What a great turn out, looked good driving into a car park full of Scoobs Very informative meet. Was a pleasure to bounce and rattle, me not the car, all the way along the M8. Ever seen a man with no teeth eat a 3 course meal......... Have new car will travel Grant -
<< Chris, Grant,Wilky can we arrange a meeting to finalise arrangements to ensure a smooth running outing. Early next week would suit me? >> Early next week is also good for me Gumballs house as it between me and yourself, Davie and Wilky does not mind sticking some extra miles on the 22b Grant
-
Davie is your in car video available for public viewing I heard a rumour that they were wanting to stage a round of the WRC in Ireland. Grant
-
Oh good me and 2 locals in the middle of Ireland...........Break out the Guiness..... Grant Anyone seen the McRae DVD of the Mk2 in full Tarmac mode going for it at Killarny, cause thats what the roads are like between the stages.
-
Always good when you are mates with the chief organiser Some of the finest roads in the world Give me as much notice as possible, to book holidays from work and it is game on for Tarmac heaven Grant

I will say that i have supported all the RO's, apart from Ayrshire*, in thier chosen events that they organise Spooks, Billyboy and Jamie are doing a sterling job in the short time they have had thier respective posts and i think this is demonstrated by the strength of the turn outs at the respective meets/events. Grant *they dont like me and i am not too keen on them.

Not a negative flow of post as such but i just find it a bit galling that an idea is mooted that could have been a reality. Malky's original flyer was designed and proposed more than a year ago and the date on Imy's flyer was May. I can see the ScottishScoobies clothing range dieing a quick death soon. Six weeks until chrstmas and not a lot has been mentioned about the Santa Cruise to the the Sick Kids Hospital's. I will put a collection round my work for Yorkhill but i wont be as invovled as i was last year as it way too late for anything that was originally proposed to be followed through. Not having a dig at anyone on here but just my view on things and as a paid up member i am allowed to have a view on tings. When my renewal comes around i will NOT be renewing it as it does nothing for me being an import owner and my views or ideas are not listened to by the people that supposedly matter. Grant

Oh yes Just tell me how much for the ferry and accom and i am there. Whats the best fuel available on the Emerald Isle? Might be the Justy i have to take if 98.6 go go juice is not available Grant

Sometimes even attending a meet is not good enough but attending a meet in your local area is a good start There has been quite a few of "No dont do that there is something in the pipeline" and as Andy says We are still waiting for several things to appear but nothing, apart from trackdays at Knockhil, ever does. Personally i am dissappointed when the idea of arranging a Scottish Big One was knocked on the head as i was informed that the hierarchy were looking into something and a diary of events would be looked at for the year. This was 18 months ago and if the bull was taken by the horns we would have had our fist National meet/SBO uring the past summer. Malky's flyer was an excellent design and could have been adapted to either Regional or National use. With me paying for the printing, it would have cost the club not a penny but the idea was not pursued. Again, as Andy says, this has been over a year ago and if it was followed through with. The best we can hope for is the regular regional meets to continue on a monthly occurance and the occasional run in the country organised by the grass roots level. Still here and doing my own thing Grant

Ricey and Ally Understand where you are coming from but you are still a couple of ckeeky scamps Just spent a small fortune on Auto Glym products and will bloody well use them until the car is gleaming. Grant

<< Its a belter m8.It skips along nicely when you left my shop with the Texas ranger. BTW Did yous enjoy your meal.Blackcurrant chessecake with ice cream anybody!!! >> Loved the meal as per usual The cheesecake was awesome and will be back for some more soon Grant
-
I would say it looks unique but i would be lyeing. I know of a car with the exact same bodykit, except in white and different bonnet, and it is about 20 miles from my house Grant

<< Get those bloddy wheels cleaned!!!!! >> They are as clean as they are gonna get................ Still thinking of your suggestion and i am looking for a set of black alloys for her. I am waiting for a set of Volk racing alloys to become available Grant
-
<< nice pictures there !! should be awesome when its fully done and over 400bhp. >> You set the benchmark for us all to aim at...... Grant

<< 6.11 in the toyota Gt car as witnessed by wilky last night NOW 6.04 COME IN MR SQUIRREL. IM COMING >> and i thought you were just pleased to see me...... As i said my time is with 2 school boy errors in a manual gearbox, no driver aids scenario. Wait until i get the C9 and then i will move the finishing line a bit further up the road Gumball if you can beat my time i will donate £50 to Santa Cruise but only if you use manual and NO driver aids Grant

I first saw this car at Abington Services on the M74 when Matt as bringing it back home. When i first laid eyes on it i swore that would be my next car. Last month Matt informed me that it was for sale and it was mine if i wanted it. So here it is It is a WRX STI Version 2 Limited She has been fitted with the following list off modifications JUN 2.2 Stroker kit HKS Front mount Intercooler Large IHI Hybrid turbo HKS SSQV Blow off valve..............Gay and sounds like a bus GRex Oil cooler with remote filter pod HKS Super Power Flow Air Filter Full HKS Hiper exhaust system HKS Hipermax 2 coilovers Front STI Strut Brace Mid Bomex Strut brace Apexi rear Strut Brace HKS Twin Plate clutch and uprated flywheel Cusco plated rear diff APexi Power FC and Commander Blitz Dual Solenoid Boost Controller with 4 boost settings {0.7, 0.9, 1.2 and 1.5bar} Zerosports body kit comprising Bonnet {GRP}, Fr bumper, Rr bumper and Adjustable Spoiler Greddy oil and water temp meters Tomei Air to Fuel Ratio meter Greddy Boost meter Lightweight Advan RC alloys Nismo Uprated fuel pump and regulator HKS Dual Power Ign system Subaru 4pot calipers with uprated discs and pads All this on top of std STI Limited spec The car as it stands the now is a good as it comes but i need to do one or two things to make her bullet {Squirrel} proof. Small things like move a oil filter from its current location, which is right in front of the air filter, and get the geometery done at Extreme or Progrip Future plans are to increase the size of the injectors up to the 550/740 region and fit the TD05/06 20g that was recently purchased from Walker Texas ranger. It should break the 400hp barrier quite easily with the 2.2 and 20g strapped onto it. Thanks to the following people for helping me obtain such a vehicle Matt for introducing me to such a spendid example of a modified Impreza The lads at AWD in Perth for the last minute prep work to get her on the road. Jamie, HISOOB, for such fine workmanship when Matt had the car MORIMOTOSOUGOUJIMA CENTER CO LTD, the last owner in Japan for building a great car and the biggest thanks goes to Imy, micra_wrc, for helping me out when i needed it the most Grant
-
Gonna attack it next Saturday but it looks as if i can keep the cooler and reposition the filter away from the induction. Grant

Been a productive day all round Grant

I am heading up to see the Devil run up the strip. Not taking my car on the strip but purely there to spectate Grant

The bonnet is part of the Zerosports bodykit, made of GRP and lighter than the WRX bonnet but it does look strange without the scoop Grant
