  4. Picked up two massive stone chips on the same day when driving through the temporary muddy field left by some "son of the soil" on the road between Torphins and Lumphanan. Now, i have to ask myself is that bad luck or good luck? Bad 'cause it happened twice, or good 'cause they were both on the same screen?
  5. Black with black alloys turning into the new BP offices in Dyce, Aberdeen.
  6. I'm in Dyce and my mate is up in Altens. Will wait to see exactly where you guys are meeting up in Dundee and meet you all there - don't really know Dundee at all so hope it's somewhere easy to find
  7. 1. If your sidelights won't switch off look for the parking light switch on top of the steering column . 2.Use the search function on the forum before asking the same old question . 3. The best first mod for an impreza is the exhaust (backbox at least) 4. Buy a classic 5. Make sure you get regular quality oil / filter changes every 3 - 4000 miles 6. Always run the car on good quality fuel - V Power/BP Ultimate/Tesco 99 and add octane booster for safety in an unremapped import 7. Avoid "chip"ing an impreza - get it remapped by an expert like AndyForrest (Apexi for classics, ECUtek for newage) 8. Sell the Newage and buy a Classic 9. Always wait till the engine is nice and warm before giving it full pelt and let it cool down befrore switching it off 10. Upgrade your brakes before modding the engine 11. A VTA dumpvalve isnt really a good idea unless your car is getting remapped to compensate for it. It will momentarily make your car run rich as the ecu gives fuel for air which has been dumped and not recirculated. All you are missing is the gay noise. 12. Solid rear droplinks and a decent suspension geometry set-up are probably one of the best sub-£100 modifications you can do to a standard car. 13. new ages will undertseer when at the limit 14. If you have a classic get Strutt Braces. The improvement is outstanding! If you have a new age...no luck! loL! 15. Clean out the boost solenoid once in a while and dont fill engine oil right up to max. 16. Go to the SIDC track days at knockhill, you get free tuition from an instructor if you want (plus ensure you wear Cat boots far better that way!!!!) 17. Love every minute of driving and owning it (it will make handing over the credit card much easier 18. Goto meets/Knockhill/Crail and tell us who you are?We don't bite sometimes 20. Join the SIDC and you'll get discounts on insurance and dealer supplied parts in addition to track days. 19. For some obscure reason there is a lot of mention of goats & homosexuals in here. Do NOT let this put you off our forums. 99% of our members are "normal" but we are all fans of The Hoff. 20. Always prefill the oil filter when doing an oil change 21. Dont believe everything you read on the forums. 22. Send off for a Shell card 23. What ever BHP you get, you will never be happy 24. BLUE is the best colour. 25. Is your car standard? - leave it that way. 26. Watch out for the Impreza's "lift-off" oversteer. It's wicked, particularly on a wet Knockhill! 27. wave to other scoob drivers 28. never buy a set of lexus rear lights[+o(] 29. sidc love some photography of your beloved 30. dont sell your scoob you will regret it and will end up with another 1 31. The best place to hang out on saturday nights is at OSIDC 32. Modding is for MEN 33. Going JDM is for winners..........leave the chocolate UK's to the Willy Wonka lovers! 34.^^Andy speaks the truth, JDM is the way forward!! 35. K.I.S.S. Keep it simple stupid and don't mod what doesn't need modding (dump valves etc) 36.NEVER let the other half known how much youve spent on the car.she will be jelious! 37. Dont go to Halfords for your servicing parts - they are more likely to give you filters for a lada or skoda. 38. the bright button really does just make the clock brighter 39. Never believe anything read on Ebay 40. Never buy a impreza when you get 10 spare ST2 (spaceman) 41. CLASSIC ARE The GREATEST IMPREZA BUILT. 42. Try not run your impreza top end as the boxes dont last long(went through 3 last time) 43. Believe the petrol gauge - yes it does use that much!
  8. aye, sorry about that! The dirty car has still got to be the best one though. "Eh, excuse me sir, but do you know that your car is very dirty and that could be a danger to other road users"? Aye, well go tell farmer giles to clean up all the crap he leaves on the road when he crawls along with his trailer which has bald tyres, no lights and no number plate on it! If he did that i wouldn't be getting my second new windscreen fitted tomorrow!
  9. Will probably meet with you guys in Dundee as that would be easier. At the moment looks like myself in my RB and my maye in his 06 STi.
  10. Keep my job!! Get my oldest daughter back oh her feet after a really sh*tty split with her ex. Help the youngest daughter get through her 1st year at Uni. Go back to South Dakota in July for the Lakota Sioux Indian Sun Dance - wont beat last years one but has to be done! Keep the wife happy! Get more shinney bits for the RB.........
  11. Anyone from the Aberdeen area heading down to this? I was thinking about going and another guy from my work was thinking about it as well. Never ever made it to a meet as yet so this would be a good one!
  12. I think you're being a little unfair on the "Boys in Blue". We all know how busy they are setting up speed traps, checking speed cameras, stopping people for having dirty cars..............
  13. A refuse collector is going along a street picking up the wheelie bins And emptying them into his dustcart. He goes to one house where the bin Hasn't been left out, so he has a quick look for it, goes round the back Of the house, but still can't see it. So, against the rules of the Refuse collector's code but in the spirit of kindness, he knocks on the Door. There's no answer. Being a kindly and conscientious bloke, he knocks again - much harder. Eventually a Japanese bloke comes to the door. 'Harro!' says the Japanese chappie. 'Gidday, mate! Where's ya bin?' asks the collector 'I bin on toiret' explains the Japanese bloke, a bit perplexed. Realising the little foreign fellow had misunderstood him, the bin man Smiles and tries again. 'No mate, where's your dust bin?'. 'I dust been to toiret, I toll you!'' says the Japanese man - Still perplexed. 'Listen,' says the collector. 'You're misunderstanding me. Where's your *w h e e l I e* bin?' 'Ok. Ok ' replies the Japanese man with a sheepish grin. ' I wheelie bin havin sex wirra wife's sister.........!'
  14. I "touched" a goat when i was in Peru and had to marry it....................
  15. What's a dump valve? Is it something you fit to your ar*e?
  16. Cars should be confiscated and sold at auction and the money given to a deserving charity!!
  17. The Splitter on my RB320 gets scraped almost every day. The car park exit at the pub is a nightmare - not that i go to the pub every day of course
  18. My mate took a job overseas and sold his 58 plate STi with 5K miles on the clock for £17K.............boy was he sick!
  19. When i was a "young un" (at least 30 years ago!!) I had a Mini with a stonking 1300 MG engine in it and thought i was the man. Raced a mate of mine between Mintlaw and Old Deer (In the sticks in Aberdeenshire) in the pi**ing rain and was just keeping in front of him 'till I ran through this HUGE puddle. As there was no rubber gaitor around the gear lever the water came into the car through the hole in the floor with the power of a fire hose or "old Faithfull" at Yellowstone, hit the roof of the car and soaked us all and scared the brown stuff outa me!! Recently got whooped in my RB320 by a guy in a green W reg Wagon on the Newburgh to Cruden Bay road - left me for dead.............
  20. A couple of pics from China when i was there earlier this year.
  21. A couple of my beasts!! George the Rottie and Dhal the Collie / Russel.
  22. Aye for sure it was never going to compete in the acceleration stakes with much of anything, but i just found the whole experience a bit "clinical" if you know what i mean. It did exactly what it said on the tin.............. My mate has an M5 - now that's a whole new ball game...........
  23. I had a 525D M Sport, 55 plate and sold it to buy my RB320. Beemer was nice but so feckin boring!! I still have my flat cap and leather driving gloves if anyone wants them
  24. I've been bidding on both so hope to get one of them!!
