more excitement. Chelsea v Utd - FA Cup final Chelsea v Utd Premier league Chelsea v Utd Champions League final. How many players will each side left available to play after that lot?
  20. We have had sky+ for ages now - only one problem, it lets the wife record an entire season of ER and Ugly Betty, without the need to watch them until she feels ready, a real pain trying to fit in Engineering the World Rally and WRC. Children still argue over who's going to watch what, my daughters recorded stuff or Pokeman for my son. Until we get a television each, all with Sky, the house will never be at peace.
  21. I have got an 1994 JDM WRX, which came across with mega hard GAB suspension. I wanted to replace it and read that STi 5 suspension was perfect for Scoobies. Have now replaced with STi 5 suspension and for me the car is brilliant. I can recommend both japperformance and also Andy at Gradea-subaru, as i have dealt with both. Good luck with the mod.
